Oxenfree [PC Game]

Olly Olly Oxenfree.
Olly Olly Oxenfree.
So the children sing and play games, and when the games ends they can all come out from hiding.

Again - on a boat.

Star Trek Beyond [Movie Review]

I've been mulling over what words to start this post with... and I've finally decided.

"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Her five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before."
- Kirk speaking the Captain's Oath at the end of Star Trek into Darkness.

Independence Day Resurgence [Movie Review]

Damn was it actually 20 years ago that I saw Independence Day in theaters? I don't even think my local megaplex cinema was even open at the time since the first movie I saw there was The Fifth Element and that movie won't be 20 until next summer... 

X-Men Apocalypse [Movie Review]

Ah, summer blockbuster movies. So much fun.
I kinda wish I had watched both First Class and Days of Future Past before seeing this... just so they were fresh in my mind.

Captain America: Civil War [Movie Review]

The poster is missing two supers.

And so it begins.
Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The end of the Avengers, the beginning of something new...

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

A movie whose subtitle should have been the title.

DC does not have a strong track record of super hero movies in my opinion. Now, they are certainly not worse than what ever has happened with the Failtastic Four and recent Spider Man movies. This was better than those... 'movies.'    

Deadpool [Movie Review]

I had to sit and think about this movie for a long time before I could decide on a rating.
It was not an easy decision. Keep in mind that I do not read 99% of modern American comics (the new Star Wars comics are the exception). I did not have the immediate reaction I had with Where to Invade Next.

The Talos Principle [PC Game]

What is a person?
What makes a person special?
What would an AI think about?

Satellite Reign [PC Game]

It's now time for part 7 of my 'Games I recently bought on a Steam Sale.'
I'm learning something about what games I enjoy currently.

Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion [PC Game]

Welcome to my third installment of 'Games I recently bought on a Steam Sale.'
The prior two games I've reviewed in this series, This War of Mine and The Stanley Parable, were very good and/or very interesting games.

Star Wars The Force Awakens [Movie Review]

I have already seen this movie twice.
Twice, in less than 24 hours.

Yep.

Star Wars Battlefront [PS4 Game]

The game has been out for a little over two weeks.
The Battle of Jakku is now out.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 [Movie Review]

You know what happened today?
Ticket prices went up again. It was only a dime, but damn it - theaters just keep upping the prices.
Oh yeah... and I saw a movie.

Star Trek: Five Year Mission [Board Game]

It has been a very long time since I've written a blog post. I've said before, there will be far less of them than there were before. I wish I could return to the old three updates a week, but I can't. There will still be big reviews, just not as many. There will also be little chance of me reviewing individual episodes of TV shows (which makes me sad).

Sid Meier's Civilization Beyond Earth: Rising Tide [PC Game Expansion]

I liked Beyond Earth well enough when I first got it. However I will admit that unlike Civ V, my interest waned quicker than expected. Each leader in Civ V presents a very unique play style. I did not feel the leaders in Beyond Earth were as unique.

Star Wars Battlefront BETA [PS4 Review]

So... you know that Star Wars kick I've been on.
Well, there's more. Lots more. 

Expect Star Wars for the next few months.

The Martian [Movie Review]

Third review in a week. It's almost like I'm back on schedule. I'm not, but its a nice feeling. Anyways, I have another review this week. It is for a movie that I've been waiting for...

Star Wars Aftermath [Book Review]

So there is a new Star Wars novel out, one that is meant to fill some of the gap between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. The novel is called Aftermath. 

Tiger and Bunny [Anime Review]

This poster is from the movie, which will not be reviewed here. Deal with it.

I started writing this post several days ago, but due to life I failed to finish it. I've decided to rewrite the introduction to explain this tiny fact. I would love to go back to writing three days a week on this blog, but I do not expect to be able to do that for some time. If I ever can. I will maintain this blog for as long as possible, reviewing films and anime and books and games.

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials [Movie Review]

I have certainly been slow on my reviews, but with new movies its hard to pass up the chance to talk about them. Especially science fiction movies...
