There’s a lot of playthroughs, strategy guides, showcases of mods, and so forth out there. They are an important part of the ecosystem, but they are also kind of boring. How many times do you need to see someone one-shot the final boss? How many times do you need to see someone play the games with the worst possible gear? There’s just diminishing returns there. At the same time, there are people out there innovating in this space all the time.
This is the kind of movie that puts my privilege into perspective.
Granted, Resident Evil wasn’t that anti-corporate. Sure, Umbrella is still the bad guy, but it isn’t there all of the time. It’s existence is acknowledged and I think it’s mentioned only once, but Acme on the other hand… they are pure evil and we are reminded of that over and over.
Oh, once again a topic that is of no interest to anyone outside of myself. Fun.
Matthew McConaughey plays one of those roles. Except that he gets to be lively.
There’s a lot of different ways movies end up on my watchlist. One of the rules I follow is that if a movie is loved by critics, but hated by the audience, I will do my best to watch it, because there must be something interesting about it. The rule worked again. 93% critics score versus 4.9 on IMDb is like catnip to me. (I don’t even really know what that means, but it is an idiom, so I’ll use it.)
I watched a few trailers for Jackass movies on YouTube and now my recommendations are full of Jackass content, mostly podcasts.
The worst movie I’ve seen in a theater this year.
I don’t talk about these enough. I got into arts through comic books, but I have a distinct memory of when certain walls just broke down and saw a light with the help of music videos.
