Zaccaria Pinball on Steam

Zaccaria Pinball brings you over 100 tables, including over 40 pinball tables officially licensed from Zaccaria. Zaccaria was founded by three brothers (Marino, Franco, & Natale) and was the 3rd largest manufacturer of pinball machines in the world (behind Bally & Williams). Played this on my xbox and I fear that I’m not in the target demographic for this type of video game at all. I find no joy in playing a vertical game on a horizontal screen, and pinball is downright boring to me. However, if you’re into pinball, this is a gorgeous game with what I hear is...

Sickness and Surgeries

Man I have had a doozy of a week.   Jury Summons for the middle of March! The timer button on my stove is now completely broken and it’s going to like $200 to fix the stupid thing, so it’s going to remain broken.  I’d rather buy a whole new stove with convection abilities than have to struggle along with this crap. Went to a softball game and ate too much stadium food and drank too many beers, it was a very fun event. I bought my wife flowers! My favorite and only mobile game is shutting down the mobile...

Lexx

Lexx: Created by Jeffrey Hirschfield, Paul Donovan, Lex Gigeroff. With Brian Downey, Michael McManus, Jeffrey Hirschfield, Xenia Seeberg. A group of disparate fugitives from an interplanetary tyranny find themselves in control of a massively powerful starship. I really wanted to finish this, but I just couldnt’ get through the modified version of the show that came after the first few tv movies and they swapped out the main lead actress. Not that it was the actress that was the problem, but it was the writing that just changed course completely and went from a edgy unique science fiction to standard...

Hell Divers

More than two centuries after World War III poisoned the planet, the final bastion of humanity lives on massive airships circling the globe in search of a habitable area to call home. Aging and outdated, most of the ships plummeted back to earth long ago. The only thing keeping the two surviving lifeboats in the sky are Hell Divers–men and women who risk their lives by skydiving to the surface to scavenge for parts the ships desperately need. When one of the remaining airships is damaged in an electrical storm, a Hell Diver team is deployed to a hostile zone...

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania: Directed by Peyton Reed. With Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas, Michelle Pfeiffer. Scott Lang and Hope Van Dyne, along with Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne, explore the Quantum Realm, where they interact with strange creatures and embark on an adventure that goes beyond the limits of what they thought was possible. I know you’ve seen reviews that knock this film, but honestly this was a fantastic movie that blew my socks off about 15 times. You really don’t need to know much about the character other than he’s named Ant-Man, they spell everything...

Fleishman Is in Trouble

Fleishman Is in Trouble: With Jesse Eisenberg, Claire Danes, Lizzy Caplan, Adam Brody. Toby Fleishman knew what to expect when he and his wife of almost 15 years separated: weekends and every other holiday with the kids, some residual bitterness, and the occasional moment of tension in their co-parenting negotiations. I honestly thought this was going to be crazier than what it ended up being, but there’s a ton of spoilers involved in talking about that situation, so if you haven’t seen it yet and you’re in the mood to really ruin your mood, watch the 8 episodes first, then...

Legion of Super-Heroes

Legion of Super-Heroes: Directed by Jeff Wamester. With Jensen Ackles, Matt Bomer, Darin De Paul, Ben Diskin. Kara, devastated by the loss of Krypton, struggles to adjust to her new life on Earth. Superman mentors her. Meanwhile, she must contend with a mysterious group called the Dark Circle who searches for a powerful weapon held in the Academy’s vault. I loved the title sequence of the movie, it has some great references to the original Superman film and even the Supergirl movie that I’m sure we’re all happy to forget about. The story opens with Solomon Grundy shooting up the...

Star Trek: Enterprise

Star Trek: Enterprise: Created by Rick Berman, Brannon Braga. With Scott Bakula, John Billingsley, Jolene Blalock, Dominic Keating. A century before Captain Kirk’s five-year mission, Jonathan Archer captains the United Earth ship Enterprise during the early years of Starfleet, leading up to the Earth-Romulan War and the formation of the Federation. I’ve struggled through yet another viewing of the entire series, this time staying 100% awake for 100% of the episodes, mostly because we were watching one or two episodes a night with dinner. It’s a shame the series never really got the resolution that I rightly deserved, as that...

Star Trek: Discovery: Wonderlands

In a desperate attempt to prevent the artificial intelligence known as Control from seizing crucial information that could destroy all sentient life, Commander Michael Burnham donned the “Red Angel” time-travel suit and guided the USS Discovery into the future and out of harm’s way. Starts off slow and in a manner that’s exceptionally similar to something that actually happened on the TV show, I think I need to rewatch season 4 in order to properly contextualize the meetings that Burnham has. I say it starts slow, but it definitely doesn’t stay that way, as this is more like a series...
