The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Here’s a weird fact very few people know about me: I have a heart for musicals. Not all of them and no you won’t see me standing in line for Momma Mia on Broadway, but I love the weird ones. And let’s face it, how many movies are as strange as the Rocky Horror Picture Show?

Brad and Janet are two wholesome young people are newly engaged. After Brad pops the question at the wedding of a mutual friend, they decide to ride off to tell the good news to there mentor and friend, Dr. Everett Scott. As fate would have it though, their car breaks down during a bad storm and the couple wanders to a nearby mansion for assistance. What they find is madness, depravity, sexual awakening, desire, aliens, and the perfect lover. Welcome to the home of Dr. Frank N Furter.

This movie is something everyone should experience at least once, musical fan or not. This movie is fun, absolute batshit but I love it. Tim Curry is a legend if not for anything else, it’s his portrayal of Frank N. Furter. The cast is memorable and the music and dances are infectious. The movie is unexpectedly hilarious and heart felt at times. The only real issue I have is the pacing is off and there are a few parts where the movie feels longer than it should and there is some dragging parts. In the end, while this movie sure as hell ain’t for everybody, I highly recommend and may the gaming gods do the time warp.

Marvel Spider-man: Miles Morales

Marvel's Spider-Man Miles Morales (PS4): Amazon.co.uk: PC & Video Games

Six months after the events of Marvel’s Spider-man (PS4) , Peter Parker has taken young Miles Morales as his protégé in web-slinging after demonstrating his new powers. When Peter and MJ go on a job overseas, Miles is left alone as Spiderman, developing new abilities unlike Peter’s, bio-electricity and camouflage. The young hero is quickly drawn into a conflict between the diabolical Roxxon Corporation led by corrupt hipster Simon Krieger and the extremist high tech group The Underground led by the Tinkerer. Can this young hero handle the forces looming against him as well as his new powers as well as trying to be a good friend and son?

I was excited for this game mainly just to learn about Miles Morales. I don’t really know much about him. This game is well written and Miles is a cool character to follow. Gameplay, while similar to the first game, is addictive as hell with Mile’s new powers and gadgets. Honestly, I appreciated the old/new ratio when it came to the gameplay and it stands solid on its own. While the villain roster is way smaller than the first game, the last 2 boss battles are intense both personally and game wise. While the game isn’t overly long and surely I don’t recommend buying it at full price, it’s a lot more satisfying experience than Resident Evil 3 (2020) was. The only huge drawback I had was the glitches- people would randomly appear on the street and rooftops, guys would get stuck in car doors, the textures would get muddy and once my web zip went nuts. While nothing game breaking, these issues do subtract from the experience. In the end, it was a damn good follow up with some small bugs but well worth playing. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Marvel’s What If…trailer

I’m on the fence here. While I think the concept is cool and the animation is surprisingly good, sadly I think I’m starting to get worn out on the MCU. Bit by bit I find myself feeling fatigue for it. The show looks pretty cool and could be a nice addition to the MCU. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Loki trailer

I’m pretty confused what the hell is going on in this trailer and what the hell is supposed to be going in this show. I love Loki but why did he need a show of his own? He had a great arc throughout the MCU. While I’m not the most versed in Thor’s stories, I hope for the best in this series but I can’t say I’m ecited for it. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Falcon and the Winter Soldier trailer

I have to admit, Falcon’s Cap suit looks pretty badass in real life. With the exception of WandaVision, I’m actually kind of excited for this show on the account of Zemo’s return. While I love Falcon and Soldier, Zemo is one of my favorite Cap villains. So far the show looks pretty awesome and it’ll be fun to see. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

WandaVision trailer 2

Of the 3 Disney+ exclusive MCU shows, WandaVision is the one I’m waiting for the most. After everything we’ve seen, it’s basically the closest the MCU will get to the House of M and frankly I’m glad to see Scarlet Witch get some much needed attention. The show looks interesting and I’m can’t wait for it. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Batman: Soul of the Dragon trailer

Batman has literally been to both sides of the tonal spectrum: from the goofy Adam West show to the gritty, tortured portrayal by Ben Affleck in Batman Vs Superman and with that being said, I don’t know where this goes. With the tone and music, I couldn’t help thinking of a 70’s exploitation film with Batman. While its a different pace from Batman’s recent animated movies, I cant help but wonder how it’ll turn out. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Tom and Jerry trailer 1

There are few times in life where I find myself truly speechless not only as a nerd but as a cognitive, sentient human being. The Tom and Jerry trailer froze made the gears of my mind come to a screeching halt. Why does this movie exist? Why are their good actors in this movie? Didn’t we learn from the Smurfs, Rocky and Bullwinkle, the Chipmunks, and the various Looney Tunes movies that perhaps people aren’t too thrilled to see classic cartoon characters mingling around in the real world? Sadly we haven’t learned. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Sleepaway Camp 3: Teenage Wasteland

Sleepaway Camp III: Teenage Wasteland - Wikipedia

See this poster here, the sexy killer with the butcher knife? Well, forget that because Angela isn’t super sexy or some crap. In fact, I have no idea why this movie is called Teenage Wasteland for that matter. So what could possibly be next for Angela?

Angela is on the run after 2 massacres but duty calls when a new, high profile camp is opening where she last cleaned house. This camp hopes to bridge the gap between the rich and poor and mixing teens from both walks of life. So Angela kills one of the strung out teens and takes her identity, finding her way to a new slaughter…

Ok, Savior and I watched this movie together and I wished I took pictures of our faces during. If the first movie was a B movie and the sequel a C rate film, 3 is a flat D. The kills are neutered and lame. The characters are corny and while you playfully hate these bastards, when it comes times to die its just lame. The ending is just annoying and stupid. In the end, feel free to skip unless you really want a cheap laugh but even then, the first 2 were much better. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers

So how many of us remember that cheesy but lovable B movie slasher classic Sleepaway Camp ? Well, if you haven’t seen it, you definitely owe yourself to see it. Well, for all intents and purposes it’s a horror movie, so of course their are sequels and of course they are aren’t as good as the original but damnit they are there. So what’s next for Angela Baker?

The massacre at Camp Arawak has become legend, as well as the killer. Angela has made a complete turnaround and has now grown into a perky, prudish camp counselor who’s strict and weird but seen as a real goody two shoes. Little do the campers know their dorky counselor is a insane serial killer…

Ok, as far as plot goes, this movie is as basic as you get, like Horror 101 stuff so don’t go into this expecting anything revolutionary. What this movie has is some funny ass moments; by the hammy acting and meta jokes, this movie isn’t here to scare you. I couldn’t help but kind of like Pam Springstein as Angela who reminds of a kid’s cartoon character tossed into a C rate horror comedy. The kills aren’t special nor the score memorable but ok at best. In the end, it’s a blah movie unless you got friends to make fun of it with but if you are solo it’s just bland. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
