If the characters and story of Pragmata don't interest me, should I even bother?

I started watching every movie that even looked remotely appealing in my free time because Twitch became entirely unrelatable after the Phasmophobia times.

Coachella? Oh you mean that music festival that used to actually be fun before it became an influencer con?

A ★★★ review of Saw X (2023) A good enough spin on the Saw franchise to be worth watching once. I can imagine this movie sort of killed the franchise for the moment however. The gore sub-genre seems pretty tired to me and there are others doing it better. *Not recommended for distracted viewing

Just not good enough boxd.it/dMBD9h

Great Chris Rock performance boxd.it/dRkna5

Disturbingly elaborate payoff boxd.it/dRanyh

Great oh shit moments boxd.it/dQ5q5X

Best since the first boxd.it/dQ0PPL

A ★★★ review of Saw V (2008) It doesn't suck, and the "teamwork" angle is bound to please someone. This is honestly more than I'd hoped for, and at least isn't a step back from IV. Not bad for a film series that seems to have consistency issues.

Teamwork stands firm boxd.it/dQ0L8j

Finally bounces back boxd.it/dOZWWt

A ★★½ review of Saw III (2006) Not sure how this series went from not as good as Saw 1 to even more not as good as Saw 1, but yeah... this story is sort of dry. *Not recommended for distracted viewing

Still not as good as the first boxd.it/dOViyj

A ★★½ review of Saw II (2005) Saw II feels like "what if we applied the logic of making more Scream movies to Saw." It watches like it has that cash cow mentality. Unfortunately this results in something so performative that it just doesn't live up the original.

Feels like a cash cow boxd.it/dNtLvN

One of the best payoffs in horror boxd.it/dNgE6l

A story of unchecked opportunism boxd.it/dR1mQ7

I’m going straight to hell 😆 boxd.it/dTSvDv

After several years of watching Twitch morph into some of the most unrelatable normie bullshit available on the Internet today, I have decided to move my content towards primarily long form videos and secondarily short form videos on YouTube and TikTok, respectively.

Please someone recommend some game streamers who aren't ridiculously overacting. Sincerely I want to watch some genuine personalities and not personas.

Google Gemini just gave me all the receipts for how social media creators have rebranded tribalism as authenticity and it’s really wildly scientific psychology stuff. I am excited.

The iPhone “Fold” will end the battle between vertical and widescreen video formats. No one will want to watch vertical after this.

Adjusted video games on my radar this year:
Diablo IV DLC
Saros
Forza Horizon 6
Grand Theft Auto 6

If I were a video game developer, I would target Series S at 60fps and never move that needle for like 10 years.

Modern video game designs are so annoying that I was eventually going to quit playing most new releases anyway. But now it’s just responsible to quit due to console and PC prices.

Most video games just became unreasonably expensive for most people. Good job @xbox.com @steampowered.com @playstation.com @valvesoftware.com

If you say “in every bite” in everyday conversation, your obsession with food has gone too far.

I swear the Internet is like 90% performative bullshit. How is anyone supposed to believe in any of this?

A ★★★★½ review of Phenomena (1985) This is one of the most bizarre horror movies I've ever seen. Clearly low budget but the cast is perfect in every role. I think I've watched this 15 times at this point and I still cannot wait to watc...

Weirdly intense boxd.it/dAGirr

A ★★★★½ review of Project Hail Mary (2026) Project Hail Mary is surprisingly the most human science fiction movie I have ever seen. It paints a broad canvas of emotion, making the smallest of plots look epic. The film cements Ryan Gosling as a...

Best 2026 Movie Thus Far boxd.it/dCwmqb

Meta is shutting down their metaverse. This trend was blindly funded and years later, still nothing to show. ASI is currently being blindly funded to a much larger degree with nothing to show. Are we going to wait 5-6 years for results this time?

An influencer can't
Play the video game poorly and
Accept a paid partnership from the publisher and
Meme through the game in content and
Represent gaming culture at the same time

Two important points:
1. Devs “can” fine tune DLSS 5 functionality if they choose. More than likely - similar to RT - they will be pressured not to in order to save time.
2. Gamers “can turn off DLSS 5.” Some games force upscaling and RT. This may be the same later.
