So much to do!

I've been playing ark survival evolved since its release on the xbox in December of 2015. There is no other game on xbox that is quite the same. Starting off naked and alone on a random beach only to eventualy be riding dinosaurs into combat, or using them for utility mounts. The game is harsh to the player expect to be chaced killed and knocked out by many of the games dinosaurs. Work your way to the top and fly around in your ironmanish armor. There is a lot of bugs occuring at the moment anywere from frewuent crashing to DDOSing and Duplicatig. These issues are slowly being worked on but atill an issue regardless. Overall its my most played game regardless l!!!!

The Stuff of Nolan Dreams

If you're a fan of Christopher Nolan, this is the stuff of your dreams. The film may be about WWII, but it is a departure from war films as we've come to know them, and this is a good thing! The film keeps you on the edge of your seat with it's amazing score and sound design and without any gratuitous shots of death. Nolan's decision to *purposely* omit backstories for the characters works because it has nothing to do with their lives before we meet them. This is a film about humanity and survival and I didn't feel any less connected to the characters because I "didn't know" them. If anything, it's a testament to Nolan's writing and intuition that you can feel so connected to characters without prior backstory.

I liked it more than most it seems

The survival in the wilderness aspect of this film is what it does best, but it seems like I liked the developing love more than most people based on their ratings and comments.

Yeah fine no one wants the dog to die, but the movie was more than that. The Idris Elba character slowly reveals aspects of his personal like to Kate Winslet in a unique way. You expect them being found to be the end of the film, but it isn't and I was all right with that.

As far as the ending goes, there weren't too many ways it could go and the director picked one. Didn't bother me and I actually enjoyed it.

I also love Kate. Have since her "Introducing Kate Winslet" card in Heavenly Creatures. Make sure everone watched that too.

Excellent Coop Game

Zombicide is an excellent series of zombie survival games. Black Plague is a much better theme than the original, and in many ways feels like a replacement. The game does take a while to teach, and it is easy to miss a few rules. However, the rule book does do a great job of explaining the rules.

I will say that there are not enough items in the base game. The starting items that you get are hardly worse than the good items. And there are only two "legendary" weapons, which only fit two specific classes. I'm sure the expansions fix this, but the expansions are expensive.

Overall, the game definitely provided us with plenty of cooperative entertainment. Just know that each game typically takes us twice as log as the scenarios suggest.

Everyone brought together

Contains spoilers, click to show

A movie that we have all been been waiting for. All heroes we have seen so far, come together to face the galaxies biggest threat. Thanos finally leaves his throne to collect stones which his generals have been incapable of retrieving.
Considering that if he had got up in the first place he would have done this along time ago and accomplished his goal. Any how, the movie portrays the heroes compiling a plan to stop Thanos by hiding the stones as best they can. It also shows that Thanos has some of the most powerful generals in reserve. I mean why not unleash them from the start?
So a flimsy plan, a good chance of survival, an epic fight. What more could you want?
Now here’s to hoping that they continue this on with the X-Men vs the Avengers
