Media Log
What I've been watching, reading, and playing.
September 2026
Movies
- Malignant (2021) Not the scariest horror movie but engaging enough to keep me watching until the end. Really fun twist at the end.
Games
- Fire Emblem: Fortunes Weave (Switch 2) My first Fire Emblem game. Really fun tactical combat and so much to do. Didn't expect it to have so many mechanics.
August 2026
Books
- Beyond Vibe Coding - Addy Osmani I'm still somewhat on the fence with AI but I do feel like I need to learn how to best leverage it. This book seems decent so far and relatively hype free.
Movies
- Spiderman: Brand New Day (2026) Solid Spiderman film. Good introduction of a new franchise into the MCU. One of the better MCU films after Endgame.
Games
- Mario Kart World (Switch 2) Bought this because of the title music track. It's Mario Kart, it's a blast. Goes a lot deeper than it seems. Plan on digging deeper with shortcuts and item meta.
July 2026
Games
- Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok (Switch 2) A super fun but super grindy RPG. A ton of different characters to play and they all play differently. Great aesthetics. Feels like playing a lite MMO.
June 2026
Movies
- Mortal Kombat II (2026) Only worth watching if you can appreciate the MK fan service. Super fun if you do. Skip this if you don't.
- The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) I liked this one better than the first one. Same vibes as the first one but with tighter pacing. No Donkey Kong though :(
- Backrooms (2026) Big disappointment. Started off well but the movie didn't end up going anywhere. Felt like I wasted my time with this one.
Games
- Pokopia (Switch 2) Building homes for Pokemon is so fun.
