Cinema Experience – ‘Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

For my birthday last Wednesday, I went to see a re-release of ‘Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace’ at Showcase Cinema in Nantgarw. It’s amazing to think that it’s been 25 years since the release of that movie in 1999 and it’s amazing it’s been able to get a limited re-release at cinemas. 🙂 Continue reading

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Mayday, Mayday, Mayday!

Yes, as it’s Early May Bank Holiday Monday in the first week of May today, it’s time for me to share something special with you. After handling ‘The Nyssa Challenge’ of ‘Doctor Who’ reviews for my Easter review season this year, I went into revisiting the ‘Timeslip’ TV series and the first two Big Finish audio stories, which I reviewed and shared on Christmas Day in December 2020.

Quick ‘Ghostbusters’ Movie Reviews

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

I’ve been able to see all of the ‘Ghostbusters’ films on BBC iPlayer these past two weeks, especially in revisiting ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ at the cinema in Leicester recently. Since I’ve reviewed that and the original ‘Ghostbusters’ film, it’s fair I share my thoughts on the rest of this movie series. Continue reading

The ‘Homeward Bound’ Movies

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

I’ve recently seen the two ‘Homeward Bound’ movies on Disney+. These are movies that I used to enjoy seeing as a kid. I recall the first film more than the second, but it’s been great to check out these movies with more clarity and it has been fun to see the adventures of two dogs and a cat getting home.

Quick DVD Review – ‘Partners In Crime’ (1983-84)

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

So, back in 2022, I did a quick review on the 2015 BBC TV adaptation of ‘Partners In Crime’, featuring Agatha Christie‘s less well-known characters in crime English literature – Tommy and Tuppence – played by David Walliams and Jessica Raine. I enjoyed checking out that short-lived six-part TV series. Continue reading

Quick Movie Review – ‘Ghostbusters’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Last month, I checked out the recent ‘Ghostbusters’ film at the cinema called ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’. Thus, it made sense for me to check out the original 1984 film ‘Ghostbusters’, starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson. I’m very pleased I’ve seen this film at last. 🙂 Continue reading

Quick Movie Review – ‘Mary Poppins’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

On Easter Tuesday this week, my parents and I went to see a re-release of ‘Mary Poppins’ at the cinema. I greatly enjoyed watching this film on the big screen. I used to see ‘Mary Poppins’ when I was a kid in the 1990s. It’s incredible that the film is celebrating its 60th anniversary since its release in 1964. 🙂 Continue reading
