  1. Falling Down (1993) This movie is crazier than expected. I enjoyed it.
  2. Season two is about to drop. I was pleasantly surprised with season one.
  3. Good episode.
  4. The best scene in the movie, hands down. DiCaprio's performance is incredible.
  5. I can’t believe I overlooked this movie. It’s incredibly entertaining, hilarious, and kept me engaged the whole time. And the cast is just fantastic!
  6. It's the best book I've ever read. However, I wouldn't go so far as to say it's superior to Actualized.org. What I particularly appreciate about Moby-Dick is its exploration of determinism and fate.
  7. Great movie. Tense and funny.
  8. Thank God it was just a dream.
  9. I never watch movie trailers; I rely on the premise, genre, reviews, and my gut feeling. I actually enjoy lists, like the IMDb Top 250, WGA, and others. Plus, ChatGPT knows my taste and recommends movies for me.
  10. The ending of this movie is totally wild!
  11. They Live is a fun and engaging movie for anyone interested in themes of awakening.
  12. Vacancy is a surprisingly good film. Very watchable.
  13. Compared to what we've experienced of season 2 up to this point, season 1 was more compelling.
  14. Jeepers Creepers really shines in its first half. Overall, it's a very entertaining film. The sibling relationship between Darry and Trish was particularly well-executed. Justin Long also stars in two other excellent horror movies: Drag Me to Hell and Barbarian.
  15. I Know What You Did Last Summer is a fun movie. I love Sarah—she was fantastic in Buffy, which I think has some of the best storytelling in any TV show. Joss Whedon’s Firefly is amazing as well.
  16. Love Liza is worth watching if you're a PSH fan.
  17. Nothing beats SFX in my opinion. VFX opens up a whole new world of possibilities, but no matter how impressive the effects become, they can’t match the groundedness and presence of SFX.
  18. Yeah, it's definitely more in line with System Shock and BioShock than the first Prey. Even so, it has its own unique vibe, which I really liked. It's a pretty tough game, too. My only real complaint is that I wish it were twice as long. The ending feels more like a halfway point than a real conclusion.
  19. Suicide Club is surprisingly funny and not at all sad. Being a Japanese film, you can expect a certain level of weirdness from the start. Honestly, it was mostly boring, but it did have its moments.
  20. I just finished Prey, and it was a great game, though I thought it was a bit too short. The story and gameplay could have been improved, especially the ending, which could have been more action-oriented. I never even got around to using the psi powers. I might check out the Mooncrash DLC.
  21. While the book had its good parts, I'm hesitant to fully recommend it. The author's writing didn't grab me as much as I'd expected. Perhaps reading the quotes on Goodreads would be sufficient. Here's a video to check out:
  22. I'm currently playing Prey (2017), and even though it’s unrelated to the original game, it’s surprisingly good. I’ve never experienced a game quite like this before; it has a really nice vibe.
