Winter 2020-2021

 The Lie

The ending feeling like a slap to the face is so perfect. I love it because it's exactly how the main characters feel. Exactly. I recommend it.

Gone Girl

After years of hearing people mention this movie and comparing it to other stories in a way I wasn't sure if it meant it was a good movie or a bad movie...I finally watched it! I loved it. I had no idea what it was about other than it being a mystery and a hint that there was a twist. 

Deadpool

I watched both movies back to back and really enjoyed them. I didn't really care about any other characters but the main one. I did like Lady Luck. Her power sounds dumb but turned out to be really cool and very powerful. The violence in these movies are very entertaining.
It's been awhile since I enjoyed my time watching a movie with my brain turned off.

Attack on Titan season 4

It's fun to see the manga being animated but I'll be honest, some of the 3D looks disappointing. I wish the actions and movements were animated all the same style like the first season. 
But I'm still having fun watching this with my best friend every week. 

Rewatching shows

I fucking loved rewatching The Leftovers with my husband. I was so happy to share that show with him. I'm sad it's over. But I watched Lovecraft Country and it's fun to watch but man...I really love The Leftovers so much. I want to watch it again with someone who hasn't seen it. 

I rewatched Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, The Witcher and The Walking Dead by watching along with people I found on Youtube. One channel is a married couple and I LOVE their reactions because they actually have a good moral compass compared to other fans who are Team Walt or Team Jesse.
I like how these people are open minded to understand characters they hate as well.

 
And the other channel is of these two friends who are both mothers and they are so funny and also have a good moral compass. I recommend checking both of these channel's out:

The married couple

Two funny mothers

The Surge 2

 I love it more than the first one. I hope I'll love the third one more than this one.

The Long Dark

A very relaxing yet challenging game. It's very easy to get into. One of those games I can play while listening to music or a podcast.

The Outer Worlds DLCs

I LOVE the humor in this game. I wish Cyberpunk 2077 has more of a comedic tone like this game. It's so fun to play, that even the bad guys are likeable. These additions to the main story are so good. I hope there's another DLC on the way or that the second game comes soon. 

The only thing this game is missing is letting players have a romantic interest. I love when RPGs let players fall in love with a character. 

Your Honor

I'm so happy this series exists. I love how it scratches the Breaking Bad itch while being a completely different show. The tone is so like Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. It's fun seeing him play as a man in power vs a poor man in Breaking Bad. 

I loved how the season ended as well. Makes me wonder how dark his character becomes. Can't wait! 

Keanu Reeves

Haven't had a celebrity crush since I was a teen but after Cyberpunk 2077, I started to get interested in Keanu because of Johnny Silverhand. I've been watching his movies and thanks to John Wick, I'm now fully obsessed with this man. Been looking up interviews and stuff on Youtube. Learning just how humble Keanu is compared to other famous people, how can I not develop a crush on him?

I hope he stays pure and nice. 

(I think he's great in comedies, he should be in way more funny movies.)

Cyberpunk 2077

The fanfics of Valerie and Johnny is a dream come true. 

I made a podcast episode talking about most of my thoughts on this game so I wont repeat it here. Basically, I really enjoyed this game. Played it three times. 

Check out my podcast: Superior Code

Bad:

Cyberpunk 2077 on PS4 - This game shouldn't of come out yet. It wasn't ready. Lots of people couldn't focused on the story because of how glitchy it was. Shame. 

The Affair - I loved seeing two different perspectives but hated when it changed to seeing other character's perspectives. I think it would've been better if the show only focused on two main characters. Instead of four.... And the show is longer than it should be. Waste of time.

Search Party season 4 - I don't like what they've done to the main character. It would've been fun seeing her become more twisted and evil. But they basically made it so she ends up in a prison anyways. It wasn't good.... At least her friends were funny. I kept watching for them.  

Summer 2020

Watchmen Rewatch

Watching this with my husband was so amazing. I loved seeing his reactions and hearing his thoughts about this show. It's so good! If there's another season I hope I love it just as much.

The Wire

I got HBO for the first time and seen this show was on there and decided to finally watch it. I love Breaking Bad so much and heard from a lot of people that The Wire inspired it. I did enjoy it over all and totally get why people say it's one of the best shows ever. But it was kinda a slow burn for me. I loved the first season and was kinda disappointed that the other seasons hardly kept that same vibe for me.

I'm so happy to know that Omar exists. Totally worth watching this show just for this character. I don't think I'll watch the show again anytime soon but I will watch clips of Omar on Youtube a lot.  

Aggretsuko season 3

This is my new favorite anime at the moment. I wish other romance anime was like this one. I hope they at least take notes because Aggretsuko is very good at showing how complicated relationships can be. It's not the same bullshit drama other romance anime continues to do. These characters actually grow and have hard conversations and realizations. Plus, it has good comedic moments that don't seem childish and out of place. The only thing bad about this show is the episodes are only 15 minutes and there's only 10 episodes. I'm excited for season 4.  

The Signal (spoilers)

I love the idea I read online about the characters being in a computer because of some clues that things didn't load right or at all if it wasn't expecting the boy to go there. Like, the toilets not having wall separators, the clock not working, the road not being finished and food not being in cans. 

