The Devil Wears Prada (Film) – Review

A few years ago now at another (dead) site, I wrote about how my tastes differ from most men my age. Unlike other 20-something men who probably like watching Tom Cruise pretend he’s actually entertaining, I adore Aline Brosh McKenna’s adaptation of…

Keiran’s Reads of 2022

Warning: Some of the books in this article are for mature audiences, reader discretion is advised. Surprisingly, last year’s article about the books I read (and current reads) somehow sparked a bit of interest. To me, it was a clown talking about…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Moist Vessel” – Review

I’ve been waiting for the cold opens to actually be about something instead of just being a quick joke that has mostly nothing to do with the following events, this episode delivered. “Moist Vessel” – yes, that’s its name – is written…

Keiran’s Top 3 Games of 2022

I’m not the only one to ask this, but where has the year gone? It feels like two minutes ago May started, and now we’ve crept our way into the depths of seasonal depression and rewatching “The Husbands of River Song“. It…

You Can Pick Up Dishonored 2 On Prime

As an explanation for this month’s rather poor showing from Jeff Bezos’ free game drops, there are a few days this month when you can pick up some extra games via Prime Gaming. As the title suggests, there is one big release…

For me, capping off a book or a series is a very risky gamble for any author to pull off. While I had my misgivings with some of the direction that The Hawthorne Legacy took, I dove into Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ The Final Gambit with…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Temporal Edict” – Review

This one is called, let’s rock this place until the dilithium crystals crack! 1, 2, 3, 4! Joking aside, the cold open with its non-sequitur nature in this episode did make me giggle. Though that might have been from the fact I…

Fallout: New Vegas (PC) – Review

As I tried to explain during last month’s Prime Gaming rundown, Josh Sawyer’s 2010 hit Fallout: New Vegas has never been my go-to play in the series. RPGs and I never got along when I fell into my love of games, mostly for reasons…

Spider-Man 2 (PS2) – Review

I know we’re past the point of talking about the Spider-Men from the MCU phases and how it was special to have Takuya Yamashiro show up for that scene at the end of No Way Home. Nonetheless, I think it is worth going…

Mystery Games Are Free On Epic

Monday, I was very happy about a very Wholesome Snack, and it turns out Clay Murrow won’t be reprising his role as a no-nonsense red bloke with some big guns and a fish friend. On Wednesday, Armored Core VI got new details and…
