The A+ cast & talented director can’t save #JurassicWorldRebirth from paper-thin characters, wildly uneven pacing, and CGI that’s worse than 2001’s Jurassic Park III.

As a consolation, at least this trip is less insultingly stupid and shorter than its predecessors from Colin Trevorrow.

I’ll take 20 tickets to see Tom Cruise put his life on the line…FOR CINEMA #MissionImpossible #TheFinalReckoning

#Severance season 2 is only 4 episodes in and already firing on all cylinders as a super compelling mystery box sci-fi drama.

Today’s episode “Woe’s Hollow” is must-see TV. The twists, character dynamics, and parallels to the corporate America experience are *chef’s kiss*

Astrobot is not necessarily my number 1 game of the year, however, I think it's more than worthy of the GotY title. It is the most successful marriage between innovative gameplay mechanics and accessibility since Super Mario Galaxy (2007). #TheGameAwards
