FEN1X 64

15/10, the first movie was as close to perfect as Western movies got for me. This one and Beyond the Spiderverse are aiming for a perfect trilogy. It's so good, go watch it if you can.

To call this movie impactful would be an understatement. It is easily the most sobering portrayal of any war I've ever seen. All Quiet 2022 uses every tool in it's arsenal for one purpose, to show the audience what war is truly like. There is no glory, no heroes, no meaning in you death. War is a sham: a boring, bloody, and brutal sham. These young boys get wrapped up in the nationalist propaganda pushed on them by their seniors. Old men talk, young men die. That's just the message. This movie does so much better due to the time it came out. The soundtrack is strange and repetitive at first but as you listen to it, you realize each track has purpose. The industrial feel to it, it goes far beyond what most movies do for a 'score' (trendy music at the time or generic orchestra). The special effects are unrivaled. The CG is barely noticeable, the corpses are superbly made, and the set pieces breathtaking. I used to think the opening sequence of Saving Private Ryan was as brutal and violent as cinema could get but oh boy was I wrong. The 1930 and 1979 versions will never top 2022's in this regard. This movie takes liberties here and there and I feel like it was warranted. People get mad at adaptations for being too close to the source material or detracting too much from it; so in this regard, I think there's some people who are lost causes. I figured I throw this in but the color grading is top notch. The blues and reds pop so much in each shot. The blood of the soldiers and blue of the French stand out quite a bit. It all comes to a head in the crater scene, I don't normally cry at anything but this scene broke me. This movie is superb and it deserves better treatment. The hipsters telling you to just go watch the 1930s one are off the mark, this movie was made with an entirely different approach, one only possible with nearly a hundred years of innovation in the art of cinema. Somehow implying that there was a 'golden age' in the 30s and 40s is arrogant, there is no 'golden age', there is only general trends in the period. And right now, we are in the most diversified era of media ever. There's so much generic art, trash art, and masterpieces than ever before. Have an open mind.

This show is dope, I have spoken

This is my favorite game of all time. The visuals, sound design, soundtrack, abilties, openess, and world building are stunning and the best I've ever seen out of a videogame. The combat, contrary to popular opinion is inventive and fun. Typhon abilities are an absolute blast. The story was really good, the moral questions really turn you on your head, and its whole setting is a treat to explore. I know, many people hate on it because its not Prey 2 but this was actually a separate project so you can't complain about Prey 2 getting scrapped.The freedom in this game combined with a great plotline make it my favorite game ever. 11/10, play it, show the game the love it deserves.

The best visual novel ever created. Go in blind. Absolutely fantastic. I look forward to playing it again this Summer

Okay... Breathe in... Boi... In all fairness, this film is a total blunder and really comes off as they had no idea what they were doing with the script. Did the writers get high on a bad batch of something? More twists than your average Twizzler. The twists aren't even satisfying. The Prequels had better writing (Racial guilt killed any fun twists that would happen and Jar-Jar should never be a Sith Lord but I digress) and that says something. Lazy. The fight scene in the Throne Room was horribly choreographed, just look at Mr. Spinny dude. Holdo was actually the worst character ever. The plot, even with all of the twists, had the Resistance win which is so predictable. Luke wasn't even Luke. 4/10.

Honestly, the best Star Wars movie to come from Disney. Easily my second favorite in the series, the number one spot is taken by a behemoth called the Empire Strikes Back. 9.5/10 Just watch it. Shoretroopers for life!
