Interesting. Lack of theatrical commitment hasn’t stopped Netflix from pumping out absolute dogshit for the past few years.

I know almost nothing about The Long Walk aside from it’s a Stephen King story, and the kid who played the synth from Romulus is in it.
Event Horizon fucking rules.


I went on a Disney cruise for a family vacation this past week, and we got to see Fantastic Four, Freakier Friday, and Tron: Ares.
Fantastic Four was fun, but it’s kinda just another MCU movie.
Freakier Friday I had literally zero expectations for, but I honestly found it very fun and endearing. It’s similar to the first one, but different enough to feel fresh and new, and there really wasn’t that much Millennial/Gen Z/Gen Whatever humor in the movie either, which I appreciated. They brought back all the actors who were in the first movie, including Lohan’s old band mates, and her old crush (who, imo, has probably the funniest parts of the whole movie). I’d honestly recommend anyone who was even slightly entertained by the 2003 one to watch this sequel.
Tron: Ares was cool to watch, but a lot of the Jared Leto scenes made it feel painfully obvious that this was his movie that he wanted to make. Like it’s literally just Jared Leto talking about the stuff he likes like Depeche Mode (there are literally two scenes where they talk about DM, but the second one at least kinda makes sense imo). The action was cool, the effects were well done, it was cool to see programs interact with and be in the real world, and it had some very interesting mechanical ideas. The soundtrack was pretty good too, it felt kinda like a chunkier/grittier version of Legacy.
I liked the “magic fight” in the first movie, because it shows Dave Franco’s character is incredibly capable of turning/working for the government. Like the way he disguises his voice after hearing the other guy say a couple things or disappearing right in front of him, and the cards. Imo they should have used their magic for more espionage and covert shit than whatever the hell they ended up doing.
The second one is dumb as hell, but still fairly entertaining if you actually turn your brain off for most of the physics and such.
I don’t really have high hopes for this one, but I’ll probably watch it on streaming eventually one day when it comes out.


I watched the first three recently, and I feel like I don’t need to keep going. Although I am curious about Scream 4.
I did like the first one actually, I didn’t see the twist coming with the friend but I thought the acting in those final moments were great. The whole “I think I’m dying, man” was pretty intense imo. The second one was okay, but I didn’t care for the “twist” of that one.


Such a fun set. As soon as I saw it online I knew I had to have one. And it was so worth it! They did such a good job, and even included the original AFOL designer as one of the minifigs!


I never played classic Blue Shift until a couple years ago (I didn’t actually finish though, but I did get a part of the way through Xen in that one) and thought it had a little more “personal” feel to it rather than Half-Life. Like everyone has a name, and calls you Barney or Calhoun all the time and such.
The Blue Shift Remake mod for Black Mesa is really cool imo. It’s bigger, there’s been more stuff added to levels, and it kinda fleshes out Black Mesa itself as a location (you have different divisions with their uniforms and such, like Security, Research, Warehouse and Maintenance).


I mean it’s based on a couple children’s books about kids’ imaginations running wild. It’s been a long time since I’ve read either, but isn’t a parent or grandparent telling the kids a story, and they’re little kids so they believe all the stuff about giant food.
I remember loving the illustrations in each one though.


There’s Rock, Rock With Arms, and Big Rock Snake


They made Goth Mommy GF into a pokemon with “Gothita”
How many sentient clouds are also pokemon? Or that one that’s literally just a balloon?
I swear pokemon ran out of creativity by gen 3 - and I’m not even a pokemon fan.


That was faster than I expected.
Hopefully someone gets it who actually cares about entertainment.


Can I get a large Slurpee, mixed?


Getting back into Schedule 1 after a few months, it’s still fun and decently chill to just be a drug dealer for wacky cartoon drug addicts.
I have almost all the properties - all I’m missing is the docks warehouse - I have all possible customers, I’m almost done taking out the rival drug cartel in the game, and I’m still only based out of the barn. I also finally got around to hiring my first few employees so I don’t have to constantly be mixing up new shit to sell or give to my dealers. I’m excited to see what else they add to the game (it’s still in EA).
After I’m done with that, I’ll probably jump back into Abiotic Factor and try to finish the story of that one.


Badass


Hell yeah


Oh shit does that mean we’re finally gonna not make Scarlet Witch the main antagonist in anything Marvel now?


I mean it’s a fun concept. Dumb, but fun.
I need to read those books again.
I bought it and played through the tutorial.
I haven’t touched it since. But I do think it’s a cool idea/game, as basically just a single player DnD campaign.
