Hey Somethings!<\/p>\n
The holidays have come and gone, James and I are rested up, and it’s time to get back to it!<\/p>\n
This week’s blog touches a bit on some of my most enjoyable things from the end of 2021!<\/p>\n
For starters, I got a new job.\u00a0 Pay’s MUCH more than my previous job.\u00a0 Feels like it’s even less stressful so… bonus all around!<\/p>\n
I also did a fair amount of gaming towards the end of the year.\u00a0 Forza Horizon 5 dropped and, while the launch was buggy, I still immensely enjoy the game and play it daily.\u00a0 The big ‘sleeper hit’ for me was Inscryption.\u00a0 Is it a deck building card\/video game? Yes.\u00a0 Is it SOOO much more than that? Yeeesssssssssssssss.\u00a0 Can I say more without spoiling a lot of things for those who haven’t played?\u00a0 Nooooooo.\u00a0 What I CAN say, if you’ve listened to us, and you enjoy our style.. you get a good sense of the type\u00a0of people we are and the things we enjoy.\u00a0 If THAT entertains you, check out Inscryption… you won’t be disappointed.<\/p>\n
For Christmas I set myself up with HBO Max and started going through a BUNCH of stuff I never got to see in theaters.\u00a0 While “Matrix Resurrections”\u00a0is the big one, I won’t discuss that here as we have an episode coming out about it in the very near future.\u00a0 Besides Matrix, I also powered through “Godzilla vs Kong”, “Mortal Kombat”, “The Suicide Squad” and “Suicide Squad”.\u00a0 All of them.. solidly “meh” to be honest, with the exception of “The Suicide Squad” (the most recent one).\u00a0 Cena’s deadpan delivery as Peacemaker and Dastmalchian’s\u00a0Polka Dot Man definitely elevated it above “meh” into ‘enjoyable’.<\/p>\n
For TV?\u00a0 End of 2021 brought us Hawkeye (which I loved, ranks 2nd tied with “WandaVision” for me in MCU D+ TV) and The Book of Boba Fett.\u00a0 At the time of writing this, only the first episode has dropped so far but damn was it good and I loved how they connected it in to the greater Star Wars story and history.<\/p>\n
We’ve got a bunch of new episodes lined up and we’re back to blogs every Friday.. stick with us!\u00a0 2022 is going to be great!<\/p>\n
