- These are all the books I read and the Movies and TV shows I watched in August. Oh, and I spent an unholy amount of time playing World of Warcraft: The War Within this month-tbh, I spent a lot of time on the pre-expansion event, too.

Wow!! You watched two of my favorite movies of all time. I'm not sure if you've seen Alien 3, but I feel it is hugely underrated. I know I'm in the minority. It's more similar to Alien with the horror aspect. I finished Joyland from Stephen King. I finished listening to The Way Of Kings which I loved. I'm listening to the next book, Words Of Radiance. I'm finding this one kind of slow, but I'm only about 5 hours in. I watched The Wolfman last night. The one with Emily Blunt, Benicio Del Toro, and Anthony Hopkins. That's a fantastic werewolf movie. There's a Jack The Ripper reference in it that I thought was pretty cool. I'm not sure if many people would pick up on it. Love the videos. Sláinte 🥃
Severance is disturbingly good (= awaiting Season 2
I really want to see season 2
The bit where they are drinking in the boat is the best bit of Jaws! Robert Shaw's monologue of the USS Indianapolis shark attack is so good, and Charlie in Always Sunny does a great version of it about rats. Severance is amazing, Rings of Power is utter bottom gravy.
Did you watch Beetlejuice yet?
No, I haven’t seen the original and I personally have no interest in seeing the new one either.
Season two of Rings of Power is worse than season 1. It feels like it was written by a middleshooler. Great Value Gandalf, hobbits, and Galadriel being truly dumb while watching dwaves argue about sun holes. . . .
I have to politely disagree with you. While it’s far from perfect and there are a lot of things I don’t like about the show, I think there are some really compelling things too. And I’m mainly just thankful that I get to spend more time in Middle Earth through a visual medium such as tv or movies. I am also very much looking forward to The War of the Rohirrim which comes out later this year.
