WE LIKE TO WATCH: EPISODE THREE - CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR

Image
Episode 3!  Stu and I are this week discussing the next film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain America: Civil War.  This film is the first of Phase 3 of Marvel's Cinematic Universe and it's set the stage for some exciting plans going forward. It's fair to say we couldn't really discuss this film without talking candidly about everything in it, so a SPOILER WARNING before you listen. As always it would make our day if you could take a couple of minutes to rate and reviews us on iTunes or drop us some feedback below! Really keen to have your input in the show. Enjoy! -Billy                                       Get it from Podomatic  here                                             Get it from Itunes  here

WE LIKE TO WATCH: EPISODE TWO - SHERPA

Episode 2! Someone liked our Pilot and we've been issued to make more episodes to make!  Stu and I are at Dendy Newtown this week to watch Sherpa, a documentary film from Australian filmmaker Jennifer Peedom.  Sherpa focuses on Phurba Tashi, a Sherpa who having made 21 Mount Everest ascents already, intends to lead the team for New Zealander Russell Brice's expedition company, Himex. It is set during the 2014 Mount Everest ice avalanche. As usual a profanity warning as our movie discussions can get heated and emotive. As always it would make our day if you could take a couple of minutes to rate and reviews us on iTunes or drop us some feedback below! Really keen to have your input in the show.

BRAND NEW PODCAST! That's right guys Stu and I are helming a second podcast now called "We Like to Watch".  Stu and I are big fans of heading to the movies.

As well as talking about the film we watched we will be discussing all thing Movies, TV, and everything in between! This week is our Pilot episode, so have listen as we watch The Boss and then discuss it and all the latest in movie news. Also a profanity warning as well as our movie discussions can get heated and emotive.

David Attenborough's virtual reality experiences come to the Australian Museum!

A lot of people are getting excited about VR, and rightly so. With the first wave of consumer grade headsets hitting shelves, after much waiting it looks like 2016 will finally be the year of VR. With all this VR hype being thrown at us by the gaming industry it's easy to forget about all the other exciting applications this new technology has to offer, such as educational applications. This is where David Attenborough, the man that introduced so many of us to the wonders of the natural world, comes in. The world famous naturalist, who turns 90 this year, has teamed up with Alchemy VR to create two breathtaking VR experiences, which is pretty amazing considering I am yet to convince my grandfather to touch a computer.  'David Attenborough's Great Barrier Reef Dive VR' and ' David Attenborough's first life VR' represent the fruits of this collaboration and from the 8th of April they will be available for the public to see at the Australian Museum.

The following section, concerning the pre-release was published on March 3rd 2016, and is reproduced here in its entirety. An updated section for the final version of the game follows at the end of this review. ---  PRE-RELEASE: THE SHORT VERSION 'I may be but small, but I shall die a colossus.' - Lord of Cinder. Dark Souls III is everything you could be wanting from a From Software game. It balances the tonal feel of the first game, the better player orientation of the second , and the faster combat of Bloodborne . It is, in every sense, a From Software "Best Of Gameplay", a number of excellent factors struck through with an enticing plot, sumptuous visuals and killer sound design. Sounds perfect, right? Well, maybe, but only if you're a certain kind of person. We'll get to that. STORY What little narrative is given at the outset is f
