Elio Review

     Is there life beyond Earth? Journey to the cinema to find out in Pixar's latest and first Sci-Fi adventure: Elio. Elio is a young boy, who having recently lost his parents goes to live with his aunt. Unable to find a place to belong in his new life, Elio looks to space to find his place. Pixar is known for it's touching animated features and shorts, which often tackle complex emotions. Their films are aimed at viewers of all ages, which tends to result in life-long fans. We have seen Pixar bring to life; toys, cars, bugs and fish, now they've turned their unique creative powers to aliens, in a refreshingly original feature: Elio. So does Elio make contact with outer-space and steal our hearts in the process or does it fail to launch?

Autumn Bucket List

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
