Tonight's 🎥: Sunset Boulevard (1950, dir. Billy Wilder). The best film about films ever made? Undoubtedly. One of the all-time great movies, stuffed with an embarrassment of riches, from the writing to performances to production design, cinematography and direction. Savage, melancholy, brilliant.

Happy birthday to Type-Moon member Tsukuri Monoji on January 3!
He is mostly known for being the director of Mahoyo and credited for developing it into a high-quality production. He was also involved with the scripts of F/SN and F/HA such as F/HA's Saber vs Archer.

Replaying the Great Ace Attorney Chronicles just to watch this absolute diva toss copious amounts of wine, glass and bottles all over the courtroom floors for some poor soul to clean up
But in all seriousness Kazuya Nuri really got his team to nail his characters so very well, even w/ 3d handpaint.

Took 68hrs in all. Aoko's belief in Shiki, Arcueid's carefree reign, Ciel's ever loving brace, Shiki's resolve all these makes the remake a wonderful read. Few exposition & new characters addition enrich the already known story. Music is a huge boost up from the original. Kinoko Nasu ✍️🫡

Hotel Dusk Room 215. Good writing, character depth exploration & stories stitched together with finesse. Rotoscope art style is fantastic. Played via emulation, no wonder there's a dedicated fan base on clampshell Nintendo DS hardware. Rika Suzuki is G.O.A.T 🙌👏

Digital dystopian era laden with drm is upon us guys. Really thought Nintendo of all things would be the last harbour of physical media gaming but nope 😔
Nintendo crossed a line. Our findings show, they have the power to retroactively block legally bought physical games from working without updates AND THEY DID SO! Multiple times. Following the introduction of Trojan Horse "game-key card", this is another attack on physical media.
