A boy and dad passion for action figures.

Saturday, May 26, 2018

Goodbye everyone!

For eight and a half years, Isaac and myself have shared with you our passion for fully jointed action figures. Thousands of posts, many conventions and lots of fun. But like all great things, it must come to an end.

It was an amazing ride from which we met many other collectors and discovered the joy of this community. We've decided to keep the blog online as we move on to other projects.

A few years ago, Isaac and myself started 1up2play. This is where we spend most of our time now as we share everything that we love about video games, yes even toys related. You are all welcomed into following us on our new journey.

We have a YouTube channel:
www.1up2play.com

We are also on Instagram:

And we are on Twitter:

Thank you.

Deadpool 2

Foul-mouthed mutant mercenary Wade Wilson (AKA. Deadpool), brings together a team of fellow mutant rogues to protect a young boy of supernatural abilities from the brutal, time-traveling mutant, Cable.

A good sequel that introduces some new and surprise characters with Domino's debut being my fav. Otherwise most jokes were anything but funny and relied too much on simply breaking the "fourth wall" rather than really bringing something meaningfull to the story.

Director: David Leitch
Running time: 119 minutes
Released: 2018

Deadpool

Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) is a former Special Forces operative who now works as a mercenary. His world comes crashing down when the evil Ajax tortures, disfigures and transforms him into Deadpool. The rogue experiment leaves Deadpool with accelerated healing powers and a twisted sense of humor.

Fast and funny, Marvel most unconventional anti-hero finally gets the big screen adaptation he deserves. Tons of easter eggs, blood and profanity.

Director: Tim Miller
Running time: 108 minutes
Released: 2016

Predator

An elite special forces team, led by 'Dutch' (Arnold Schwarzenegger), are on a mission to rescue hostages from guerrilla territory in Central America. Unbeknownst to the group, they are being hunted by a technologically advanced form of extraterrestrial life, the Predator.

Sci-fi meets survival horror in this extremely fun and testosterone filled classic.

Avengers Infinity War

The Avengers and their allies must be willing to sacrifice all in an attempt to defeat the powerful Thanos before his blitz of devastation and ruin puts an end to the universe.

An unprecedented cinematic journey ten years in the making and spanning the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. Personally, I wouldn't change a thing from the film. It delivers the goods on every levels. It follows the comics but adapt it to the MCU, bringing in some great surprises.

Directors: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo
Running time: 149 minutes
Released: 2018

Tomb Raider

We went to the cinema to see the new version of Tomb Raider. A more grounded reboot based on the latest series of video game. Alicia Vikander makes a good Lara Croft but everything in this film is rushed and simply feel like a set-up for possible sequels.

After a scary incident, they learn a story about a brave hero who stopped the rampage of a terrifying Pokémon long ago. Now, the threat that has been bottled up for years is in danger of breaking loose again! Can Ash help his new friend overcome the darkness within…or will a dangerous secret erupt into a clash of legends?

Black Panther

We went to see Black Panther on opening day.

A good but not great Marvel Cinematic Universe film that gets all its praise because it features a black superhero... even though it isn't the first one (remember Spawn, Blade and Hancock?). Surprisingly this is the most alt-right Marvel film. It is also the one with the most clichés and predictable plot twists but thankfully respect most of the elements from the original comics.

Team America: World Police

Popular Broadway actor Gary Johnston is recruited by the elite counter-terrorism organization Team America: World Police. As the world begins to crumble around him, he must battle with terrorists, celebrities and falling in love.

Braun Strowman is without a doubt one of the most over wrestler these days. We love him but finding the action figure is near impossible around here. Thankfully, Amazon received some so I quickly grabbed him. Fully articulate, nice paint and with the Wyatt family mask.
