  1. This study actually does a great job explaining why so many fans are frustrated with franchises. The "Culturists" are cancer and should be completely ignored.
  2. This movie was crazy in 1993. The soaring music, the visuals. The special effects. The dinosaurs. The humor. I miss when they made good original movies now and then. No lectures. No harassment. Just good entertainment. They spared no expense

    Forza Horizon 4

    Don't let the slightly older Forza Horizon 4 scare you... It's a hell of a beauty. This is a really fun game as well. It's on Xbox, obviously, but also Steam I think. Fun game to mindlessly unwind. check it out of you like pretty cars and arcade action.

    Spelunking

    Survivalist's Guide to Spelunking is another book I've supported on Kickstarter that adds to my world building library. I wanted more ready reference material for dungeon diving details for when I get around to those. This is also a great RPG reference if you are doing any of those d20 type games

    iPad Mini 6 - 64GB

    Earlier this year my Samsung Tab S2 finally gave up most of the ghost. It's just the right size (about the size of a book), that I use it heavily for reading purposes. This opened me up to replacing and Samsung no longer makes a small size tablet. In fact, only Apple does with anything that even approaches the power of the Tab S2 I was replacing. So I went with the Apple iPad Mini 6, 64-Bit Wifi version. Like all Apple products, it is solidly built. It's fast and stable. So, it's been replaced as my daily driver for tablet sized reading. It also finally gives me a Safari-based browser to check the site with. So, woot. Solid tool. Hate the screen keyboard. it lacks punctuation without going to extra screens.
  6. Your feedback has been noted. Please bring this up again during the discussion for 2024. That said, the overwhelming feedback on anthologies over the years has been to keep it as wide open as possible to allow creative authors maximum interpretation space to write.

    Batman Begins

    So, I really, really enjoyed this movie. It had a more grounded comic book movie approach than the over-the-top-campy the George Clooney and Val Kilmer Batman movies went. And of course, this set up The Dark Knight, one of the best comic book movies ever. Which, unfortunately was folllowed by the worse Batman movie of all, The Dark Knight Falls. The batman movie that is 2.5 hours long with about 5 minutes of Batman. Ugh. Stupid. But knowing the end of the trilogy does not stop the great enjoyment of the first two entries.

    Gotham - TV Show

    Let's see. This was an interesting show. I liked a lot of how they approached things, though it got repetitive later. They had good actors on it though.
  9. I don't focus entirely on fantasy in my inspirations for world building. I picked this up to explore some of the deeper side of the Dune universe. This is a very nice book in quality and imagery. It's interesting how different authors put together their worlds and make them work.
