When monsters attack
Life, Kanin Srimaneekulroj, Published on 10/03/2017
» Kong: Skull Island seems like it tries -- and largely fails -- to present a serious, deep message, even though it often veers into the campy territory so many monster films seem to occupy. Most of the characters -- of which there are unnecessarily many -- are completely devoid of personality or even purpose, getting introduced only to eventually become monster-snacks, offering absolutely nothing to the plot beyond creating a false sense of mortality for the obvious band of destined survivors. The plot, as anyone familiar with King Kong's lore can surmise, is also nothing new, and is actually quite similar to the Peter Jackson-directed King Kong's (2005) plot of a group of outsiders surviving on a hostile island dominated by the giant ape.

Good grapes and great food
Guru, Catherine Faulder, Published on 10/03/2017
» <b>The setting:</b> Dimly-lit Riedel exudes the oaked feels of a swanky cellar, with one side lined with state-of-the-art wine dispensing and preservation systems that store a carefully curated and rotating selection of Riedel's 250 labels. Originally a wine glass company dating back to 1756, Riedel's known for producing those super elegant handmade glasses that complement and unleash the magic encapsulated in its bottles. Stepping into Riedel is thus like stepping into a classy sipping experiment that you end up carrying out on yourself, or with others. "Which bottle should I choose?" "Which glass-shape complements this bottle best?" "What is it about this particular shape of glass that brings out the earthy characteristics of bottle X?" "Which one should follow?" "Which one goes well with such-and-such-a-dish?" "How many sips do I need before Y happens..." You thus become your own master of the grape, a makeshift connoisseur for an evening. Of course, you're guided by sommeliers who know what they're doing, so you know who to blame if it all goes heads up.
