Annihilation is a film that creeps up on you that starts about as normal as you'd expect any other film by any other person to be, and slowly becomes not only weirder, but creepier. A lot of it has to do with the fact you don't expect this movie to turn into a horror. I... Continue Reading →
I was a bit worried watching this because I'd consumed many of the best skits and gags this movie has to offer before seeing the film itself. Thankfully, I'm happy to say the context the film gave these skits let me laugh just as much as I did the first time I saw them. The... Continue Reading →
For about a month from June into July, I and good ol' Cameron from Cameron's Considerations embarked on a co-op multiplayer campaign of Total War Warhammer 2 playing as the Empire. I took control of Emperor Karl Franz, and he took control of the Supreme Patriarch, Balthasar Gelt. What followed were at least one or... Continue Reading →
I love map editors and one of my favourites if the one for Heroes of Might and Magic 3. I've been creating ludicrously dumb and nonsensical maps on it for a very long time, but a while ago decided to made one with actual flow to it and, like, intentional design decisions. That map is...

I wasn't really happy with my original review of Warhammer II due to how much I left out, but also didn't want the post to be years long due to just how in-depth the experience can be and how different each faction plays from the next. So I decided to write a couple of more... Continue Reading →
It's time for the one and (probably) only music related post you'll ever read on this blog, curtesy of Emily from Monsterlady's Diary who wrote out all the questions you're about to see me answer and welcomed fellow bloggers to answer them if they so wished. I did wish. It sounded fun, and it's been... Continue Reading →
Nothing happened in June so I didn't post a review of it. The monthly update posts really aren't doing it for me right now so I may phase them out unless I have something worth mentioning about the month. In truth nothing really happened in July either, but I did want to make a post... Continue Reading →
I've never been much of a Kong fan. I admire the special effects of the earlier movies, laugh at Toho's iteration of the character with a beer in hand, and always thought Peter Jackson's movie, while good, overstayed it's welcome. Then Kong Skull Island happened. And if you know anything about how I like my... Continue Reading →
So, uh, where you at? Seriously, a problem I've found specifically in AAA gaming at the moment - at least in the genre of games I am interested in - is that they haven't been very fun lately. And I know exactly why; developers want you to play their games in an obsessively specific way... Continue Reading →
