Do you remember a while ago when I shared with you all the news of a new film called The House With A Clock In Its Walls? Well, today the film has released the first full trailer for it and it looks very exciting.
And how are we all today on this fine sunny Friday? Well, I hope! I am here to present you all with a fun weekend starter pack full of new clips and teasers from the world of TV and film!
So, sit back, relax and enjoy this new footage from Mortal Engines and more, as we head into the weekend…
Who else loves Cher? When I was little I used to dance around my house to her, singing along to Believe so loud that my neighbours once said something to my mum aha! I still love her to this day, but the singing has been restricted to parties and car journeys now.
However, it may have to be broken out again, because I am super excited to see her in the upcoming Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again feature, as she looks so cool…
I see a little silhouette of a man or woman in this case, because the upcoming film, Bohemian Rhapsody has an amazing opportunity available for us all! One that could see you being featured within it.
Ahead of its release, the film is giving us all the chance to sing in the film by singing along to Bohemian Rhapsody and submitting it to the team behind the feature. How amazing is this lovelies?!?
Earlier on I mentioned the fact that I am hosting a BBQ this weekend with my family and as someone who eats healthy I am going a little mad about what I can make. However, eating healthy doesn’t have to be challenging.
And Disney UK knows this, which is why they are recruiting some of the best Disney characters to help us all complete their 24-hour challenge. Snacks at the ready for this lovelies…
Happy Thursday to you all! We only have to get through today and we will finally have reached the weekend! Something I am very much looking forward to aha! Lie-ins, BBQs and love is what I am going to be enjoying this Saturday and I can’t wait.
To help pass the time until then, I have loads of new clips for you to enjoy from Netflix, including a sneak peek from their new original film, Set It Up and more. Enjoy…
It may only be a Wednesday lovelies, but I wanted to spread some mid-week joy with a brand-new competition for you all to get involved with!

Firstly, I want to start by saying sorry for the lack of posts yesterday. We had some terrible family news and I wanted to spend the day with my mum to make sure she was okay. We are getting through it and I am so thankful for all the love we have had.
Over the past day or so, a large number of clips and teasers were released and I wanted to share them with you all before even more are released aha! So, sit back and enjoy lovelies…
Comedies are very close to topping my must watch film posters. If a film can make me laugh, I am all for it. There so, when I was asked if I wanted to celebrate some of the best alongside Warner Bros Game Night, I couldn’t stop myself from saying yes!
From family adventures to drunken mistakes, there is a comedy for everyone and this feature shows the most chaotic ones. I will admit that I did not write this lovelies, as I want the writer to have the credit, but it is super fun and gives you a key watch list for comedies out there.
So, get ready to laugh lovelies, because these chaotic comedies are not to be missed…
Laugh till your belly can’t take any more with comedies that begin on the straight and narrow before descending towards madness. From road trips where one thing goes wrong after another, to the outrageous events during a night out! To celebrate the release of the completely chaotic, Game Night on Digital Download on June 25 and on Blu-ray and DVD on July 2, we’re taking a look at some of the silver screen’s craziest comedies…
We’re The Millers: When small-time pot dealer David is robbed, he finds himself forming a fake family as a ploy to carry out his boss’s requests of importing a huge shipment of weed across the Mexico-US border… in a campervan. Alongside Rose, his broke-stripper neighbour and two local teenagers, they pose as the perfect family to try and pull off the ultimate drug smuggle. But they soon find themselves in deep as the lies stack up and things get out of control.
The Hangover: When three friends wake up from a bachelor party in Las Vegas with no memory of the previous nights and the bachelor is missing, they must make their way around sin city in order to find their friend before his big day… The crazy search takes them on a wild goose chase that only sees things go from bad to worse when they wake up to discover they’ve stolen Mike Tyson’s tiger, one of them has lost a tooth and they find themselves looking after a baby.
Vacation: Nothing goes right when a family heads off on a road trip to ‘Walley World’, led by the father, Rusty Griswold with the aim of spicing things up with his wife and reconnecting with his sons. The reboot of National Lampoon’s Vacation sees the catastrophes unravel as they smash into a cow, accidentally bathe in excrement and set their GPS to scream at them in Korean. It is the literal, road-trip from hell but at least it brings the family back together?
