Happy 1st Birthday chrisjonesgeek.com!

Happy 1st Birthday chrisjonesgeek.com!

I wasn’t going to do a reflective piece on 2018 but my boyfriend (BF Chris), now fiancé Chris, told me because #content. I know. I’m very thankful that my good buddy Francesc Gasco let me kick off the blog with some exclusive and amazing pictures by the talented Lee Faircloth. This blog is exactly one year old as of New Year’s Day, so it’s happy birthday to chrisjonesgeek.com and a lot has happened in that year. I wrote my first piece for Attitude’s Body Issue which went on sale in January. It was quality journalism about butts. Anthony Bowen, LGBT…

I learnt that, as well as a boat-load of other stuff when I hung out with the London Otters one sunny autumn Saturday morning. I’d been aware of the London Otters for some time. They have a great social media presence and cute outfits, which led me to feature them in an article for MTV Fit.  They’re the UK’s only LBGT rowing team and they’re super popular. I was emailed  asking if…

Avengers: Infinity War (sort of spoiler free) review

Avengers: Infinity War (sort of spoiler free) review

Infinite. Sh*t. Goes. Down. “Thanos demands our silence”. And quite rightly. All reviewers were told to keep spoilers to a minimum so that everyone can enjoy the film’s shocks, plot twists and NON STOP ACTION. So this is a spoiler free review. Honest. Now, I’m a huge Marvel fan so I’ll try not to gush too much, but for those not married to the Marvel Cinematic universe, permit me a recap: The big purple bad guy is Thanos (a mo-cap Josh Brolin). Thanos is a mad Titan, seeker of the Infinity Stones, and has a “chin like balls” (thanks Star-Lord –…

Spoiler Free Things I learnt from the Avengers: Infinity War London Fan Event.

Spoiler Free Things I learnt from the Avengers: Infinity War London Fan Event.

Directors the Russo Brothers have kept a small crowd of fans wanting MORE after assembling a selection of Avengers and showing 20 whole minutes of Avengers: Infinity War last night at the new and revamped Television Centre – and the reaction was electric. The cast gathered was just a handful of the enormous ensemble: Paul Bettany (The Vision), Elizabeth Olsen (Scarlet Witch), Sebastian Stan (Winter Solider), Tom Holland (Spider-Man), Tom Hiddleston (Loki), Letitia Wright (Shuri) and Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange). Along with the movie’s directors, Anthony and Joe Russo, the cast attempted to answer some questions that did not give…
