Pointlessly Rehashing, Rewatching, Rereading, Replaying, Rewinding, and Reviewing Pop Culture
I have a serious problem when it comes to re-watching television shows. I tend to enjoy my subsequent viewings more than my first viewing so my TV is usually inundated with repeats of stuff I've already seen. Not a problem…

Super Mario Odyssey is a great experience but the Cap Kingdom was a mediocre opening to the game. It was short, bland and there was very little in the form of platforming or exploration. Cascade Kingdom feels more in line…

Boy it's a good thing that I have mentally checked out of the mythology in Seasons 10 and 11. Otherwise, My Struggle IV would have left me frothing in rage. As it is, I am merely amused by how poorly…

And here we have the first, actual playable level of The Last of Us (the prologue is more like a short film). Characters are re-established, gameplay mechanics are introduced, and the player is set loose into the world. Honestly, I…

Disclaimer...I was in the middle of moving these last couple of weeks so I apologize to my three fans about my reviews being late. I'll get back to them at some point but for now, you guys will get my…

"This" was a massive improvement for Season 11 of the X-Files over the premiere. The premiere was sloppy, poorly acted, horribly written and badly paced. Thankfully, the majority of my problems with the premiere were minimized here and what we…
