They band together to save the planet from Galactus, a world-consuming alien.

Mediocre.

A space-western-esque MMORPG whose most interesting elements are movement in combat and a light/comedic tone. Oh, and player housing for the girls.

Meh. Just meh. I gave this a good shot, but the gameplay and interface are just shit.

I got to level 10. TEN and gave up. It was quite fun until I did a dungeon. I was told to keep playing until I did one, and .. well.. it failed miserably.

A military science experiment haunts local Yugoslavians when the infected turn into madmen.

An amateurish zombie movie with nothing interesting to add to the genre. It’s worth a watch if you’re zombie movies, otherwise don’t bother.

The show was cancelled after two seasons, at which time I stopped caring enough that when I learned it had been un-cancelled I continued to not care.

A psychologically-disturbed young man’s fantasies spiral out of control as he pursues a lunatic’s dream for economic anarchy.

Fast and loose. This is one of those shows which tries to cash in on this generation’s theme of general discontent. It generally fails. More-or-less entertaining.

For everyday people this is somewhat recommended. For fans of psychological stuff, and anti-corporatism, this is somewhat recommended. For people who know enough about computers but don’t like psychological stuff or anti-corporatism, I do not recommend this.

A disturbed child convinces a complete stranger that she’s his mother, embroiling her in a town-wide fantasy with his sociopathic mother as an adversary.

I guess this would be entertaining for little girls. This didn’t grab me in the first few episodes. It needs more explosions, or maybe a male role model.

  • Abandoned – ABC doesn’t list it any more.

A hooker is picked up by a business man and they end up spending a week together, encouraging both her transformation and his.

Strongly disliked. With overtones of all manner of female masterbatory bullshit from hypergamy to princess-saving, this film is a tooth-grinder.

Pixels (2015) poster 1

A time capsule shot into space back in 1982 is received as a declaration of war by aliens, who respond with multiple waves of 1980s video games-made-real, which only lifetime-loser video game nerds can face.

Uh. From the ground up, this movie cannot work. It’s a kids movie which relies upon the nostalgia only a handful of middle-aged men might have but hopefully won’t.

Navy Seals vs. Zombies (2015) poster

Baton Rouge, Louisiana is ground zero for a zombification-virus.

While not great, it could have done a whole lot worse. Navy Seals vs. Zombies is probably worth a watch for zombie and military fans, if there’s nothing better around.

I didn’t get through it. It had nothing interesting to offer me.
