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.

This game spawned a sequel and probably a spin off. I'm not sure myself since the both the spin off and the sequel both connect to this one differently. But I guess that would be a topic for another review. So buckle up cause this can get confusing. Also possible minor spoilers.

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.

McDonalds has always been my go to place for their delicious fries, ice coffee and my personal favorite strawberry ice cream. And I'd probably tried everything on their menu by now so I'm really excited for this Classic Milk tea McFloat and Wintermelon McFloat they have introduced.

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.

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.
