I do remember a question he asked me; "Why can I be a Buddhist Christian, but I can't be a Christian Buddhist?" I didn't have an answer that day, but the next day my smart-ass-self said "It is a pointy fence, you have to hop off at some point."
This was not the story I was expecting. I also was concerned while reading it that it would follow the Children of Ruin story or some other "microbe" that is affecting that. However, it didn't turn out that way and the story was very well told, really leaning into the more human elements
I talked about this already, but this game has some serious weight and meat to the sound design. Character's voices are accurate to what is going on. You don't get calm voices after they have run a mile or been in a crazy gunfight/car chase. The car chases do feel weak
This book primarily focuses on the art of "strategy" and swordplay/fencing. However, the way it talks about that idea is more in line with attempting to think beyond the weapon to how it can be used efficiently and precisely.
Then you take this and turn around and look at the businesses that make things for the war and you realize pretty quickly that it is a scam. A racket. Unfortunately for me, this isn't news. I am well aware of Dupont making billions on the blood of people laying their lives for capitalism.
Hands down the best soundtrack and musical direction you'll ever watch in a movie. Songs that have the words posted throughout the environment. Actions that go to the beat of the song. It is awesome. I can't think of another soundtrack that goes as well and has such bangers throughout.
The action is where the reader gets their pay off. It is so explosive and enriched, that you have a great picture in your brain about what is going on. Again, my biggest complaint is that both the Secret Service, FBI, and the British equivalent of the Secret Service showed no tactics
What I find most interesting is the level of chaos this caused. I knew it was bad, but I don't think I realized how bad it was, and more importantly, could have been. I understand why people are concerned about nuclear power, but I think this show does a great job of explaining the differences
This show has so many ups and downs, but man do those ups feel like the DC comics universe could unseat Breaking Bad as one of the best shows if it keeps it up. I am just blown away by this show at certain points, but some episodes were a drag.
This is a Guy Ritchie film much like The Gentlemen with more CGI. In fact, the main fight scenes at the end and their CGI are one of the biggest hits to this movie. The characters are just to bendy and you don't have the grounded overlays of CGI enhancing a scene.
This is a millennial classic. I mean October 3rd is Mean Girls day. Some how I have watched this multiple times in the last couple years and because I have watched it so often I could have sworn I've written a review. But I didn't.
I really appreciate a book that puts a challenge to you after discussing a theory. As a Marine, the word "Practicum" really sets me up for success. It makes me want to complete them. Even without that, the practicums are directly tied to the chapter and are well within reach.
