Lumos (380 KP) rated Galaxy Trucker in Tabletop Games

I like this game. Or rather, I want to like this game. It is such a fun concept and plays hilariously, but I can't get my brain to wrap around the helter skelter of this game. My ship explodes pretty quickly, or is overrun by aliens, and I spend the rest of the game floating through space watching my friends speed through. Guess I just need more practice here.

Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Ad Astra (2019) in Movies

Eh
This movie with Brad Pitt was rather disappointing. They tried to make it some deep, meaningful story but it just turned out, well, boring. Some interesting ideas about space travel/exploration but other than that there just wasn't much substance. Frankly, I'm not sure how I got through the whole thing. The cinematography was good, the acting was mediocre at best. Overall this one is NOT worth a watch.
