This was a few days ago but I waited till now to update cause I forgot lulw

My friend and I are at the part in Water 7 right before the twist with Lucci and Co is revealed. I really wanted to get to that part before I left but sadly we didn't get the chance.

He liked the battle between Usopp and Luffy but asked "where was Usopp's strength before." Overall it was a good time.

Thought that Luffy was in the right in the argument with Usopp and actually got mad at Sanji for kicking Luffy (both that and trying to stop Chopper for giving Usopp medical aid lost points for him rip).

He was not a fan of the plot where Water 7 turns in the Straw Hats after they get fingered for Icebergs attempted assassination. Says that he doesn't want Paulie to join because of it and said he would be on the bottom if he does.

Weirdly he didn't have a big opinion on Franky when he first showed his cyborg stuff, though I imagine that will change as it goes on.

And he was a big fan of the raid on the Franky house and asked if this was one of the more iconic scenes.

I'm probably going over again this Friday and I'm looking forward to the events once the Gally-La twist is revealed.

Oh and about Paulie, I decided to be devilish and started to plant ideas of how he would work as a potential crew member. Lookin forward to his opinion on Franky vs Paulie later.

Rewatching Pirates of the Carribean. Becket is such a good villain.
Fuck yeah, he was so iconic! His actor really delivered on that role so well and that scene of him walking down the ship as it was being blown up was pure cinematic history and art! Absolutely legendary scene!



POTC even to the 5th film had incredible cinematography, music, acting, action and such, it was part of the reason I grew to love pirates so much! (Also a certain other series obviously!)

I could write essays on what makes POTC so amazing and the new reboot is not gonna live up to the glory of the original, I really doubt it. I'm willing to give it a chance but aside from Disney trying to get Johnny back for it after all, I was gonna boycott especially because of what they did to him ironically lol. I'm even boycotting Aquaman 2 because of Amber Turd, despite how desperately I want to see it as a water fetishist fantatic especially!

That scene with Beckett, he truly went out like a boss, king and legend. Absolute class and badassery. Something you hear about in legends for real, a story to entice many future generations centuries later.

POTC is such an incredible series, absolutely pure art and a masterpiece.

Don't even get me started on how fucking amazing Barbossa is and how much Geoffrey Rush addded to him too! Plus the music and his writing by the 5th film and his full character arc...

POTC is one of those franchises that genuinely makes me feel glad and lucky to be alive and experience it tbh. To think it started because of a fucking THEME PARK RIDE of all things too?! I'm even sat here with the official film guide to POTC films next to me too!

I also strongly recommend Jungle Cruise, a WAY better film than I expected and with an AMAZING cover of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters that really makes parts of the film and some tragic storylines in it all the more poignant and powerful too! Its very POTC in vibe too and its not quite a masterpiece as POTC, its still a very good film imo! A worthy successor the POTC series that is also based on a theme park ride by Disney too, funnily enough!







Without saying too much, Jungle Cruise parallels with the new Thor Love and Thunder film in a certain way quite heavily and both make men and fathers look really positive in their own ways too! Very tragic and admirable writing!

Personally if you plan on getting it for 1 game? Don’t bother

I got it for smash+got a few other Mario games and it still is collecting dust
