Battle of the Sequels: The Tolkien Saga.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Battle of the Sequels returns once again! This time we are focusing on two film series, a decade apart… we are calling it the ‘Tolkien Saga’.
 
This battle royale will pit the three Lord of the Rings films and the three Hobbit movies against each other to see which epic comes out on top!
 
Which movie will be the one true film?

In this feature, we want to shine a light on the artists who create those complementary artworks for the production companies. We have a stellar foursome for you…

Ever-evolving cinema: DVDs in decline.

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
In this series, I take a look at different forms of media that will either rival cinema, put cinema at risk or even decline itself because of cinema. Last time out, we looked at YouTube, this feature is on DVDs.
 
DVDs are an interesting topic nowadays, with the decline in sales mainly – but also how the collection of them has become an expensive hobby as streaming is now a cheaper alternative, but I’ll get to that. Let’s start with some facts…

Happy Birthday! 5 years of Cineroom

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
I’m in two minds here, whether the last five years have flown by or whether they have gone really slow and it feels like a decade. Either way, it’s been a blast.
 
I wanted to take five minutes to just acknowledge this personal milestone with Cineroom and how from the 1st June, we have been alive and well for 1,825 days. I want to share with you all some little titbits of the Cineroom journey…

*This is a monthly newspaper column
 
I am back again online this month as the glorious monthly Syston newspaper keeps isolating for the time being.
 
As usual, there is no cinema still so I will be diving onto Netflix to bring you some more recommendations for the month ahead. Hopefully you enjoyed the last column, and this can be your TV guide for June.

Acquire, hire or fire? (Taika Waititi)

 
Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
The golden oldie feature continues on Cineroom! Yes, it’s the revisit of the classic ‘Acquire, Hire of Fire’ feature – but this time with me!
 
How does it work I hear you ask? Well, if you Acquire a film, it means you love it. If you ‘Hire’ a film, it makes you like and would rent again; and of course, if you ‘Fire’ a film, you probably hate it.
 
I decided to choose the topic this time, so here is the ‘Taika Waititi’ edition…

Scenes & their soundtracks: Episode #2

 
Picture
Sometimes, films just stick with you. A lot of the time it’s a specific plot, or a cast member, or even a killer scene that is simply mesmerising.
 
This feature is inspired by those majestic scenes, but with more of a focus on soundtrack that gives the movie its finishing touch. This is the second episode in this music feature, and there’s another focus on a particular genre…
