Hello! Today I am writing down my thoughts on Resident Evil 5, which I played with PeterStillman (you can find his account here on spacehey: https://spacehey.com/profile?id=2911584 ). Side note before we begin, I think I'm going to start dropping the word review from my writing on these things, primarily because a review suggests that I am judging the piece of media in response or relation to pub... » Continue Reading
Wow, I have been on a bird-movie-related kick recently. All of them having very similar themes! Worst part is this wasn't intentional lol. I wanna mention that I watched this on a 20 mg edible, meaning I was pretty fucked up while watching it, but it also means I have disproportionally high thoughts about it on account of me being fucked up, lets talk about it. This movie is fucking weird man, t... » Continue Reading
Hello! I'm back again working through my review backlog. Today is another light one: Chicken Run. As previously mentioned I have abandoned the idea of numerically ranking things, at least in one concrete number. I may return to numbers if I can solidify a good set of different categories. Onto the review. Chicken run is a claymation film from the same studio as Wallace and Gromit, this is pretty e... » Continue Reading
Hello everyone, time for another review! this time of the movie "migration". This will probably be a pretty short one, simply because I have very little thoughts about it, not that it was trying to be a very thought provoking movie. I also watched it piss drunk, so that also contributes. Migration is about a family of ducks that do not migrate, their father is a helicopter parent who is constantly... » Continue Reading
Hello, this is my hopefully return to reviewing after being in a kind of mental haze for the last 2 or so weeks, This time on House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. House of leaves is a complicated thing to review, as its story is rife with meta commentary, told by an extremely unreliable narrator, and is also potentially non-linear in nature. I will do my best to provide a brief synopsis: House... » Continue Reading
So! I just saw Wicked, which is the first time I've watched a movie in a couple of months and it was!!!!... divided. To sum it up, it is visually stunning while being plotwise stunted... so lets talk about it. Final rating: waiting for part 2/5 First I wanna talk about the positives of this movie: the visuals. Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo were both fantastic, their singing, their acting, the d... » Continue Reading
Hello all, once again it is time for me to review media, this time however, it is a TV show, arcane. I've never tried to review something serialized before, so you'll have to bear with me as I try to fit a pretty decent show into a relatively short for its length review. I feel my review may be somewhat tainted as I'm writing this just after finishing the finale, and of course its been nearly a ye... » Continue Reading
Plato's republic is considered to be the cornerstone of western philosophy, and by all accounts, this seems true. However, does that make it a quality read? nnnnot really. Lets talk about it. Final rating: 2.5/5 (based on reading enjoyment, not the value of the book) First I want to say that I read most closely the first book, that about justice and morals, as suggested by a friend to be the most... » Continue Reading
Hello! I just finished konami's silent hill 3, usually I let a game or book stew for a bit before hopping on to write a review but this game is so epic I cant help but start writing it now. To be honest I have so much to say about the game that it's almost daunting to try to write this, but lets do it anyway. Firstly I wanna say I played the PC port of silent hill 3, I know nothing about the silen... » Continue Reading
This will be comparatively shorter than my usual review, simply because this book is an intro to economic terminology, and not really a story or media piece. Written by David Bianchi Final score: 3/5 Blue chip kids is a book about economic terminology, it is far from in depth and really only talks about surface level economic policy, but its a great read if you're new to stocks (like me) or just ... » Continue Reading
Hello! This is my review of Frank Herbert's 1965 Scifi masterpiece "Dune" I'll do a brief overview of the plot (spoiler free) then a ramble about my thoughts. Hope you enjoy! Dune is set in some far off future of humanity, where mankind has not only conquered themselves, but also the galaxy, maybe even the universe. yet of all the planets under the imperium's control, none are more valuable than t... » Continue Reading
RATING: 1.5/5 REVIEW: TLDR: what if the joker was called the freaky and he had SEX with HARLEY QUINN!! This movie was NOT very good, but I wanna start with what I recognized from it, and what I think it was trying to do. The movie centers around the court case for the joker following the first joker movie, the primary defense is trying to get him off with a plea of insanity based around the idea ... » Continue Reading
