    Steel Storm Steel Legion Book 2

    51NWLGhRviL Steel Storm (Steel Legion Book 2)

    A routine sentry mission discovers a human colony where only bones remain, and the hostiles are nowhere to be found. Days later a fusion bomb devastates the defending forces on the desert planet Squire. Hordes of the insectoid Kadan flood the planet with the technology of the ancient Emflife. They advance to crush the human lines but stop just short of victory. Colonel Cole Clarke and his battalion of convicts must discover what the Kadan are really doing. Their untested armor is the only thing that can stand up to the Emflife tanks, and that’s if they’re lucky. They’re outgunned, outmatched, and stretched thin. If they fail, the alien invasion won’t stop until they’ve burned their way into the heart of human space. Terra. Sent on an impossible mission with no support, the 19th ACR strikes out alone.

    Another good book from Casey Calouette, it was pretty interesting to see two sides of the same battle, one from orbit in spaceships that are only just barely flying, and one from the ground where tanks are pounding away at each other. It’s been about three years since this book came out, the second in a series, and while I understand the author is busy with life, it would be great if he could write me some sequels. I do recognize that he has had several other books come out and has been dealing with recovering from cancer treatment, so I guess I’ll have to be happy with reading absolutely everything else this guy has written. I’m series, he’s among my favorite authors at this point, only two books in!

    Heads up, if you sign up for his email list on his website you’ll get a free book. You’ll also get a free copy of the book if you go to amazon.com and click “give me the free copy“. No idea if you need to be a Prime member or not for the amazon version of the free book.

    Borderlands The PreSequel

    91LfdoaX7QL. AC SL1500 722x1024 Borderlands: The Pre Sequel
    Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is a new role-playing shooter in the critically acclaimed Borderlands series. Play as four all-new character classes while carving a path of destructive mayhem across Pandora’s never-before-seen low-gravity moonscapes with all new moves, weapons, and vehicles!

    I give up on this game. I got about half way through and just lost all will to even load it up, kept it on the top of the “To Play” pile and just said “ugh” every time I saw it there. Perhaps it’s just more of the same from Borderlands 2, maybe it was the oxygen mechanic, maybe it was the setting, or maybe it was the characters. I loved ZER0 from the original sequel and there wasn’t really anyone that played the same in the Presequel.

    Also, god damn I hated that oxygen mechanic where I was always running around trying to find air. I don’t need that kind of anxiety in my space shooters!

    Stan & Ollie

    stan ollie postr 1 692x1024 Stan & Ollie

    The true story of Hollywood’s greatest comedy double act, Laurel and Hardy, is brought to the big screen for the first time. Starring Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly as the legendary movie icons, Stan & Ollie is the heart-warming story of what would become the pair’s triumphant farewell tour.

    With their golden era long behind them, the pair embark on a variety hall tour of Britain and Ireland. Despite the pressures of a hectic schedule, and with the support of their wives Lucille (Shirley Henderson) and Ida (Nina Arianda) – a formidable double act in their own right – the pair’s love of performing, as well as for each other, endures as they secure their place in the hearts of their adoring public.

    Books added to the Physical Collection

    As I strive to own every Star Trek book printed, a kind soul on the opposite side of the country found a treasure trove of Trek books and offered to send them from California to Florida, and a month later I finally got them all out to inventory the latest books to the collection:

    Two of these:2018 08 20 13.31.50b 300x169 Books added to the Physical Collection

    Resulted in one of these: 2018 09 12 21.35.33 300x169 Books added to the Physical Collection

    The books are in great condition and I’m eternally grateful they made their way to me.

    They Shall Not Grow Old

    onesheet 682x1024 They Shall Not Grow OldOn the centenary of the end of First World War, Academy Award-winner Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Rings trilogy) presents the World Premiere of an extraordinary new work showing the Great War as you have never seen it.

    This unique film brings into high definition the human face of the First World War as part of a special London Film Festival presentation alongside a live Q&A with director Peter Jackson hosted by Mark Kermode.

    Using state of the art technology to restore original archival footage which is more than a 100-years old, Jackson brings to life the people who can best tell this story: the men who were there. Driven by a personal interest in the First World War, Jackson set out to bring to life the day-to-day experience of its soldiers. After months immersed in the BBC and Imperial War Museums’ archives, narratives and strategies on how to tell this story began to emerge for Jackson. Using the voices of the men involved, the film explores the reality of war on the front line; their attitudes to the conflict; how they ate; slept and formed friendships, as well what their lives were like away from the trenches during their periods of downtime.

    Jackson and his team have used cutting edge techniques to make the images of a hundred years ago appear as if they were shot yesterday. The transformation from black and white footage to colourised footage can be seen throughout the film revealing never before seen details. Reaching into the mists of time, Jackson aims to give these men voices, investigate the hopes and fears of the veterans, the humility and humanity that represented a generation changed forever by a global war.

    The film can be seen in both 2D and 3D in selected cinemas. Check your local listing for full details.

    Co-commissioned by 14-18 NOW and Imperial War Museums in association with the BBC. Produced by WingNut Films and Executive Produced by House Productions. Special thanks to Matthew & Sian Westerman with additional support from The Taylor Family Foundation, The Moondance Foundation, Welsh Government, Scottish Government, British Council, Tim Bunting, Jacqueline & Richard Worswick and one anonymous donor.

    Next Gen

    th Next Gen

    When lonely Mai forms an unlikely bond with a top-secret robot, they embark on an intense, action-packed adventure to foil the plot of a vicious villain

    Next Gen turned out to be much more fun than I was expecting it to, afterall, Netflix is getting a reputation for having low quality content, but rumor has it they spent about $30 million on this movie, and every penny of it shows. It’s a familiar story in which a kid finds a mcguffin that she misuses for her own ends, then finds out that this mcguffin is more than she thought it was and uses to save the city/planet/galaxy. While it’s familiar, it’s also comforting with some spectacular visuals, an interesting soundtrack, and great VO work by very talented people.

    Check it out, it’s streaming on netflix now.

    Alien Vs Predator

    51sHNqlISQL. AC US218 Alien Vs. Predator

    During an archaeological expedition in Antarctica, a team of archaeologists and other scientists find themselves caught up in a battle between the two legends. Soon, the team realise that only one species can win.

    It took forever to a movie of this encounter and instead of having Space Marines, we had archaeologists And it’s set in a modern setting and not some hellish futurescape or far flung planet. I’m happy it got made, but it could have been so much more. Most of the appeal of the original Alien movies was that they were set in interesting places, and under the ice in an old temple is not an interesting place, it just felt boring and old.
