My Favorite Albums of 2020: Pt. 2 [PLACEHOLDER]

(PLACEHOLDER)
12/21/20


DISCLAIMER: I'm sorry I haven't been posting on the blog at all recently. Sadly to say, I think our first official post in January will mark the indefinite hiatus of the blog. I won't go out with a bang, but I'll go more in detail of what I'm about to describe. Right now, the blog is hard to do because of other, more important RCS work, and my music under the DOOF name (namely my EP dropping on December 30th). I love writing, but what I'm doing now is too frequent, and with any larger spacing between posts I know that I'll lose all motivation and interest to continue to write. I may write some impulse blogs, reviews, and discussion until the blog eventually comes back, which will likely be at least until next summer when I might have more free-time on my hands. Thanks for your co-operation recently with it being so many days since the last post and all. I'm making this placeholder because I will likely complete this essay in early-mid January. I'll complete a Fanboy Roundup set for release tomorrow perhaps a little sooner, and I'm doing a big review of the year of 2020 as the last official post. Again, the blog may come back, but I will keep doing reaction and discussion livestreams that are far more off-the-cuff on the "@verysmurt" Instagram account. Listen to my EP when it's out, and stay groovy bitches.

Xbox Series: Part One - The Series S Announcement

  Discussing the Xbox Series S Announcement 9/8/20 DISCLAIMER: I know many of you who keep up-to-date on my @randomcrazystudios Instagram account were expecting more reviews, but I had to discuss this. It caught me off-guard, and it's looking like I'll finish the August reviews by the end of September... yikes. Prior to the rumors about the Xbox Series S, fans had already known about the company's big ninth-gen console: the Series X. It was revealed in June of 2019 as "Project Scarlett", which, granted, is a much better name. Though this year has brought with it new rumors of a smaller all-digital version of the bigger console. This was known as "Project Lockhart" alongside the older name, but was later found to probably be the "Series S". Since then, rumors have been wild and sporadic, but this global reveal trailer from Xbox themselves proves that we had basically predicted everything. Of course there are some slight tweaks to what we thought

Pikmin 3 Deluxe: Announcement Discussion

What Does a Pikmin 3 Port Mean for Nintendo? 8/7/20 DISCLAIMER: This essay was written on August 5th right after my viewing of the “Pikmin 3 Deluxe” trailer. These were my raw, early thoughts on the game. If these change drastically, or more important news comes out about the game, I’ll post a redux discussion. The “August 7th” in the title is technically just the publishing date, but it’s usually the writing and editing day as well. Also, these are my thoughts, but out of boredom I’ve edited this essay a lot more extensively than I normally would. I would do this for every essay if I gave myself more time to put quality over quantity, but that’s a discussion for another day. So, it appears that Nintendo’s holiday title this year will be a port. Perhaps not “Pikmin 3 Deluxe”, but if they had any true new video games ready for us, they would already have been announced. “Paper Mario: The Origami King” seems to have set a COVID standard of around two months between reveal and release, wi

Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (Review)

Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (Review)   11/1/20 DISCLAIMER: This review will not contain any major spoilers for "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm" past two paragraphs in. The rest of the review does not include major spoilers, but does encapsulate how things went without going into a lot of detail. The movie does not contain any major direct spoilers that aren't given away within the first thirty minutes (mainly just the general plot). It's not completely radical to assume you've heard of Sacha Baron Cohen's first "Borat" movie from 2006. It was a wild roller-coaster of controversy and got itself banned in two countries. The movie is a comedy and mockumentary that follows Borat Sagdiyev; a Kazakh reporter making a documentary studying what makes America so "great". Eventually, he discovers Pamela Anderson and aims to make her his wife; offending every ethnicity, religion, sex, gender, and country along the way. The movie is something of a masterpie
