The show must go on as murder mayhem and music run riot in the night The Opera House Ankh-Morpork…A huge rambling building where masked figures and hooded shadows do wicked deeds in the wings…Where dying the death on stage is a little bit more than a metaphor…Where innocent young sopranos are lured to their fateful destiny by an evil mastermind in a hideously deformed evening dress…Where…There’s a couple of old ladies in pointy hats eating peanuts in the gods and looking up at the big chandelier and saying things like: ‘There’s an accident walting to happen if ever I saw one.’ Yes…Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg the Discworld’s greatest witches are back for an innocent night at the opera. So there’s going to be trouble (but nevertheless a good evening’s entertainment with murders you can really hum…)

This light emits a fantastic multi-coloured display. There are 5 different sequences which you can change between by pressing the button on the side. Each style is made up of different combinations of red green and blue light each with different patterns and displays some flashing and some still. The multi-coloured effect is really beautiful. The dome shape means that the light reaches out expansively to illuminate the pool or room.

The feature film The X-Files: I Want to Believe is a satisfying if unspectacular installment in the X-Files series, taking place an unspecified time after the show’s nine-year television run. Former agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) is now a doctor, while Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) is being hunted by his former agency and living in seclusion. He and Scully are summoned back by a case involving a missing agent and a former priest (Billy Connolly) who claims to be able to see clues to the agent’s whereabouts psychically, though his initial search turns up only a severed limb.
Don’t expect the usual cast of characters; the FBI has completely turned over (except for the George W. Bush portrait), and the only reason Scully and Mulder are back is because agent Dakota Whitney (Amanda Peet) remembers his success on similar cases involving the inexplicable. Don’t expect the same rogues’ gallery either; unlike the previous X-Files feature film, which was inextricably linked to the series’ convoluted mythology arc (and served as a bridge between the fifth and sixth seasons), I Want to Believe is a stand-alone piece that makes use of the series’ roots in horror/sci-fi and moody Vancouver, B.C., locales. Also unlike the previous film, which was almost self-consciously shot for the big screen, this film is on a smaller scale, like a double-length episode of the series. But it’s still a good reminder of the creepy vibe that hooked fans for years. And the relationship between Mulder and Scully? It seems to have resumed pretty much where it left off, at least when you take into account the long period of separation. But stick around for the end-credit sequence to take in all the possibilities for the future. –David Horiuchi, Amazon.com
