A mazing! There are only a hand full of books I’ve read that appear flawless and Ready Player One is such a book. It centers around Wade Watson, a reclusive teenager who spends a majority of his time jacked into the Oasis, a virtual reality most use to escape dystopian Earth. When James Halliday, multi-billionaire and co-founder, of the Oasis dies, a contest is set in motion which leaves the winner with his fortune and control over the Oasis. Wade, using abstract clues left by Halliday, must now race to find the prize before IOI, the evil conglomerate, uses Halliday’s inheritance to exploit the Oasis for their greedy and fascist purposes. I’ll get straight to it. From beginning to end, I would lose myself in this novel or minutes in, I would hover over five or ten pages. I can see, and agree with, the hype around this book. A good portion of the 80’s references flew over my head—90’s baby—but that didn’t take away from the experience. Ready Player One didn’t suffer from the unn...

[Rating 4/5] M urder and mystery has never been my thing, however, I was a big fan—still am—of Sherlock Holmes. The idea of trying out Murder on the Orient Express didn't seem so bad. I tried reading the book at first, in my efforts to gain a more in depth understanding of the plot before watching the movie, but that didn't turn out so well, as reading Crime, Mystery and the such never interested me. So I just went straight into the film. When watching this I remember that I do like when detectives piece together clues, that sometimes are too abstract for inclusion in what seems like an average case, as Sherlock did. Just a side-note, was I the only person that thought this had a feel similar to that of Pink Panther? Minus the clumsiness. Maybe it's just me but—whatever. I like the fast-paced style, movies that have that tendency always have my attention from the start. The feeling of trying to keep up always gives me a rush. When I started to read the novel,...

[Rating 4.25/5] I might be onto something here, as I'm doing yet again another anime review. This time it's different though, this time it's the highly trending, Devilman Crybaby. I've been hearing a lot about it for a while. Didn't know much about it, but I guess that was good in some sort of way, so I could form my own opinions on it. It seems like the typical anime that you would watch on a regular basis, it reminds me of—honestly I don't know what it reminds of, but it does look cool. This is all over the Internet currently, so I thought I would give it a watch. It's basically about this emotional teenager, Akira, who cries a lot. Things take a turn for the worse, when Ryou, a childhood friend of Akira shows up out of nowhere. He tells Akira of the existence of devils, and that they are secretly merging with humans in order to gain total control over Earth. They attend an underground demonic party filled with orgies and the such, where Ryo...

What—the—hell. Doing two Pokémon reviews back to back—I'm on a roll. Never thought I would blog about the same thing twice, much less do two posts in a week. Maybe I'll get a Rainbow Wing or something. At first, I really wanted to like this movie . Why? Because I prematurely saw some of the reviews, partly, something I don't usually do, as that can affect my views on the movie, or at least prove a challenge for me when I'm trying to form my own opinion. Sadly, I was wrong about all of that . Word of advice, don't see this movie if you're into memes—because that's all that this was. I don't understand, Pokémon movies are usually great , so I don't get why this one was—cringe. I was yet to see a Pokémon movie that completely disappointed me, until today. At first, the logics of the sequence of events was hard to not notice, but I quickly disregarded that, as I wanted to give it a chance . But it was just meme, after meme, after...
