  • The Hobbit: Battle of Five Armies Is Depressingly Bad

    The Hobbit: Battle of Five Armies Is Depressingly Bad

    Here we are. The last movie. The worst of the whole trilogy and one of the most disappointing films I have ever seen. During his attack on Laketown, the dragon Smaug is struck down by the hero Bard. Now, the Lonely Mountain is free of the beast’s tyranny again. But Bilbo and his friends can’t…

Fish-Man Island had some great themes, but felt like a chore at times. Punk Hazard was more or less a setup arc with disappointing villains…

    Five Night’s at Freddy’s 3: Alone Together With the Nightmares

    This one feels like a personal attack against me. “Oh, not a fan of the jump-scares?” cackled Scott Cawthon. “Have one every ten seconds! Hope you didn’t like your eardrums!” Which is a shame, because aside from that, this is my favorite Five Night’s at Freddy’s game. You play as a security guard for the…
