Music Reviews: keep it going!!!-xaviersobased

I know nothing about this artist. He also doesn’t seem like a real person. The beats and bars are repetitive, clawing melodies out of jarring rythyms that don’t work the first 5 times you hear them. Then, somehow, after xaviersobased says it for the 6th time, it sort of works

The Finals! A hot new freemium/Battle Pass game from Embark Studios, makers of…..(looks it up)….ARC Raiders and wim (literally what it’s called). Never heard of them. However, I’ve heard of The Finals. I’ve been watching it on Twitch since it was in pre-release.

Lego Fortnite: First Impressions After 10 Hours

If Lego Fortnite was a finished game being sold in stores, you’d think it’s fun, but a little underwhelming. But as a free live-service game in it’s first update cycle, it shows a tremendous amount of potential.

Gate of Hell Foresaw The Incel

Today we’re talking about Gate of Hell, a 1953 jidaegeki (period drama) film. Set in 12th Century Japan, the movie focuses on a samurai Endō Morito, and his obsession with a lady-in-waiting Kesa. It’s not a classic love story. It’s actually a painful and scary love story, mainly because it’s so realistic.

Cruising: A Review Pt. 1

A cruise ship is a very strange place. There’s unlimited food, unlimited drinks and pretty much everything to do. The ship I was on had a waterslide, hot tubs, swimming pools, a basketball court, like 15 bars…I mean it was basically a floating city block.

New York 9s: Subnautica

The darkness beneath me seems to go on forever. The sonar pings and outlines the world in red. Technically, I can’t see anything. But I know where everything is. And I know at the top of the mountain is a Reaper Leviathan. The rules are simple: stay away.

Christmas Classics: Exmas

With Hallmark movies you know what you’re gonna get. Some bad acting, puzzling writing at times and some very predictable arcs. Exmas, for the most part has none of those things.

Subnautica Below Zero Review: A Fragile Peace

The East Artic is sparse and empty. Glow whales sing and dive gently about 50 meters below the surface. All types of alien fish swim around my sub as it plows through the frigid waters of Sector Zero.

Hawkeye: Really Fun, Really Weird

I love dark, ugly superhero movies but it’s hard not to appreciate some good pastiche. What makes Hawkeye a joy to watch is that it is fully aware that its tone is all over the place, it’s plots are sporadic and occasionally unserious and its characters are extremely zany. It just doesn’t care.
