This week I watched a bunch of Korean movies.
Me too! I really loved how the characters evolved throughout the show. The people on SG1 and Atlantis remained fairly static during their run, but comparing Eli and Rush from the pilot with their late season 2 counterparts really shows how much they changed.
It definitely is. SG1 is pretty good, nothing groundbreaking, but very entertaining nonetheless. The first couple of seasons can be very rough, with lots of planet-of-the-week episodes and filler, but from season 3 on, it really hits its stride. SGA never really figured out what it was supposed to be about, and that…
I finally watched the first two episodes of the new Twin Peaks season. I think it's fair to say that there's nothing like it on television. It takes the surrealism of the original and dials it up to eleven. I have no idea what is happening, what it means and how everything relates to everything else, but by god is…
Great news! I was hesitant to start season 2 because of the cliffhanger at the end, but now I've put it on my to-do-list, right after the other two dozen shows I have yet to watch. Why does so much quality television have to come out at the same time?
On monday, I watched Wonder Woman . While it's your standard superhero origin story, it was competently executed and didn't leave me with a headache, which is more than I can say for the other DC movies, especially Murderman v Superdick. The pacing was a bit off; the movie takes a while to get going. That, and the…
As someone who hasn't seen Sherlock's fourth season or followed any coverage on it, how is the consensus on that? It seems to be pretty negative. I've got some free time coming up and that show is still on my watchlist.
Wolfenstein was the clear winner for me. I can't wait for some more Nazi killing this october.
I, for one, look forward to another game about shooting Nazis in their stupid faces and various other body parts. Possibly while riding on a fire-breathing robot dog.
Alien.
It really was. Taking the somewhat interesting premise at the end of Prometheus and shoving it into the gutter for more uninspired Xenomorph crap. Everything felt so mediocre and predictable. Just about the only thing that's good is Michael Fassbender. And the spaceships look kinda cool, too.
Unskippable cutscenes, mandatory stealth sections in a non-stealth game, platforming sections in non-platforming games, sections where your character moves veeeerrrryyyy slowly for various reasons or when you have to wait for conversations to finish before doors open. Basically anything that stops the flow of the game.
So much this. The raging boner the writers seemed to have for Cerberus killed the series for me. The utter insanity of Cerberus going from a small terrorist group to a galactic superpower with fleets of battleships and armies of cyborgs completely breaks ME3, not to mention the loathsome writer's pet called Kai…
The Director's Cut of Kingdom of Heaven is far, far superior. It adds almost a full hour of sub-plots and character development. The movie is much more satisfying that way.
Ugh, Sliders… now there's a show that got utterly screwed by executives. I still like the first two seasons a lot, despite them having a lot of problems, but by season 3 it completely turned into generic sci-fi schlock after they fired the creator and Jonathan Rhys-Davies and added Kari Wuhrer.
8. She was on Banshee, one of the best shows of the last few years. I started watching for tits and action, and stayed because of the great characters.
They are amazing. Great gameplay with a surprisingly good story and characters.
It will have a hard time trying to beat the newest Wolfenstein games. Now that is some glorious Nazi killing.
After the awful first two episodes of Season 3 of The Walking Dead, I'm going to stay away from Telltale's games for a while, even though I am a huge GotG fan. They all just blend together, quick time events and "meaningful" choices, it's all just the same.
Same for me. I had watched Wrath of Khan the day before going to see Into Darkness. The sheer audacity of these absolute hacks to rip off a classic while adding their own 9/11 truther bullshit, lens flares and shaky cam to it still drives me up the wall to this day.
