Thoughts on 2015

So 2014 is done and now we're into 2015. Well I promised I would be positive and I'm going to keep that promise by pointing out many things I personally am and things that you all should be looking forward to. Consider these tips that if followed will bring you happiness, entertainment and material to talk about next time there's an awkward silence you need to break. This is me at my generous best, and you can thank me later.

I love movies! Movies can be exciting, creepy, fun, thrilling and sometimes all four! If you're anything like me then you love superhero films! Marvel have you covered on that score with Avengers: Age of Ultron and Ant-Man. Fox are also giving us something new with The Fantastic Four. Maybe you prefer science fiction films with dinosaurs in which case, Jurassic World will satisfy your prehistoric needs. If you like the long time ago feel of Jurassic World, but you want to go to a galaxy far, far away then the wait is finally over for Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. Maybe you prefer a different franchise entirely in which case there's Terminator: Genisys. Shall we move away from sci-fi? Try watching some action films like Mission: Impossible 5, London Has Fallen or Hitman: Agent 47 or Taken 3 (Liam Neeson will be killing people in those scenes). They're also remaking the classic action film Point Break Hell forget about them as Daniel Craig is James Bond again in Spectre (and if you know anything about the James Bond universe, you should be excited by this title and the fact that Christoph Waltz is in it). Maybe you like comedy instead. Ted 2 is coming out (I know comedy sequels usually disappoint, but I'm being positive here!) so is Minions! Wow, I've gone on quite a bit about movies. I'll leave it there, but rest assured, there's so much more out there!

I love TV Shows! I know, my life is boring you say, well I say it fucking well isn't! Not with a fifth season of Game of Thrones coming up! Here's a fact Game of Thrones fans may be interested in: Hafthor Bjornsson who played Ser Gregor "The Mountain" Clegane came 2nd in this year's World's Strongest Man, losing by half a point to a big and scary Lithuanian. If I'm not engrossed in the Game of Thrones drama, I'll be chilled to the core with the third season of Hannibal as Mads Mikkelsen gives his own take on the world's most polite and vile serial killer. If that doesn't appeal to you, try the political thriller House of Cards where Kevin Spacey gives a brilliant performance as the most evil politician ever (and that's saying something). I also like the Marvel Cinematic Universe so I welcome the arrival of Marvel's Agent Carter and Marvel's A.K.A. Jessica Jones. This goes without mentioning other TV Shows that need to finish the second halves of their seasons in 2015. Gotham Arrow and The Flash if you like DC's universe or Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. if you prefer Marvel's are both returning. There's The Walking Dead if you like a British actor pretending to be from Georgia while shooting zombies is also coming back.

I love Sport! Well not today after Chelsea fucking embarrassed themselves today, but normally I do. So what have we got in sports this year? Well there's Super Bowl XLIX. I love the Super Bowl because if nothing else it's an excuse to stay up until 5 in the morning (and I like American Football). Maybe you don't like American Football and you prefer Rugby. Well as well as the RBS Six Nations, this year also has the Rugby World Cup! It's been four years since England were poxed out by the bloody French and dammit we want to win this one! I also love Formula One (Lewis Hamilton!) and this year we will have the longest season ever with 21 races. There's also Fernando Alonso's return to McLaren, Sebastian Vettel's move to Ferrari and the reunion of McLaren and Honda (F1 historians will know what I mean). There are also seasons to finish in football, basketball and in whatever other sports you may follow.

I'm getting myself too excited, I think I'll stop here. I'll end by saying this. There are plenty of reasons to be excited for 2015!