Also, his friends never existing but being loaded from his memories and thoughts of what he thinks happened to his friends. So, that's why his friend survives the explosion and a shot to the back and why the men try to keep his arm on the bed when he's trying to reach for his girlfriend's hand. She's not really there.  

Or he could have just been taken to a different planet but I like the idea that he's inside a computer more because I love AI shit so much. 

The Night Clerk (mid spoilers)

I enjoyed how smart this character really is. That ending was such a good way to show us that he was one step ahead the whole time. 

Transformers War for Cybertron

I love this series so much. There's more female Transformer characters in this one than their are in other Transformers shows. So, I hope the next season adds more females because it really needs it anyway. There's only 3... Come on now!

The Witcher books

Loved it.

The only thing I hated was Geralt having sex with a 17 year old girl. Fuck the creator for that. It's like he was thinking, "This is a world where magic, monsters, and elves exists but I want to make sure the story's views the treatment of girls are historically accurate so I can justify my male characters having sex with teens." 

Fuck you.

Vampyr

This game was such a prize. I'm shocked that I didn't hear much about it. The story and characters are so good and well written. I think because of the graphics that it looks like it's just an okay game. But the music and camera shots did really well adding to dramatic scenes. 

I could see this being a good TV show or movie for sure. 

After Party

I loved this game. It's so funny and after watching Lucifer on Netflix, i felt like it had the same feel. This game was such a joy to play.

Gris

Very relaxing game and very pretty. 

Journey

Finally got to play this and it was just okay. I should have played this when it just came out to really enjoy it for it's time. But I'm still happy I played it.

The Long Dark

This game had a cute update. It added Canadian snacks. Plus, there was a temporally a harder winter mode. I beat it and it was fun. Can't wait for episode 4 to come out too.

Breath of the Wild

Another game I'm finally getting to play. It's good but I'm finding it hard to play it for hours like I can with other games. I only play for like an hour then stop for the day. I have no idea why I can't play it longer. Maybe because the story isn't that interesting or because I can't keep using the weapons forever. I don't know but it is fun in short bursts.

Persona 5

This game started off strong but I started to not enjoy it after their upperclassmen joined the team. The story went down hill from there because I found her character so annoying from the start. And I didn't like how the story tried to make her seem so much smarter than everyone else when she just gave commonsense advice and plans. Plus, Mona wont shut up. 

Lucifer season 5

It was great seeing the main character again. The rest of the show is shit tho. Bad writing and bad acting from other characters. Lucifer's character is the only reason I keep watching. 

Working Out

I feel good about doing this. It's been 3 weeks now and I hope I don't give up. I thought about doing a before and after picture but I hate my body right now that I can't stand taking a picture of it. 

Bad Stuff

The Last Of Us Part 2 - I did a whole blog post about this game so read that if you want to know why I hated this 5 out of 5 game. I'm still hurt about what this game gave me. 

Blue Reflection - This game is $60 but looks so much cheaper than Persona 5, which was a $20 game. Such a let down. I'm glad I got it on sale but I still feel like I over paid. 

Spring 2019

New Computer

(Link to picture)

Finally got a new laptop after having our old one for 9 years. Can play lots of indie games I've been wanting to try out. And I missed playing Hearthstone so much. I want to get into Gwent as well.

The Long Dark

I've been wanting to play this game for a long time but I didn't want to play full price. Finally got it on sale for PS4 for just $12. So happy! It's a really relaxing game to play on the easiest setting. 

A nice surprise I found was that the voices for Commander Shepard are the characters you play. 

Both female and male Shepard.

Mercy x Genji is Canon

I never paired them together before but I'm all for it. It's so cute.

I know a lot of people complained about this Overwatch event but I thought it was really fun.

New Fortnite Season

I LOVE sci-fi settings so much right now.

You on Netflix

I really enjoyed this show a lot. Reminded me a little bit of Fifty Shades of Grey. But this main girl is a lot more interesting even though I can't relate to her like I could with the one in Fifty Shades.

I hope there's a season 2 soon.

Lone Echo

I loved the relationship between the two main characters so much! 

A.I. characters that develop emotions in a realistic and believable way is the best. 

I hate when robot characters act too human like the ones in Detroit: Become Human. I thought the robot characters were written so lazy because they gained self awareness and emotions very easily.

They didn't even try to make the robots seem different at all from humans. So, it's commonsense to side with the robots having equal rights in the game. They didn't make it a hard choice to go against them at all because there was nothing to be scared of other than "they took our jobs!" 

I like when robots act like robots with just a little hint of them being alive.

The Walking Dead Season 9

I finally caught up and loved it. I still love this show so much and I'm so happy they gave me hope for my favorite character. Can't wait to see what happens next. I love people vs people. I love drama.

Attack On Titan Manga

I caught up with the manga after watching one of the episodes from Season 3 and got in the mood to read because I couldn't remember what happens beyond the beach episode. 

I'm so happy I caught up. I can't wait to see so many action parts get animated! I love Eren's development and I'm obsessed with Levi again. 

I still really miss Erwin....

The Handmaid's Tale Season 3

I'm so happy to watch more of this show! 

The Bad Stuff

There's a sex game being made called, Subverse and it's for Mass Effect fans but it's aimed towards men only. Shocking.
