8.7 Rating are you kidding me, 3 is the right rating
25 March 2024
I quit watching the original series The Walking Dead numerous seasons before the end because it got boring, repetitive and tedious.

I decided to start watching this new series because Rick was back. The only problem is Rick is dumb as a bag of hammers and the only thing he does is constantly make the wrong decisions.

Michonne has complained a 100 times about missing time with her kids. Than why did you leave. There is no way a mom would go wandering across America to find her probably dead husband and leave her young kids to be raised by someone else.

Then there is the big ridiculous idea that years after the fall of civilization that a city would have a fleet of flying military helicopters. Absolutely no chance of that. The old fuel would have spoiled. Good luck in running a successful oil refinery, pipelines and delivering it to a military base. Plus you need constant maintenance on the helicopters and who is building the spare parts when things break down. They also shoot missiles like there is an unlimited supply.

Well at least this show reminds me why I quit watching the original years ago.

You have to be kidding me, this list is garbage.
14 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Yankee Stadium number 1 is a joke. The stadium is not famous the team is. How Comiskey Park even being on the list is laughable, shouldn't be on the top 100. Only contained stadiums from 3 countries which make this entire show useless. What about all the soccer stadiums from around the world. Not one of them was included. The Roman Coliseum should have been number one. Oh yeah another thing Fenway park is a really old giant urinal. I guess there is really not much more to say about a TV program which has been outdone by dozens of YouTube videos that do a better job. Peyton stick to football announcing, that is what you are good at.

Primal (2019– )
5/10
What is everyone raving about???
23 August 2022
I decided to watch this probably like many people did because they like Samurai Jack and of course the guy who did that did Primal.

First of all the animation that everyone is going nuts over in their reviews is so '90s and simplistic. People must look at shows like Arcane, Love, Death and Robots or Invincible which are a lot better animation. Since the series is hand-drawn, you can tell that it reuses a ton of drawings from scene to scene.

People also say what a fantastic story Primal has. First of all Primal has no dialogue to help explain or move the plot along which a lot of people see as a huge positive, but I do not.

There are only 4 plot elements in the series

Run Fight Eat and Sleep

So for instance, 1 episode is basically Run Fight Eat Run Run Sleep and then every episode after that is just a variation on these elements.

I have been on IMDB for a long time and find it unbelievable how high the marks for this show are and how around 90 percent of the reviews are 10 out of 10.

Oh well, I have stopped watching this series and will not pick it up in season 2.

Michael Bay Does It Again
24 July 2022
This has to be one of worst movies I have seen in years. Every character in the movie be it cop or criminal are dumb as a bag of hammers. The dog is by far the smartest character in the movie. How do these absolutely horrible movies get green lit. Do not waste your time on this one, there is very little to enjoy about it.

Fall Guys (2020 Video Game)
4/10
Fall Guys renamed Crashes All the Time
21 July 2022
Played this game for around 10 hours and it was lots of fun. One day it was working the next day Blue Screen of Death when starting it up. Tried to fix error, didn't work. Uninstalled, reinstalled in new directory, didn't work. All I get now is BSOD. For how long this game has been out I can't believe that major bugs like this still exist. I just deleted it and it is free on Epic now and even that is too expensive, don't bother with it.

What are people laughing at?
22 February 2022
Have watched and seen live a lot of standup in my lifetime and I tried and abandoned watching this guys 4 part special on Netflix.

But I tried to give him another try after reading the reviews of this special. I turned it off half way through because he is not funny and he drones on and on without me even smirking at anything he says.

I know comedy and standup are especially fickle for what people like and I guess I just don't like this guy.

Ghost of Tsushima (2020 Video Game)
10/10
A Masterpiece of Video Game Excellance
20 February 2022
Just finished Ghosts of Tsushima (PS4) and I have played a lot of games and a lot of open world games and this has to be one of if not the best game I have ever played.

Overall 12 out of 10 Graphics 12 out of 10 Story 11 out of 10 Game Mechanics/Game Play/Combat 12 out of 10 Soundtrack 11 out of 10 Gameplay Audio 11 out of 10

I have played this game for over 90 hours almost completing everything there is to do and it never become dull and was exciting up until the very end. The scores I gave this game are indicative of how much I liked it. If you are looking for a game that is challenging and great to play, I would highly recommend this one. Definitely the top game of 2020 and yes, it is better than the Last of Us Part II (which I finished).

