Taking a Look at my Desktop Backgrounds

Doing Something a bit Different

Today I felt like talking about my desktop backgrounds and my thought process behind how and why I choose the ones I have. This article is a good way to get to know me some more and an opportunity for folks to share some cool images with each other. This isn’t really meant to be in-depth or anything, just for fun. I know this is something fairly atypical of me but I hope you’ll indulge me a bit and enjoy 🙂 

October Review Fest – Event Wrap-up

That’s All Folks!

Thank you to everybody who participated in this year’s Halloween event. I did more than I have ever done for an event like this; it ran the whole month! In case you missed any or all of the event, here is a list of each week and the respective reviews:

Week 1 – Lika Week

• Coraline – Say Hello to Your Other Mother
• Paranorman – Norman isn’t Normal but That’s OK

Week 2 – Fun & Gams Week

• The Sexy Brutale – Not What it Sounds Like
• Mysterium – Is This Your Card?
• Outlast – A Found Footage Game you Can Play

Week 3 – Higurashi Week

• Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (Season 1) – Wait, What’s Going on?
• Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai (Season 2) – Some Much Deserved Answers
• Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei (Season 3) – The Perfect End?

Week 4 – Obscure Week

• Pet Shop of Horrors – Selling Hopes & Dreams?
• Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne – The Times are Always Changing
• Le Portrait de Petite Cossette – Beauty Effects us in Mysterious Ways

We had a lot more articles published beyond this from both myself and contributors as well. Here are a few other articles that you may want to check out for the Halloween season from my contributors:

• ‘Happy Death Day’ Film Review
• Music Review: Gojira – The Way of All Flesh (2008)
• Music Review: Thy Art is Murder – This Hole is not Deep Enough for the Twelve of You/Infinite Death (Demo and EP review)
• ‘Blade Runner 2049’ Film Review
• ‘Gerald’s Game’ Film Review
• Music Review: Witchgrinder – Haunted (2015) (Random Music review)

October Review Fest ended up being a little more taxing than I had initially expected, but that was largely due to real life interference. I would love to do more events like this in the future. I hope you’ll be around for them! That does it for this Halloween. Until next year!

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei (Season 3) – The Perfect End?

Mixed Feelings

First impressions for Rei are not good. The first episode is a forced fanservice episode that doubles as a pool episode. It’s meant to be funny, and to some degree it is, but that’s not why you’re here. Rei is meant to tie up the few loose ends that Kai had in its conclusion. So does it deliver on that front? Let’s dive in and find out!

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai (Season 2) – Some Much Deserved Answers

Fight for a Perfect World

If you haven’t read my review of season one, you should take a moment to do that. I’m going to assume you have some knowledge of season one in this review, so there will be some spoilers in this post. Kai is the follow up to Higurashi’s first season that delivers some much needed answers.
