I wrote a few more thoughts over yonder about this film and all the others I watched in January (as I do every month)

I love that there's no big bad alien/robot trying to destroy or take over the world or anything like that
It's really just a story about politics and family
My hot (lukewarm?) take is that Civil War is a top three MCU film
I re-watched a bunch last month and it's still one of my favourites

Early in #RedDeadRedemption, John Marston tells Bonnie about his parents and childhood.
But how historically accurate is his backstory, really?

Last year, I made a video stating that my opinion on The Polar Express is correct and everybody who disagrees is wrong.
This year, I have a confession to make: I may have been wrong.

I made the Blue Prince video. It took me 6 months. It's here.

Yes, I know I already made a nine-hour video breaking down the historical connections of Red Dead Redemption 2... but I'm not done yet.
Let's take a look at the real history of Red Dead Redemption.
I found a football pitch in Baby Steps.
I then decided to make an entire video about how it's the best sports game I've played in years. No, seriously!
Hope you enjoy it. Jokey framing aside (or not) I really like how this one came out. If you like it, sharing really helps me out. Cheers!
Happy Halloween. I made a video about how I'm Afraid of Death

21 years of GTA: San Andreas!
β¦ and GTA Advance
β¦ and 25 years of Midnight Club and Smuggler's Run
β¦ and 15 years of Undead Nightmare
β¦ and 7 years of Red Dead Redemption 2
(Rockstar really seem to like 26 October for some reasonβ¦)
While researching this video, I was struck by D'Angelo's calmness and composureβalways taking time to thoughtfully consider his words
It's no wonder, then, that his music was as beautifully considered, too

"Unshaken" is such a beautiful, thoughtful trackβand not just in the context of the game
Its slow build is haunting, and D'Angelo's deep vocals will forever be etched in my memory

What a crushing loss for the entire music industry
YouTube comments: "Unsubbed", and reply "Fair enough, though I'm curious to know why?"
Tried to find out their reasoning but got no response
(Hint: it's probably because I mentioned Gaza)
Latest video is having its intended effect

Yes, the King of Thieves may have won, the world might have been plunged into darkness, death, and destruction, and I may be the only hope to save the world from further chaos and tyranny.
But first, Iβm going to catch a really big fish.
Said it a bunch and I'll say it againβthat Thomas isn't like Folding Ideas big is a true failing of the platform. Super compelling concept realised brilliantly here. Get it watched, you won't regret it.

After co-founding Atari & starting Chuck E Cheese, Nolan Bushnell made uWink. The idea relied on casual touchscreen games and was an expensive failure. I love uWink now & had to tell its story since no one else has π

Advice for creatives: print and bind your writing work!
Having spent months (or, technically, years) working on my video about Red Dead Redemption 2's historical accuracy, it's so nice to actually hold the script in my hands.
