Fallout: New Vegas (2010)
If it was fun to play
Not only is this game broken to the core with several aspects not even fuctioning, its pretty boring.
Entertainment is very subjective so i wont be doing a more detailed review, but i could not finish this game. I think with the shooting mechanics of fallout 4 this could have been the game that everyone thinks it is, i however dont think it is good enough. The writing is alright i guess, not too bad but not amazing like other games i played. The hook was interesting but in reality after a while i realized that i didnt have much motivation for anything. I didnt care about half the characters i met. The best moments of new vegas were wehn i found a misterious place like a vault, but sadly most of the game is just talking with npcs and shooting ghouls, in the very clunky mechanics of shooting.
I know the story behing the game and how bethesda basiccally gave obsidian scraps to make a spaceship, but still.
Maybe a remake or remaster could help my experience with the game, i dont know. I can see why people enjoy it, i just think its kind of like mainstream music, fun to listen, but empty in its lyrics.
Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
A big improvement over the theatrical cut.
I dont know how i will feel in the future, but damn was it better than i expected. The writing had some weak spots, like the darkseid intro, and also the fact that darkseid doesnt remember where earth is. Also the entire introduction of flash was quite long and weird.
But generally was leagues better, the writing was more on zack snyder stuff, sometimes the characters came off as too cool, but it didnt had too much jokes like the original, that kind of destroyed the flow of the film. My least favourite part was Lois Lane but i mean it was barely in it, in a 4 hour movie its not a big deal.
The entire music was way better than i remembered, i dont remember the original being horrible on music but it was just forgettable. The music here was really memorable for the most part in my opinion, mainly cause they used a lot of the original BVS and Man of steel score, and that was awesome in my opinion.
The cgi looked good for the most part, which i was not expecting, i think the lighthing of Zack Snyder really helps to hidden special effects, and for the most part i didnt noticed, altough there were some moments were it looked weird, mainly flash running. The fight scenes were better but they were not exactly bad in the original, they just had cring one liners and stupid jokes.
The characters feel more fleshed out, cyborg specially is almost the main character, there is also a reason why they are attacking earth, the villain feels like a villain and not some bad CGI. Generally i think the visuals were better. I would have liked some things to be different, but that is more on me, not on zack snyders vision.
The best improvement is definitely that this film is more cohesive, is more epic and generally is almost a new movie. I mean if you didnt like zack snyders style, then you wont like the movie, is really simple.
In conclusion i think it was worth the wait, i am joining the #RestoreTheSnyderVerse cause what i am seeing is a guy who has ideas and i would love him to fully realize them, i think his ideas are bold and unique for the most part. Sadly i dont think that is going to be the case.
Now insert we live in a society jokes.
Euphoria (2019)
Awesome
Easily one of my favourite shows to come out in recent years. The cinematography is amazing, the characters are incredible, their motivations, goals, it all is excellent. The soundtrack really compliments some scenes altough sometimes is quite loud. The first episode felt more like a tumblr post than a actual introduction but as things get along, the writing gets incredible at points, the acting is superb.
One thing may be a negative for some people is that the show has some imagery that is hard to watch, speccialy if you dont like a lot of sex and violence, but that is more of a You problem than a Show problem.
Incredible character piece and characters analysis, hope next season is as good as this.
Family Guy: The Simpsons Guy (2014)
Great Family guy episode, Horrible simpsons episode
The episode has the classic things that make a family guy episode good, great action sequences, funny gags and recurrent jokes, stewie. So it is a good episode right? Well yeah, but the simpsons being there kind of feels off, i get that at heart is a funny thing that family guy copied the simpsons but it felt like a diservice, lots of thing that make the simpsons characters to be more of assholes than the griffin family and that aint a good thing. Even tough the simpsons are more relatable, harmless and with a heart, somehow they look like monsters here.
As my title says, great family guy, horrible simpsons.
Legion (2017)
Pretentious, but effective
As the title suggests, this TV show is a little pretentious at points, sometimes it tries to be more thant it is, and deals with subjects as if it is a mastermind show. It aint. But its clearly a thought out crafted show, with build up, character development, and a story i never expected to be this good.
If you are here expecting the likes of Iron fist or Luke cage were they use superpowers all the time in order for furn, you will be disspaointed. If you are her expecting a TV show that shows mental illnes, the fear against the unknow and the power, and a show that uses superpowers as a way to tell a story, then you will love it.
The performances overall areexcellent, altough one character kinda dragged on through the show, it became rather interestingto see every character develop through the show, see their fears, their motivations and if they achieved them or not.
What reaslly surprised me is the variety of the episodes, none of the episodes feels repetitve, even if some are not as good as others,they still feel unique, in its story, style or even setting. Also there are like 4 or 3 musicals that are quite good, if not weird.
Yet, i highly recommend this show, because let me tell you, it is a pretty unique show.
Little Women (2019)
Genuinely good and entertaining
While not perfect, this film achieves at telling a interesting story about little women from 2 separate years. The movie is upbeat and happy when it needs to, but sad and dark when needed. The dialogue, directing, editing and specialy core are INCREDIBLE. I highly recomend this movie.
BoJack Horseman: The View from Halfway Down (2020)
Mastapece
While bojack horseman has ups and downs in quality, season 6 was consistent genius, and this episode solidifies it, by being one of the best episodes ever made in a tv show, ever. Sooo many emotions connected in a single episode.
