I just watched War of the Worlds (2025) out of pure curiosity and like.. it started out 'funny bad' but by the end it was just 'bad bad'.

Almost a 2/10 but nah... this wasn't it... 1/10! No thanks!

I just saw Rocketman and it was really fun! As a musical it was very enjoyable with some bold performances, but as a screenplay it kinda felt like a first draft...

The creative choices didn't feel in service of much, just drifting from song to song. Loved the ending scene though. Overall high 6/10

6/6 stress, 0 hope, 1 shield, 1 hit point - this is what it feels like to barely scrape through combat xD

Finally my Entire Tyranny of Dragons party is finished.
Again sorry for the absence I just couldn't make my hands cooperate but I think that result was worth the several failed attempts I knew I could do better and so I deleted my art repeatedly until I did.

Yay #daggerheart - haven't been a player in a game in so long! Having a great time :) Loving all the little resources I have to use!

#Daggerheart has been a lot of fun so far! My bf is starting up a game of their own on tuesday, can't wait!!!

Got me thinking - I might try converting my #5e magic items over to daggerheart... would be a fun exercise! What do you think?

I finally got around to watching Better Man - the robbie williams bipoic and it was so good!

Had a really good sense of tone in both the writing and the visuals. The effects were great. The story was like any other music biopic, but it was told in such a creative and engaging way. Loved it! 8/10

I just saw the new superman movie and despite expecting it to be mid - it was fantastic!

Good comedy mixed with really strong themes that I connected with - outstanding performances all around but especially Lex Luthor - a lot of style in the action. Everything I could've wanted 9/10

First impressions - man it feels so much cleaner than d&d with so many opportunities to mess with mechanics. Players have a lot of resources, the GM has resources, just stuff to interact with. I like it a lot :)
First session of #daggerheart tonight! Lets see if it wins me over :D

I rewatched Primer and man I love this film! Between three viewings and one youtube summary I now feel like I've got a pretty good grasp on the story.

I love how grounded yet mindblowing it is. Tense, surreal, existential and thought provoking. Truly fantastic. 9/10

I watched Thunderbolts* and it was pretty good! I'm definitely at the point of wanting more from my superhero films and this delivers with its themes. Some great humour too!

It was quite passive viewing though, not really any subtlety to it. Definitely my favourite of the suicide squad movies! 7/10

Anyone tried out #daggerheart yet? I mainly run D&D 5e/5.5e with a bit of Cypher experience too. Thinking about giving it a go but not sure how to feel about the fear resource for action economy.

Sounds like I'm reliant on a randomly acquired resource to do meaningful actions yknow.. Any thoughts?

I just watched The Phoenician Scheme and it was great! I'm generally a fan of Wes Anderson, I always find myself completely sucked into the experience. This was no different.

Very fun, great imagery and presentation, just flew by. It's a very high 7/10 from me! Great watch :D

Struggling to find time and energy to do everything I want to do, including being active on socials, but at least I still get a bi-weekly #dnd game in :) Arc 1 boss fight concluded!

Got to run my first #dnd game with the new monster manual! Gotta say, loving how readable the new blocks are. It was only a Hill Giant and some Axe Beaks but still.. Such a nice redesign :D

I watched Passengers (2016) and I struggled to like much about it, but what really bothered me was how forced the premise felt - I was never satisfied by answers given to "why can't we try X and Y to fix this".

It had some good moments of emotion, but it was in service to a really dumb film 3/10

I watched The Greatest Beer Run Ever and I ended up loving this way more than expected! It started out fine, the lead was obnoxious but nuanced, and it got better and better as I watched more.

Insanely interesting premise, based on a true story. Really got into it. 7/10
March 3, 2025 at 2:05 PM
I watched The Gorge (2025) and it started out really great! I loved the romance that developed in this strange and mysterious scenario but after the half way point, it just devolved into the most generic sci-fantasy action slop...

Would've honestly made a great video game premise tbh - 4/10 movie
