Cell phones today are more powerful than ever and capable of listening in on anything said around them. The apps we use are owned by people who make the bulk of their money from advertisements.
‘Far Cry 5’ manages to break free from the “Ubisoft open-world game” tropes, providing a gameplay experience that stays consistently fresh throughout the entire playthrough. The game may not be perfectly designed, but manages to be fun even during the most frustrating bits. The story and characters also surpass expectations, being very compelling to learn about throughout the journey. Ubisoft continues to nail their stellar presentation as well, this time in a whole new environment. It may be a rocky road at times, but the journey through it is definitely worth the trouble. Hope County is definitely worth the visit for those who’ve either never experienced this type of game before or for those who’ve become burnt out on the open-world genre.
The short documentary When Kids Wrote the Headlines: The Children’s Express/Y-Press Story details an Indianapolis program that allowed children as young as 10 to work alongside their slightly older peers under the watch of reporters for the Indianapolis Star.
Crying is a sign of weakness. That’s what society has been teaching us for a long time. It’s a sign of weakness, especially if you’re a boy. If that’s the case, I suppose I was very weak as a child. I cried a lot.
Pretty. Odd. finds meaning in vibrant personifications of nature and small doses of reality crouched in fantasy. A psychedelic naturalism and lively effervescence spills from its 15 eclectic tracks.
I don’t think anyone truly expected 100 Thieves, especially after their midseason slump, to go on a winning streak and burn everyone to ashes. Then again, I’m pretty sure I predicted that they could make that run if they kept up momentum. And they sure did. And we never saw it coming.
'Tomb Raider' is a somewhat unfocused action-adventure film that still manages to provide some charisma. Director Roar Uthaug gets confused in a visual style that defines our realistic expectations for most of the film, but is able to make up for it with a compelling character in Lara Croft. While it won’t redefine the video game movie subgenre, it still is an entertaining film to watch.
Overall, this episode provides spectacular views on Andrew’s life. The conflict within his life is revealed through emotional scenes with intense acting. The change in mood of the episode is consistent and leaves the audience wanting to see more. His motives seem to be making more sense as the show progresses.
My name is Audrey Bowers and I’m just like you. I drink too much iced coffee with my friends, struggle to find a decent place to park on Ball State’s campus, stress out about getting everything I’m supposed to have done and happen to enjoy a good Netflix binge.
“The Key” is actually an interesting episode, while at the same time being confusing and pointless. There were some seeds planted that will hopefully be brought back in cool ways later on. On the other side, there were points in the episode that either could’ve been handled better (Gracie’s entrance) or didn’t need to happen at all (Negan vs. Rick).
Unlike a typical action/adventure show, Steven Universe goes the extra mile by including heartfelt characters with realistic development, excellent music, and a mysterious backstory that touches on themes of war, identity, and good and evil. All wrapped up in a colorful, imaginative, and seemingly lighthearted cartoon.
At the end of the day, season 2 of Jessica Jones delivers what you expect. More drinking, more meaningless sex, and more incredibly dark and heavy subject matter. While there was no real big bad this season, that’s okay because it isn’t the focus of this season. The season succeeds because it’s Jessica Jones. This show is emotional and not for the faint of heart. If you want to cry, check out Jessica Jones season 2. It may turn off viewers who want the normal, light-hearted Marvel.
The struggles of every character are shown in this episode. Andrew’s financial troubles along with his relationship with his mom are shown. He uses her and eventually leaves her for Norman while she waits for him to return. The interaction between the two siblings shows that the Versace company is really hurting, and this episode touches the emotional side all throughout.
Spider-man might be the world’s most-loved superhero who spans multiple generations. His deeds and actions have inspired others to take up the spider-brand, and while there as many Spider-men as I have had broken bones, these four specific, badass women stand among the upper echelon of Spider-vigilantes: Spider-Gwen, Spider-Girl, Silk, and Spider-Woman.
“Dead or Alive Or” is the definition of a bad episode. Next to nothing happens to further the plot, God saves the gang far too many times to be believable in any sense of the word, none of the characters are likeable besides Dwight, and worst of all Eugene is still alive. Whether you call it fluff, padding, or filler, this episode has nothing up its sleeve and only serves to waste time.