Foundation (2021– )
2/10
Terrible absolutely terrible.
30 December 2021
I remember first hearing when Peter Jackson was doing LOTR and I read the books many years before and I really hoped he would not screw it up. Along with everyone else out there, we found out that he did a magnificent job of the trilogy.

This is not the case with Apple's treatment of the Foundation books which are one of the best sci-fi series of all time. I don't think the people who made this read the books at all. If you haven't watched this series don't, just read the books or listen to an audio adaptation. I will not be watching season 2, they will probably introduce zombies somehow because Apple absolutely does not know what they are doing. Not holding out any hope for Apples treatment of the prequel to LOTR, they will probably add robots or something.

Why? The world certainly did not need this game.
24 November 2021
I would rather have root canal than play this game again. The first one from years ago was fun and challenging but this one is just a big pain in the behind. Maybe I just don't like games which you constantly die.

Grey's Anatomy: Tradition (2021)
Season 17, Episode 15
1/10
Another terrible episode
26 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Hmmm so when Tom says he wants to work for Avery when he goes to Boston at the end of the show, two lines stuck out to me. "People who look like me made it this way", referring to how white people have ruined this world. The other line Tom said was "I will help you understand how ignorant white people think", that is self explanatory. I wonder if these two statements were directed at any other race how the world would react. Nice on Shonda showing your true colors.

1/10
Wow what a terrible episode.
27 March 2021
I rarely write reviews of episodes but with this one I feel I had to put in my two cents. This season has not been that good which is fine for a show that has been running this long but this episode was absolutely terrible. If this show has not already jumped the shark, it has now with this episode.

Interesting documentary about a pop band who went disco.
13 January 2021
I actually liked watching how the band made it's way into music stardom. The only things about I really didn't like is that they never mentioned but only showed a still in the background of Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band the Bee Gee's movie which is one of the worst movies of all time and to any Beatles fan a kick in the privates. The other thing I didn't like is how Bee Gee's deluded themselves that the band that embodied disco couldn't believe they had to pay the price when that music genre fell from grace.

Good open world game that has a lot of content.
9 December 2020
I liked this open world game but not as much as Metro Exodus or the new Tomb Raider series but it has a lot of things going for it like graphics, story, lots of play time and is pretty fun to play. I would recommend this to anyone who like open world games and zombies.

Deadlight (2012 Video Game)

An terrible game I wish I could give 0.
5 April 2020
Almost everything about this game is terrible including the checkpoint system, clunky reloads, constantly having to do over and over sections because you die and no checkpoint at the half way point. Couldn't wait to delete this game.

Control (2019 Video Game)
2/10
Cons Completely Outnumber the Pros
21 October 2019
The pros of this game are that it has good graphics, a good story and some interesting game mechanics like launch and the ever-changing gun for the director. However, the cons vastly outnumber the pros.

After even playing more of the game the absolute worse check point system of any game I have played, total dumpster fire of a system. Do you like starting check points 5 minutes away from where you died and have to fight your way back to a boss fight only to die again and do it all over again? This would also include large amount of times between check points and having to go back and keep doing over the same old garbage.

Do you like especially long game load times?

Do you like when every once in a while, you go into aim mode for your gun and the graphics basically block your entire view of the enemy you are shooting at?

Do you like long, long, long gun reload times? The worst reload mechanic of any game I have ever played. It is the same gun that morphs into different models but switching (Grip, Charge, Pierce etc..) to other models does not mean you have a full magazine you only have one reload for all guns.

Do you like whenever you empty your gun or use up all your energy the reload times basically double so you are left defenseless?

Do you like getting a very limited amount of resources to buy upgrades and find out that the last gun you can purchase in the game should have been essentially labelled GARBAGE( it is called Charge don't bother with it), and you find out to late that it was just a waste of resources?

Do you like a poor mapping mechanic and getting lost and a lot of needless running around?

