#DendensMusicDen. Day 131. I've grown to appreciate Barbra Streisand as an actress and as a singer since I've seen and heard more of her besides her (admittedly hilarious) role in Meet The Fockers. One Voice is phenomenal. It's not usually my kind of music, but her voice is so beautiful. #MusicSky

Also, it looked absolutely gorgeous. Fret not, Ratchet & Clank-fans. I will still move on to the “real” Ratchet & Clank games someday, and the Future-saga as well, and judge them on their own merits. (6/6) #GameSky #RollercoasterTycoon #RatchetAndClank #Shadowrun

229. Ratchet & Clank (2016)
230. Shadowrun Returns
231. Rollercoaster Tycoon 3
232. Warlords Battlecry II

Warlords Battlecry II was good for quite a few fun hours with friends back in the day, but like Submarine Titans, (1/6)

Thank you so much, my sweetest @paulinewrites.bsky.social. I can't wait to dive into the first issue of A Profound Waste of Time, especially the article with Ashly Burch reflecting on her perfomance as Chloe in Life Is Strange. #GameSky #PhysicalMedia #BookSky #AProfoundWasteOfTime #LifeIsStrange

Done with my first three hours or so of the Appendices, Part 7: A Long-Expected Journey (part 1). It brings me back to the obsession I had for Peter Jackson's King Kong, and nothing changed since then. I just love watching the filmmaking process of movies I adore. #MusicSky #PhysicalMedia #TheHobbit

You can really feel it boiling during the climactic picnic, threatening to disrupt the whole thing and possibly damaging an important alliance between America and England. (8/8) #MovieSky #FilmSky #PhysicalMedia #Bluray

Olivia Wilson was a strong Eleanor Roosevelt, constantly making one guess what her true intentions are on how to treat British royalty, both the royal couple and the viewer. The event depicted here is told through the perspective of Roosevelt’s distant cousin and aid Daisy, (4/8)

#DendensMovieDen. No. 130. Hyde Park on Hudson. Bill Murray shines as Franklin D. Roosevelt in a charming movie centered around the weekend in 1939 when the King and Queen of England visited the U.S. while trouble was brewing in Europe.

In a stage of his career where (1/8)

Downfall was a strong pseudo-sequel to The Cat Lady, though its more straightforward narrative left it a lot less memorable. I’ll lower it in ranking a bit. (6/6) #GameSky

233. Downfall
234. Oddworld: Munch’s Odyssee
235. Rival Schools: United By Fate
236. Grand Theft Auto 2

The only 2D GTA I remember fondly enough to give it a ranking, and it’s fairly high and stays that way. (1/6)

A really solid racer from the short playing session I had testing it, that actually feels quite realistic, as far as driving a remote-controlled car in a racing game would feel realistic. (2/2) #GameSky #PhysicalMedia #Playstation #PS1 #Racing

#DendensGamingDen. Playstation 2024 purchase 126. Re-Volt. I used to play this quite a lot, even though I hardly remember much of it. Playing it again now felt good, however. (1/2)

but nothing too taxing. Just take your time. Those dragons aren’t going anywhere. My recent playthrough allowed me to experience the true power of the original Spyro, and that’s to get lost in another world and go with the flow. What a beautiful experience. Ranking it much higher now.(8/8) #GameSky

237. Spyro the Dragon
238. Star Wars Bounty Hunter
239. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (Wii)
240. A Bug’s Life (PS1)

As much as I adore Toy Story 2, I struggled so much with its predecessor A Bug’s Life. (1/8)

#DendensMusicDen. Day 130. Despite starting with the most overplayed and possibly a tad overrated Give A Little Bit, Even in the Quietest Moments...continues the hot streak of creative and commercial success Supertramp had in the '70s, including one of my favourite songs ever: #MusicSky #Supertramp

Unfortunately, it appears as though Link’s Awakening and the Oracle-games more compact worlds and clearer sense of direction are much more to my liking in 2D Zelda and it will be a while before I try this one again. Until then, I’m certainly not lowering its ranking, at least. (8/8) #GameSky

241. The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past
242. Colin McRae Rally
243. Deponia
244. Deadly Creatures

As someone with arachnophobia, who has had the odd scare from digital spiders in movies and video games, playing as one did not faze me at all. (1/8)

However, what I found most interesting now is seeing Dan Akroyd trying to prove he could do drama, before he had to spend years trying to prove he could be funny again. If I have to be completely honest, that was the real tragedy here. (6/6) #MovieSky #PhysicalMedia #DVD #MyGirl
November 11, 2025 at 6:55 AM
as does Jamie Lee Curtis’ Shelley as Harry’s new receptionist. It’s a pretty realistic drama, but it’s mostly surface level stuff with a few laughs and a few tears. At least it’s not as melodramatic as ‘90s drama movies tended to be, which is why I think (3/6)
November 11, 2025 at 6:55 AM
#DendensMovieDen. No. 129. My Girl. An old favourite from my childhood. A charming coming-of-age comedy drama, that was also a traumatizing one, as other people of my generation probably are well aware of.

Looking back now, it’s not exactly an outstanding story, (1/6)

It could be problems with my depth perception, but the controls did not work well for me as I kept bumping into stuff or falling off cliffs. But man, that atmosphere and artstyle was just *chef’s kiss*. (5/5) #GameSky #NES #LodeRunner #Popeye #LittleNightmares #HogwartsMystery

245. Little Nightmares
246. Lode Runner (NES)
247. Popeye (NES)
248. Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery

Hogwarts Mystery kept me hooked for quite a few years, as the second most addictive mobile game I ever played. It was more of an interactive story, (1/5)

All too familiar feeling. This little guy steps on me every morning. It's awesome. 😁
