These powers won't necessarily be needed to act as a super hero, they could simply be thier to make your life easier. At the end of the each blog i will give a verdict on these abilities - Super? or Stupid? There have been a number of television shows that have explored the idea of teleportation. Mainly animations, but generally it's a power that we would...

Why Celebrities Annoy Me

This post is merely a recycled entry from my other blog. However, I feel like it is a lot more relevant on this blog, and also, it is still very relevant to my feelings on what still goes on in our celebrity feeled world. Enjoy. “A celebrity is a person who works hard all his life to become well known, then wears dark glasses to avoid being recognized” I think that with the end of Celebrity Big Brother, it is only fitting that I address the world of celebrities, and explain exactly what is wrong with it. We all love gossip, and hearing rumors...

New Facebook - A Step Too Far?

[If you enjoy this post, please check out my main blog for more updates and news on social media] Ever since Facebook launched its new design, there have been a number of complaints from its users. Of course, these are the same people that complain every time a change is made, yet they still stick with it. However, is their anger and frustration justified this time? After all, these weren't just minor tweaks to the layout, or a new look to the chat feature. Facebook has undergone a big makeover. A makeover that has once again made the experience...

The Inbetweeners Movie Review

The Inbetweeners has been a huge success ever since it debuted on E4 bck in 2008. It captured not only its target teen audience but also a huge number of adult viewers.

In the past we have seen many great tv shows suffer 'tv special syndrome' where the attempt of a full length feature falls flat on its face. Luckily, this transition was pulled off with great success, and many will view it as a fitting end. While...

Death of the Video Tape...How long until DVD's are next?

Well, it's safe to say RIP to the video tape. Over the year, video players have been disappearing across my university to make way for top quality DVD players. Let's face it, they've been dead for years now, nobody uses them anymore, at least not very often. Back home we still have a huge pile of video tapes of great films ranging from Disney classics like The Lion King and Jungle Book, to Eastenders videos and some wrestling ppvs. In a way they show a bit of our history and for people my age, they show our childhood. I remember the days before...

Super Speed is one of those powers that often gets mentioned when discussing what abilities we would love to have. I guess because it creates a sense of...
