This movie is pretty entertaining while also bringing the stereotypical bullying and school peer pressure to attention. It also brings up the issue of family pressures and what it can do to people, which I think adds a lot of character to the characters. It does feel like there's an odd back and forth with Bender and how he's treated by the other students. Like, one minute he's annoying them and the next they're all hanging out together. But still, really enjoy watching this movie...again and again.

I enjoyed the movie. Personally, I was mostly invested in watching it because Hisoka is in it. Though I wish he had a bigger role, I still loved that he was there. The characters are still interesting, though at first it felt a little weird since it seemed like Gon was being portrayed as more mature yet still child-like, but that only stuck with me in the beginning. The movie felt somewhat dark and serious, though given the storyline of the film this wasn't that surprising. I do wish there was a little more comic relief in a few areas, as well as more connection between the characters (Kurapika seemed so distant I seriously questioned whether he was still friends with Gon and the others). Overall though, good movie.

I absolutely loved this series. The voice acting was phenomenal and the animation amazing. By far the most realistic transformers in cartoons. The moment I heard Optimus speak I realized it was Peter Cullen, or at least my mind instantly recognized him as the voice from the Bay movies, who I remembered looking up and learning that Cullen was often cast as Optimus Prime. He really is one of the best people to cast for Optimus (another being Garry Chalk, who voiced Optimus in Armada). It was fun rewatching and finding little "easter eggs" or references to other Transformers series. Honestly, because of the animation (so cool seeing them transform!), voice actors of the Cybertronians, and the SOUNDTRACK, this is easily one of my favorite Transformers series.

I really like this game. I haven't had an RPG before, and honestly wasn't really aware what that meant until I bought the game. But I am actually really enjoying it. I've already finished it once and am determined to replay to get all the PS4 trophies (though I finished it first with help from walkthroughs because knowing my choices could change the fate of even a companion stressed me out some). The first things that appealed to me were that it was a third-person game that didn't have a turn-based combat system. I'm really into Assassin's Creed, and from the gameplay images and cover, this seemed to have a similar design. I love the story, though, again, the fact that there are different endings is something new to me for a console game. But all in all, love it. I've gotten attached to the companion characters, and will probably keep replaying it in the future if for no other reason than to hear them talk to "me". Also, soundtrack is pretty good in my opinion. I like how the music changes depending on what's around you (monsters, humans, plain wildlife, etc.) The fact that certain items have weight and that there's a limit to how much your character can carry almost worried me, but when I realized that it only affected whether or not I can sprint, and that it may increase depending on your level, not so bad.
