An agent’s god-daughter is kidnapped under political circumstances, and complexities necessitate him forming his own team to rescue her.

Quite a good movie. Excellent pacing and music.

A Swedish intelligence agent tracks a missing shipment of arms, uncovering a link to a mercenary organization.

Exceptional. This is not James Bond-style, but is a proper adult movie.

  • Properly titled: Hamilton: In the Interest of the Nation
  • The Swedish title is: Hamilton: I nationens intresse

Final Fantasy 14 image

Yet another MMO, but Japanese and built on a huge franchise and the smouldering remains of an abysmal failure.

I don’t understand how this is popular. It has boring repetitive abilities, a confusing layout and a terrible map system.

  • Properly named Final Fantasy XIV
  • Technically I’m looking at Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn
  • aka ファイナルファンタジーXIV: 新生エオルゼア
  • aka Fainaru Fantajī Fōtīn: Shinsei Eoruzea

    • Apparently that’s not a joke.
  • aka FF14, FFXIV

A fair tower defence game that really does come across as a mobile game ported to desktop. I got it free from Epic, which is the only thing making me not completely trash this thing.

Fair, with flaws.

  • Supports ultrawide in so far as it paints a design outside of its normal widescreen aspect ratio.

Baby New Year is missing and time will stop unless Rudolph can find him.

Too dumb for adults, but it’d be great for little kids.

A biopic of Mike Tyson.

It was only fair, and I didn’t finish it. I ended it with the predictably-horrible wife.

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer꞉ The Movie - (1998 movie) poster

A bright nosed reindeer is encouraged and appreciated but still runs away because kids bully him, but has an adventure and returns to be appreciated again.

The animation and Whoopi Goldberg are just too shit to take this seriously. I’d say it tried to be wholesome, but it’s so awkward and old.

A deformed and rejected reindeer runs away from home, but eventually returns to save Christmas by being useful.

Don’t think about it too much, it’s wholesome!