Do you like when you are low health and near death to have the screen turn almost completely red and not be able to see your enemies?

Do you like saving up to increase your health only to find out that it doesn't matter because the enemies still one or two hit kill you anyways? (This is probably the most annoying feature of the game).

Do you like walking a few feet out of a room you just cleared only to find everything has respawned? Learn to dash by these idiot enemies.

Do you like being behind full cover only to be one shoted by an enemy you can't see?

If you answered yes to all or some of the previous questions than this is the game for you.

This game becomes very frustrating and if I knew now before I started the game, I would have never bothered to play it. By the end of this game which I finished, I absolutely hated it (Deleted the game right after finishing it). The finale is just wave after wave of guys with only one check point at the beginning of the level that I had to repeat a number of times (that happens a number of times throughout the game). Will not play another game developed by Remedy again.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood (2019 Video Game)
3/10
Total Dumpster Fire, Avoid At all Costs
3 September 2019
I have played all the recent incarnations of Wolfenstein including the New Order, the New Blood and the New Colossus. Those games rank from very good to excellent. Youngblood is terrible it should not even be considered part of the series. I will go over a few of the major problems.

I played with the AI as my coop partner. The coop partner is as dumb as a bag of hammers. If you are fighting a boss it goes right up to it and just stands in there and shoots until you have to go rescue them. You can't finish bosses because the AI keeps losing lives for you.

The worse thing if you lose a boss battle it sets you back to when you enter one of the Brothers (boss area). This makes you do over 15 to 25 minutes over again to get to the boss area. Bleep that.

You constantly have to keep going over areas that you have been through to get to the next mission and fight in the exact same areas. If you clear an area and step out it for even a second and step back it is fully stocked once again, what a waste of time.

The map is worthless and garbage.

The main complaint that everyone finds is that the earlier Wolfensteins had a very good story. This one has a nonexistent storyline. It is boring and does not try to absorb your at all.

Everyone knows it Bethesda so can you say micro transactions.

The final straw for me was during one of the boss battles I was to pick up 2 computer keys after killing the bosses. I killed both bosses and got 1 key but where they said the other key was there was nothing. I tried for 15 minutes trying to get to the location of the key and could not pick it up where it should have been on the screen. That was it for me, I deleted the game.

I compare this to the last AAA game I played Metro Exodus which I would give a 9 out of 10 and this one fails in every respect. Bethesda hopefully the new Doom game coming out will be a whole lot better. However Fallout 76 and this dumpster fire does not make me think it will be much better.

What's that smell, oh wait it is this show, it smells like garbage
21 September 2014
This show is garbage.

1. The acting is terrible. 2. The writing is terrible. 3. Only 2 episodes in and is totally predictable. 4. The guy in the Northern Lights outposts directing them to California is a good plot device but you should not have made him a wimpy pansy ass.

I watched 2 episodes and that will be it. Most of what SiFy comes out with other then Battlestar and SGU is crap. I'm surprised a giant snake/shark/spider has not jumped out and tried to eat them.

I have to add more lines to meet the recommended IMDb requirement so here it goes.

This show sucks. This show is the south end of a north bound horse. I am going to the bathroom right now and going to drop this show off at the pool

That was fun thanks for making me do this IMDb.

Don't waste your time with this one.

Stop making movies like this
29 August 2014
This new trend in documentaries is very annoying.

Here is the formula about the person making the doc. They are not famous, they really liked or geeked out over something and now want to talk to like minded people and gush over the past and how something that was very good like "Calvin and Hobbes" made them feel and you really don't find out anything about the person or people involved in the thing they love. It is about a bunch of nobody fan boys.

Also refer to "Done the Impossible" for a another piece of garbage in this genre.

Mr. Watterson created a great comic strip years ago and is a very private person from what I have read. I would have liked to know more about him and less about the people who liked his comic strip.

True Blood (2008–2014)
5/10
Series taking a header into the ground
19 August 2014
I doubt that I have watched a series that has gone from what I would consider a very good show in the first 3 years. A rating of 75 to 82 out of 100 for the first three seasons. To 30 to 50 out of a 100 for the last 3 seasons. This last season is especially slow, meaningless and horrible.

