Rambo 5?

download (2)

No, this isn’t a weird click bate article or even a joke. According to screenrant.com and other sources, while unconfirmed (or maybe confirmed by the time you read this) Rambo 5 is actually in the works with Stallone himself looking to both star in and direct the 5th installment of the series. While the last couple did underwhelming in the box office it could be interesting to see if an older John Rambo would be portrayed as an older man attempting to help a younger man accomplish some impossible mission, or if we simply get an old man gunning down people in a jungle. Either way we will have to wait to see if anything happens, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Mothers of horror

purple dahlia

Happy Mothers Day everyone, from us to you. Without mom, there essentially is no us but even our nightmares have mommies too, or in today’s case, they maybe the nightmare. Today, we’re talking about the moms of horror, in no particular order, let’s begin with…

mrs voorhees 1. Pamela Voorhees (Friday the 13th)

She worked her bum off to give her sweet baby boy Jason a decent life but those damn fornicating teenagers let him drown. So like any good mother, rather than seeking therapy or perhaps trying to avoid this situation, she decided to rid Crystal Lake of those damn fornicating teenagers. Thanks Mrs. V

mrs bates 2. Mrs. Bates (Psycho)

“A boy’s best friend is his mother,” her son once said because it’s true, well, at least to Norman anyway. Norman loved her so much, he never let her go, but did everything he could to make her proud. Thanks Mrs. Bates

mrs white 3.Margaret White (Carrie)

It’s hard trying to bring kids up with good spiritual values and that’s all she tried giving her daughter Carrie. She warned her about those sinning bastards at her school, and gave her life to stop her enraged daughter from hurting all those innocent folks in town. Thanks Mrs. White.

queen 4. Queen Alien (Aliens)

Moms are strong, beautiful, intelligent, and organized and the Queen herself is the greatest in the galaxy, receiving thousands of gifts from the hordes of her children as she gives us all the gift of yummy eggs. Thanks your highness.

Happy Mother’s Day and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Rage:Carrie 2 (1999)

images

Every so often I hear someone complain that we are getting a sequel we don’t need. I always find this to be an odd statement because really we don’t need any movie. They are simply made to entertain. They are all pointless and unneeded so they all become needed to be made from the standpoint of their creator. That being said, once in a while I come across a movie I watch and I realize I am being way to literal, and this is what they mean by we don’t need this movie.

That is not to say the movie was terrible. I can’t honestly say it was some flaming dumpster fire and nobody should ever watch it. The acting was good, the visuals were nice, the sound was good enough but could have used some better music I thought. I mean come on, it was the late 90’s and the movie cost you 21 million bucks to make and you couldn’t be me some good tunes? The movie was a flop by the way, grossing only 17 million on that 21 million budget and it isn’t hard to see why. have you seen Carrie (1976) ? If the answer is yes than you have essentially seen this one. The movie takes place 20 years after Carrie, yes it is a direct sequel. Sue is now the counselor at the new school that replaced the one Carrie torched. Rachel or telekinetic friend is the unknown half sister of Carrie ( same father) and the story goes like this.

Jocks are sleeping with girls at the school for points in a game they are playing, Rachel’s friend gets upset and takes a walk off the top of the school, Rachel and one of the Jocks fall for each other, jocks don’t like it, jocks target Rachel, Rachel goes ballistic at a house party and kills everyone and burns the place to cinders after they show a sex tape her and her boyfriend didn’t know the jocks made. The End. Seriously this is less a sequel to Carrie and more of a re-imagining or retelling. The movie isn’t exactly bad, it is just the same story, and isn’t done as well. Except the end scene where stuff dies, I am willing to debate that those 2 scenes are about equal in quality.

Games I find therapeutic

'We've spent considerable time on it now. Isn't there anything bothering you besides your feet?'

At the end of the day, all we want to do is sit back and relax and for a lot of us, that means curling up with our favorite games. When I feel stressed or bummed, he’s a small list of games that help me chill out, in particular order, lets start with…

arkham city 1. Batman: Arkham City –

I can’t lie, Arkham City has one of my favorite DLC’s ever, Joker’s Funhouse, a special combat map. As the clock goes down you get bombarded with enemies that intensify as you go without being hit. The quick reactions and awesome moves for a lot of my favorite Batman characters, its a fun way to relax and kick ass.

bloodborne 2. BloodBorne

Yharnam is such a kind, loving, beautiful place full of happy welcoming people and cute fuzzy adorable animals. Ok, I maybe a little off, but Bloodborne helps me focus and concentrate, along with the beautiful levels and creature designs, it’s a fun getaway.

fractured 3. South Park: The Fractured But Whole

We all need a laugh now and then, so where better to go than South Park. I love superheroes, I love South Park, and the game is simply just fun with a lot of laughs.

doom 4. Doom

Heavy metal music, epic weapons, insane gore, and never ending waves of the denizens of hell invade Mars. What says another day in the neighborhood?

May the gaming gods bring you glory, and enjoy the weekend everyone.

John Mulaney: Kid Gorgeous (2018)

download

John Mulaney, you silly, silly man. I learned a few things. For started I always thought he was gay. Turns out him and his wife are nothing alike. He tells you this during the pretty funny story of his wife saying its ok to make fun of her except to say she is a stupid bitch and he hates her. Everything else is fair game, and he does sort of find a loophole even for that. Wile not my favorite stand up of his, however this one is still pretty funny. He touches on topics from college to marriage, and is very much enjoyable. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Predator, trailer 1

 

So after a long ass wait, we finally get a peak at the fourth in the Predator series. As well as being a huge Alien fan ( to an unhealthy degree people have said in the past), I do love me some Predator. On the whole, I loved the trilogy and I was excited to get a new movie after eight years.

I’ve got some weird comments, so just be aware. First, I hate when franchises add “The” as part of the title when its just part of the series; years and years ago I remember hearing the Alien prequel would be called “The Alien” and I remember groaning out loud in front of like 30 people. But, I digress.

I do like the suburban setting, which I find refreshing for the series on its own. Even including those abominable AVP movies, the settings were also diverse and the I always wanted to see more Predator, solo, in them; I’d love a Predator movie in the frozen tundra honestly. The Predator looks badass as ever and I’m glad they seem to be back to the more original designs than the more…shall we say different designs of the Predators in the previous film.

In the end, I have a bit of faith in this fourth movie and I hope for the best. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Streets of Rage 3 (Xbox 360)

download (6).jpg

Here we are, the final of the Streets of Rage games in the Sega Vintage collection, and my personal favorite of the 3. It looks the best, plays the best, has the most characters and in general for me was just the most fun. As always it has multiple options to make sure it fits everyone’s screen the right way and once again the game looks and sounds like a pumped up version of its original release. Of all the versions of the streets of rage games I have played to me these seem like the definitive versions. And at the low price of free for Xbox gold members it is pretty much a steal. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
