Our Favorite Movies Day 12:Child’s Play

Day 12 brings us a class, Child’s Play. By now most of you know this story. Killer dies, uses Voodoo to toss his soul into a Chucky doll., kills people. The formula has worked for decades now. This is also the only horror movie I can honestly say I shared with my father and all of my kids.

It is also worth noting there My Buddy dolls when i was a kid and mine looked just like this creepy bastard. I once tied a knife to it and threw it at my brother. Yes it was a real knife, yes I got in a lot of trouble and yes he punched me. This movie however having released in 1988 has about 30 years of history with 7 movies in all, and no signs of stopping. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

 

For those that are interested in the movies and helping us out, here is a Child’s Play collection on Amazon. Child’s Play on Amazon

Pokemon Sun and Moon (The Series)

As a long time Pokemon fan I decided to check out Pokemon Sun and Moon. I have to admit at first the new art style kinda bummed me out. Ash looked weird and so did team rocket. The story is also a bit weird with Mr. Mime clearly cheating to win Ash and his mom tickets to the Alola region. Speaking of which I have some serious questions about the relationship between Ash’s mom and Mr. Mime.

All that aside the basic story isn’t bad. Ash attends a school for kids because we all know ash has been 12 for 20 years now. The issue is after 43 episodes he spent most of his time at the school. On occasion they would leave to check out a different island and he does get through a couple of the challenges. But the entire series is mostly just watching him go to school. The true greatness comes in episode 42 and 43 is when they return to the Kanto reason for those episodes.

This also brings the return of Misty and Brock to meet the new crew and hang out with Ash, where you will also see Ash and Misty battle with Misty having a Mega Evolution now. The series isn’t bad, it is just quite a bit different. Tho to me it did feel like the worst in the series. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our Favorite Movies Day 11: IT (2017)

It (2017) Yes I will say it, feel free to hate me. IT 2017 is far better than the original. I thought this when I checked out 2017 in the theaters, but recently I went back and watched the original and it was legitimately painful to watch. 2017 made this list for being both a great movie and a movie that surprised me most recently. I thought this movie was going to be horrible. From the fact it would be split in 2 to not Tim being Pennywise made this a recipe for a bad movie. What we got however was an amazing movie any horror fan would be doing themselves a disservice skipping. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Like we have been doing lately, here is a link to Amazon where you can purchase this movie. It helps us as well as gets you the movie. It 2017 on Amazon

Joe Rogan: Strange Times (2018)

download (4)

Joe Rogan is back with his rather brash brand of comedy. This time around he will attack such topics as mens activist, cats being psychotic murderers and the fact that a woman invented the dishwasher and a man invented the tampon. Both of these are true by the way. Dishwasher was invented by Josephine Cochrane and the tampon by Earle Haas. Another story he tells is about a girl giving a BJ, getting stabbed which somehow results in her becoming pregnant and having a kid 9 months later by C-section because she has no vagina. Also a true story, I checked.

He of course tells these stories in a much more fun way but I am just saving you the time of googling it like I did. This one definitely  comes recommended. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our Favorite Movies Day 10:Birds(1963)

Alfred Hitchcock made quite the simple movie here. Birds for some reason attack people. The magic of this movie is that we have all seen birds just hanging out, and I dare you to watch this movie and not wonder if those birds sitting on your cloths line or power line are going to kill someone.

That is why this classic is on the list for me. It was probably the first horror movie I have seen that made me think in the real world this stuff could happen. And I know @torstenvblog in real life, we hang out and drink together, and have worked together at real life jobs. The dude is semi afraid of birds and I mean that legitimately. Not like outside terrified of them, but he got one in his house and me and 2 other friends had to go over to his house and get them out. His reasoning was he saw Birds. That is a 100% true story that happened this summer, and that is why this movie deserves to be on the list. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Supernatural Season 13

download

Supernatural Season 13 deals with the son of Lucifer, Jack. Sam and Dean will travel across dimensions to save Jack and their mother Mary from a dimension where Sam and Dean were never born and the apocalypse was never stopped. The race itself is rather interesting since Lucifer wants to save his son simply because he is the most powerful entity in the universe besides God and his Sister. In fact Jack can even create new angels, which is why Heaven wants him so badly.

The issue is while in the apocalypse world their archangel Michael decides he wants to come to our world and take over since his world is kind of a hell hole. See their Michael is a lot like our Lucifer in the sense that he just wants to rule everything and doesn’t much care who gets hurt in the process. Season 13 is great but it does have its high and low moments. The end of it however is worth the entire trip. Obviously I won’t spoil it for you, but we get to see a few things come full circle from far earlier seasons that most people probably didn’t really expect. I am very much looking forward to season 14, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our Favorite Movies Day 9: Jason Goes To Hell

Jason goes to Hell: the Final Friday Is our day 9 favorite horror movie. It is also another movie that is a damn liar when it comes to the title. Tho this movie made the list because for me the ending was iconic and was really our first confirmation that a Freddy Vs Jason (Jason’s side) would actually happen. Just seeing Freddy’s hand rip Jason’s mask down to hell to me was amazing. Me and friends used to debate as kids who would, and that was the first time we saw them together in any capacity. The movie itself was also pretty solid but the ending? That secures it a place from me. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Worst Horror Movie I’ve Seen, 11/11/11

Every so often I see a bad movie. Its kind of the nature of the beast, I also occasionally play some real crap games. It happens and I accept that. It isn’t very often I see a movie i consider a complete waste of time tho. This one tho, probably takes the cake in the shit sandwich department. Seriously, this thing has a huge 7% on rotten tomatoes and I feel that might be way to high. If you care about the god awful story you can read about it on Wikipedia but I don’t even suggest that. It is about as cliché as it comes and revolves heavily around the date being 11/11/11, no longer believing in god, a child being the Antichrist and I am fairly sure there was an Indian burial ground in there as well.

The acting, the script the whole movie was just bad. There really weren’t any redeeming qualities to speak off, just don’t watch this movie. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our Favorite Movies Day 8: Evil Dead

Evil Dead is a 1981 Sam Raimi horror movie that is, well pretty much a cult classic. It has everything you could want, death, gore, nudity,a cabin in the woods. The only real issue is to me it was always more funny to me than anything. I feel like a lot of others felt the same way considering how the sequels were made. I actually first saw this movie hammered with friends and me and his wife annoyed him to no end when we talked through the entire movie making fun of the outdated effects. And yes, I was way under age to be drinking. I loved the movie and I still like tossing it on every so often, and you should definitely check this one out. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailers

Later this month what will probably be the game of the year releases, Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2. The game is shaping up to be pretty great, with hunting and shopping and a huge world to explore. A very dangerous world, see for example if you decide to wantonly kill people thats fine, but their families might just decide to kill you later. Recently game play trailers have released and i wanted to drop them in one place for you guys.
