YouTube Video In this video above will hear/watch Jason G's spoiler review.  Mine is written below, including the box office. It started what seemed like a 90s-2000s superhero movie—incredible action scenes, with really cool special FX just for the heck of it. Something like 2003's Underworld with Kate Beckinsale comes to mind—style over substance. I wasn’t crazy about this. I’ve said this in my other Venom reviews for parts 1 and 2, which date back to 2018; I don’t know if it’s Tom Hardy’s accent because he is playing Venom and Eddie Brock, but I still can’t fully understand what he’s saying at times, especially when he's playing Venom. It's better in this 3rd chapter but not perfect. Interesting actors to see in this movie were Chiwetel Ejiofor and Rhys Ifans. Both were previously in Marvel movies, where they played different characters.  Rhys Ifans played the Lizard in Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man, and Chiwetel Ejiofor was Baron Mordo in Doctor Strange.  Funny en...

YouTube Video Written script from the video. Steven Bartlett recently interviewed Jimmy Donaldson, AKA Mr. Beast' on his podcast 'Diary of a CEO.' I've never watched a Mr. Beast video on YouTube, but I recently finished season 1 of Beast Games on Amazon Prime and thoroughly enjoyed it.   In the interview, Mr. Bartlett asks Jimmy questions that make him reflect on his life. Jimmy says multiple times that he felt like an outcast in his younger years(ages 11-13) because he wanted to be a YouTuber, and nobody around him seemed to be into doing the same. He eventually met people who shared that same interest, propelling him to go even further down his path of being a successful content creator. I did some introspection on how this applies to my life. I'm so grateful to have dance/party friends who like the same music(dancehall reggae) and dances I do. I have known some of these people for nearly 15+ years, and they have amplified this interest for me. I often tell a few ...

  I use the DJay Pro app for all my mixtapes. In the app, there is a feature called 'Looper Packs' where the Djay Pro software will use the sounds in these packs to line up the bpm(beats per minute) and play alongside whichever song the user plays. I got a kick out of these as it allows one to make remixes on the fly. This is where the 'Looper Packs' option is located on the DJay Pro app I've done it a few times in the past. You can listen to an example in my August 2024 Dancehall Mixtape( click here for that )at the 24-minute mark, where I do so with Jquan's 'Chakka.'  YouTuber Justin Spiegel has an excellent channel where he talks tips, tricks, and observations about the Djay Pro app. In this particular video, he mentioned Remixlive; my ears perked up. I didn't know there were apps that specialized in these looper packs.  After more research, YouTuber DJ Dre discussed using Remixlive with Novation's Launchpad X MIDI grid controller. The app is ...

  I've been playing some violent games lately.  Wolfenstein 2 and The Callisto Protocol, you can find some of those recent streams here and here .  I decided to play something lighter and chose Warped Kart Racers on Apple Arcade. The Playstation 5 Dual Sense controller connected easily to my Mac Mini, and I was literally 'off to the races.'  The Xbox controller is preferred but won't connect via Bluetooth if the AA batteries have a mid-low charge. Never having played Warped Kart Racers, I had a fun time. For the next Apple Arcade game I stream, I have to figure out how to fit the play screen to fit OBS, as the screen is oversized during this session.  Learning OBS is very much a work in progress. Here's my Warped Kart Racers gameplay. YouTube version I've been streaming more often on Twitch.  My username is Paul_v_perez, check me out. Thanks for watching!

  On my latest Twitch stream ( Twitch user name is Paul_v_perez ) I play 'The Callisto Protocol' again(find out more about that game here ).   Here's a link to my first livestream of this game. I also give a small snippet of my incoming spoiler review of Captain America: Brave New World.  Finally I discuss WWE NXT's Vengeance Day and AEW Grand Slam Australia.  Two pro wrestling events which took place Saturday, February 15th. Thoughts, comments do so below. YouTube video

  Jason G. and myself went to see Captain America: Brave New World this past Thursday.  Here's our out-of-the-theater thoughts, spoiler free.   Spoiler review is coming soon.

  I've been working on this for a long time.  But I have been lazy most of the time and not completed the work. I'm learning how to produce future action-figure stories throughout this process.  It's similar to making a movie(I think)—first the script, then the storyboard.  Shoot the figures in the sets.  Following the script and storyboard, the number of photographs is determined. Hire the voice actors on Fiverr.  Edit everything together.  I use Artlist for the sound effects and background music. Canva for some extra picture elements. Another process I used was this comic book filter above the photographs as I drew in character expressions. I didn't just want to see the same action figure face in all the shots.  Finally, Kling AI's image to video(a recent addition to the process)to animate the pictures a little. This is part 1, and I plan to get part 2 out this year.  As I said, I'd love to do more of these.  It's my way of making movi...

  There was a period in 2011-2013 when I was heavily mobile gaming(playing games on my phone). I spent lots of time with games: Infinity Blade, Mega Mall Stories, Hotel Dash, Diner Dash, Super Mega Worm, Battleheart, Zombie Escape, Harbor Master, and Smash Cops. Around 2014, I fell out of playing IOS games because I would listen to video game podcasters/influencers say things like mobile gaming isn't real gaming. I considered myself a serious gamer, so I stopped. I listen to/watch/follow several video game content creators. Moreso for industry news. One of those outlets I listen to is the AEW Games podcast. I started listening to this podcast last year, 2024. Their enthusiasm for gaming gets me excited to play games. Wrestlers/hosts Evil Uno and Adam Cole also discuss all the mobile gaming they do, which inspired me to dig back into IOS gaming. On Touch Arcade.com's recommendation, I remember buying and playing Ridiculous Fishing back in 2013 and loving it.   I was pleased tha...

I enjoyed playing Wolfenstein The New Order and Wolfenstein The Old Blood, so playing this is a no-brainer.  Steaming is something I want to do more of, but using an Elgato Stream Deck, and OBS software, seemed super difficult to me.   I followed YouTuber Midnight Man's instructions and viola!  I didn't get everything working right, but for a first time, it came out well.  Using a Valve SteamDeck no less.   Check out the Youtube video below. More to come! 1st Gameplay Session Gameplay from December 2024..the volume was very low on this one..sorry. Gameplay from February 2025
