Civilization Building Strategy Perfection
I have yet to play Civilization VI, but Civilization V has been my favorite in the series so far. They switched tiles from being four-sided to five-sided, and that extra direction adds plenty of nuance to the game by itself. Military units are streamlined, cities get bigger and better looking as they grow, and it's always a joy to see the wonders you build appear in the landscape. I've sunk a lot of time into full length matches, and usually prefer to win through military action or science, but I have managed a few diplomatic victories as well. The religion system has never really interested me, but I'm sure winning that way appeals to some. It's a great and massive game to get lost in.

War United Them! Music Made Them A Family!
When their spouses are called to war, a group of military wives form a choir to deal with the distraction of the impending war. Unaware of what it takes to start and form a choir, the ladies learn that they have a lot more in common than what they think. The war may have united them but their love of music is what made them a family.
 When I watched the trailer for the movie, I was left somewhat baffled. I couldn't tell if the film was garnered more for fans of music or military families. But being a fan of Kristin Scott Thomas, I threw all doubts and hesitation about the film away and watched it...and I'm glad I did! Not knowing much about the story and it's characters, I became very enthralled with the movie. At first viewing, I thought I was watching a "military" version of the movie Pitch Perfect. Not knowing that the movie was based on a true story, it peaked my interest to learn more about the "true" military wives choir. After multiple watches though, I can honestly say that the overall plot and feel of the movie makes this a must see film. Fans of music and military films will enjoy this movie very immensely. A must see and highly recommended film!!!
