Doctor Who series 8 - Flatline (episode 9) [TV Review]

I absolutely love these Radio Times retro-Who posters.

This is a very Clara centric episode.
This is also a pretty comedic episode.
The whole thing is rather fun.

A Certain Scientific Railgun S [Anime Review]

This series is the sequel to A Certain Scientific Railgun, a series set in the same world as A Certain Magical Index (which also has a sequel). I'm not certain, but I think the Japanese title sounds better. Ignoring the morass of complex kanji (とある科学の超電磁砲), it reads as Toaru Kagaku no Rērugan.

Doctor Who series 8 - Mummy on the Orient Express (episode 8) [TV Review]

Again, a wonderful poster from The Radio Times.

This episode was not what I was expecting. Not at all. I was expecting an episode closer to Turn Left or Midnight from back in the David Tennant years. You know, the Doctor solo / Companion solo episodes.

Dracula Untold [Movie Review]

I have a joke for you.
What do you get when you have Bard (The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug) make a deal with Tywin Lannister (Game of Thrones)?

Ninja Nonsense [Dusty Shelf Anime Review]

I flipped to the back of the last DVD of Ninja Nonsense to check the copyright. 2004 for the original work, and 2006 for the RightStuff DVD. I would bet money that this has just be sitting on my shelf gathering dust for 8 years. Good thing I finally got around to watching it.

Extra History [Youtube Review]

This is a first. I'm reviewing a Youtube channel.
I hope you have heard of Extra Credits, an awesome channel that reviews games, highlights obscure games, and more. 

Doctor Who series 8 - Kill the Moon (episode 7) [TV Review]

Yet another fantastic cover from the RadioTimes.

I am of two minds with this weeks Doctor Who episode. And, yes, I do realize that my update is late again. It happens, I try to keep to a schedule but that is not always possible. I do at least get 3 updates a week out.

Ikigami [Manga Review]

It has been a while since I wrote up a manga review. However since I just finished this series, it seemed a fine time to write one. Ikigami: the Ultimate Limit has perhaps one of the least adequate subtitles of any series.

To Love Ru Darkness [Anime Review]

I'm actually shocked that a factoid about this anime escaped me. The name of the series, To Love Ru is actually the English word Trouble. ToRabuRu, right up there in hiragana, is the Japanese phonetic (is that the right word in this situation?) pronunciation of Trouble.

Doctor Who series 8 - The Caretaker (episode 6) [TV Review]

Again, these awesome images are from the Radio Times.

 Ok, so the update is very late. I've had a busy weekend and finally have some time to write this. Thank goodness for Tivo, I can watch the episode over and over... and fast forward past commercials.

Curse of the Golden Flower [Dusty Shelf - Movie Review]

Well this is a first. This is the first Dusty Shelf review of a Movie. Normally I serve these for anime, but this movie is special. The real question is what kind of special is it?

Doctor Who series 8 - Time Heist (episode 5) [TV Review]

I love these retro posters from the Radio Times.

The title of this episode made me wary. It is just too cliche, which I know might be a taboo thing to say about Doctor Who, but it really is. This is a sad fact since this is certainly a very good episode. 

The Maze Runner [Movie Review]

The Doctor Who series 8 review has been postponed. It will be up on Monday. My apologies. However, it has been postponed to review yet another of these movies being made from wildly popular YA book series. Somehow, and this is most likely a good thing, I've never read a single one of them.

Destiny [PS4 Review]

This review was supposed to get written and be published last night. The problem was that I was playing the game this review is covering. I was deep in Destiny and had my hands full.

Sims 4 [PC Game Review]

I was on the fence about buying this game.
The Sims and I have a love hate relationship. We always have.