Bridesmaids: Kristen Wiig plays Annie, the maid of honour whose life unravels in a dramatic manner as she tries to out-friend one of the other bridesmaids of her best friend. This outrageous comedy sees Annie’s attempts to be the ultimate best friend and ‘best woman’. From in-flight disasters to wedding dress nightmares, everything gets a bit out of hand on the road to the wedding day.
Identity Thief: Even better than a coupon queen, Diana lives a life of luxury under the stolen identity of Sandy Patterson, an unsuspecting guy from Denver. When Sandy discovers his identity has been stolen, he has just one week to track the thief down. Taking matters into his own hands before his world implodes sees Sandy travelling across the country to confront the con artist. However, things aren’t that simple when he discovers Diana has been committing crimes in his name and things go from bad to worse while trying to clear his name.
Game Night: From cheese and wine to solving a real-life kidnapping case, in Game Night, what starts as a group of friends weekly evening of fun quickly turns into more than just playing a murder mystery game… Max (Jason Bateman) and Annie (Rachel McAdams) find themselves sucked into a game night that is taken to the next level as Max’s brother is kidnapped and the teams have to come together to save him. The gamers must be prepared for the ultimate evening as twists and turns take them towards the unexpected.
Game Night is out on Digital Download today and on Blu-ray and DVD from the 2nd lovelies!
Happy Monday! I want to start by saying that I may be a little bit slower at blog posts this week, as I have a serious family matter going on at home at the moment. But, I hope to be here every day and with tons of new content!
Starting with the Monday morning round-up of all the new clips and teasers that were released over the weekend. So, kick back and enjoy lovelies…
When you hear that Ruth Wilson is in something, you can kind of guess that it is going to be great viewing! And Clio Barnard’s, Dark River, does not disappoint.
Playing a woman coming to turns with the death of her father, Wilson captures the character of Alice trying to regain control of the family farm and her relationship with he long lost brother.
A true British kitchen sink drama made in a modern setting, Wilson and Barnard join together to make a power feature that should have been promoted more. It is a gripping watch, which compels you as an audience member from the get-go. It is like a TV drama so good you know it is going to be a binge fest.
Also starring Sean Bean, the film is full of the best British talent and all work hard to bring to life the gripping story. There is no character who you prefer more or think about more, they all just click together and work.
It is a clever feature from Barnard, which when seen by more will reach the eyes and ears of others all over. Leading to a hopelessly endless amount of praise, which begins here as I am giving it...
Western films have always been a special feature to make. When they work, they truly work and a character, actor and story is born that others strive to redo. If it fails, then there is no hope for many who hope to do the same for a few years. In the Complete Sartana collection, the premise has definitely been influenced, but it works.
Made up of the five feature films that ruled the screen, the films introduce the world to a series of spaghetti westerns following the life of the infamous character Sartana and his merry men. Together, they join forces to take down their enemies and play the perfect anti-heroes.
The films are a great base to show future filmmakers how much influences can impact a feature. But in a good way. Whilst the last few in the series are not the best, those that came at the start have a strong Clint Eastwood feel to them that works perfectly with what the characters in Sartana’s world are trying to achieve. Imperfect perfections.
Easy viewing on a Sunday afternoon, if you are looking for a cult classic to get lost in then this series is the one for you. And if you aren’t sure yet what to get your Dad for his birthday or even Christmas, it would make the perfect present too, as it has that charm of a John Wayne feature he would love.
For many of us, vampires have changed in recent years. From Twilight to The Vampire Diaries, the world has made vampires a little bit softer than they once were. However, with the re-release of The Addiction, things are about to change.
Starring Christopher Walken, Lili Taylor and Annabella Sciorra, the black and white feature tackles a mixture of 90s slasher features with low key elements that make this a cult hit. When a young woman is taken on her way home and bit, she faces a new life. One that she isn’t quite prepared for.
Whilst it is easy to guess where the film will go, with such familiar faces and the idea that this was one of the first vampire thrillers on the circuit it remains fresh and entertaining. The added eerie vibe of the black and white footage creates a classic nature that is used now to make others see how much of a vital feature it was.
Walken and co know how to make their characters pop and as a bunch of vampires they make sure that they are what were once terrifying figures. Biting animals isn’t really a thing they do in this feature lovelies.
