https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufaDurSCKOk The second of my 'books to read before they become movies in 2018' now has a trailer! And it looks really awesome. Somehow they have nailed the visuals for me. They are sufficiently surreal, with just the right amount of familiarity to put it on that border of unnerving and creepy. It seems like,… Continue reading The Annihilation Trailer is Out!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKJmEC5ieOk Kersti Rating: 8/10 Worth Seeing In Theaters: There are some pretty awesome visuals that are cool to see in a theater setting, but overall the theater experience didn't feel entirely necessary to the enjoyment of the movie. I recommend seeing IT while in theaters, but no need to lament if you miss the opportunity.… Continue reading IT Movie Recommendation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZOaI_Fn5o4 Kersti Rating: 8/10 Worth Seeing In Theaters: Yes the visuals are amazing and worth seeing on a giant screen. But go only if you can stand loud Inception-like soundtracks. MVP: I haven't seen the original Blade Runner in a very long time, and I remember surprisingly little about it. 2049 stands on its own as a… Continue reading Blade Runner 2049 Movie Recommendation
In Support of Followers There is a huge stigma attached to the idea of being a ‘follower’. We hear follower and instantly think of sheep. A follower is blind. Someone who does what is told, someone who accepts without question. There is such a stigma that even when people don’t consider themselves leaders, they will… Continue reading The Support Class Human
This post contains spoilers for the movie Frozen. I wanted to like Frozen. Let me clarify: I don't think Frozen is a bad movie. I loved both aspects I expected to tolerate: Olaf and the music. The characters and relationships were fun and relatable. So, why was Frozen disappointing? I had expectations that were far… Continue reading The Frozen Disappointment
Kersti TV Show Rating: 4/5 On Netflix! MVP: I highly recommend this show. It is only 10 episodes long, a fully contained and completed story. It is different from most tv shows, and well worth your time. Though seemingly dull, the main character in surprisingly intriguing. Million Yen Women is gripping, but soothing, intense, but… Continue reading Million Yen Women TV Show Review

If you plan on watching the show, I highly suggest you don't read this post until after you've done so. However, if you're still on the… Continue reading Little Witch Academia: Changing the World
Thoughts on Inventory Management Design in Video Games I am a pack rat gamer. One of my favorite things to do in video games is to collect things. If there is random shit to pick up, you can bet your britches I will go out of my way to do so. As you can imagine,… Continue reading The Pack Rat Gamer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mnj-MXs1yVU Kersti Rating: 7/10 On Netflix! MVP: Not cinema gold, but worth watching. If you are a stepparent, or (like me) have a stepparent that you love, this movie is for you. What starts off as an amusing concept eventually becomes a surprisingly touching story about the unique challenges that new step children and step… Continue reading Little Evil Movie Review
