Twenty-four years later director Ridley Scott has given us a sequel - Gladiator II. Scott had a mammoth task at hand, how do you create a sequel to one of the greatest films of all time? Gladiator II is a four-star exhilarating historical epic. It fails to live up to its predecessor, but that doesn't not mean it is a bad film or even an unworthy sequel.

Autumn Bucket List

on
Today is officially the first day of Autumn/Fall depending on where you are reading! I absolutely love Autumn, it's not too cold, the trees become an array of bright colours, everything gets a little spooooky and there are some great seasonal movies to watch with a hot drink and a cosy blanket. I may hate scary films, and anything to scary but I love Halloween!! I love doing some Halloween makeup and costumes, making tasty treats, decorating the house and carving pumpkins. I have been growing my own pumpkins this year and I actually have so many to carve - I guarantee I will still end up going to a pumpkin patch to buy more though.

So, I have decided to create a little Autumn bucket list!! Throughout Autumn I will be crossing each item off the bucket list and I want you to join me! You can follow along on my Instagram and Twitter (Links at the end of this post) and I would love to see how you interpret the bucket list! There is something for everyone on this list, from baking to getting outdoors, but most importantly there are some great movies to spend the chilly Autumn nights watching! You will notice that none of these movies are particularly scary because I hate scary films so you can swap them for more scary films if you wish - just don't make me watch them haha.

I cannot wait to start crossing items off this bucket list! I really hope you all like the list and I really hope you will join me on this Autumn adventure. Please let me know what your favourite Autumn activities and movies are in the comments below!! 

Thank you for reading, please give this a share and join me this Autumn xx
