I'M BAACKK!!
as many of you can see, after a while of going AWOL on everyone. What happened to me?Where have I been? Did I fall from the face of the earth?! So many questions!!
To be honest, for a while I had lost the motivation (and at times the will) to even get out of bed. It's been a long time since I've battled depression and it takes a toll on me at various times.
So, I used this time to just chill, and recuperate in order to have a better outlook on life.
So, instead of giving you all a sad sob story, I will spare you guys the details and let's get going to talk about what I love the most...GEEK STUFF/CULTURE/FANDOMS, etc.
1.) Our Spidey sense are tingling!!
For those unaware I have a FB account, and I do subscribe to various outlets of information for Geeks and all about Geek interests, any ways, I'm sure by now, everyone and their mothers' know that Sony has already chosen (officially) a new actor to play Peter Parker/Spider-man. And the lucky lucky winner is Tom Holland!! (for those curious, Marvel.com has an in depth detail announcement, so head over there!) I do sincerely wish Sony/Marvel the best in their new Spider-Man collaboration and will be waiting to go see it!!
2.) Attention ALL game board/Table Top Geeks!!
For those not aware yet, Brotherwise Games, LLC., have finally released their BOSS MONSTER 2 (and yes, it's in your local stores, online, etc). I'm super excited for this, since the Hubby and I own Boss Monster (not including expansion) but we love it! So, of course, we can't wait to acquire our copy of Boss Monster 2 to see the new Bosses, and rest of the new (and improved, I hope) goodies that are in this new version of the game).
3.) Netflix News: The Guild is streaming!
And I'm proud to say that I have gotten my husband hooked on it! Felicia Day is my WCW forever! (due to her absolute overall awesomeness!). So, YAAY! time to binge watch, (although, when we started watching, it said they had all 4 seasons, but when we finished watching first season, it only showed THAT one season, so I do hope it is a Netflix glitch.
4.) Game of Thrones season 5
Ok, so I promise I will not make this a rant, but I have decided that after, following Game of Thrones on HBO for 4 seasons, and reading the various reviews of season 5, I very early on, decided that I would no longer be watching it, just to save my own sanity.
Ok, here's the deal, I've read the books (like sooo many others) and yes, I will admit that I cringed at times when I read the dramatic changes the show made from the books. I'm not going to be here to say how I think the book is better or superior to the show. For those who haven't read the books, but followed the show from the beginning, to them, the changes might not have seen so, cringe-worthy, but lets be honest, for book readers, some of those were. So, I've decided that, since HBO is going one direction and the books another, I prefer to patiently wait (like the rest of the book nerds) for the master to publish his masterpiece and enjoy A Song of Ice and Fire as the author intended it to be.
I'm not going into detail, nor am I going to blame HBO (for understandable reasons, I get why they are doing what they are doing, and in some weird way, I've managed to rationalize it as, their interpretation of Martin's work), nor will I blame George R.R. Martin for taking his time (hey, Michelangelo, didn't paint The Sistine Chapel in a day, right?!) in writing his own masterpiece they way he envisioned.
So, due to that, I unfortunately, will not comment (any further on) about future episodes, seasons (how ever many) of HBO's Game of Thrones.
Sowwy. (sorry)
Oh, and for those who did watch (and are still watching) I join the rest of the world by saying, I seriously don't think Jon Snow is dead. *wink, wink*
Til' next time, pretties!
