https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue80QwXMRHg Kersti Rating: 8/10 Worth Seeing In Theaters: Yes. There are a few scenes that are just really cool to see on a giant screen. But if you miss it in theaters, don't sweat it. It really isn't anything you haven't seen in a theater before. MVP: Thor Ragnarok was a thoroughly fun movie. It follows Guardians… Continue reading Thor: Ragnarok Recommendation
Kersti’s Tips to Boothing
As an indie game developer I have to booth a lot. For those who don’t know, ‘boothing’ is when you show your products or services at a public setting such as a fair or convention. It can be very strenuous to booth, and often it is a large monetary investment. So I have compiled a… Continue reading Kersti’s Tips to Boothing
The Difference Between Action and Adventure
I recently encountered a situation where I would have expected that an 'Action' game and an 'Adventure' game would be distinct categories, with their differences recognized and well known. Sadly these terms have become so often misused, or worse used interchangeably, that the two terms seem to mean the same thing. The distinction of these… Continue reading The Difference Between Action and Adventure
How I Believe
An exercise in verbalizing a facet of my personal philosophy. Originally written April 14th, 2015. An ongoing quest in my life is to find out what I believe in. It’s not a quest with any end-goal, I’ll never ‘figure it out’, but the attempt makes me feel closer to myself and helps me learn why… Continue reading How I Believe
The Annihilation Trailer is Out!
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!
IT Movie Recommendation
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
Blade Runner 2049 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
The Support Class Human
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
The Frozen Disappointment
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
Million Yen Women TV Show Review
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
