The book was very conversational. I prefer reading a more disciplined style of writing for nonfiction. I did not learn anything new from this reading. Almost all I had read in other readings.

If you are a batman you got to watch this. The animation style is beautiful. Seeing batman's enemies as anime characters and then turn them in to evil shoguns makes it even better.

1 star for the some of the WORST WRITING I'VE EVER READ. (lame writing style, horrible characters, shallow plotline, etc)

2 stars for an interesting premise, could have been fleshed out way better.

"Either, both. I think some are confused by the style and wit of his movies and do not see the strain of melancholy underneath which is covered by jauntiness and joie de vivre."

Rolling Stone's 391st greatest album of all time
Good soft rock / light blues songs ranging from his typical Eagles-like style to ore country songs and even some mariachi hints. An interesting listen.

Basically flawless!
Contains spoilers, click to show
While at first I was dubious after the teaser trailers showing what appeared to be more classic horror creatures, they pulled it off perfectly!

The gameplay, while mostly unchanged in style from RE7, is still superb fun, and gives us a slightly more open-world to explore compared to the previous Ethan Winters adventure, as well as a more traditional gothic feel.

The various characters and bosses are all very different and for the most part original, each having their own look, combat style and personality.

My only criticism is not with the game itself, but with advertising. Most people will have noticed that Lady Dimitrescu, the pale, 9ft tall queen of RE memes features more than almost anybody in posters. The thing is, she has a surprisingly small part in the game. Advertising would have you believe she is the main antagonist of the game, where in fact she is in fact the very first main boss. That is as much as I will tell you in that regard!

Altogether, an outstanding game!
