Why Red Dead Redemption 2 shouldn't be game of the year
- A horse dying is annoying
- The GTA crime system is annoying, albeit the post office system is very good.
- You can't skip chapter 1 in a speedrun.
- Storing animal carcasses is annoying
- Getting a new horse is hard.

Crazy Rich Asians movie review
So after not initially wanting to watch the movie cuz of the trailers, I eventually did.
I read the book, which seemed a lot better than the trailers.
And it was a lot more impressive than I thought it was going to be.
The intro is great with a Hong Kong song played.
The costumes are Oscar worthy.
The CGI fits.
College.
Napoleon Bonaparte.
Quick editing.
Food.
The characters I don't know if they're great or just different from what we normally see.
Also, since they're rich and although it's in the title, I am a little apathetic to seeing a bunch of rich people on tv.
Ken Jeong is still annoying.
Michelle Yeoh is playing an antagonist for no reason. She's not really enjoyable to watch as it and isn't realy natural to play a villain.

Square-Enix ends February 2018 and starts March 2018 weak
The Secret of Mana was considered one of the best games for the SNES not to mention of all time. The story about resources in a war, the real time battles, the ability to charge your meter to increase attack damage, the fact that multiple people can play.
The Fans were hyped at the surprise of Secret of Mana
And then when they were disappointed, I want to say haha Nelson Muntz style.
Then again, I replayed this with my brother and questioned certain things they did. The dialogue felt unnatural, and as if it was written by a six year old. The characters didn't feel like they were written with perspectives or with eloquence. I felt unimmersed.
Like, they didn't think it was odd they gave the previously unnamed character a generic name like Randi. I thought the graphics were upgrades over the DS versions of the Final Fantasies.
Then the game came out and certain stuff was weird.
The cannons not having animations, the characters not having the ability to talk, some glitches in like the middle of the first boss or something.
There's a patch now so hopefully that's fixed.
RPG Limit Break's commentary on the game was pretty good.
So then they released Chrono Trigger too.
And what do you know? After FF5 and 6 being released on Steam did you not predict it'd be a bad graphics Android port like those?\
At least it had the PSX cutscenes.
They they announced a collaboration with EA so you can play as very weird Sims characters in Final Fantasy XV.
I even cringed at the idea of them mentioning the Royal Edition before as the original game just came out 2 years ago.
And then they announced Valkyrie Profile L being rereleased.
At this point, Square Enix should rename themselves crappier version of MCU with remakes instead of sequels.

The Disaster Artist review
Dave Franco main character wants to be successful in Hollywood.
The climax the money Johnny uses
I don't think people will actually figure out how bad the Room is from watching the Disaster Artist. James Franco plays Tommy Wiseau but I don't get who Tommy Wiseau is.
He's a bad actor.
Doesn't remember his lines.
The making of was interesting.
It could've been any movie.
James Franco is good.
The humor is good.

It (2017)
Just to get it out of the way, the film's scare tactics.
I would even say they underplayed the jump scares. For a R-rated film about clowns eating children, this seemed quite tame.
Some of the film was quite hollow. Some of it was special effects. Some of it was loud, but not scary. If it had been extremely loud it might've worked better, but it wasn't at least in my theatre.
Sometimes there was music for a scene I wouldn't know was supposed to be scary till they ruined it like with the tape measure scene.
I also don't know why I'd be scared of a bunch of ropes grabbing me. I'd be more confused than anything.
Bill Skaarsgard is great. In contrast, all the kids felt quite unmemorable for me.
These kids are throwing rocks at other kids and I'm supposed to enjoy this? There's a killer clown on the loose. Priorities, children.
There are some scares with the doll.
I like it when he pretends to be a kid and pretends to die coughing blood.
The spider clown effects are great.
Heath Ledger this is Gotham. Screws in neck.
Kill them all scene with the dad police officer was pretty great.

The Truth About Nintendo: The True Winner of the Switch vs Sony console war
So the biggest video game console war may not be Nintendo vs Sony. Not even Microsoft or Apple will be included.
Or Retron vs Retro Bit.
It may be AMD vs Nvidia, if you can even call it that.
A long time ago, Nintendo and Sony and even Nintendo and Sony had a console war, making some of the best games, etc..
But who was the true winner?
The Sega CD had parts from Sanyo, and Sony parts at the same time when Sony was working on the Nintendo Playstation and made Sewer Shark for the Sega CD. Sanyo, Hitachi, etc.. even made their own Sega CD and/or Saturns. A lot of the microchip processors, capacitors small parts, etc.. sold to multiple sides during the war, in a war where MANY consoles were sold.
AMD and Nvidia may be in a war for best graphical processor.

