Stillbright
This story is complete with great detail in the story telling without becoming boring. However, the repetition of described actions, "If I have to I will use my mailed fists" gets very old very quick during important scenes.
Adventure
Video Game
Dragon Age 2
I hate this story though. Verric is being interrogated and is telling the story of the Champion of Kirkwall to someone from the Chantry. That's fine. However, there are 3 acts with 3 different bad guys and the first act and third act are barely tangentially tied together.
Video Game
Dragon Age Veilguard
The fighting in this game is probably the most fun I've had in a Dragon Age game, but it very quickly becomes repetitive. Not so much that you stop enjoying it, but it can be during the middle of the game. The overall story is what kept me involved even frustrated with how mission worked.
TV
Star Wars: Skeleton Crew
It isn't bad, but it isn't good for adults only. Jude Law does a decent job of play the Dred Pirate Roberts, sorry that is Princess Bride. One-eyed Willy? No, that is The Goonies. Well whatever his name is, Jod or so he says, but I always feel like he was holding back.
TV
What If...
This is an animated TV show and while I know that in the millennial and beyond generations, those are becoming more popular, I have a hard time paying attention to them. However, this show does something interesting for the first two seasons. The third season is where it falls apart.
Movies
Harry Potter Movie Series
This is going to be, if it isn't already, a classic for Millennials. We grew up with it, ABC Family plays it every holiday. It is just a great set of movies that ends so well. There are some parts that are not the greatest, and some massive changes as compared to the book,
Video Game
Dragon Age: Origins
The fighting itself has some cool moments, like when you kill a target you sometimes get these little slo-mo events or special flourishes and that is when it is fun. Otherwise, it is like playing World of Warcraft back in the day when you just hit a button and wait for the skill cooldown to finish

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
the scene where Harry and Voldemort take a tour of Hogwarts together, and it feels like an iconic scene as far as style. However, it is probably the most egregious use of CGI, but it might be the only one that really bothers me. The story overall is so well told. You get to see some serious...
Movies
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
"Harry Potter and the Extending Camping Trip," but I think this is one of the better and more true to book movies out of the series. There are somethings that I wish they had left in like the change in relationship for Kreacher and Harry, but I overall, it is well done.
Movies
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Movie)
Daniel Radcliff's performance alongside Michael Gambon is incredible. These two do a fantastic job of showing the student teacher relationship as it should be. Daniel has learned so much and has gotten so much better.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Movie)
If Voldemort is as strong of an Occulamentist or whatever they call it, then he should have known that Harry was seeing inside his head. I heard an argument that his arrogance stops him from thinking others are good enough to hide from him, but that is garbage. You'd think he'd know when someone..
Movies
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Movie)
This movie is really underrated, but at the same time I understand why people are not a big fan of this. We see these teenagers grow up and with that, some very questionable hair choices. I know this because this came out when I was high school and everyone was growing their hair out to match ...
