A space expansionist 4x game.
The interface is generally sucky, making it hard to figure out what’s going on.

An awkward dungeon management game, with walls you can’t dig out, rooms you build but don’t know how much of or what size, and an interface that could only be inspired by a 1980s DOS game.
Absolutely not recommended.

A woman is pulled back into a life of crime, only to learn that what she helped steal has other interested parties.
A mediocre movie which just feels off and awkward. Definitely not recommended.
Olga Kurylenko is either an absolutely awful actor, or playing an absolutely awful character, or maybe both. Probably both.

A spoiled little girl loses her rich parents and is sent away to live with her reclusive heartbroken (rich) relative.
The story is fairly awful to me, though I can see how this was popular at the time. It has definitely aged, not just in its period but in its language and writing style.
I’ll class this as “liked”, but I only see this as being good for historical reasons and wouldn’t recommend it. I’ll also class this as child-friendly, except it’s child-friendly in its context: A parent reading to their child in the early 1900s.

Do not watch this! Instead watch the fan edit Star Wars Episode I.II – The Phantom Edit – (2000 movie). Even at its much lower quality it’s head and shoulders above this movie.
 Charging a greenhouse.

It should be summarized as: A noble kingdom is taken by force, forcing a prince to flee and live a life that turns to adventure, to later return to contest for the throne.
However. However it’s all over the place. It doesn’t properly delve into any aspect, and doesn’t properly string things together. It has all the elements of a good, or at least fair, movie, but it wasn’t written well.
 It's a play on words

A science guy has a thing for eyes.
Has one long mellow semi-suspenseful tone, but doesn’t take full advantage of its opportunities. It grows weaker and weaker as it drones on, and barely pretends to have a reasonable resolution.

A tower defense game, but with tanks and more upgrading.
I tried the demo and didn’t give it much of a chance. For example, I didn’t customize units. I prefer the more sandbox-style of Gratuitous Space Battles.

Something about a crime and lawyers and a court and stuff, but with racism.
Not my thing.

A rather quirky, authentic, band/singer. She sings about all the things she’s not.

Fronted by Marina Diamandis, hence the name.
