did Back to the Future: Part II predicted the future?

was watching back to future 2 and its just hit me when watching was some of stuff see in year 2015 of the movie come true or not let go down some of the list that has indeed come true from the movie.


3D movies- we see marty get attack bye a giant 3D shark then years later we got 3D movies so indeed a yes for that.


hand games- we see marty playing old gun west game or something then years later in the future we wind up with Wii system so that is another yes


Flat screen tvs and video calling-
during the movie we see marty talking to needles which look like indeed a big flat tv screen  which is out now and he also use the video calling which here in the future look like google hangout or Skype which again we got now.


some of it is indeed true  and its amazing how one movie predicted the future for what yet to come  but do note we still don't have flying cars yet or hover boards  so there still a few that isn't out there yet but half of what I just list look indeed true also forgot when marty kids was at the table eating they were wear glasses that looked like google Glasses and this movie came out in 1989 so indeed something how this movie showed us what was yet to come.

The Shield vs The Wyatts thoughts and why I like to see more

this is my thoughts on the ending of wwe raw this last Monday so here is my thoughts spoilers below.



at the end on raw last week we see a 3 on 2 handicap match it was the Shield vs Cm Punk and Daniel bryan it was indeed a great match in my view then before it ending the wyatts show up and hell break loose between  the Shield and the wyatts  first they started yelling at each other this has something I been waiting to see for months and I said is it going to happen will we  see a fight between them and guess what it happen they indeed fight each stable did it went on for 2 mins unit they form a team to take out punk and Bryan it was indeed a great fight between  the wyatts and the Shield and I hope wwe has a feud between both of them in the future or a least a match because it would indeed be a match or feud when will it happen or may not happen is the question not going to happen anytime soon unless the Shield show up in the Wyatt match at wwe  Survivor Series when they face Cm Punk and Daniel Bryan would be cool but who knows with wwe what they do hopefully they will do this down the line because this is what fans like me and others will like to see it is getting good buzz we shell see though because that fight at the end was indeed worth it and save the show from being more bad then rest of show was wwe posted a unseen footage from the fight will post video below for you too  see what a good fight that was.

View From An Engine Front - Ilfracombe 1898 thoughts

here is some more amazing footage from the year 1898 with another view from engine front of the train as you watch you can see the great shots of lands and building and lots of great lands shots have to credit too the person who film this they did a wonderful job and I also liked how the  film ending  so below after I posted info on video check this out for another great train ride from the year 1898.


Info thanks to BFI

This careering ride through the Devon countryside to the seaside town of Ilfracombe can offer us some insights into the first years of film. "Phantom rides" such as this were very popular with audiences as the novelty of movement was what was so new about the cinema. Films were often shown as part of travelling fairgrounds, so the rollercoaster nature of the trip is no coincidence.

One thing to bear in mind whilst watching is that early film cameras were cranked by hand. So please spare a thought for the man clinging to the front of the steam engine to take you on your journey. All aboard! (Jez Stewart)

Georges Méliès: The Fat and the Lean Wrestling Match (1900) thoughts

back again with some more thoughts on cool footage back from the days and this time I give you my thoughts on Georges Méliès: The Fat and the Lean Wrestling Match (1900) Original title: Nouvelles luttes extravagantes
Breve Storia del Cinema - Il cinema di Méliès


this fits in very well for me liked it because I am huge wrestling fan what funny is when they do wrestling moves they turn into dummy's and fall apart very funny stuff like how the skinny guy try to lift the big guy at the start of there match very stuff this also has some great effects for the year 1900 this could well be the first wrestling match if so it opens a lot of doors to what it has come today with TNA, WWE and ROH wrestling so even if your not a wrestling you should check out because you will have a good laugh as much as I did very cool video will be posted below Georges Méliès was indeed great.


link only since blogger can't find the video on here very odd but go to this link below to see it.

View from an Engine Front - Barnstaple (1898 thoughts

found some great more footage from the past which I thought would share and give you thoughts on but before that below is info on the video.


This 'phantom ride' along a stretch of partly elevated track through the Devon town of Barnstaple and its main station is an oddly haunting experience. Aside from two briefly-glimpsed London & South-Western Railway employees waving flags, no human activity is apparent until the train reaches the main railway station - an earlier platform is mysteriously deserted. However, this allows a greater opportunity to appreciate what are still clearly recognisable Barnstaple locations, with good views of the town as the train approaches the station. (Michael Brooke) thanks BFI for the info.


I must say after watching it was cool watching this felt like I was on a train ride on youtube amazing footage going though the town and see rail road tracks along with house and some people very rare footage this is  but it was indeed amazing I could watch this for hours indeed very cool footage for the year 1898 that right year 1898  nice camera shot from Engine Front too check out below for this amazing footage from way over 100 or more years ago.



link only due to fact blogger can't find the video in there list on here so click the link below to see it.
