"Darn it, where the hell's the Monster Hunter showcase that was supposed to be today? The video isn't on the YouTube channel and nothing's streaming on Twitch. I better check their social media and see what excuse they...
Oh.
Oooooh.
Oh shit. Yeah, that's understandable."

Apollo 18 - Found footage movie of a secret Apollo 18 mission where the DoD sent astronauts back to the moon under false pretense.
Fun premise and decent execution. One of the better uses of found footage (it makes sense why everyone has a camera and is recording everything).

Black Friday - There's a bit where the surviving employees are holding out in the backroom and share a Thanksgiving with each other using deli meat they found in the breakroom fridge.
That's such a great idea I wish this were a good movie because that probably would have been the best scene.

Despite their strong designs, none of the the FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S characters come close to the genuine, off-putting horror of this image of Mario that Nintendo hilariously used a decade ago for the hardware reveal of the original Switch.

Nosferatu - I loved it.
Looks gorgeous, wonderful sound design, and bonkers in the most delightfully po-faced way! Two kids die, two corpses shtupped, two mustaches as bristly as a push broom, and three adorable kitties!
Now, if this was a musical, it might be the best movie ever!

Facebook really, really, REALLY wants me to know about Avantgardey, which appears to be a dance group of some sort.
Yeah, Facebook. I got it. They seem fun.
Maybe someday I'll look into who they are and what they do.
Granted it took me 20 years to check out Beyoncé so it might be a while.

The first FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S was quite well reviewed but I thought that while it started strong, it got progressively worse as it went, ending up a genuinely terrible film.
The sequel is getting poor reviews so will I think it's the worst thing ever or good actually?

Samus's bike has the ability to play the tunes that are already in the game you paid $70 for but if you want to listen to them, you'll have to pony up an extra $30 for an amiibo.
That amiibo won't unlock different skins for your bike though. You'll have to buy a different, $40 amiibo for those.

Sing 2 - The script is way too fast and loose with the narrative, it's inaccurate in its depiction of how musical theater is staged, and it's a horrible, filthy jukebox musical (ptooey!) but it's visually attractive, most of the characters are cute, and a lot of the humor lands.

You know what the one thing all jukebox musicals could do that would make them infinitely better?

I know, I know. I'm sorry! I try not to be a pain in the ass when it comes to these things but I keep failing! I'm a failure! WAAAAHHHH!!!
Okay, back to SING 2.
