Last night (Thursday) was the monthly comic book discussion at Speeding Bullet Comics hosted by Pioneer Library System. We talked about the comic book The Good Asian.
Since last I wrote, I have been to the theater twice. Last Friday, the wife and I went and saw the movie Speak No Evil. It was a movie. James McAvoy’s acting in the film was great. The rest of the movie….meh. Last night (Thursday) I saw Transformers One. It was a much better movie than I was anticipating. Really good IMHO.
Also last night, the first episode of The Penguin dropped on HBO Max. I watched it when I got back from watching Transformers. It set up the series pretty well I thought. Looking forward to the next one.
I finished up my first runthrough of Star Wars Outlaws. I finished the main story that is. I started another runthrough right after that. In my first ran, I sided with the Crimson Dawn. In this second runthrough I am siding with the Hutts.
However, I put a pause on Outlaws because I got the itch to play some Fallout 4. I started a new run of that game. Usually when I play FO4, I tend to lean toward playing as the Minutemen or the Brotherhood. Granted, I have done every runthrough. That is, I have played as every faction in the game. I haven’t really played as the Institute very often though so that is my plan for this run through.
Have I mentioned that I REALLY like Fallout 4? I really do. It is not only my favorite game in the Fallout franchise but I’m pretty sure that it is my favorite video game period. The anniversary of the release of the first Fallout is coming up soon so I’ll probably talk about Fallout again when that comes up. Have any of you played Fallout 4? If so, what do you think about it?
On this week’s episode of Rebel Rock Radio we talked about various sith topics such as the Sith Code, dark side specific abilities, and some notable Sith Lords. We also played music from Beef, The Dogmatics, and Black Ends.
And your track of the week is a new single from Carbondale, Illinois-based band The Copyrights. It is a new single that was released this past Wednesday. Enjoy!
That’s it for this week. Have a great weekend! See you again next time!
