Oof. I get the draw. Cram a ton of your favorite 80's trivia into a futuristic plot and call it a day. And it is great fun knowing the things the characters praise as obscure puzzles and information. But there are problems. 1) Without the nostalgia of vomiting 80's references, there's little to glean from the story itself. 2) The <b>extremely</b> problematic relationship that the hero pursues that gives a platform for incel's everywhere. 3) An action oriented plot that kind of just sputters out. Rough finish. Great story if you see toxic online behavior as "misunderstood," though.

The hype for Black Panther has been building for about a year and dear lord they did not disappoint. From start to finish you are drawn in and the movie does not let you go.
For me Michael B Jordan stole the movie for me though he was just spectacular.
The crowning achievement though was the costume designs they were all so breathtakingly gorgeous and you could tell that they were someone who understood the culture, they just seamlessly mixed traditional and futuristic and I AM IN LOVE!

Sex scenes
This tv show keeps you very intertained. It throws your emotions all over the place from being extremely happy to mad or sad in an instant. You wont want to stop watching. It is a mixture of old values being brought forth and conformity. I do not recommend people who have PTSD with rape involved because it might trigger something. The Sex scenes don't show much as well as very little nudity. Overall I do recommend this tv show.

My vote for GOTY
A kind of alt history world where prehistoric meets futuristic. Take down, control, and run for your life against robotic AI controlled animals and evil bandits in this open world rpg. Great gameplay, gadgets, story, graphics, and just down right enjoyable to play. It's in a league of it's own as far as story. Unlock the mystery behind who you are and why the world needs you, along the way you will.meet characters that will make.you miss them when it's over, enemies who will make you think to beat them and hunting like.never before.
