#119: Pokémon Legends: Z-A
I definitely prefer Z-A over Arceus, although I have to admit that making battles real-time is a little too janky at times
I'm not super keen on most of the new Megas, but some are still pretty cool
This might have some of the best NPCs in any Pokémon game

#118: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
I think I kinda hate the remaster. Whilst they kept the spirit of the original in some ways, I just can't get past the 7th gen brown filter over literally EVERYTHING
But yeah no the original's great, it's like 75% off on Steam atm, go play that instead

#117: Pokémon: Giratina & the Sky Warrior
A Pokémon movie with direct continuity to the prior one is... weird to process
And the villain is an insane crypto-billionaire with a sky fortress!
These movies sure have a lot of those
As for Shaymin? Into the wood chipper, you little rat fuck!

#114: Back to the Future Part II
Besides the pure hilarity of all the "distant future of 2015" segments a decade later, I think Part II is probably my favourite of the trilogy
The early implementation of CGI kinda still holds up better than most films in the last 10 years

I don't know what it says about Zemeckis making some of the greatest films of the 80s and 90s, then fast forward to the 2020s and he's making the fucking live-action Pinocchio movie

#112: Labyrinth
David Bowie and his balls are basically the highlight here.
But in all seriousness, there's a real charm to this movie. Maybe it's Bowie's energy, maybe it's the fact that it's basically the story of a teenager tripping on DMT in her own room.
Maybe it's just Hoggle's aura

But this movie really has the perfect cast, and that's the best compliment I can give it.