Kong: Skull Island review
Well done
Action.
Some setting in the beginning taken seriously, but not with much pay off thanks to that third act.
The third act is a bit disappointing although there's a payoff 3d fight.
Good acting. Good cast.
Everything's too darn bright. In the day. Visually that just bothers me, even if it is light toned.

Area 51 for Sega Saturn review
Area 51 was originally a lightgun arcade game. There is no bonus for headshots and each shot on the screen instantly killed the grunt opponents.
You can acquire upgrades for guns when you shoot at those that appear on the screen.
This port is very faithful, and very close to Arcade-like. I'll get to why not later. You use the keypad to aim, b to reload, c to shoot. Good control like A button, B button on a NES controller.
Easy is easy, bit difficult for those unskilled or prefer a light gun.
I don't know if it's nostalgia but I really like this game and think it holds up.
Sometimes there is loading in between scenes on my disc, albeit I did not check for scratches etc..
I played on RGB Scart and the images for the digital aliens seem blurry. They're a bunch of flaming bones. A lot of these animations are noticeably just copy and paste of the palette animations.

Sewer Shark Sega CD review
It came with the system and is a high seller often priced at $5 on eBay.
Very weird.
It's premise is that you go in a sewer and kill all the critters in it.
So you're basically killing road kill in a toilet.
The FMVs I actually enjoy and help the premise with theme park-ish acting. It's serious yet campy at the same time.

Underrated films of 2016
X-Men Apocalypse
You know why I think highly of it. The themes of religion, Reaganism and media in a current world.
Also, dat Quicksilver scene.
Gods of Egypt.
It's not as dark as Alex Proyas the Crow or Dark City, but still has the thematics of his films. I, Robot concentrated on a world where technology goes crazy. Gods of Egypt is a film about the presence of Gods and religion.
I, Robot was too accessible, meant for kids and Gods of Egypt seemed to be for teenagers. I felt this film was weird too when they constantly made Gerard Butler penis jokes.
THIS IS PENIS!
The BFG
A great use of Lord of the Rings-ish technology and great FF9ing/Boukengering of Spielberg works that was hurt by poor marketing. Easy candidate for an Oscar Best Picture Award that gets flushed down the toilet.
Ghostbusters 2016
I'm not the biggest Ghostbusters fan, but really have gotten back into watching that first film over and over again. Re-watching it now, I notice the dark tone it had compared with the really great Real Ghostbusters cartoon, but equally as good. There's a lot of subtext in the original film, which I'll get back to sometime when I finish my video edit of the Ghostbusters analysis.
While the trailers, old school Ghostbuster fans and the Gamergate anti-feminist movement have hurt the film, I feel like it's reached hype. I really wasn't happy with the marketing campaign, then again that worked for the way worse unfunny Bridesmaids.
I feel like based on what Red Letter Media said, they should've liked Ghostbusters, based on their own words. Contemporary comedy mixed with sci fi stuff which wasn't really meant to be the premise of the film. Good timing. SNL/Second City actors. I didn't hear any fart jokes and felt that the humor fit at least the actors if not the characters of this film. It just wasn't over the top in the version/edit I saw of the film. The actors did a good job playing characters. There's a bit of complexity mixing the sci fi with the comedy.
I do feel like it was a good Ghostbusters team, and that if they bring them back, now they would have to do it with a crossover, since the film was hurt so much by bad wrestling fan-ish backlash.

Was the Boss originally supposed to be who the Patriots are? MGS
Recently in a video by Super Bunnyhop about Battlefield single player, SBH stated that the Boss was in control of everything Naked Snake/Big Boss/the player did.
If that was the case, was the Boss originally supposed to be a Patriot?
Maybe she faked her death in MGS 3 to traumatize Naked Snake. Maybe she dies and has a Ra's Al Ghul effect on her.

"7 anos" 2016 review
This film didn't really wow me till the end. It's good that they were able to use the one set a lot, and save the budget that way. There may have been good use of props on the set, but I wasn't able to pick it up on the first viewing.
The main feature was the acting, although the drama between the characters was interesting later on.
Despite my complaints, I'd still give it 5/5 stars.

"La Nina" Netflix TV 2016
The camera work isn't full of production value, but it's standard. A film about a woman who is looked down upon who ends up destroying a bunch of people.
