Geekatana Top 10: Game of Thrones Characters
I
was planning to do this list right around the start of Season 8 but was kept
being put off due to schedule and other stuff but I guess better late than
never. This list is by no means definitive and is mostly folks that I think
made the show Game of Thrones what it is today. This is a mix list of good and
bad character of the show that pretty much made the backbone of what made the
show what it is.
Sadly with the show being so long and having a ton of great characters I'm
pretty sure a lot of your favorites won't make this list on one reason or
another it's simply that good of a series. Again if by some chance you haven't
watched the show yet you might want to turn away cause there will be spoilers.
You have been warned.

Geekatana Food Review: All 4 U Unlimited Grill and Shabu Shabu
Surprisingly
despite having eaten in one korean style restaurant or another I barely have
time to do a proper review of one on this Blog. In fact part of the reason was I
don't know which one should I review first. There's just simply way too much korean
styled resto to to do a review that it can be overwhelming at times specially
with my schedule.
Yet
if you ask me which one of these korean resto I often go to most only one name
pops into my mind and that would be All 4 U Unlimited Grill and Shabu Shabu. So
i've decided to do a review of that first since it's probably not in every ones
foodie radar unless you are really into korean grills. Plus I probably know
more detail about it by now.

Geekatana Movie Review: Aladdin (2019)
It
seems like a lot of Disney animated films are getting the live action treatment
these days. It all started back in 2010 with Alice in Wonderland followed by
Cinderella and Disney hasn't shown any signs of stopping any time soon. So fast
forward to present year 2019 and we now get to a live version adaptation of
Aladdin. I'm not much for fairy tale stories but Aladdin holds a special place
in my heart as it's one of my favorite Disney animated movies of all time.
Yes I'm
one of those folks who thinks that Aladdin is ok as it is and didn't need a
live action adaptation. The trailer was ok but not enough to make me excited
for the movie. In fact I'd probably went to see it just to compare it to the
animation one. And boy do I have a lot to say about it too. I'll try not to
spoil the story but this is a live action adaptation of Aladdin so there's probably not too much to spoil.

Geekatana Anime Review: Fate Stay Night
My
introduction to the Fate series back in 2006 was through a friend of mine and
being as I'm a fan of Tsukihime series I sort of jumped into this head first.
This was based on a visual novel by Type Moon after all. Although the visual
novel has three routes the first anime adaptation of the novel that came out in
2006 was based on the Fate route. The other two route being Unlimited Blade
Works and Heaven's Feel.
Since
Fate Stay Night was the first animated adaptation released I'd decided to
review this but I will compare this to the other two a little bit just so folks
know where this first one stacks up compared to the rest of the routes.

Geekatana Game Review: LEGO Marvel Superheroes
Being
both a LEGO fan and a comics fan I have played a number of comic related LEGO
games and I've had wanted to do a review of one for such a while now. Namely
cause I don't know which one I'll do first but I just said to the heck of it
all and started with the first one that popped into my mind and that is LEGO
Marvel Superheroes.

Geekatana Food Review: Classic Milk tea McFloat and Wintermelon McFloat
Milk
tea drinks has always been a guilty pleasure for me. I've probably tried most
of the well known Milk tea shops in the Metro and even some local not so well
known ones. On top of that I'm also a big fan of McDonald's. So when I found out
McDonalds is going to have a Milk Tea McFloat on their menu I know I have to
try it and make a review of it.

Geekatana Movie Review: Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Being
a kid growing up in the 80's I fancy myself as a TMNT fan watching it on television
every saturday morning regularly back in 1984 onwards. Then the first ever Batman
film came out two years later. Even back then it never in my wildest dreams I'm
going to see batman and the pizza loving turtles crossing path specially in a
full length movie feature. Then we fast forward to 2019 and we got Batman versus
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I could never be happier.
The
movie is loosely based on the comic book with the same title that came out back
in December 2015. I haven't read the comics yet but did some research on it
before writing this review so don't expect me to make too much comparisons on
the comics. Also probably some minor spoilers in this one.

Starwars Day 2019
Starwars
Day is an event celebrated yearly by Starwars fans worldwide with it falling
during the 4th of May yearly ...or what would Starwars fans would mostly call
it May the 4th going with the word play of "May the 4th be with You" making
a word play of the famous Starwars quote.
Being
a Starwars fan and Starwars cosplayer I wouldn't want to miss this for the
world so I grab my cosplay gear and headed to the venue for this once a year
event.

Geekatana Movie Review: Pokemon: Detective Pikachu
Video
game to movie films have a long line of bad reputation. Titles like Doom, Resident
Evil, Street Fighter and the likes entertaining as they have a tendency fail to
live up to the video game they are based upon so when a movie based on Pokemon comes
along you can't help but have low expectations. The trailer promising as it
seems isn't really that reassuring. And abomination of a trailer that was Sonic
the Hedgehog certainly isn't helping any either.
I
am not a fan of Pokemon and my knowledge of it stems from a few matches of
playing Pokemon Arena. Not to mention I can only name at the most five Pokemon
right on the top of my head. But still the trailer intrigued me enough to go
see it and I won't hold the movie down cause of my lack of Pokemon knowledge.

Geekatana Food Review: 8 Cuts Burger Blends
My
first experience with 8 Cuts Burger Blends is when my sister invited me to
lunch one weekday afternoon. I haven't written any food review on this Blog
simply cause I'm clearly no expert when it comes to describing taste and flavor.
But I guess one's got to learn to jump in the water first before one can learn
how to swim.
I
first encountered 8 Cuts Burger Blends when my sister invited me for lunch one
afternoon and recommended to try the place out. The place was crowded that we
have to settle for a seat outside so you can tell the place is really well
known by this time.
