Kawai!
Loved the animation, and the concept is great, I just could not get into it. I think I may have been pregnant at the time, so struggled with a lot of watching, it was a dark time...
I can tell that a lot of people will and do l9ve it, it clearly has a lot going for it, but it's probaly not 'easy watching' as it seems to have more subtle depth that I am missing.

Will give it another go soon and update this review.

"Blade Runner, man. It’s filled with endless possibilities. It allows you to think, it allows you to move, it allows you to have different interpretations. As well as that score and that world, that visual thing. I just love it. Through it, we get one of the great scenes at the end, “I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion…. Those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain.” Every time I watch it, it moves me. It really moves and excites me, as well."

They should have stopped after the first movie. This is the 3rd movie to the franchise and i hope the last.
Yes there is a story. Not a greatone
Yes there is action and that is the one thing it has.
The acting in it it sucked

I felt bored with it and many times i had to fight from turning it off. I wat hed it and i wish i did not. So unless you are a fan of the stars in it. Please skip it and watch something else.

Looks like meat's back on the menu boys
I love Lord of the rings for many reasons. It has great characters, tension and story. It has beautiful descriptions that help your imagination bloom. It has whole new languages. It has everything you need in a classic fantasy. The only drawback is the that it ends after a long read and you wish it continue. Overall it is one of the best fantasy books I've ever read and it set the tone for many since then. Top job Tolkien.

I'm not sure what I was expecting out of this book, but it wasn't what I was thinking it was going to be. It was interesting, and I did like it, more or less. I liked it a lot more right after I read it, but thinking back now... It wasn't that great. I'll still definitely read the sequel, because I want to know what happens next, well, and I got the book for $3 at Barnes and Noble.

Well designed but I just didn't get into it.
I love the look and the feel of this game. I completely admire the way they keep people hooked and and playing. It is interesting that with it being a Warcraft/Blizzard game that I am not fanboy all over it but... I just don't dig it.

The card game style has just never grabbed me. Give it a shot and see if you like for me it doesn't work.

I loved Parasite way more than I was expecting to. It was unique. A breath of fresh air compared to everything else that's out now. I thought it was part horror, but I guess it wasn't. Violent, yes. However, it was also a well-woven story that had a lot of smart humor in it. I really enjoyed it, and can definitely see how it won so many Oscars this year. It's definitely worth your while to watch.

Simon Pegg recommended Dawn of the Dead (1978) in Movies (curated)

1978 | Horror

"This was a mythic, elusive film because it was banned from the UK. It took me a long time to track it down, but I heard many a story about it — helicopter decapitation and the guy with the screwdriver in his ear. That stuff was just so fascinating to me as I grew up, and when I finally saw it, it did not disappoint. It obviously eventually led to me making a film with a similar title"

Well done
This movie turned out better than it looked like it would. A little slow moving at first but picked up and got pretty intense. It has an interesting twist to it, too. The acting was good but the cinematography could've been a little better. I thought-lighting wise-it was darker than it needed to be but I think ir was intentional. Overall a pretty entertaining movie that isn't exactly what it seems. Really worth a watch!
