Liking the game OK... although not nearly as enjoyable as BF1 or even BFV. The maps are much smaller and so TTE is way too fast feels more like a COD game pace. But some maps are better then others and less hectic. They just announced some new and bigger maps on the way so hopefully that happens...

I’m running three identical subs for the above reasons. The coverage feels very balanced and uniform across the room.

Seasonal holiday mini playlist for my morning commute... the mythical five continuous riff tracks from metal war gods Bolt Thrower. Plus I added Ritual and Beyond the Wire just because they also fall in line nicely. Feels so Christmas-ey driving to work now.

BF6 rollout has been pretty good. Love the cinematic look and feel of the game. Love the fun aspects of switching from ground troops to land and air vehicles like several totally different games within the game. Don't love the infamous bullet bloom bug hopefully they will patch that up from what...

Saw this yesterday morning... Sisu: Road to Revenge... it was a gratuitous sequel that probably didn't need to be made. But if they make twelve more sequels I will go see all of them. There is no such thing as too much Sisu.

Watched the latest Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood, Boogie Nights, Punch Drunk Love, Magnolia, etc.) flick One Battle After Another with Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio del Toro and others. Sean Penn stole the movie IMO... not really a stretch of a role he was just particularly...

Blasphemy!

I think it would be important to have seen the first Predator just for creature origin/groundwork/background and maybe also Prey since this was the kickoff of the "better" sequels. None of the other Predator sequels are super important or worth watching IMO. And if you know what an Alien is...

My gaming pals all upgraded their consoles a while ago while I have been clinging to my XBOX One mostly because I don't have a 4K TV and if it ain't broke why replace it. It was not an issue for the games we have been playing together (primarily Destiny and previous Battlefield installments...

Next up on our theatrical movie theater list if we can get to all these before they leave circulation... 1. Bugonia 2. Keeper 3. Sisu: Road to Revenge 4. Tron: Ares Next up on demand... 5. Anemone Also watched the new Del Toro Frankenstein on Netflix. It was beautifully filmed with great...

Enjoyed the new Predator movie. It had some campy humor moments maybe more then I would have liked but it didn't ruin the movie for me. Plenty of Predator and Alien homage moments to previous films and a nice continuation/progression of the tie ins between the two franchises. Happy to see...

Let me know what you think. I could probably be convinced to see it if it’s as much of an IMAX/XD spectacle as Legacy… even if it’s lacking in substance.

Agreed my appreciation for Legacy was solely based on the in theater IMAX experience and technical merit. I was definitely willing to overlook a lot of critical content while I enjoyed the spectacle. Admittedly there was a little nostalgia as well having seen the original Tron in theater with...

D'oh. Had tickets and ended up cancelling them after seeing some reviews. I'm sure it's still great eye/ear candy but could the reviews be any worse? And I trust Mark Kermode he is my go to YouTube film critic... this is positively brutal...

Binge watched the entire Netflix horror series about Ed Gein this weekend between bike rides, pumpkin farm visit, yard work, etc. Mild Spoiler Warning: No discussion of story or plot details just general observations. Crazy stuff. Very graphic. Main take away was how much this one singular guy...