What happened did they kill off the writers from the first 3 seasons or did the writers see that this series was dying the "True Death" and leave.

I actually do not care any longer about Sookie, Bill, Eric or the rest of the cast of characters especially Tara and her moronic mother.

And really could you stop the CRYING. Every scene one weak ass character after another breaks out in tears. If you had a drinking game where every audience member had to take a shot when someone broke out in tears you would find over half the audience dead from alcohol poisoning before the show ended.

Truly sad to see a show with such promise hang on way to long and end this way.

Boring and overrated.
25 October 2005
I have seen all the best gangster pictures like Godfather parts 1 and 2, Goodfellas and Scarface (the really old one and the Al Pacino one) and decided to watch this movie again for the first time in twenty years because I read the Leone turned down the chance to direct the Godfather and later on made this movie.

I just don't understand how this movie is ranked 115 on the all time list of movies on IMDb. This movie is unbelievably boring it is like watching a snail run the 100 yard dash. By the end of the four hours I couldn't care less about what happened to any of the characters. Noodle is dishonourable thug who should have pushed in the back of the truck at the end of the movie. This is a very over rated movie and does not even come close to standing up against Leone's westerns.

5 out of 10 and that is generous.

Piece of crap
16 October 2005
The movie is absolutely terrible. Based on a true story, you might as well say Star Wars is based on a true story. This story does not contain key plot lines from the first one or the original so called true story such the losing of the money for the caterer or the red eyes out by the boat house which was very scary when I was a kid.

This idea of flashing images, such as at the end, as if it was supposed to be scary has to leave horror movies. I do not see why these images and making a sound like your hands are going down a chalk board is anything annoying.

Do not see, do not rent. Not worth the trash you take to the curb every week.

The Hours (2002)
4/10
The most boring movie since Chariots of Fire and Driving Miss Daisy
3 January 2004
Why is it that the Oscars feel they always have to nominate at least one movie that makes the audience slip into a coma. The last one being Gosford Park. This movie is crap and I could care less about the characters.

This movie feels like someone is slowly drilling into your head with a dull bit.

Avoid this piece of pompous crap at all costs.

Move over George Lucas there is a new King of Movie Trilogies
17 December 2003
After seeing the third Matrix and finding it very disappointing I was a little worried about the Return of the King.

But I worry no more.

The final chapter makes this the best movie trilogy of all time. Although all the movies stand on there own, the synergy of them all working as one cohesive picture is spectacular.

This is the best movie of the year by far and is amazing as the concluding chapter. So many series fail by the final chapter such as Godfather 3 and Matrix Revolutions but this series just keeps getting better.

I give this movie my highest recommendation.

Signs (2002)
4/10
Very over-rated movie
17 February 2003
I usually do not put my comments down for a movie but I think when a movie is very over-rated like this one I want to give my two cents. My biggest problem with the movies is that the plot hole are huge and I think you may see my point after I list the top 5.

5) Any race that flies across the solar system and can cloak themselves from all earthly radar would not be able to have their communications picked up by a baby monitor.

4) I don't if you know people that have asthma but anybody I know has their puffer at all time no matter if it is the end of the world or not.

3) Any race that flies across the solar system can break through a wooden door. Come on give me a break where are are the land weapons. That air was explanation earlier in the movie is weak.

2) Has anyone seen CNN when their is a hurricane in the states. The grocery shelves are emptied, long lines of people leaving, people in churches etc. There was no panic in this movie not even by the father trying to save his two children.

1) The biggest loophole is that the movie eludes to the fact the aliens want to harvest us but water is poison to them. Last time I checked the human body is 80-90% water and would mostly be poison to them. What are they going to do put us in a dehydrating tanks to get rid of the poison.

Piece of Crap
2 April 2002
I rented Jeepers Creepers based upon reviews from critics and individuals on the net. This movie is the most predictable, over-acted, unscary piece of crap movie of the year. I can not believe anyone gave this movie a good review. Give me a cocktail napkin and a couple of seconds and I will write the sequel. I just hope this does not start a franchise horror movie like Freddy and Jason.

Die creeper die.
