  • Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

    —

    ,

    Holy shit did I ever love this series to death. I pretty much binged the entire season in one night, and when I got to the end, I just wanted more. It begins with that theme song, that I love to bits – certainly one of the best TV theme songs ever. For the rest,…

  • Interstellar

    —

    ,

    I remember that when this movie came out a lot of people were criticizing it for a few things, including the presence of Matt Damon, and the ending. I finally got around to watching it, and I have to say I really, really enjoyed it, including those two aspects (Damon plays a frustrating character, but…

  • Pausing PauseTalk

    —

    The final PauseTalk (Vol. 85) was held on Monday, March 2, 2015. The end, my friends. “Final” is a big word, and you may be wondering why I decided to put an end to the series, instead of getting someone else to continue running it – and there was indeed interest in doing that. Let…

  • The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

    —

    ,

    As much as I’ve loved the Lord of the Rings trilogy (I’ve re-watched it countless times), I just haven’t felt that love for The Hobbit. Initially, I didn’t much like the first film – I still really don’t like the entire 45 minute intro – but upon re-watching it during the holidays I found more to…

  • Better Call Saul

    —

    ,

    Well this sure is a lot better than I was expecting. Saul was never one of my favorite characters in Breaking Bad, and although I was happy to hear that a spinoff series was going to get made with him, that was basically because I knew that the same creative team would be behind it,…

  • Utopia

    —

    ,

    This is a series I’ve heard nothing but good things about for what seems like forever, and it has been on my watch list for quite a while. It finally popped up on Hulu JP, and so I’ve been watching it with my wife (3 episodes so far), and yes, it’s indeed quite good. It…

  • The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D

    —

    ,

    As I’ve stated a great many times, The Legend of Zelda series has always been and continues to be my favorite series in games. There is a weird hole in my history with the series though (outside of all the portable titles) and that’s Majora’s Mask. I did own it and play it when it…

  • Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move

    —

    ,

    Another game I grabbed with my Club Nintendo points (after Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D) was Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move for the 3DS. I was always curious about these “Minis” games but for some reason never got around to playing any of them, and so decided to finally take the jump,…
