Lol you got any others on your list you wanna watch?
@Gwynbleidd yeah i couldnt get into the witcher either. I was so bored 15 min into the first ep. Maybe thats not fair because i didnt watch the whole first ep but idk it just didnt interest me
@Zyshioooh, you like horror too?! So there's a Spanish horror movie on Netflix right now called "The Platform." Its based on people who live in a tower, and the people at the top get the first choice of food while the people on the lower floors get leftovers. Def seems to have some themes on capitalism and seems very unsettling in general. I havent watched it yet but omggggg it looks so intriguing.
We have a topic for music, books, videogames, but I didn't see one for what shows or movies you're watching.
So yeah! Feel free to discuss your fave films or series that you have on your list.
I just finished watching this anime called "keep your hands off eizouken" and it was a really cute, wholesome anime about 3 high school friends who make an anime. I would recommend it if you're looking for a slice of life anime to watch, and if you're a fan of the animation process or learning about it. I'm also rewatching Bojack Horseman (netflix) and it's as enjoyable as ever. It's a show about this washed up, Hollywoo celebrity who has an ongoing battle with addiction. It's well written and funny, but it really hits you in gut with some of the darker themes. I would def recommend.
On my list: "I am not okay with this" (Netflix), the half of it (netflix), 1922 (netflix), and a couple others I can't recall right now. I love horror, so I'm always on the lookout for something creepy or unsettling. It's much harder for me to get into animes now-- I'll always like anime but I feel really picky about it. I love thrillers and themes of existentialism as well.
Wouldn't recommend: I tried watching this show called ID: invaded that a close friend of mine said I would like. While it was intruguing at some points, I found it to be convoluted as the plot went on. I kept falling asleep in later episodes because I just grew more and more disinterested so yeah.
Share your faves, your disappointments, and your reccomendations!
One the topic of the ffvii remake-- well here's my thoughts. I wish we had like... actual puzzles involved, maybe puzzles like in zelda or just anything really. Most parts are like, what other people said, naviagting through corridors and rooms and the pace makes it seem so sluggish. It would have been funner if there was more to explore, or just like, some fun puzzles to do.
I had fun with some of the quests, others I wasn't a fan of. I enjoyed the quest with the tonberry fight, not because it was necessarily hard but ive never beaten a tonberry in a ff game before so it was rewarding, even if it was easy lol. I liked how the behemoth quest tied in nicely with like 4 other quests. Other quests I found slow.
Honeybee inn was one of my fave parts. That dance scene was hilarious and fun.
I really enjoyed the battle system, but like some others said, i didnt like the phases of the bosses. My favorite boss was the boss in the train yard (i really enjoyed that part, wish they could have made it even creepier tho!) I don't know if I enjoyed the bosses that much.. It seemed like most of them could be defeated without stagger pretty easily, and its not like I was trying to grind levels or anything. I did play on classic, and Im going to attempt hard after i beat the game so maybe the bosses will be harder.
Loved the music, especially the song that plays when tifa and aerith team up to beat don corneo. I have so many workout songs from this soundtrack, and I listen to it ay work too. I love it!
Havent gotten to the end (pretty close though!) but i keep hearing stuff about time travel and like, how the characters might use it to... prevent something from happening I guess? And i really just hope they don bring aerith back for the sake of bringing her back.
Just my two cents.
Wow, I don't know what to say. Honestly? I think it could work. I'm feeling kind of conflicted about it, but he more i think about it, the more I think it doesn't necessarily ruin ffvii. Theres multiple timelines. The original ffvii was one timeline. This is a different one with a different story, and thats not necessarily a bad thing.
Normally I'm really iffy on dead characters coming back. And I still feel iffy about it, but this feels more like "what would happen if they lived?" instead of just bringing them back from death, if that makes sense. Besides, I absolutely love Zack, and to see how things would turn out if he hadn't died is interesting.
