Erika (17788 KP) rated ArtCurious Podcast in Podcasts
Oct 4, 2020
I LOVE this podcast. I'm not a huge podcast listener, I prefer audiobooks.
I've always been interested in art, and took several classes during undergrad. I still kick myself for not going to grad school for art history truthfully.
Dascal is a Curator herself, and didn't always love art. Now, she presents interesting stories about works of art and artists that are appealing, even to the non-art lover. My favorite eps are about Van Gogh, and whether Sickert could possibly be Jack the Ripper.
I purchased her new book yesterday, and I can't wait to start reading.

Board Game News (72 KP) rated Marvel Legendary: Into the Cosmos in Tabletop Games
Dec 10, 2020
The return of Shards was very welcome. Adds a new dimension of tactics to the game. (3 more)
Into the Cosmos has some cool schemes and Masterminds, Magus being our favorite.
Some of the best Villains ever, especially the Celestials. This expansion is almost worth getting for these alone.
A couple of cool heroes which makes use of the Shards in a new way.
Some of the new mechanics are fiddly and quite frankly boring. (1 more)
The Shard tokens are not the best quality, but that is easily remedied by using something else.

Eleanor (1463 KP) rated What Lies Between Us in Books
Jan 20, 2021
Over the past 12 months, John Marrs has shot towards the top of my favorite authors' list, and 'What Lies Between Us' does not fail to deliver.
Featuring the most messed up of family dynamics, the gasp moments keep on coming as we try to decide who is most dysfunctional; daughter Nina or mother Maggie. They both put a big claim to the title.
The writing is so gripping that once you start you just want to keep on going, so despite the disturbing content I didn't want a break.
Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the copy

Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated The Kid (2019) in Movies
Jun 28, 2019
One of my favorite genres that I don't feel we get enough quality movies of these days is western. The silver lining in that is in the over saturated world of movies and television today when a good one does get made it really shines. Directed by the amazingly talented Vincent D'Onofrio and starring a wonderful cast, including D'Onofrio's daughter, Ethan Hawke, Dane DeHaan(who reminds me of a young Leonardo DiCaprio), and Chris Pratt as a bad guy which was cool to see, The Kid shines brighter than a sheriff's badge during a gunfight at high noon.

Perfection. Long movie, but wish it was longer. Wish there were more deleted scenes. When i watched this movie, there was still no information that fans were getting Hobbit movies, so this really felt like an end to a very captivating journey. I literally felt empty. Throughout the movies, i felt like i was right there, with our favorite characters, on a journey. There were tears and there were smiles. Beautiful scenery where it all was filmed was mesmerizing. And i'm sure that the ending made everyone cry. I wish this journey didn't end, it was too good.
