Reloading - The Flash (Ah ha! Savior of the universe!)

Welcome back to Reloading Reviews where today I’m going to try and tackle reviewing a TV show. I normally don’t because the idea of condensing my thoughts of 23 episodes (and thus, nearly 20 hours) of content down into one small wall of text that I usually use to cover a 2-3 hour film experience or discuss the depths of a 10-15 hour game’s mechanics and lore. But I’m going to try, damn it. Today I can finally, after nearly a year, give my attention to The Flash. And if you don't like this, check out our other review from this week where I talk about dinosaurs eating people.

Reloading - Inkredibles

Time to get another review out of the way and I think this week I’ll finally get around to reviewing Splatoon unless something else happens to keep me from doing so. If this is online, obviously nothing happened, but feel free to imagine me looking around for some kind of “review attacker” who is trying to keep me from posting this. Let’s get this show on the roller!

Reloading - Insidious 3: Elise's Story

It’s another Monday and time for another Reloading. This week we’re gonna get a little scary while we talk about Insidious 3. Enjoy!

Reloading - Jurassic World - Still Miss Jeff Goldblum

Twenty or so years ago, I went into a movie theater for one of my first times. It may not have been THE first time, but it’s the first I remember. I went with my grandpa at the age of 3 or 4 and we sat to watch these big robot dinosaurs on screen come to life. We say the original Jurassic Park and I was blown away by it that, for years, I wanted to be a paleontologist. As I got older, I wanted to tell stories of that caliber or better. It’s twenty years later and we’re revisiting Isla Nublar in Jurassic World and… damn… What a ride.

Reloading: 5 Flights Up Up and Away!

Hey folks. I know our review schedule has been weird with a mix of older movies and newer movies, but this is nearing the end of the backlog. So thanks for sticking around and letting me do this. With that in mind, Reloading another review for you today. This week, it’s going to be 5 Flights Up, which stars Morgan Freeman and Diane Keaton.

Reloading - Sinderlla

 Me again. It’s Monday again. I suppose I should get up another review again. This week, let’s do Cinderella… again?

Reloading - Furious 7

We’re almost caught up on reviews guys! I’m only a month behind instead of two or three! Luckily we’re getting to a point where there aren’t any new movies coming out soon, right? The summer slowdown? Oh… wait… I’m thinking of video games. Never mind. Well… shit…

Reloading - Kingsman: The Secret Service

You guessed right folks! It’s another Monday, meaning another Reloading to review a game, movie, or thing for you! Today we have Kingsmen: The Secret Service… which, again, is a movie from January… being reviewed in May. Shut up, I’m getting there.

Reloading - Taken Too Far?

It’s time for another review here on Reloading. This week, Taken 3, reviewed via DVD copy because when it came out, I never got a chance to see it in theaters. Again, I’m still playing catch-up so feel free to badger me about it if you like.

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.

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.

Trailers on Trial - Five Nights at Teddy's?

Welcome back to Trailers on Trial (we settled on a name of sorts). Last time we discussed Fant4stic and this time we’ll be talking about Ted 2. Oh, boy. (And something else too).

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.

Weekly Recap 1/31/15

Goood morning everyone! I get the week is a busy time with work, school, criminal activity, and wanking. So I thought, out of the kindness of my heart and for your convenience, I would put together a recap of the posts throughout the week (complete with links for the full picture). Enjoy!

Reloading: The Legend Of Korra Book 4 and Series Review

After three years, four seasons, roughly 50-something episodes, and a long list of bullshit from Nickelodeon holding this show back from true greatness, The Legend of Korra has finally come to a close. I know my review is a little late to the party, but between all the scheduled holiday posts, delays due to my actual job, and delays and technical problems getting a specific podcast complete and online... yeah, I can't think of how this would have gotten up to you guys any faster. That being said... After much delay, here is my review... of Legend of Korra.

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!

Reloading: Hyrule Warriors! Come out to play!

I think I’m in a very action-game mood currently. I raced through both Bayonetta games with full intent to go back to the second to unlock more goodies. I have a review here of Hyrule Warriors and I’ll have another for Sonic Boom here sometime soon as well. Maybe I’ll get the nerve to jump back into Metal Gear Rising here in the next week or so and see if I can beat that boss I was having trouble with. Oh, right, I was here to review that Hyrule Warriors.
