Monthly round up post time!
Again there’s been no fic, which is kinda bleh but I did end up starting something (again) so we’ll see if that goes anywhere or if I become blocked.
At least this month I did finish a game, with The Chant. Like I’ve mentioned it’s a solid 7/10 and I hope the studio do more.
I listened to a lot of Spirit Box Radio because I got so into it, especially with the appearance of Oliver at last.
Alas this last week (when I planned to read a graphic novel, comics and watch stuff on shudder was plagued with issues so I didn’t do any of them. I also didn’t do much of anything else (apart from finishing The Chant) which has been an annoyance. I’m hoping July will go better and the issues of today aren’t symptomatic of the month as a whole.
***
Yesterday after making the post we went to town to see Indiana Jones and the trip ended up being oddly tiring despite us not doing too much, which is kinda… baffling. It’s not as if we went everywhere or got bags of stuff but we were both tired.
(All I got was a magazine, a book from The works sale and some nanoblock from game, hardly heavy stuff)
Also McDonald’s was kinda… lacking (other than the mozzarella bites and fries, whenever they have cheese things it’s always so good). So if we go again I think we might skip that. Not that there’s any films I wanna see till October (unless I do decide to go to a late spiderverse showing)
Brief thoughts on Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny under the cut (I’ll keep it spoiler free as possible).
In short it was fun and I enjoyed it! The key takeaway is it’s always acceptable (and necessary) to punch Nazis.
The opening, set in the past (as seen from trailers so not a spoiler) was longer than I expected it to be. The deaging stuff is really well done (mum even asked if some had been filmed before). The whole thing does look great overall and there’s some nice chases and such.
The ending might be divisive to some but I think it was a good one and it felt fitting.
There’s only two things in it that I didn’t like, but these were fairly brief things in the film. (I’m not gonna say what they are here as one of them is a pretty big spoiler, though if you have seen it you might be able to guess)
I dunno what else I can say though, partly because I don’t wanna spoil for people (I went in pretty blind) and partly because my brain feels fried from today).
