My take on season 1 of Ironheart & season 2 of Dandadan

My review/thoughts on Disney+ Ironheart & Season 2 of Dandadan

Note to Parents: Ironheart is rated TV-14 here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13623126/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Cast & Crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13623126/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Number of episodes - 6

Runtime for each episode - around 40 minutes to 57 minutes

Note to Parents: Dandadan is rated TV-14 here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13623126/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Cast & Crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt30217403/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Number of episodes - 12

Runtime for each episode - Around 24 to 23 minutes

01:04 - Part 1 Ironheart

03:06 - What I like (Ironheart)

04:26 - What I didn’t like/Mixed/Not Sure (Ironheart)

05:08 - Overall (Ironheat)

07:32 - Part 2 Dandadan season 2

08:58 - What I like (Dandadan)

12:00 - What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Dandadan)

13:26 - Overall (Dandadan)

What I like (Ironheart)

I like how the show references the Iron Man 1 & Dr. Strange movie

Alden Ehrenreich does a good job playing Ezekiel Stance

What I didn’t like/Mixed/Not Sure (Ironheart)

Ironheart's story didn’t click with me that much

What I like (Dandadan)

The fight between Okarun and Evil Eye is awesome

Episode 6 (Kazoku ni narimashita) had an odd but amusing moment, while episode 8 (Ganbare Okarun), where they battle classical composers, was also bizarre and funny. 

The Kaiju fight near the end of season 2 was also good

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Dandadan)

The search for “ahem,” Okarun's other ball didn’t really pick up until near the end of episode 7 (When Okarun saw Ayase working at a maid cafe)

My take on the Frankenstein Movie

My review/thoughts on Netflix Frankenstein

Tag for this video: #briansolow #gamer55551 #moviereview #movie #netflixmovies #netflix #frankenstein 

Note to Parents: Frankenstein is rated R here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1312221/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Cast & Crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1312221/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Runtime for Frankenstein - 2 hours and 32 minutes

00:00 - Intro

02:42 - What I like

06:24 - What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

07:50 - Overall

What I like

Oscar Isaac does a great job playing Victor Frankenstein (along with Jacob Elordi playing The Creature.

The world that director Guillermo del Toro made looks fascinating

I like how the story is broken into 2 parts (Victor's side & The Creature's side) 

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

Although the film has a horror theme, I didn’t find the movie to be scary at all.

My take on season 1 of Paradise

My review/thoughts on season 1 of Hulu Paradise

Tag for this video:#briansolow #gamer55551 #tvshow #tvshowreview #hulu #paradise 

Note to Parents: Paradise is rated TV-MA here in the USA -  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27444205/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Cast & Crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27444205/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Number of episodes - 8

The runtime for each episode is around 48 to 59 minutes.

00:00 - Intro

02:42 - What I like

06:06 - What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

07:38 - Overall

What I like

I like the idea that it mixes sci-fi, post-apocalyptic & political thriller into one

The cast was good (especially James Marsden, who played Cal Bradford, aka The President) 

Episode 7 (The Day) is my favorite episode

The music is done well (especially the classic song “Another Day in Paradise”) 

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

Very mixed on episode 8, “The Man Who Kept the Secrets.”

What I like

BlazeBlue Entropy Effect X looks interesting

Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly is getting a remake

Kyouran Makaism looks interesting (coming from the Disgaea team)

Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse is something I might try out

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

I’m not sure how Inkonbini: One Store. Many Stores or Coffee Talk Tokyo

The Presentation itself was kinda lame (in my view)

Some games, I wonder (like Super Robot Wars Y), will come to the West

Not sure why they had to show a 27” Gaming Monitor with DualSense Charging Hook at this presentation (a social media/tweet post of its own YouTube video would have been a better choice)

00:00 - Intro

04:20 - Part 1 Pro

09:52 - Part 2 Cons

11:00 - Overall

Pro

Visually, it looks good (along with the music)

Gameplay feels like a combination of other games out there, like Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Odyssey (and other 3-D Mario games), Hulk Ultimate Destruction, Red Faction, and so on (in a good way)

Looks like it runs well at 60fps

It does improve on some of the stuff that was in Mario Odyssey

Cons

Camera control can be tricky at times (especially if you are digging through the level)

My take on Tron Ares & Season 1 of Hulu King of the Hill

My Review/Thoughts of Tron Ares & season 1 of Hulu King of the Hill

Tag for this video: #briansolow #gamer55551 #movie #moviereview #tvshow #tvshowreview #hulu #kingofthehill #tronares #tron 

Note to Parents: Tron Ares is rated PG-13 here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6604188/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Tron Ares cast & crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6604188/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Runtime for Tron Ares - 1 Hour & 59 Minutes

Note to Parents: Hulu King of the Hill is rated TV-14 here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118375/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ov_at_pl_pg

Hulu King of the Hill cast & crew - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118375/fullcredits/?ref_=ttpg_ov_ql_1

Hulu King of the Hill runtime - Around 22 to 27 minutes

Number of episodes of Hulu King of the Hill - 10

00:00 - Intro

01:14 - Part 1 Tron Ares

04:56 - What I like (Tron Ares)

09:10 - What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Tron Ares)

11:32 - Overall (Tron Ares)

14:52 - Part 2 Hulu King of The Hill

17:10 - What I like (King of the Hill)

21:54 - What I didn’t like/Mixed/Not Sure

24:54 - Overall (King of The Hill)

What I like (Tron Ares)

I like how Dillinger (From the first Tron movie) plays a more important role this time around.

Nice callback to the original Tron movie

The visuals are excellent, and the soundtrack, featuring Nine Inch Nails, is also good.

The story itself isn’t that bad.  

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure (Tron Ares)

I’m mixed on how they portray the grid invading our world

Although mentioned, I’m disappointed that characters like Sam Flynn, Quorra, and even Tron are not in this sequel

What I like (King of the Hill)

I like the idea of Hank & Peggy trying to deal with retirement

The idea of Bobby Hill running his own restaurant is interesting (not to mention his relationship with Connie)

Some funny moments (whether it's with Dale Gribble or some odd moment)

I like that we saw 2 of Hank Hill's brothers (Good Hank & Junicho)

What I didn’t like/Mixed/Not Sure

John Redcorn's future is uncertain.  

A little disappointed we didn’t see an episode of Hank getting Bill back into shape after what happened to him in the season 1 revival

Luanne & Lucky’s fate is also unknown (although I’m open to the idea of seeing their daughter grown up a bit like Good Hank)

Andor season 2

What I like 

I like that some of the characters from Rogue One made an appearance (like K-2SO and Orson Krennic)

Episode 8 (Who are you), 9 (Welcome to the Rebellion) & 10 (Make it Stop) are my favorites

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

I didn’t like that we didn’t see much of the fallout of Mon Mothma's family after her speech to the Senate.

I felt like they could have done one more season (aka season 3)

The Apothecary Diaries season 2

What I Like

Some funny moments (like Jinshi dressing up as a moon fairy or episode 9 when he and Maomao fall into a cave where she touches his “ahem” frog)

Interesting twist regarding Shisui being a server girl & a concubine 

What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure

Having to wait for season 3

What I like

Chronoscript: The Endless End looks very interesting 

Nioh 3 is definitely on my radar

Saros looks interesting

Code Vein 2 looks nice 

Crimson Desert looks good (since some of the folks did The Witcher series)  

Closing out the State of Play with finally showing some Wolverine gameplay

What I don’t like/Mixed/Not Sure

Celebrating God of War's 20th Anniversary with a DualSense Controller

It would have been nice to see some AA games from Sony in this State of Play
