Not as terrible as I was led to believe. I suspect a lot of people are forgetting how low the ceiling is for MCU quality on average (and, conversely, how high the floor is). This may be *another one of those*, but at least it only clocks in at 2hr and 9mins.

Handful of really fun moments (esp. towards the end) but mostly passable sci-fi gobbledygook. Majors is awesome (if underutilized) as Kang, Douglas is super checked out throughout but Rudd is *just* charming enough to make the flimsy and thinner aspects of Quantumania work.

I've clocked something like thirty hours on the Nintendo Switch version of The Witcher 3 and I think 2023 might be the year I get deep into Gwent

Bizarre to not only feel massive FOMO about not being at CES this year but also kinda looking forward to reviewing new smartphones in 2023.

That third season of The Witcher better be one of the best things Netflix has ever released after Blood Origin turned out to be everything a cynic might fear.

I can only hope Witcher: Blood Origin provides audiences with some appreciation of how bad The Rings of Power could have been.

Glass Onion dethroned Die Hard as last night's Xmas Eve flick. Thrilled to discover it's even better a second time around.

Why do we call them “central banks” and not “apex creditors”?
