New type of storyline to previous seasons (5 more)
Fantastic acting. Especially from Tennant and Coleman
Twist upon twist left you guessing
Kept the Culprit secret until the final epeisode
Ended on a positive note, leaving it open to a renewal in the future
A true return to form
Lacked some of the conviction of season one (1 more)
Had a hard job of matching it's previous seasons success. Just slightly missing the mark
A fitting final season
Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Star Wars: Lando in Books
Jan 11, 2018
A rollicking "Ocean's 11" style caper with the likable Lando at it's lead. What's not to like? Great characterization and matching art. This has been the most solid of the Star Wars mini series Marvel has launched since the Disney acquisition. (At least that I've read so far.) I understand it was trimmed down from a planned 8 or 10 issue arc to 5, and that's a same, because the finale does feel a bit truncated, but still well worth your time!

Contains spoilers, click to show
This film is superb, following the original three games, The Eternal Diva shows style and fluidity matching the games. The scenes are very well done and provide and excellent story that manages to fit puzzles like that of the games within it.
The fact that they have Luke begin the film by acting as a PR man for the first three games is amusing too.
I particularly enjoyed the operatic scenes of the film, as well as the revealing of Melanie's possession of Janet.

Gameplay (1 more)
Simplicity
Great Game
A matching game with a little story line with choices. Many, many levels to play (currently in the 300’s) and they vary enough to stay interesting! However the game does sometimes freeze which can mean if you’ve successfully completed a level it may not be registered (which can be frustrating especially on a harder level). You can buy things from the in-game store, however you can also earn items for free and you get coins for every level completed.
Brad Leary (18 KP) rated What Do You Meme? in Tabletop Games
Mar 6, 2019
There are some very funny cards that will make you laugh.
The premise of matching phrases doesn't really work. Many of the pictures are too generic or no one has any cards that fit the image. The judge usually just goes with the funniest card disregarding the meme altogether.
And just like CAH, it becomes stale once you have gone through all the cards.

The tiles are colorful & well made (3 more)
Game is fun
Minor strategy
Casual
Simple. Great for kids & casual gamers
Build your kingdom using tiles in a domino-style game. Score by matching zone types with crowns on your tiles. This game is a lot of fun & great for casual players. Heavy-duty players may find it too simplistic. The "sequel" Queendomino kicks it up a notch. But if you're gonna play with your kids or your wife, who may not be the biggest board game geek, this one is okay.
The Craggus (360 KP) rated Demolition Man (1993) in Movies
Nov 13, 2018 (Updated Nov 13, 2018)
If you’ve never seen Demolition Man, you are fined one credit for a violation of the Awesome Nineties Movie Statute: 25th Anniversary Review
It’s been a quarter of a century since “Demolition Man” first blew us on screen, licking our ass and matching our meet with its blend of high-octane action and surprisingly prescient sci-fi. With only 14 years to go until Simon Phoenix and John Spartan are thawed out, it’s time to celebrate the movies 25th anniversary, so I’d like to invite you to join me, at Taco Bell!

Ultimate Classic
This musical is a masterclass in brilliance.
Performances that stand the test of time, Tim Curry (my claim to fame is that my mother in law once had relations with him )delivers a performance that is impossible to forget.
Meatloaf is out of this world with his song and in my opinion no one on stage has ever come close to matching how he effortlessly owns Whatever Happened to Saturday Night.
If you haven’t seen this film yet then do not waste another second.

Bostonian916 (449 KP) rated Léon: The Professional (1994) in Movies
Sep 17, 2020
How Jean Reno didn't become a household name after his performance in Leon is incredulous to me. Pairing his stellar performance with that of a villainous Gary Oldman and a VERY young Natalie Portman and you have an acting trifecta for the ages. Matching Besson's direction tit for tat allowed this squad to create one of the more memorable movies of its time. Leaving no potential for a follow up, you begin to realize it simply had to be that way. And I believe Besson understood that. You can't replicate the level of excellence this movie achieved and call it a sequel.
