Watched this movie. Has a good story and dynamic for the characters, but maybe not executed fully well? Some scenes don't connect well or confuse me, and the conclusion is underwhelming. Bob's character is my fave, and he's a treat to watch as usual. Okay. #APrayerForTheDying

Watched this movie. A little hard to understand and follow at first, but when I eventually pieced it together, I realised it's a rather heartbreaking story. I could feel George's emotions and thoughts as events unfolded, which means Bob performed amazingly. Enjoyed. #monalisa

Watched this movie. Bit hard to follow and understand at times, but I don't like the protag. Characters are forgettable. The story does have some interesting dynamics. Bob Hoskins is my fave character by far and was a treat to watch. Mixed. #TheHonoraryConsul

Rewatched this movie. Picks up after the 2nd movie in a weird way, which makes the story incoherent and confusing. Alice seems way overpowered that it makes the villains not threatening. Action scenes aren't great, and it feels more like a Mad Max movie. Not great. #ResidentEvil

Watched this movie. Bit hard to follow and understand, but I do like the detective aspect. Characters are a little forgettable. Some great quotes and scenes, and I enjoyed the shower scene. Bob Hoskins performed greatly and was a real treat to watch. Enjoyed. #TheLongGoodFriday

Watched this movie. Good acting, but the characters and the whole story are weird and hard to understand. I don't really understand the point/meaning of this movie. Bob Hoskins steals the show and is my fave character, though. Kinda boring. #Inserts

Watched this series (S4). Develops Pharaoh more and is very much his arc. New characters are ok, but Dartz is a little boring/forgetful and has no repercussions for his actions. Climax is spectacular and goes full-on anime. Not my fave season, but still good. #yugioh

Rewatched this movie. Largely inspired by RE3, and imitates the horror and low ammo from the games. Some action scenes are too silly and belong in Matrix, but still fun. The Nemesis fight is still lame. Better CGI. The Code Veronica reference is great. Fun watch. #ResidentEvil

Rewatched this movie. Forgettable characters, weird action scenes, and poor pacing. CGI has aged badly, and story is very loose to the source material. Kinda a bad movie that's fun to watch. Laser room scene is still the best part. Not great. #ResidentEvil

Rewatched this movie. The animation and detail are so much better, and some dark moments, too. More mature than the series. The story is decent, but maybe not executed to its fullest potential. New monsters don't get enough screen time, and Anubis is underwhelming. Okay. #yugioh

Watched this series (S3). The Noah arc feels out of place and is really sudden, but then it doesn't affect the story much going forward. The conclusion to the Battle City arc is spectacular and suspenseful, but certain flashbacks and scenes do drag on a bit. Good season, #yugioh

My Skies of Arcadia FGGYZ beside their F4F statues. Now waiting for F4F Vyse 2, but I like how it's turning out so far. Thank you so much for all the Skies merchandise, F4F and FIGGYZ! Hopefully we'll see more from Skies ;) #figgyztreasure #figgyz #F4F

Rebeat this game. Very fast-paced, great boss battles, good characters, and decent story with serious stakes. Levels can be a bit hard to navigate, and VA is so bad it's good. Incredible OST. This game kicks so much butt! Love! #FreedomPlanet

The Skies of Arcadia FGGYZ arrived! I'm so happy to add these to my collection beside their F4F statues. Thank you so much for all the Skies merchandise, F4F and FIGGYZ! I even pulled a silver plate with Fina. How fitting ;) #FiGGYZTreasure #Figgyz

Rewatched this movie. Story is pretty accurate to the source material, and Angelina portrays Lara well enough. 1st half is decent with some good fight scenes, but 2nd half falls apart IMO. I like the inclusion of puzzles to simulate the games. Decent, but kinda bad. #TombRaider

Watched this series (S2). I like that the duelling rules are more similar to the TCG. I find Marik rather annoying with an irritating voice. The tone is darker and more serious, and the stakes are higher. Think I enjoy the story of S1 more, though. Still a good season. #yugioh

Beat this game. Gorgeous visuals, andplenty of atmosphere and emotion. Controls well, but Ori can be slippery and imprecise at times. Great level design, but some fast parts are too sudden and unfair. Ending is too sudden and anticlimactic. Good OST. Great! #OriAndTheBlindForest

Rewatched this movie. Terrible acting, has some decentish fight scenes, and likeness to characters isn't great. First half is watchable, but the rest kinda falls apart in pretty much every way IMO. Awful last fight. Okayish entertainment, but just kinda bad. #DoubleDragon

Watched this movie. Acting is kinda mixed, and scenes/pacing is too drawn out and slow IMO. Jumpscares weren't that impactful. Meh. #TheManWithTheBlackUmbrella

Beat this game. Lovely art style and good OST, but it's a step back from Super Star in every way. Boring/uninspired level design, controls are sluggish, bland boss battles, and friends are tedious to play. I wanted this game to be over, and that's not good. Dislike. #Kirby

Rebeat this game. Nostalgia aside, this game is still so good. Controls well, fast and exhilarating battles, copy abilities have expanded movesets, fun stories, awesome OST, and great level design. Establishes the core experience for the series going forward. Love! #Kirby

Beat this game. Improves upon the 1st game, but not as good as the NES game. Introduction of friends adds more depth and movesets. Ok levels, and good music. It's ok. #Kirby

Beat this game. A technical marvel on the NES. Establishes many core mechanics the series is known for, like the copy ability. Creative levels and boss fights that show what the NES is capable of. Frequent slowdown does impact gameplay and can make it frustrating. Enjoyed. #Kirby

Beat this game. Controls are slippery and kinda sluggish, and the lack of copy abilities feels weird. But still a solid game and a strong start to the franchise. Many iconic bosses and music tracks make their debut here. Good. #Kirby

Watched this series (S1). As someone who's familiar with the TCG, this season was both enjoyable and frustrating. Story, character development, and motives are well established, but the rules on duelling are wrong. Still a fun watch and a strong start to the show. Like. #yugioh
