Here's one from May. I started this short series in January, but I really didn't get back to it until May.  I was bummed to learn that this came out a few years ago and I missed it, because it means that it most likely will not get a sequel.I don't know why JCVD dropped off the face of the planet in the 90s, but this mini series was a fun way to poke fun at all the tropes of action movies of that

 It's summer, so I guess it's time to catch up on writing all those blog posts in my drafts folder from the first part of the year (before the new school year starts and I have little time 😂).  This past february (according to my drafts folder), I wathced Station Eleven on HBO. When I started watching this, I knew that it was set in a post-pandemic world, but I sort of thought that

 Here's another TV show from back in January that's been sitting in my drafts for a few months now.  This one is "Special Ops: Lioness" which "airs" on Paramount+ (at least in the US). Force Recon Marine Cruz Manuelos (Laysla de Oliveira) is recruited into the CIA's Lioness program and tasked with befriending the daughter of a terrorist financier. Apparently, the series is based on a

 I can't believe it's been this long since I last blogged about anything! It's been a busy semester 😬.  Well, let's kick off some warm-weather blogging with something that's been in my drafts since January! When we were returning from our trip to Greece this past January, I started watching "Rabbit Hole" on the return flight.  I caught the first episode and parts of the second before

 Alllllright!  I guess there was one more Year In Review for 2023! This one came in while I was on vacation overseas. It seemed interesting enough to post about.  I think March was my busiest month because I probably marked a whole bunch of past seasons of shows as "viewed" and the platform took that to mean that I watched them in 2023.  I wish there was a "watched when originally

 Time TraxAlright! Here's a show that I started to watch a few years back during the COVID lockdowns, which I put to the side due to the camp-factor, and now I decided to slog through in 2023 and watch it.  The show? Time Trax! This show has two seasons (44 episodes) and it was originally on the Prime Time Entertainment Network in 1993-1994.  This was supposedly an affiliate of TV38

 OK, here's a game I tried, but that I put down after about 3 hours of gameplay (and one achievement).  It's Cyberpunk 2077!   I played this on my Xbox One.  Despite the early hate for the game, I didn't really find that many issues with the graphics of this game on the Xbox One. Sure, there was some clipping, but what can you expect?The setting of the game is "Night City,"

And here we are! Drum roll, please!   I've caught up with all my video game backlog!  😂. I finished on 7/1/2023As I mentioned in the previous blog post, I got into MK XI right after I completed the story of MK X.  I started calling this MK: TNG, because you spend a lot of time getting an exposé to the kids of some of the main characters from past MK games, and it sort of felt

 And...the final Year in Review for 2023 (seems like last year had fewer than before).  This one for gaming, and specifically on xbox.  It's no surprise that my game of the year was Assassin's Creed Valhalla.  I think in 2022 my most played game was AC: Odyssey.

Almost done with my backlog! Yay!  OK, this one I finished the main campaign around June 2023.  I had forgotten that Mortal Kombat 9, 10, and 11 were a trilogy,  so when I started this game I had an "oh yeaaaahhh" feeling as the story seemed to be picking up from where it left off (or at least that was what I thought was happening...)Anyway, from a story plot perspective, here's what
