I actually skipped this article for the month of July for reasons I’ll get into momentarily, and I assumed no one really batted an eye. And then I saw this! So there you have it! You can all blame/thank Blissed Off for the return of my 2022 movie log, where I recount my quest to get through 300 movies by December 31st of this year. … Continue reading Stew’s August 2022 Movie Log
So I saw 200+ movies in 2021. Now what? That was it. That was the goal. Watch 200 or more individual movies from January 1st to December 31st. I got through 223 all told. Am I just supposed to rest on this laurel? I actually had no idea if I would try to meet any quota for 2022. I love movies, but maybe I’d just … Continue reading 2022 Movie Log: January
I did it. Two-hundred movies across the year 2021. Individually, 215 movies and about 220 total viewings when you factor in the flicks I saw twice, one of which was Jason X because EVERYONE should watch Jason X twice a year. He just wanted his machete back. I should have a better goal for 2022, but…I really like movies, man. Like I should… write 12,000 … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: December 2021 Part 2
Hey, my movie diary screenshot fits in one image for the first half of this month! I hit my 200th movie for the year, and suddenly watching movies started feeling just a LITTLE BIT less imperative. I have found my laurels; I have rested on them. The weird thing is… I haven’t done much else this month, either, so this is going to be a … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: December 2021
After seeing how close I had come by October, I knew that I’d definitely get 200 movies in by the end of 2021 unless something truly went awry. So then came the next thought… could I do it by the end of November? And that led me on a film spree where I averaged about a movie per day, so let’s get the heck into … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: November 2021 Part 2
This is… very quickly becoming my “Here’s my recent movie reviews” post, and I am okay with that. When I started Entertainment Rex this year, the principle was that I’d discuss everything I watched, played, read, and otherwise enjoyed in the last half of a month. But I have been on an absolute movie TEAR of late, and it’s making it hard to do much … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: November 2021
One hundred and sixty nine. That’s how many movies I’m up to for 2021. That puts me needing 31 more between November and December to hit that lofty goal of 200 that I set for myself. Well… I say it’s lofty, but then other folks tell me they are shooting for 300 or 400 or whatever. But hey! You know, it’s… actually, I have no … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: October 2021 Part 2
Guys, my house is a wreck. We have started decorating for Halloween and getting everything spookified, but the interior of the house constantly looks like a bomb went off. We are not an organized people. This isn’t even related to the decorations; it’s just the constant state of our home! We always have these designs on “Oh, we’ll do a little cleaning each weekend, and … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: October 2021
I feel like this will be a very short discussion this portion of the month, as I could probably just plug in “I played Fallout 4, like, A LOT” and be done with it. Why did I not play more of that game way back when I bought it? MOVIES After a movie-heavy start to the month, I really tapered off in the back half … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: September 2021, part 2
Last month, I lamented that I had only seen ten movies in the span of an entire month. I went on a September TEAR to make up for that! So let’s get straight into the first half of September’s recommendations. MOVIES Seventeen days, twelve movies. That’s more like it. I kind of blew up in the last few days of August, man. And those ratings … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: September 2021
Wait, don’t I usually do two of these in a month? I do; this is usually split up into first half / back half so it doesn’t get too wordy. But August was a pretty slow month in many regards, so by the time mid-August appeared and I had done very little, I figured I’d just package the whole thing together for the end of … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: August 2021
This one’s going to be quick, so bear with me. I’m SUPPOSED to be packing for Cancun right now. By the time you read this, I’ll at least be in the air. It’s hard to believe SWO Productions is already coming up on ten months’ of existence! Ten months so far of articles and podcasts and just general futzing around. Wow. Will I do something … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: July part 2
I’m wrestling with whether or not to get PlayStation Now. I feel like… I’m already paying for PS Plus, which is its own $60/month thing. Do I really need Now? It looks like a bulk of the games on Now end up becoming Plus giveaways as it is. But then… Fallout New Vegas is on Now, and I really kind of want to replay that. … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: July 2021
My wife wants us to paint our bathroom. I sometimes worry that she has forgotten who she married. There is nothing in the world I would rather do than nothing. Every so often she has grand designs on some project or another. She’ll ask “Do you want to [do a thing I don’t want to do] today?” as if she doesn’t know the answer. (The … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: June 2021 part 2
I went to the movies for the first time since February 2020 today! God, I have really missed that. Obviously in the COVID era, I have developed quite the affinity for watching movies at home, but I have always adored the cinema. Watching movies at home is fine, if a bit distracting. Watching them in the movie theater always feels more like an experience. The … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: June 2021
