David McK (3764 KP) rated Mortal Kombat (2021) in Movies
Feb 5, 2023
This isn't one of those exceptions
While I have played a few of the MK games in my life, if you'd asked me to name any of the characters I'd probably have a hard time, beyond the 'big names' of Scorpion, Sub-Zero and (maybe) Jax.

Never heard of him.
Fighting games also don't - generally - have all that much in the way of plot, which carries across to this: something about a tournament (d'uh!), and the fighters needing to train for it whilst the bad guys ignore the rules ...
Charlotte (184 KP) rated The Scrotum Toad in Books
Jun 22, 2023
Set against an African back drop, with descriptions of pure beauty and wonder, The Scrotum Toad pulls you into a story that can outshine any soap opera. Full of quirky, fun characters each with their own special personality traits and levels of intelligence and luck (how on earth Stanley has made it as far in life as he has is beyond me)
Each character does have endearing qualities, I'll be honest though, it took me a little while to warm up to Tangle but that's definitely down to having to rearrange my way of thinking. She's quite the inspiration.
