Random Ramblin's 38 - The Phoenix Lifestyle

What's up? It's been a while since I have done a RR (random ramblin's) and to be more precise, it's been months?! 5 MONTHS!? OH MAI GAWD I NEED SUM MILK! 

What's new?

As you can see my postings have been somewhat irregular? Well the reason why that is as you should know by now is that I have been busy enjoying and living my life with my beautiful woman. She's been my rock since January and hell before that even like but January is the official start. She's been pushing me to do and try new things and I have. I aim to do and make more changes as time passes also but for now it's been all fun and games and laughs and smiles with us and I hope you've been enjoying life too! :)

I have not been writing here so much or on my Word program much at all really these past few months but i have been writing and not a lot is finished nor published yet but soon they will be just be prepared. I have been writing quite a bit in my notebook mind you so just to let you know all is well and things are on hiatus whilst i continue to actually enjoy living my life, which might sound or come across wrong but i feel for the longest time i have not lived and now i am so that's new. I am seeking suggestions for lists and top tens and anything you can shake a stick at so hit me up any time and i might get cracker lacking on the writing.

The reason behind the title is that i feel reborn like my life is not the same as it use to be and i hardly recognise my past life now so here i am risen out of the ashes like a Phoenix and may i burn brightly forever more.

Tv Watch List
The Flash, Izombie (final season), Gotham (final season), Game Of Thrones (final season), Big Bang Theory (final season). A lot of final seasons are going and ending this year. I am going through them slowly and i have been enjoying. Also me and my Mrs been watching dragonball again from the start so it's a hell of an adventure we have on our hands.

Movie Watch List & My Review Scores

Broly Review
Glass Review
Us Review
CLICK HERE TO SEE ALL THE FILMS I AM WATCHING THIS YEAR AND THE ONES I HAVE ALREADY WATCHED AND WHAT I THOUGHT OF THEM WITH RATING SCORES OUT OF 10.

John Wick 3 - Holy shit just when you think you have seen it all here comes Baba Yega with annother round of gun-fu lots of gun-fu. Dogs have a lot of bite. Characters and world building is amazing, i thoroughly enjoyed this hard hitting action flick. 8/10

Detective Pikachu - Although amazing in its cgi and visuals the story and characters fall rather flat and you can easily figure out whos bad and good and whats going to happen before it happens in this film so thats a bit disappointing but its humorous and it's largely upheld thanks to Ryan and Justice and their relationship and chemistry and Ryan does practically carry the entire movie i would say with ease but i enjoyed i wish i had this film when i was a kid. 7/10

Games

Spyro 1 is done but 2 and 3 are yet to have been started.
I got life is strange season 2 to begin aswell.

Fortnite as ever changes every season and it always has ups and downs but with a friend or two i still have an immense amount of fun playing it.

I have finished Walking dead the final season it was an emotional tense rollercoaster i enjoyed every minute of.

I am currently playing Animal crossing new lead on 3ds.
I am dying to play MK 11 and A Way Out.

Music
Slipknot are back with a new album coming soon aswell as new song called Unsainted which is a heavy hitter and displays the bands new album sound or a taste of it aswell as revealing the members new masks because here we are in the new era of the Knot. I love it and all out life is also a banger but apparently is not featured on the new album, strange that. Unsainted = 9/10

Serj Godzilla cover song is brilliant 9/10.

Taylor Swift has returned with Me! - A catchy colourful video featuring a brilliant collaboration with Brendan Urie of Panic At The Disco fame. Me = 7/10

Jonas Bros have resurfaced with 2 new songs and a new album on the way and Sucker is catchy and Cool is just bad. Sucker = 7/10

NEWS
So breaking news is that WWE has suspended their contract with sky sports and are moving to BT sports. 30 years of sky sports wwe is over.

I'd like to end my post with something my honey told me: "I can't improve on what's already there, that's you, yourself and you are everything". Thanks Honey and for being so supportive of me and everything i have done and do. I am so lucky to have her so grateful to have her in my life by my side supporting me through everything, I am always there for her 24/7 she is the best honestly.

Top 10 Wrestlemania Entrances!

It's that time of the year WRESTLEMANIA BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Although Mania has been and gone let's reflect upon some of the best entrances. Let's list up all the best entrances i have seen up to now from the grandest stage of them all!

RULES: 1 ENTRANCE PER MANIA AND 1 ENTRANCE PER WRESTLER! So this will be tough as HHH has so many great entrances and some others but here we go.

10: Shawn Michaels - WM 12

This was so unique and cool HBK jut descending from atop the arena it's one that stands out among the legendary entrances we have seen over the 35 years of mania. 

9: Bray Wyatt - WM 30

Who do you voodoo when Bray Wyatt enters the arena with weird creepy voodo dancing followed by a band of plague doctors playing his theme song. Certainly unique and a fave of mine for the creepy character. 

8: Shinsuke Nakamura - WM 34

A most glorious entrance here which is metal as fuck with Nita Strauss performing aswell as a butt load of violinists to play out The King Of Strong Style himself as the crowd also chants along with the song simply epic. 

7: The New Day -  WM 32

Supersized booty-o's containing saiyan armoured new day? Well it's on this list it's pretty darn sweet to see DBZ and WWE together and i love it, it's something else. 

6: The Undertaker - WM 19

Keep the list on rollin baybeeeeee with American Badass himself being played out by Bizkit. 

5: Stone Cold Steve Austin - WM 13

It's Austin's turn to enter the list, the words "Austin 3:16" appeared on the screen before smashing in sync with his legendary entrance theme. What happened next was arguably the greatest match in WWE history, granting his swagger even more significance.

