Take a chance, roll the dice

On Tuesday, September the 6th, I finished Campaign 2 of Critical Role – The Mighty Nein. To be honest, I didn’t think that I would finish it. I usually start lots of shows, but I rarely finish any of them. Especially new shows I’ve never seen before. I’ll always go back to shows that I’ve seen before. This one was different. This was a journey. There were MANY times that I burst into tears. There were MANY times that there was spontaneous laughter as well.

A bunch of nerdy ass voice actors who sit around and play Dungeons & Dragons. That doesn’t even begin to begin to describe the characters they play. They are living and breathing characters.

It made me laugh out loud, cry like a baby at times, all the emotions in between.

500 hours, 56 minutes, and approximately 24 seconds start to finish. I finished the campaign in about 9 months. I think that’s about the longest I’ve stuck with a single “tv show”.

Thanks for the great ride, Critical Role.

Is it Thursday yet?

TinyTown Home Video: The Batman

I’ve been waiting for this movie since I heard it was being made. I only watched the first trailer, and then proceeded to not look at anything else about the movie. I truly wanted to go in completely in the dark.

I got this Saturday when I was in CaptialCity. I really wanted to watch it as soon as I got back to The Flat. I didn’t, I texted mom to make sure my dad was up and about so we could watch it together for Father’s Day.

Let me tell you both of us really liked it. For me, it took Edward another 10 years to finally turn into a bat. I think he did a great job as the title character.

I think you should go out and get this movie. 7 out of 7 Cullens. It was a great movie!

Lockup Library: Home Video

I just finished the final episode of the final season of Battlestar Galatica. All I can say is wow. What a terrific end to a series.

I think the last 3 episodes are the longest I’ve sat in one place – glued to the TV. I just had to see how it ended.

I’m so very happy that I managed to sit through the first season. That was the hardest part. It just grinds you. Once you make it past the first, you’re golden.

All I have to say is goddamn – The Adama Maneuver. Holy shitballs.

So say we all.
