Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Ready Player One in Books
Jul 10, 2018
I really, really, really loved this novel. It is filled with geeky nostalgia. I couldn't help but let my inner geek squee when a movie, band, tv show etc. that I loved appeared.
The characters were really interesting and I quickly became invested in their success. I couldn't help but smile, tear up, or laugh when something happened in this novel.
All in all, this is a novel for geeks, and mostly 80's geeks. Unfortunately the only thing 80's about me is my birth year (89). Even so, I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. This is definitely a book that I will have to reread. I feel like there was so much that I missed.

Alicia S (193 KP) rated The Doomsday Girl (Dan Reno, #6) in Books

Very quickly becoming one of my favorite mystery/PI series.
I was a bit late coming to the Dan Reno series by Dave Stanton and I'll surely be catching up quickly! As a lover of both crime stories and TV shows, I'm left feeling like every book is like THE best episode of your favorite crime show. Never a dull moment, Dan's laid-back attitude has me laughing every time and I can't help but both laugh and shake my head at Cody constantly. Quick-paced, yet easy to follow, I couldn't put this one down and finished it in a day. Very quickly becoming one of my favorite mystery/PI series.

Introducing reality TV star Michael Myers!
Some people were turned off by the different style and almost humorous take on the ongoing Michael saga, but I thought it was a pleasant surprise.
Inject more young, fun actors like Busta Rhymes, Katee Sackhoff, Thomas Ian Nicholas and even Tyra Banks and what you have is a masterpiece of horror (not really, but at least something a little different).
Interesting idea to place a bunch of unknowns in Michael's childhood home as part of a reality show and watch the calamity ensue when bad things start to happen (and then the real Michael shows up).
Seems like I enjoyed more than most.

Busta rhymes kicks michael myers into a shitty remake
Contains spoilers, click to show
After H20, killed of micheal myers, the studio was like we need anethor film. So we got this. Jamie lee curtis gets killed off in thr first 5 minutes, so the next 85 minutes we folllow a jamie lee curtis rip-off, maybe not even that. Anyways what was popular back in 2002, reality t.v. shows, so we get people going into micheal myers house for dangertainment the reality tv show.
Busta rhymes is the best part and the worst part of this film. He kicks micheal myers and sends him off to rob zombie's remake. Which i will review. But this film fans should skip.

Lee KM Pallatina (951 KP) rated Pokémon: The First Movie - Mewtwo Strikes Back (1998) in Movies
Feb 28, 2020
Gotta catch em all
Released back in 1998 following it's extremely successful t.v. series, pokemon: the first movie (Mewtwo strikes back) sees main characters Ash, Pikachu, Brock & Misty receive an invitation from a mysterious Host, with the destination point being the middle of the ocean.
Upon arriving, things quickly become clear that nothing is quite as it seems & that genetically engineered pokemon known as Mewtwo is in control & will stop at nothing to rule the world without humans.
This is a very mature movie which is incredible considering that its based on a rather friendly children's tv show.
An emotionally caring plot, that can still leave you teary eyed today.

Old School Johnny (30 KP) rated Ozark - Season 3 in TV
Apr 29, 2020
Great crime drama that feels very cinematic ?
I am not big into TV shows however after watching the first two seasons of Ozark I was immediately hooked. Season three is equally as good if not better than previous two. For one, every character's actions have consequences that contribute to the larger story as whole. Additionally, the intensity in each episode is raised just a bit enough to keep the audience from predicting what will happen next. If you thought season 2 was a bit slower, season three definitely takes it up a couple of notches. I am excited for future seasons and give the show my high praise.
