gayga (2128 KP) rated Weasels Ripped My Flesh by Mothers of Invention / Frank Zappa in Music
Oct 11, 2019
Welcome weasels!
I saw the cover for this in a book of album covers years ago. Having come across it again recently I listened to the album on YouTube and couldn’t believe how good it was. I’d always heard of Frank Zappa but had never listened to any of his music but like wow! What have I missed?
I think it would take a few more listens to identify a stand out track for me, but as a brand new Zappa fan it’s certainly wetted my appetite to sample more of his (quite vast) back catalogue. Hopefully I’ll get to review more of this great mans work shortly.

Very easy game to play (1 more)
Beautiful game
It looks completed, it's not
If you saw rising sun being played, you probably wouldn't be the only one who thinks there is a lot going on and that it's a complicated game. This is not the case.
After the first season it's very easy to know what's going on, the game flows well through each stage.
With the range of potential decks to use the games can be different each time you play making it great for playing again and again.
Try the game, then see if you still think it's too complicated

Crazy or Insane
The Crazies- is one of those horror remakes that not alot of people saw. It is very underrated and more people should watch it because it is good.
Anarchy reigns when an unknown toxin turns the peaceful citizens of Ogden Marsh into bloodthirsty lunatics. In an effort to contain the spread of the infection, authorities blockade the town and use deadly force to keep anyone from getting in or out. Now trapped among killers, Sheriff Dutten (Timothy Olyphant) and his wife (Radha Mitchell) and two companions must band together to find a way out before madness and death overtake them.
Its about survival and surving to see tomorrow.
I would highly reecordmend this movie.

I was excited to view this film when I first saw a trailer for it. The concept seemed very interesting. Sadly, the execution was a bit off the mark.
I stand by my belief that the actual story is quite good and original. But the amount of time taken between relevant scenes build a story that really doesn't need to be told and ends up mudding things up to a degree that when the movie ends there are more questions than answers.
Acting was good. Visually pleasing. VERY SLOW throughout most of the movie. Give it a go if you have unyielding curiosity, a few extra hours, and a desire to be left wanting.

Thundercats .... Hoooooo!!!
*sword kerching sound*
The Thundercats was a childhood favourite of mine, so when I saw this on sale (in 2025), I thought I might as well give it a go.
Pleasingly, this requires no foreknowledge of the cartoon, with this starting right at the very beginning, with the Thundercats fleeing Thundera whilst being pursued by the Mu'tants and crash-landing on 'Third Earth', to find that their leader Jago has perished in the journey and that his son 'Lion-O' hibernation pod has malfunctioned so that Lion-O is now fully grown.
They have yet to directly encounter Mumm-ra the ever-Living.
I think I'll keep an eye out for more of these.

Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) in Movies
Nov 18, 2021
We came, we saw it, it kicked ass! My mind is like a ghost trap and the memory of this night will forever be captured and stored away, never to be forgotten. Between sharing my love for Ghostbusters with my niece and just all of the nostalgia surrounding the movie, it made for a very emotional night. Ghostbusters: Afterlife was worth the wait, and like a bunch of library books, it stacks up to the original. It's so freaking amazing! I loved everything about it! If you're a big baby like me, then have some tissue to keep your tear streams from crossing. And make sure you stay until the end of the credits.
Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated The Meg (2018) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
Now I have to say that I’ve been looking forward to seeing The Meg ever since I first saw the trailer a while back and at the time I had no idea that the movie was based on a series of books by Steve Alten, with this movie based on the first book, “MEG: A Novel of Deep Terror“, suffice to say I’ll be grabbing some of them to read very soon. Shark movies have become a little stale of the last few years and to be honest they have never thrilled me as much as Jaws, but The Meg certainly adds a whole new twist to the shark movie.
