BulletPoints - Of Ultron and Ant-Men

Welcome back to BulletPoints where we talk about movies, games, and other entertainment in more detail. We can talk about the art, the business, or just have a little fun doing something nonsensical like last week’s personal Silent Hill venture. This week, I thought we’d dive in some Marvel Comics lore now that most of us have seen Age of Ultron. Why? Because while I really quite like Age of Ultron it got some things wrong (adaptation wise) and while I’m not upset, I feel this is a missed opportunity that will lower the quality of this year’s OTHER Marvel film, Ant-Man.

Freak Out Silent Hill (Part 7)

School's almost done, we just need to finish our final exam in Virgin Sacrifices 101 before graduation. Can we ace our test or will we become another victim of the giant lizardy asshole?

Highlights - XCOM

Lately I’ve been playing a hell of a lot of XCOM: Enemy Within. And I’ve noticed I didn’t have content planned for most of this week partly because of that. So for today’s Highlights, let’s talk about the planetary defense turn-based strategy game known as XCOM and why we love it so much. 

Highlights - Portal

Welcome back to Highlights, the series where we talk about memorable moments from memorable games, movies, comics, books, shows, and more. Today we’ll do what I’ve wanted to do for a few posts now, video games. And I think we can all agree this one has memorable moments worth discussing. Portal.

BulletPoints: Wall Crawling Menace Co-op'ed by Marvel

A recent news report announced that Spiderman would be joining the ranks of the Marvel characters in a recent deal construed by Sony and Marvel. While Fox has yet to weigh in on the issue in regards to X-Men and the Fantastic Four, we can spend the time speculating on whether this news is good or not by skimming over some of the relevant facts, of which, we actually know very little.

Reloading: Project Almanac (Spoilers)

By the time this review is released, I’m willing to bet the film has been removed from most theaters in an effort to make as much room for the 50 Shades of Grey craze that is all but inevitable. That being said, I wouldn’t do a delayed-review of Project Almanac if I didn’t think it worth discussion. It’s not a spectacular film and it won’t do anything to rock your world. But it was actually entertaining and is one of the few “found footage” films that I can say does a good job with the concept without becoming a nauseating mess. So, yeah. Rather than talk about 50 Shades, let’s talk about Project Almanac.

Trailers on Trial: Poltergeists Persona-Fived

Welcome back to Trailers on Trial where we pass judgment on the snippets of film or game footage released to build up hype. Will the game/movie of today live up to said hype or do we even care with what we’ve been shown? Today’s defendants are the new Persona 5 trailer AND the remake of Poltergeist (2015).

Reloading - Dark Souls 2

It took me damn near a month to complete the game… then I delayed posting this review a week because my schedule was entirely too full. But I’d rather have a full schedule than delay everything constantly. So here’s the review some of you have been waiting for… Dark Souls 2.

Three-Way Podcast #37 - Dicks as Multitool Confirmed

We bring up a second podcast this week in order to get us up to date with news. And you get more entertainment in one week. It's win-win! Enjoy out latest episode of the Three-Way Podcast where we talk about everything from movies to the NSA to sex in Witcher 3 to Monty Oum. 

Three-Way Podcast #36 - Chin Deep in Meta

Hosted by Aaron and Nicole, we introduce the world to Ryan and Angel as they introduce us to the incredibly deep world of meta gaming. 

Reloading - The Boy Next Door (to Michael Myers)

Were you expected a review of Taken 3 or American Sniper? Well those probably aren’t happening. The former because I still have yet to see it and probably won’t in the near future. The latter because, again, still not particularly interested. How did I end up going to see The Boy Next Door? A series mostly fortunate events led me to seeing this with a friend where we both had a night off and wanted to actually go out. Was it my first choice of movie? No. But it’s also January and aside from Taken 3, there aren’t all that many options. Go figure. 

Three-Way Podcast #35: The Korracast

This week, on our return episode of the Three-Way Podcast, Erin, Nicole, and myself discuss Legend of Korra the series, the season, the finale. We lost some of the audio (you'll see at the end). But we saved what we could. Next podcast shouldn't have that problem. Anyway, enjoy!

Reloading: Indie Game Double Feature

We’re getting righty down to the wire with getting the last of my reviews out before start hitting out “Best Of” lists for the year. So while I found some time, I want to squeak in two indie-game reviews for your pleasure. There’s more I wanted to do, but we’re cutting it close as it is. This week we’re hitting One Finger Death Punch and the Early Access game Hand of Fate. Both are shorter indie titles without too much meat to hold their own full review. So they get to share (still two scores to give though). 

Reloading: Painting the town red with Transistor

Time to review a game that’s been out for so long, you probably forgot about it. But with the holiday Steam Sale just around the corner… this seems like an appropriate time to get this out. Transistor… here we go! 

BulletPoints: Going, Going and... Gone Girl review.

A review? Sacre bleu! What are we reviewing? Gone Girl.