There so, if you are looking for a classic 90s film with vampires, turn your attention to this one in the future. With wit, scares and close-ups to rival other 90s hits, this is the one for you if you are a cult or horror film fan, which is why I am giving it…
As many of you know I adore everything to do with Queer Eye! I can easily sit and binge watch the episodes and find myself falling under the spell of each one. So, when the boys and Netflix announced a sneaky new episode, I shouted YASSS!!!
Something that is quite ironic when you discover where they are in this new YouTube episode…
Are you ready for some exciting new footage now from Ant-Man and The Wasp? With only a few weeks to go until we get our next Marvel adventure, they are really teasing us with what and how Ant-Man may finally leave his Infinity War mark.
Who else is excited that it is Friday? I could honestly host a party with the excitement I have for the lie in I am going to have tomorrow aha! Who is with me on this one?
Friday afternoons are the perfect time lovelies to share these new clips, teasers and trailers to help us start the weekend early! Enjoy lovelies…
And how are we all today? I am not sure how much I will be blogging today as it is my favourite lady’s birthday today! Yep, my mum is turning 56 and I plan to party aha!
However, before I dash off to celebrate, I have a few blog posts to share with you all. Starting with this one, which has loads of new clips and treats for you to enjoy, from the likes of Netflix’s Nailed It and more. Take a look below…
A few years ago, Rocky Balboa returned in what many of us thought was his final journey. However, he is now back and joining Michael B. Jordan, Tessa Thompson and an all-star cast again to bring us Creed II.
Directed by Steven Caple Jr. and written by Stallone, the film follows Adonis Creed as he comes face to face with the biggest challenge of his life. Learning to deal with personal matters whilst training for his next fight against someone who has family ties, he relies on Rocky to help him. Working side by side, they question what is really worth the fight and it all comes down to family. All leading to them rediscovering what really makes a champion.
The film is due out on the 30th November lovelies, but you can watch the first trailer for it below:
Firstly, I want to say a massive apology for not posting yesterday. For the past couple of days my anxiety has been off the charts and today I am going to try and conquer it and return!
After missing out on so much yesterday, I have loads of new clips, teasers and trailers for you all to enjoy. Check them out below lovelies:
It isn’t long now until we get to see The Incredibles 2 and I am beyond excited! I have loved these superheroes since I was little and to welcome them back into my life has got me bouncing around the house.
Whenever Disney release new clips, I could just scream with happiness. But, I will hold it all in right now to give you all this brand-new teaser…
I swear Monday is the devil’s day because they always leave me feeling so tired and longing for my bed. Who else is with? To help get us through this lovelies, I have some exciting new clips for us to enjoy!
With less than a month to go until I pack up my troubles and head off to France to celebrate my birthday, I have finally begun getting everything in place for the trip. This includes buying a new wardrobe, sun hat and the all-important sun creams - must-have essential.
From the moment I was born, I was always very lucky to have got my dad’s Italian genes in me, which led to a gorgeous brown tan. However, after having pneumonia, I am lucky if I even go a hint of pink! That doesn’t mean though that I don’t still protect my skin. In fact, I take even more care now than I did before.
I’m not really one to wear fake tan - I know I will streak it or it will go wrong - but I do love to try new products to try and get that film star glow. There so, when I saw Garnier Ambre Solaire’s new sun care collection, I knew I had to give it a go.
With a great new before and after range, the Garnier team are making sure that our skin is kept safe this year. Starting with a new water-based spray, which offers a UV protection of 30, but is a lot lighter on your skin. Before applying, the bottle instructs that you shake it up. This is to mix the water and essential oils together to make the perfect combination. You will know when you have shaken it enough, as the mixture goes cloudy. You can then simply spray, rub in and stay safe.
This was a really simple product to use and I found that it actually helped me to save time when getting ready, without lacking on how much I needed to use. My skin also felt a lot softer and my mum and I both agreed that it had a gorgeous smell that lasted.
Once we had prepped our skin for the sun, I then applied the new skin patch that Garnier is offering for free on their bottles. A bit like a small plaster, the sticker rests on your skin and lets you know through colour changes when you need to reapply sun cream - even when you are in water. Lasting for only one day, these are an absolutely amazing invention and I hope that they bring them out to buy, to be honest. It is so easy to forget when you are having a good time to put on lotion, but these simple reminders help make sure you are always checking in. Dreaded burns be gone!
