The Marinated Meeple (1853 KP) rated Dice Town in Tabletop Games
Nov 15, 2018
Good 5 player game (2 more)
Roll, select, roll what’s left, select mechanic is nice
Bad luck has choices
Can get screwed early and often. Just like in life (1 more)
Almost nothing stays yours.
Good light dice game. Best with more.
This was a cute game. Feels like an auction game as players are simultaneously selecting a dice and going after a certain outcome. But if more than one person is going for it. It will probably cost more. Is it worth it? I enjoyed my play. I’d play again but I’m not sprinting to play again.

A Good Mix
This movie was a great mix of funny and serious. Maya was an awesome character that you really wanted to see succeed even if she didn't go about it in a traditional way. For me the thing that really made this movie great were Maya's friends. All of them were hilarious, and it was nice to see such a strong group. They did a great job of mixing serious moments in without making this movie to heavy. I would highly suggest this if you are looking for something fun to watch.

Nice!
This one is a couple years old, but turned out to be more entertaining than most "horror" movies of today. The acting wasn't the greatest, but it was good. The cinematography was done well and the story played out interestingly. Not what I expected from the description. This film has plenty of creep factor and intensity. Not big budget, but definitely done right. Only thing I didn't like was the typical Hollywood "leave-it-open-for-a-sequel" ending. However, that doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the film overall. Worth a watch!
Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated Maid Mary Anne (The Baby-Sitters Club, #66) in Books

Mary Anne only stops being a doormat because she fears the wrath of K. Ron Hubbard. Check.
An older woman, who presumably has been living by herself for quite a while, breaks her ankle and just...lays around waiting for someone to hear her yelling? I'm going to pretend that she just passed out from the pain, woke up and figured she'd call out before moving her ass so a neighboring cat wouldn't eat her face.
The sexism b-plot with Nicky and Buddy was kinda nice, though.

Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Into The Grizzly Maze (2015) in Movies
Jul 22, 2019
Nice
Plenty of big names in this survival thriller. The acting was very well done. The cinematography was shot on with just a hint if cgi on a few parts(barely noticable). The story was simple and straight forward - pacing was causing a problem and a rogue grizzly was out in the woods killing pretty much everything it came across(including people) and some folks stuck out there had to survive. Plenty of intensity that isn't overwhelmed by the people's back story. Not a big budget flick but definitely a good one! Worth a watch!
Coleman Balogh (21 KP) rated Welcome Back to the Dungeon in Tabletop Games
Dec 17, 2018
Easy and enjoyable but slightly passable
The game is fun and fast but for me doesn't have too much replay value. 4 players go through a bidding process to determine how difficult a dungeon will be and then one player is forced to play through that dungeon with some character stats and items. The 4 characters are ok and the monsters are fine (I do enjoy the art) but it can become a little repetitive. Its a nice little game but it certainly won't be the only game you want to play.
Claire (4 KP) rated Human by Rag 'n' Bone Man in Music
Dec 20, 2018
The words of 'Human' says it all
A fantastic voice which express the words which inturn have a deep meaning within themselves. It's nice to be able to hear the words and to realise they have such a deep impact. The music and beat help the words to be expressed in such a melodic manner too. His voice is divine too!!
A fantastic artist, can't wait to hear more.
Thank you for sharing such brilliance with us.

Awix (3310 KP) rated Miranda (1948) in Movies
Mar 8, 2020
Light-as-a-feather comic fantasy is strikingly risque given it was made in the 1940s. A mermaid takes a short holiday in London (disguised as a woman confined to a wheelchair) and carves a swathe through the men she encounters, much to the indignation of their wives and fiancees.
Cheery stuff, with nice comic performances from Glynis Johns and Margaret Rutherford. Surprisingly suggestive as well - the male lead is clearly implied to be at it with the mermaid despite being a married man. Not at all meant to be taken seriously, but charming nevertheless.
