While maybe not as strong as The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett does manage to have a unique enough concept to stand on its own. Still, it does suffer from a weak overall story that’s overly dependent on flashbacks and Mando scenes.

Total War: The Great War
Expanding on our earlier proposal for a Victorian-era Total War, we would like to present the Total War game we’ve wanted to see for years: World War One.
Total War: Victoria (Empire 2)
There is so much potential to be an incredible total war game set in Victorian times, potentially redeeming Empire Total War’s previous faults. While scope may be the devil of implementation for this title, the payoff for achieving a balanced and scalable RTS during this rapidly evolving time would let us tap into some of the most interesting conflicts of the late colonial era.
Total War: Medieval 3
There have been lots of calls from the Total War community for a third Medieval title, considering how far technology has come a long way since Medieval 2 was released in 2006.
Total War: Pharaoh
Other Total War veterans may believe this would just be a rehash of Rome but older and boring – but I believe the potential for exploring this era is full of opportunities and new perspectives.
Troy – The Director’s Cut [REVIEW]
The Trojan Wars have been one of the most prolific stories through the ages. Despite ongoing debate whether or not this war really happened (our only real sources being Homer’s poems), there is no doubt it left its mark in history. As such this has been a favorite subject for Hollywood to exploit. There have been several adaptations of Homer’s work done in the past 20 years with mixed results. Perhaps the most well-known is 2004’s epic Troy, a movie that has largely been forgotten by the public despite the star power involved.
Best Movies of 2021
2021 has been a difficult transitional year when it comes to new movies as the ongoing COVID pandemic delayed production and theatrical releases. Despite the obstacles still being a major problem, stricter guidelines have allowed theaters to reopen more frequently. Here are the best films (that I’ve seen) in 2021.
Camp Cretaceous – Season 4 [REVIEW]
In many ways, this series is Jurassic Park’s counterpart to the Star Wars: Clone Wars TV series. This is a canon animated expansion of Jurassic world which means elements introduced in this series could have bigger implications in the films.
Rango [REVIEW]
It has been over a decade since the western-inspired animated film Rango was released. As such, we figured it was high time to dust this old lizard off to see how well it has held up.
Best TV of 2021
line, streaming TV has stepped up to the plate this past year to keep audiences entertained throughout the pandemic that still grips us. This is not a complete ranking, but merely a list of the shows (that I’ve seen) that are worth mentioning that came out last year.
