Hoping to work up some courage and get some more playtime into Resident Evil 7 this weekend, I managed to make it past the first boss fight in the garage yesterday. Then I immediately ran to a save point and turned the system off. Guys, this game is scary. I kind of knew what to expect from reading the reviews and…

Southland Tales has an abundance of those: the Zeppelin tracking shot, the "Wave of Mutilation" scene, Justin Timberlakes bonkers musical number set to the Killers' "All These Things That I've Done," etc. while still managing to be a pretty bad (but fascinating) movie.

Shit, the surprisingly good early reviews had me really looking forward to this. I mean, I still am, but now there's a bit more dread and doubt thrown in there too. Why you gotta do this to me Iggy?

Target had a Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale for new games (FYI it's still going on until the 11th,) so I broke down and got Resident Evil 7, Final Fantasy XV and Pokemon Sun. I would have gotten Breath of the Wild for the Wii U, but it seems that it was sold out in pretty much every Target in Los Angeles. So yea, that's my…

"Between the Bars," "St. Ides Heaven," or "Half-Right" (that may be cheating cause it's a Heatmiser song, still counts in my book though.)

Also those Buffy games for the original Xbox were pretty fucking awesome.

The real Nazis run your schools
They're coaches, businessmen and cops
In a real fourth Reich you'll be the first to go

Jay Som's Turn Into was a very pleasant surprise, such a solid album that came out of nowhere. Really, really, really looking forward to her next album. Also I get to see Magnetic Fields perform 50 Song Memoir in it's entirety over two days in April and I cannot effing wait.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation remains one of the most disappointing film experiences of my life. That movie is so bad it almost, almost, retroactively ruins the first film.

I will defend the first Mortal Kombat film until the day I die. It's Enter the Dragon meets Star Wars and it's fucking awesome and I love it and don't even try to tell me it's cheesy, poorly written or the CGI has aged horribly because I'm not listening.

"Fugue and Riffs," really only for that ostrich scene at the end. That scene made me laugh harder than anything I've ever laughed at, ever.

Suge Knight. I know he's still alive, and not even really an artist. I just really want to read a Suge Knight memoir, I can only imagine how batshit crazy it would be.

It was! I'm surprised at how well that movie has held up.

Spider Man and the X-Men in Arcade's Revenge may be the most disappointing game of my childhood. I saved up my allowance for months to get that game. I mean it's Spider Man AND the motherfucking X-Men, together, in the same game, it should be amazing! But no, it was a flaming hot pile of garbage.

I re-watched Wayne's World the other day and at one point Rob Lowe's character drops a "LITERALLY" almost exactly the same way as Chris Traeger does, and I squealed like a little girl. It was pretty embarrassing.

We have a new king of slams!

"…Whatever"

Me? I'm just waiting for FFVIII's dystopia to arrive, where a…um…wait…what the hell was FFVIII about again?

I…kind of agree with Pitchfork here? This is a good album, but I feel like it's a step down from (the admittedly impossible to follow) Celebration Rock. I guess I'm just not a fan of the production on this album, but the actual songs are solid (No Known Drink or Drug is the shit.) I like this album, but I feel like…
