Rapier wit. Eclectic humor. Melodic bass voice. Pretty good meatloaf.

For what it's worth, spaces I control (my home, my socials, my streams, my comments sections) will remain as welcoming and safe as I can make them.

As ever, bigotry, cruelty, harassment, and disinformation will be removed and purveyors of such will be blocked.

Weapons - Dynamite premise. Well shot. Interestingly structured. Kinda boring.

BUT!!!

The climax is so AMAZINGLY goofy that it made up for the whole thing and I'm glad I watched it!

Nintendo: What will it take for you to make us another Smash Bros.?

Sakurai: My own Nintendo Direct for Kirby Air Riders.

N: Done.

S: Feature length.

N: ...like 70 minutes?

S: No, I'm thinking like an hour forty.

N: Uh, can we split it in two parts?

S: That'll cost you 5 amiibo.

And... it's not playing my drive-in.

Well, poop.

And yes, that's George Romero's kid writing and directing. Hope she knocks it out of the park!

Lake Mungo - Faux-documentary about a family who might be haunted by the ghost of a recently deceased member.

Neat idea, does a nice job of keeping you guessing whether it's ghosts or not, and has a decently original payoff but overall is just kind of dull.

With Keleigh's absence, I'm going to pull Hunt a Killer (the tabletop, investigative mystery game) from the schedule and save it for next year. It just wouldn't be very fun playing solo.

But hey, that means more time for Trails!

Andrew Eisen @andreweisen.bsky.social · 5d

Sad news. Unfortunately, my sister Keleigh will not be able to come out for the Extra Life marathon this year.

Keep an eye out for her in that chat though, she should still be making her presence known!

Granted, it appears mainly as a device to cross-promote the Pikmin Bloom phone app but still, a bit odd. Nintendo's gonna Nintendo!

Andrew Eisen @andreweisen.bsky.social · 5d

Pikmin 4 is getting an update next month to add photo mode, hard/easy difficulties, and hidden pikmin wearing funny hats.

That's cool and all but the game came out over two years ago so seems a little late to the party.

Hey, a new Debut Review! Haven't had done one of these in a while.

Today, I take a gander at the first episode of THE SUMMER HIKARU DIED. Does the protagonist like Hikaru for Hikaru or will any organism inhabiting his corpse do to stave off loneliness?

I'm disgusted but also morbidly curious.

But not $5.49 curious.

"The vision that we have is: let’s rewrite the entire operating system around AI, and build essentially what becomes truly the AI PC."

Please don't.

Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it

Copilot Voice and Vision are now rolling out.

Magic Knight Rayearth? No, that's cool but like Cat's Eye, I'm kinda surprised this is getting remade before some others.

What's next? Super GALS? Kimagure Orange Road? Battle Athletes?

Will Cujo work when the antagonist is a disgusting animal that I wouldn't want anywhere near me even if it couldn't rend me limb from limb?

Guess we'll find out!

Oh, for fuck's sake, YouTube is placing AI generated summaries right under video descriptions which are ALREADY summaries. Summaries written by actual people. Like, specifically, those involved in the production of the video.

It's all just so fucking stupid.

Keleigh’s superhero Double Feature concludes with The Incredible Hulk.

Next month, we’re mandating movies that make you say, “What Did I Just Watch?”

I think one of my neighbors got a new exercise bike because my TV keeps trying to connect to it!

Andrew Eisen @andreweisen.bsky.social · 15d

Sorry folks. Gotta cancel the podcast. I've lost my temper and am in an extremely foul mood. No one needs to see that.

Hopefully I'll chill out for tomorrow's Sunday Stream.
