I don't why it is, but I like old action movies and Cliffhanger turned out to be better than what I expected. Jurassic World was fine, but it doesn't have the rewatchability of the original. Random Hearts was not at all what I was expecting. I only briefly skimmed the back of the DVD case, so I assumed that it was a conspiracy thriller, but it was a drama about two people not only having to cope with the loss of the spouses, but the revelations that they were having an affair with each other.
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit was a good movie too, but Keira Knightley's American accent was not great. It sounded like someone from California trying to do a New England accent. Earthquake was a good disaster flick with a dumb ending. I would still recommend it if you want to watch a disaster flick.
So undoubtedly you, lovely and intelligent reader have probably heard about The Witcher dev's big get for their upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 game: Keanu Reeves.
Clearly, they're banking on his huge role in the blockbuster film Johnny Mnemonic. And probably those Matrix movies too, but nobody remembers those things.
Joking aside, the trailer looks amazing, but some actual gameplay footage would be nice too. The game is supposed to come out next year and it's been in development for a while I believe, so there should be some available.
Wooooooooooooow. I know this isn't tied to the MCU, so obviously the characters aren't going to have the actors' likenesses (which probably saved Square Enix a boatload of money in licensing fees) but good Time Lord, this look like the Avengers didn't feel like assembling (Good Omens just dropped, after all) so they sent their understudies instead. Seriously, Cap looks like my older brother, just with more hair.
On the plus side, Black Widow looks like Terry Farrell and I can't knock that.
Now let's look at the trailer.
So clearly this is a case where you can't base your opinion solely on the former, but have to watch the latter. Guilty as charged. I was fully prepared to condemn this game as crappy cash-in on a popular franchise done on the cheap, so I'm glad I watched the trailer because it does the game more justice than the picture ever will. The character models need some work, that's obvious and hopefully Square will use the money that they saved by not licensing the MCU cast's likenesses, but the game doesn't look as bad as I thought it would be based on just that picture.
As soon as I saw this Captain Marvel keychain at Walmart a couple of months back, one thought immediately jumped to mind: that would make a nice necklace.
Now, I'm not crafty like at all (AT.ALL.), but I figured that I could do this without a trip to the emergency room or a call to the fire department.
✨So crafty!✨
I was correct. Obviously, it wasn't Tony Stark building a suit of powered armor out of scrap and junk. All I had to do was remove the big ring and loop one of those beaded chains through the smaller ring. I'm not a big necklace wearing fella, but I like it. I might replace the chain later on.
Sue must use her powers a lot for *ahem* extra support.
Because holy crap. This sort of thing just makes me cringe because Sue's bust-size is clearly aimed at a male audience who get off on this kind of thing. Unfortunately, it looks ridiculous.
Also, how is she standing on that piece of debris? It's not level, so she should be falling on her face. Just saying.
I tried to find a version of this that had more legible text, but Google failed me, so click to embiggen.
The thing I like about this ad is the way Henry Rollins and Terry Ellis are posed. Their respective list of things that they have on their Apple PowerBooks is interesting too: Ellis's list is mundane and boring, while Rollins' list shows a surprisingly writery side of a man more famous for spoken word performances than putting pen to paper.
I saw this ad while browsing* a website the other day and had to screencap it for obvious reasons:
Good (time) lord, how can that dude even hear with those cauliflowered things? Let that be a lesson, kiddos: don't become an MMA fighter unless you want your ears to look like that.
*Yes, I use uBlock, but I turn it off for certain sites if I use them frequently enough.
I typically don't watch much TV to begin with and it gets scarcer as the few shows I do watch end, so I've been checking movies out from the local library to watch. I've got a couple movies to watch today - Jurassic World and Fallen Kingdom - and I'll start on one of the two crime shows I checked out the other day. Broadchurch and Prime Suspect. I'm sure Tim Knight from HeroPress will perk right up when he see's those last two titles.
