Nemesis 5꞉ The New Model - (2017 movie) image

Entertainment > Movies >

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7008310/

I’m really not sure what’s going on. I think I was watching resistance fighters struggling against cyborg overlords.

Pass hard; God dman. I’m leaving that typo in.

A genetically-enhanced assassin grows tired of the business, and makes one last hit before considering retirement.

Mediocre.

This is unrelated to the other Nemesis movies.

Minecraft - SmallLogo.altform-lightunplated_targetsize-256

Entertainment > Games >

A procedurally generated survival game with shitty graphics, which became popular because it was first-to-market and took advantage of nostalgia.

Unfortunately, Minecraft was never completed and the author fucked off with the money to make another game. Even with extraordinary success, the author didn’t make good on promises and the game was never finished. (It would later be “finished” by having a recipe book concept and an “end”; neither of which are any good.)

I loved this game, and even bought it twice to support the developer, but because it was Java it would bring a computer to its knees. Being sold out to Microsoft (for their upcoming virtual reality stuff I’d bet) was bafflingly insulting.

I would try it again years later, and it hasn’t had basic improvements.

Baldur's Gate 3 - (2023 game) logo 2

Roam around harassing NPCs and accidentally-clicking in combat.

It has some really obvious and fundamental flaws that make it just terrible to cope with. I feel like I have to struggle against its design. The abilities are buckshot across the interface, the inventory is a hot mess, and combat is awkward and unforgiving. The dialog trees are kind of stupid most of the time, and player customization isn’t particularly present, which is strange for a roleplaying game. I can only see that this has appeal because there have been no decent AAA games lately, and their variety is absolute shit.

Nemesis 3꞉ Prey Harder - (1996 movie) poster

Like a bad fever dream, even more were sent back in time to collect information on her and possibly kidnap her.

Most scenes have the film equivalent of crayon scribbled over them, the writing is bad, the dialog is bad, the acting is mediocre, the scenery is awful, the effects are overwhelming, the audio is terrible, the music is okay in places.. it’s just an hour and a half of suffering.

To escape a ruined future, a genetically-enhanced child is sent back in time to grow into a She-Hulk who is too ugly to date, let alone procreate, so I’m not sure why a cyborg is sent after her.

Wow this is a special kind of bad. The first is pretty good, and incredible in comparison to this. Well, it’s part of a series so let’s continue suffering through them all!

  • Trailer
  • Inappropriately-rated; Rated R but no blood or swearing. I guess it’s for showing some thong-butt.

A Mexican crime family steals alien technology and wrecks havoc.

A mediocre superhero movie, which in today’s times makes it spectacular. Highly recommended as a bubblegum movie.

Aliens arrive with human ambassadors, who struggle with a decision to return or stay.

This movie has a poor tone and struggles with abandonment and mortality; it’s generally depressing. Not recommended, especially if you liked the first movie.

  • Trailer
  • Inappropriately rated: PG-13 but with suicide.


Defense Grid꞉ The Awakening image

A pretty basic tower defence game, with the twist that enemies reach your core and carry off power thingies. I think I remember a Flash game like this.

It’s kinda neat, but reminiscent of old DOS games; not good enough.
