Tom Cruise returns in “Oblivion”
Tom Cruise is back in his latest movie “Oblivion”. Directed by Joseph Kaczynski, who also directed “Tron Legacy”, the movie is a big sci-fi adventure with Morgan Freeman wearing steampunk goggles. Tom Cruise plays a maintenance worker who comes back to Earth from a moon revolving around Saturn and meets a band of human resistance. The movie has a similar aesthetic to “Tron Legacy”, with the same electronic music score.
Review of “Poppo E” game
“Poppo E” is a puzzle game available on Steam for PCs and Macs. The game was informed by the creative director’s experience growing up with an alcoholic father. In the game, you play a child whose best friend is a monster addicted to poisonous frogs. When the monster eats them, he becomes murderous. The game is emotionally satisfying and moving, and if you like puzzle games with a bit of emotional heft, “Poppo E” is a great game to play.
Ghostface Killah’s new album “12 Reasons to Die”
Ghostface Killah’s new album “12 Reasons to Die” is his 349th studio album. The album was composed by Adrian Young and recorded live with his band. The album has a soulful 70s feel in its production and is a vivid, concept album-y kind of journey in grand Ghostface Killah style. It is a must-listen for fans of Ghostface Killah’s music.