The final treat I received was one that would be perfect for all to use after a day of sun. Our faces are often the most damaged areas of our body, with sunbathing and skin damage hitting it from all angles. Hoping to prevent some of that lasting nastiness is there new face mask, which has enough moisture in it to soothe you in one sitting instead of five. Time-saving, soothing and splendid all at once. I kept this one until a Friday night, as I wanted to pamper myself after walking home and travelling all week for work.
Let me start by telling you all that this mask is a thing of beauty. I am already looking into buying more for my holiday. Completely soft on my face, which suffers a lot due to cystic acne (when it happens I could cry), this left my skin feeling cool and better than it has in a long time.
I don’t think I would keep these just for being after a day in the sun in fact, but as a regular pamper treat. Out of everything I tried this was my favourite and a top tip I have for you is to put it in the fridge for extra coolness.
After trying all of these treats, I officially felt ready to take on my holiday and I now can’t wait to hit the beach with all this added protection. Garnier, you little beauties!
Every day I wear my watch with pride! Having wanted a Fitbit for a long time, my mum treated me for my birthday last year and I haven’t taken it off since. The convenience of seeing how my sleep, workout and fitness levels are is very important to me and this does all that so easily.
However, there is one downside to my watch. It doesn’t look amazing on a night out and often bulls out in pictures or nice shots I grab. And the straps can be quite expensive at times to buy. There so, when I was sent an amazing email from Adexe Watches, I couldn’t wait to see what they had in their store.
Full of beautiful timeless pieces, the watches were stylish and perfect for a night out or special occasion. After spending a little while looking at them, the team behind the creations kindly sent me my favourite – the Meek Grande in rose gold - and I love it! As a huge rose gold fan, this beautiful design came with a black face that really makes it pop! And for only £109, it is super affordable, whilst looking like it costs so much more!
Removing my other watch, I instantly knew that this was going to be the piece that sees me through my holiday, nights out and summer events. All due to its colour, lightweight feel and beauty.
Whilst trying on the watch, I began to think about the watches in TV shows and films that had influenced my love of them. And so, I decided to gather some of the most stylish on-screen pieces that you can now wear with these great pieces by Adexe.
Tick tock, don’t let these watches stop...
Rachel, Suits:Owning this gold design, Rachel Zane is never without her amazing gold watch, which stands out in every scene. You can find a similar one on the Adexe website, with this Meek Grande Gold one standing out as the perfect match.
Ana, Fifty Shades Franchise: Since the first film, Ana has had some very stylish looks and this watch is one accessory we should all be looking to for inspiration. Adexe has one just like it with their They Grande design.
Abi, What We Did On Our Holiday: This white watch isn’t something you may be expecting, but they can be super stylish. Both this one in the film and this amazing marshmallow pink and white one would look amazing this summer.
Cal, Crazy, Stupid Love: Never one to leave Ryan Gosling out of anything, his watch in this film is a scene stealer with its brown touch. I found this Adexe one, which is very close to being a perfect match. Much like me and Ryan!
Eggsy, Kingsman: The Secret Service: With such amazing suits, of course, the team are going to have amazing watches to match. Team your spy outfit with this very similar style and you will soon be a member of The Kingsman too.

You will soon be matching your favourite film characters in no time!
I will start this review by saying that I have never seen the film, starring Russell Crowe, in which this new series is based on. However, after doing some hefty research, I discovered that Romper Stomper series 1 will keep all fans entertained.
With returning and new faces featuring, each episode into the crazy new world of the white supremacists running amok in Australia. Focusing on the young Kane, it shows the thoughts, actions and feelings that his crew goes through.
Each moment is tough to watch. In a world where conflict is still high, it is a modern-day series that will get audiences thinking. In a clever plot twist, it highlights a deeper and newer world that some viewers will never have seen before.
Yet, if anything it will leave you angrier than anything else you are watching. There is so much hatred that you find that after about three episodes you don’t want to watch anymore. In fact, you want the characters to give up.
It is these emotions that lead the way and make it prime TV, for its thought-provoking messages. However, only time will tell if viewers think it is as good as the film. There so, I am giving it...
We have made it through another week, Friday is finally here and to celebrate I have a brand-new competition for you all to enjoy!
