Is it just me or does 2022 sound more futuristic than 2021? Okay yes,
technically, it is more in the future than 2021. Maybe it's all the 2s?
Video Games
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy -
When this was announced, I was a little skeptical at only being able to play
Star-Lord but now I see why they did it that way. The more of a fan you are of
the comic Guardians, the more you'll enjoy this game! The narrative is great
and they really captured the team dynamics. Plus, there's some really rad
costumes you can unlock. I'll probably never play it again after finishing it
but I don't think they could have given me a much better Guardians game.
Streaming Series
Lost in Space (S3, Netflix)
Space Family Robinson is back for their final season and boy am I going to
miss these characters. I've pretty much loved everything about this from the
start: exploring the unknown, alien worlds, the character interactions, a
mystery that actually pays off. The show has been strong enough that they
could have done without the name recognition but I guess people are more
likely to watch a reboot than Original SciFi Show #32.
Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story (Netflix)
While the original Tiger King was entertaining like a soap opera this more a
crime doc about a human piece of trash. Thankfully, it's not so much of him
personally but people that he victimized. My local Ren Faire popped up for
maybe a minute so that was something. I'm pretty sure I saw Doc in person
there years ago without knowing who he was. Even if you're into the whole
Tiger King thing, you could probably skip this.
This was so good! I think it's only behind WandaVision for my favorite Marvel show. I can't wait to see more of Kate Bishop in the MCU. I do have one huge question about the ending but I'm sure that will get answered in the future. If you liked the show, hit the link and grab the comic it was based on.
Just Beyond (Disney+)
I've been watching this off and on since October and really liked it. It's
like an older tween cousin of Goosebumps which makes sense since they're based
on graphic novels by R.L. Stine. While it's aimed at the younger crowd, most
of the time I never felt like I was watching a kiddie show.
