People are talking about SKYRIM, which reminds me of my failed attempt at playing the VR version. Ten minutes in I took a wrong turn and lost my questline, so I started wandering the sandbox. Eventually I ran into three warrior types who killed me every time I respawned. (1/2)

I don’t often post my #LastFourWatched on #LetterboxdFriday because I post individually as I watch films, but every now and then it’s good to point out movies I enjoyed.
Someday I hope to post four in a row that I enjoyed.
This group came close but MWL was a good movie that didnt click with me.
