I was excited when the previews for the newest Lost in Space rendition were released. The series looked fun and exciting. However, once the series was released on Netflix this past April, I found myself struggling through the first few episodes before I finally just gave up. Here's a list of reasons why I still haven't finished Lost in Space.
The Loneliest Girl in the Universe – Lauren James – Romy Silvers is the only surviving crew-member of a spaceship traveling to a new planet, on a mission to establish a second home for humanity. Alone in space, she is the loneliest girl in the universe until she hears about a new ship which has launched from Earth with a single passenger on board. A boy called J.
Their only communication is via email and due to the distance between them, their messages take months to transmit. And yet Romy finds herself falling in love.
But what does Romy really know about J? And what do the mysterious messages which have started arriving from Earth really mean?
Sometimes, there’s something worse than being alone…
The premise behind the Red Rising series is very well thought out and immersive. There are a lot of things I dislike about this book but I honestly did enjoy it. Pierce Brown does a great job at creating this futuristic universe ruled by class separation.
I don't own very many movies, but the ones I do own are pretty special to me. I recently made a YouTube video of my movie haul, but I thought I'd post about them here too. So here is a list of my movies with my very short review of each one.
Armada starts out strong, creating an immersive alternate reality to our current present time, and then quickly loses its speed in an ocean of overwhelming battle scenes and gamer elitism. I was actually pretty excited to read Armada, especially because I enjoyed reading Ready Player One a few years ago. Armada stems from the same novel quality as Ready Player One in that they are centered around a video game driven world. However, there were more things about Armada that I disliked than things I liked.
Solo has been in theaters for less than 24 hours and I've already seen so much hate for it on Twitter and Facebook. It seems to be all the "casual" Star Wars fans who didn't enjoy it. From dedicated fans, though, I've been reading nothing but praise for the movie and hopes for a sequel. I really enjoyed the movie and thought it was a great addition to the Star Wars universe, and that it was a perfect second stand-alone movie next to Rogue One, which I loved.
