Star Trek Beyond
Well, this was pretty damn good. Much better than the second one, which I know isn’t saying a whole lot since most people find Into Darkness to be pretty disappointing, but yeah, it’s a really fun flick that feels more like the fun we had with the first movie. I also quite liked the way…

Destiny: Rise of Iron
Well, after leaving the game for close to a year (the last time I played was I think in December, when they had the Sparrow racing event), as the time was coming for the release of this expansion, I decided to re-install the game. Feeling rusty, I went ahead and created a new character, and…

Ghostbusters
I thought this was a pretty fun movie. The absolute star of the show for me is Kate McKinnon – pretty much any scene that focuses on her is great and weird and funny (and her action sequence towards the end with the ecto guns is actually really cool to watch). Chris Hemsworth was also…

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV
I’m going to go against the grain and say that I actually quite enjoyed watching Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV. My friend James didn’t like it much, as he wrote in this review, and although I can’t fault a lot of the points he brings up, I was dazzled by the visuals. The action sequences are…

Samurai Hustle
Today I watched a pretty fun film from 2014 called Samurai Hustle (also known in English as Mission Impossible: Samurai). It’s a jidaigeki (period drama) comedy about a daimyo who is called on to return to Edo to see the shogun until difficult circumstances. My wife watched it a few days ago, and wanted to…

X-Men: Apocalypse
Can’t say that I liked this much. I’m not a huge fan of the X-Men movies in general, but I thought First Class was pretty entertaining. This just felt uninteresting to me, with Apocalypse not doing much until the end, and same goes with his Horsemen. I think the worst thing for me though is…

Don’t Trust the B in Apartment 23
I’d heard good things about this show, but hadn’t really bothered to check it out until now, since I noticed that it had popped up on Netflix. I watched the first few episodes of season 1 earlier today, and wow, I’m absolutely in love with it. It’s just way more crazy than I was expecting,…

Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping
I love the Lonely Island crew, always loved the SNL Digital Shorts they made, and even though they’re usually uneven, I like their movies too. Watched Popstar a few nights ago, and what I can say, I thought it was fucking hilarious. Laughed quite a bit throughout, and just overall thought it was a hell…
