Advantages: lots of pictures Disadvantages: can be pricey for the newer editions
I am going to review one of the older books as Judith Miller brings one of these books out every year. She also brings out an antiques price guide annually aswell the paticualar one I am using as reference is the 1997 to 1998 version.
Judith miller and her team go round different auction houses and photograph items that are worth a fair bit. A lot of these things are modern day collectables, starting from the later end of the 19th century up to present day. each page has photos of the items which include a price, ie valuers estimate, say as £25-£40
If you go to car boots or flea markets it would be a good idea to look through one of these books, and get an idea of whats worth something amd what's it not.
Sections in the book include:
Advertising
Books
Ceramics
Dolls
Ephemera (film related things i think)
Luggage ...
Advantages: Taste, Goes down easily, Cheap (6 for £5) Disadvantages: Not the best (though freaking great)
Just previous to this review I'd had a bottle of San Miguel ("San Awful"- http://www.ciao.co.uk/SanMiguelPremiumLagerReview5632358), then sat down to a bottle of Miller. Thankfully I'd still had a Miller left in the fridge after the previous nights drinking.
Miller is one of the few beers that comes in a clear glass bottle (as the beers can be given a malty taste if left in sun light, as can also be seen in Corona extra), Miller is an American 4.7% import from apparently America's second top company. Which they claim as being "America's quality beer", personally I'd agree.
Now onto the actual review...well actually it wasn't, the review was started like 2 weeks ago but I never actualy got round to finishing it as my flat mate drank the one I saved so here's the review as I've got one with me.
As soon as the bottle opens ...
Advantages: Six packs abound in a graphic and bloodly epic Disadvantages: Highly stylised violence, perhaps not for everyone
Background
300 is the second Frank Miller graphic novel to be adapted for the big screen. The first was the critically acclaimed Sin City and the director Zack Snyder has used the same process of photocopying panels from the original comic book to plan out the finished look of his latest movie. The final result is a visually stunning combination of live action and CGI that is remarkably faithful to Miller's original artwork. It is quite literally a comic novel brought to life and the superb quality of Miller's graphic creations are a guarantee of stunning eye candy throughout.
Plot Summary
The story of the movie is based on the Battle of Thermopylae, 480 BC in which 300 Spartan warriors held off a Persian army of up to 1 million indigenous and mercenary soldiers against all the odds. The two main protagonists are King Leonidas ...
