Starting completely fresh or with a new game+?

the second half >>>>

 

 can't wait for season 2. 

Hearing the Scottish actor who plays Snell imitate an accent is pretty awkward especially, after watching him in Westworld.   

Halfway through Ozark. I’m completely in love with it.

ok, i'm finally giving zelda botw a fair chance. my boy hooked me up with the switch version, and said i should at least put in 20 hours. i can do that.  i'm not expecting another OOT, so i think i have the right expectations. if at the 20 hour mark, i'm not sold...then it's not for me. i'm curious as to whether or not i'll like it. 

Be prepared to die a lot and to just get lost. It’s really amazing actually just exploring and looking at everything. This is the least linear Zelda game ever and the map is astronomically huge. It’s gorgeous to look at with it’s gorgeous art style. Just be prepared to be a little overwhelmed at first. 

Westworld tonight

Yeah, you're right. Hopefully they be as loyal to the book and Gone Girl was.

Premiering in July. Had no idea it was so close. Really glad I read the book now.

Trailer I just saw for the show when starting Westworld tonight.

Yeah Amy Adams would be a good casting choice imo. The other two major roles arguably even more important too. 

Kid actors these days are incredible so I have no doubt they'll get it right. They got the casting right on with Patricia Clarkson for the mom Adora role and a young unknown girl to play Amma. The show pretty much rides on her character being right because I think the other two can handle the material.

Penultimate episode of the season tonight for Westworld and it looks like a good one. Sad there's only two episodes left and we probably won't get season 3 until 2020.

Finished reading Sharp Objects @Ike . Was a fun read, still think Gone Girl is easily her best book but this would be second. If they are making this into a TV show I don't know how they are going to depict certain scenes....Deals with far more iffy subjects for film that Gone Girl

Thankfully it's on HBO so they can have free reign to do what they please. I think Amy Adams will be awesome in it.

Got to play a little of the Octopath demo. Game is really pretty and the presentation is incredible. The music is also just stellar. I’m actually really excited for this game and can easily see it score in the 9s if this quality lasts throughout it. Plus there are 8 separate stories which is just insane. 

Finally finding a little time to play some Detroit, that opening scene was intense. Game is gorgeous and the presentation values are high.

Yup. Play casual mode. Sooo much better. 

If I could only find the time to play. Being an adult sometimes gets in the way.

Those motion controls were the worst part of Until Dawn. Glad to know you can turn those off.

So I guess I’ll start RE7 in VR as well. E3 put me in RE hype mode. 

Watching Blade Runner 2049 again. It was my favorite movie of 2017.

The preview for next week’s episode 

So this show is essentially Breaking Bad: Midwest.

Starting Ozark.

Started season 5 of Arrested Development, strong start and looks like it’s back to business as usual after the mediocre season 4. 

Hereditary was good. It won’t be for everyone but it’s horror like The Babadook is the most accurate comparison I can give, and also a huge compliment. 

Seeing Hereditary tonight.

@Ike, I started reading Sharp Objects btw ;)

Nice, then you can criticize the show with me in the summer.  

There’s one role that they needed to really get the casting right, and I’m really curious to see if they can. 

These two pick ups.  

Yep, these are my kids. 

Got BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle delivered and bought Detroit.
