Berserk (1997) anime review
Rated: 3.5 / 5 WARNING: If you haven't seen the show before and intend to watch it, SKIP THE FIRST EPISODE!!! That first episode should be the last episode, because it acts as a sort of epilogue to the entire fucking season (seriously, fuck them for putting that episode first and spoiling much of what … Continue reading Berserk (1997) anime review
Entertainment Industry Nostalgia: March 1990
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gL5BNgcwYhQ March 1990, the sequel to February 1990. An interesting month to be sure for that year. Steve Jackson Games gets raided by the U.S. Secret Service; a case that would evolve years later into something establishing the legalities of online speech still equating to speech; as in free speech. Carole Gist becomes the 1st … Continue reading Entertainment Industry Nostalgia: March 1990
Lexx (1997-2002) series review
So having watched Babylon 5 and Farscape, I'm left wondering what else there is that is considered excellent among the best sci-fi shows ever made (ones that are live-action, have an actual ending, and isn't Star Trek, because Star Trek is the default sci-fi show to fall back on in every situation). I heard about … Continue reading Lexx (1997-2002) series review

Because I hate getting into shows that have no ending, that were cancelled before … Continue reading Babylon 5 (1994-1998) series review
Naoki Urasawa’s Monster (2004) review
Rated: 3 / 5 (might improve sometime in the future when I decide to rewatch this show) And slowly, you come to realize, it's all as it should be. You can only do so much. If you're game enough, you can place your trust in me. For the love of life, there's a trade-off. We … Continue reading Naoki Urasawa’s Monster (2004) review
The Vietnam War: A film by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick (2017) review/critique
Rated: 2.5 / 5 The Vietnam War. Probably the most controversial war America has ever gotten involved in that has people bickering about it to this day. Why did we go in there? Was it ever winnable? Should we have ever gone in there? What were our initial intentions, and how did they change? What … Continue reading The Vietnam War: A film by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick (2017) review/critique
Nostalgia for the 90s Entertainment Culture, Intro
I was born in the late 80s, raised in the 90s, slowly matured in the 2000s, and I don't think I could've asked for a better decade to be raised in. The Internet started to get going, WWF (before it became WWE) was in its prime, Pokemon hit the nation, Dragon Ball Z was a … Continue reading Nostalgia for the 90s Entertainment Culture, Intro
