Better Saw II than Jeepers Creepers 2 since that one actually took place on a school bus for parts of the movie. Plus, you know,, the director’s creepy history, which makes watching the film that much more unsettling...

The mental image this provides is quite pleasing.

Resident Evil 2 was my entry into survival horror gaming. I remember renting it for the first time when I was in high school in the late 90s/early 2000s, back when Blockbuster was still a thing and super conveniently within walking distance from my house. I made the (poor? awesome?) decision to play it in my family’s…

You read my mind!

My boyfriend’s looking at me like I’ve lost my mind, I’m cracking up so hard.

My boyfriend was saddened by both deaths, but he was actually sadder about Abraham because he’s going to miss those bizarre yet charming conversations he and Eugene had. That chemistry of weird speech patterns. I’m going to miss the absurdity, but not as much as my grieving boyfriend.

Something that the past season or so has addressed, but what Negan will really hit home about (ugh, I keep doing inadvertent puns), is that survival in this phase of the zombie apocalypse is really pressing on maintaining enough goods and resources, which is getting harder with limited existing resources and things…

It’s that Macchiavellian way of thinking about leadership—better to be feared than be loved. The problem with the Governor is that he shifted gears during his leadership of his community, which threw some of his people off (and required some to be killed). I don’t doubt that Negan has kept it 100—that would explain…

Well, I would like to think that a) once she regains her emotional stability after her recent breakdown, or b) once she learns that Darryl’s been kidnapped, she’ll get to work. I’m also afraid that Carol might give her life for Darryl—which is something I’ve been fearing since maybe season 4 and I’m wholly surprised…

I agree that by keeping Rick alive and the leader of the group, we’re constantly positioned to see the show’s evolution as a comparison of leadership styles. This is the development the series has undergone since we woke up in that hospital room with Rick and since we watched Rick say out loud that he didn’t want to…

I’m so excited they decided to bring Ezekiel and the tiger to the show. I wasn’t sure they were going to do it because, you know, it’s a tiger. (And the show seems to love avoid showing animals on it when it can—I’m guessing because of the extra budget to either humanely have animals on set or to CGI them.) So I’m not…

COMIC SPOILERS: So I’m not fully caught up, though I’ve read enough to have reached where this Negan story arc could end on the show before the arc shifts gears. I just want to make it to the Whisperers, at least. I’ve read far enough that they’ve been introduced, including the young female, and I can’t express how…

I missed the peace sign somehow and want to go back and rewatch for it except I really DON’T want to go back and rewatch, so I’ll just leave it be.

Woooow, I’d never seen the similarities before and now I can’t unsee. Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing except my first major Javier moment was him in No Country For Old Men. So now I’m blending Shugar (spelling?) and Negan together in my mind and it’s actually a really really unsettling image.

I would add/amend that the way that American capitalism has been fueling the marketing strategies behind these holidays, if you’re someone who shops in physical stores*, holiday merchandise gets pushed earlier than the month in which a holiday may fall. ESPECIALLY Christmas. And it feels like that tendency to start…

Making myself mimosas with some Grand Marnier thrown in. And drinking from a nice Halloween-themed goblet to lighten my spirits even a bit.

As someone who is 31 and has watched a lot of animated series throughout her life, I’m really happy that Cree Summer continues to do voice work. And it’s especially important since I don’t know that there are many easily-recognizable women of color who do animated work as she’s done for, what, at least two decades.

I’m reading an article this morning that some dogs and cats were brought from shelters along the SC coast to DC to get them out of the hurricane path. I don’t think they were that many in this instance, but it made me realize I don’t know what the procedure is for non-pet animals in these scenarios (and I’m not sure I…

The War on Christmas is actually being caused by climate change. I would laugh at the irony except for, you know, dead reindeer, screwed herders, and ill people...

OH CRAP. THEY RELEASED SEASON 3??? Well, I know how I’m ringing in October this weekend!
