Saturday Snippet #2 Last week’s Saturday Snippet wasn’t nearly as terrifying as I thought it was going to be … well, once I just clicked “publish,” at least … I’m still quite nervous since this story is so close to my heart, but you know what, I’m going to continue putting it out there. And

You know how I kinda shit on “Blow Up” because it was basically a more boring “Born to Kill?” I don’t think I used those exact words, but I kind of wish I had. Oh, well. What’s done is done. Regardless, my least favorite secondary character is very similar, in that they wanted to recreate

Being from another culture, a lot of pop references may go way over your head if you aren’t familiar with Japanese puns (they are so intricate and occasionally hilarious?) or their lifestyles, fashions, history, etc. One of the reasons Excel Saga was so funny was because it played with so many of the tropes in
-
While Return of the Jedi might not have the character development of The Empire Strikes Back or the innovation that drove the success of A New Hope, it finished out the trilogy in an incredibly satisfying way, ending the Darth Vader redemption arc that we didn’t know was happening at the time. And it probably

I have a rule now that I’ve been pretty good about following: “favorite” in terms of season or episode or whatever is the one that I watch the most. It doesn’t mean it was the best – I’m a huge fan of Surf Ninjas and have watched the movie more times that I am willing

You know, with all of the missions that Shepard and Company go on throughout the Mass Effect series, you’d think that picking just one as your favorite would be a daunting, near impossible task. For me, however, this was not the case. Of course, I did decide that I was going to choose one mission from each
-
See?? I’m trying to get all caught up. While Season Two was a decent improvement from Season One, Season Three? Oh, Season Three showed its older self how it’s done. With the popularity Friends had at that point, they had a bigger budget (as evidenced by better sets, more expensive wardrobes, famous guest stars, etc.),
-
I cant believe we’re almost halfway through the month. I guess time really flies when the country is a giant shit hole? Honestly, I think that’s why Parks and Recreation constantly draws me in: the people in the show are genuinely good people who want to do good things and work tirelessly to make sure that those
-
Of all the seasons, the first one is the most rewatchable. The desperation of complete extinction is offset with this underlying hope that doesn’t necessarily exist, at least not as overtly, throughout the rest of the series. Genuine joy in the various victories is common in the beginning, whereas similar moments occasionally punctuate loss and
-
“The Suffering Game” was … rough to listen to. Griffin even apologized at one point for how much shit he was putting Magnus, Taako, and Merle through, and even though I didn’t read the Reddit, I’m fairly certain it was rife with complaints and frustrations. As a listener, I was, for lack of a better
