Summer update 2021: getting rid of dependencies
Photo by Nattu Adnan on Unsplash I have been away from this site for a long time. I was busy buying a house and preparing a wedding, and my motivation took a serious hit. Things are starting to calm down so I will hopefully write more posts from now on. I removed some pages from…
Movie review burst #3
When Harry Met Sally Rob Reiner (1989) I will say this is not Rob Reiner's best work. I enjoyed it as you get that nice eighties throwback. But in terms of rom-coms it's definitely not among my favorites. When Marnie was there Hiromasa Yonebayashi (2014) I was genuinely touched watching this. It's quite different from…

I also enjoyed the dynamic between the main characters. The superb animation makes it worthwhile, even if the villain is a bit of an afterthought. Hook "If…
The 100th post!
I am not very happy with my work on the site. I don't spend nearly enough time on programming (because I'm very lazy) and I find writing reviews a bit redundant, I don't think I have interesting things to say on everything I see or play. I will cut down on review articles, and reorganize…

Astro's Playroom SIE Japan Studio - Asobi Team (2020) The amount of fun that is packed into this tiny game/tech-demo is nothing short of astonishing. It makes a tremendous job of showing you the different features of the DualSense controller. It's basically a collection fest through and through, but it was one of the best…