4: Rusev - WM 31

He came out on a tank played by the national anthem of russia so you know it's a good one!

3: CM Punk - WM29

The final WrestleMania appearance for CM Punk, who would be gone from the company by the time the PPV's next installment rolled into town, and what a way to go out as he took on The Undertaker. Arguably the WWE's standout performer in the two years heading into WrestleMania 29. Living Colour, blasted its most notable song, "Cult of Personality," to the live crowd in New Jersey as it showed appreciation for Punk's suitable entrance music. 

2: Hardy Boyz - WM 33

All was normal in this mania until New Day came and said there's going to be another team in the tag match and it was all so suspenseful until the Hardy's music hit and the place and myself errupted in sheer joy to see an old fave tag team back in the WWE on the grandest stage of them all.  

1: Triple H - WM 21

Metal and epic as fuck HHH has the best entrances no doubt about it on the grandest stage of them all he is the grandest of them all and this time MotorHead played him out was epic. Emerging in the middle of the band whilst they played HHH rose up, spat some water out and went to work.

And that's my list, did any of your faves make the cut? If not comment and let me know your faves. 

Til next time, stay shiny!

US - Movie Review

Get in your jumpsuits and let's tether together because you're about to see double as I review US!

 Us is just a tense thriller from the mind of Jordan Peele a very good interesting film with well acted cast, good script, good comedic moments that don't ruin the tone of the film. creepy as fuck music and visuals to boot. 

Us tell's the story of a family on vacation accompanied by her husband, son and daughter, Adelaide Wilson returns to the beachfront home where she grew up as a child. Haunted by a traumatic experience from the past, Adelaide grows increasingly concerned that something bad is going to happen. Her worst fears soon become a reality when four masked strangers descend upon the house, forcing the Wilsons into a fight for survival. When the masks come off, the family is horrified to learn that each attacker takes the appearance of one of them. It's a thrilling and tense watch despite it's logistical flaws and predictable outcome. 

Peele channels his inner M Knight Shamalan in his new outing simply put. The soundtrack and many moments of the film early on inspire such dread, it gets so tense it's great. 

Us was really good, better than get out but equally as confusing and creepy but my god, soundtrack, acting and story are all really good like and for that i gave US.

8/10

"Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them."

My Top 10 Wrestling Entrance Themes (I'd use if i was a pro wrestler)

So for a bit of fun being as I love both wrestling and music, what 10 song's would I use as an entrance theme? Ever wondered what you'd walk out to?

I'll attempt to name 10 and try to deliver what i'd do for the entrance and if i'd be a good guy with that theme or a bad guy. It's going to be a short but fun list. I want you to do your own too! So let's have some fun and let's play this game! One song per band/artist too just to make thing's have more variety :D

10: Scum Of The Earth - Rob Zombie. 

So i'd be a bad guy with this and just in your face heel but disrespectful to and spit at the floor near people and do a bit of headbanging when i get in the ring. You want an autograph sure i'll sign a picture for ohh no I've torn it up what a shame you lose kid. "Hey, I'm breathing, Hey, I'm bleeding, Hey, I'm screaming, Scum of the earth, COME ON!"

9: Up Around The Bend - CCR. 

Face i'd be a fun time guy, dancing singing interacting with audience dancing with them, moving to the groovin around the bend you know. "Come on the risin' wind, We're goin' up around the bend"

8: Walk - Pantera. 

I'd be a tweener i could use this as both heel and face just a simple badass stroll to the ring. You can't be something you're not, Be yourself by yourself, Stay away from me, A lesson learned in life, Known from the dawn of time".

7: I Will Be Heard - Hatebreed. 

Heel disrespectful in your face aggression entrance. "NOW IS THE TIME, FOR ME TO RISE TO MY FEET!"

6: Square Hammer - Ghost. 

Darkness with lights flashing green as the music kicks in i arrive onto the stage corpse face painted and in long black flowing robes, walking holding an urn to the ring and which when i take a lid off it projects a demon in the middle of the ring as i take off my robe and then i put the urn lid back on and all lights are on as normal and i am ready to go. "Still you call on me for entrance to the shrine
Hammering the nails, Into a sacred coffin, You call on me for powers clandestine".

5: Personal Jesus - Depeche Mode

A pastor like character who is a heel he believes he is holier than thou. "Reach out and touch faith!"

4: It's My Life - Bon Jovi. 

Entrance similar to Jericho's but with led jacket saying its my life scrolled across the back and on my shades. Face entrance happy party have fun. "Luck ain't enough, You've got to make your own breaks, It's my life, And it's now or never".

3: Boom Boom Boom Boom - Vengaboys
Proper face happy dance time to get a great fun atmosphere going with the crowd with a classic slice of cheesy partying tune.

2: Indestructible - Disturbed. 

Sirens blare the lights blaze flashing blue as a spot light goes all around the arena and then it kicks in as i exit through the curtain with a hood over my head. Slowly looking round making my way to the ring. A bit of a tweener this one too. When i get to the ring ropes i pull of my hood revealing my face and get in the ring flexing when it says "indestructible master of war".

1: Wherever I May Roam - Metallica.

Start in darkness with smoke covering and soon as we hit the drums the lights flicker to the beat and we get to the 50 second mark of the song and out i come beating my chest to the beat. I'd encourage others to join in and be a face with this song, singing this song as i walk to the ring and around the ring as the lyrics echo "call me what you will" i will be in the ring and the lights will all light up and the smoke will stop.

So that's my list and i'm sticking to it, for now at least, this has been fun, love to hear yours :D

Stay shiny!
