6 Thoughts on Thunderbolts* (Review)

The second of three Marvel movies hit the big screen this past weekend and I was right there opening night, like the good old days! I was very excited for Thunderbolts* and I’m very happy to say that it mostly lived up to my expectations. Part of me wanted more from the movie, but only in the sense that it was already good and I just wanted more of it to enjoy.

Movie Rating: 8/10 – Very Good

I will admit that Thunderbolts* was not the rip-roaring good time I was hoping for, and that’s OK. This was a darker, more somber movie, while still having bits of fun and great action. It’s not the second coming of the Avengers — despite the title/marketing change. I still had fun with this one, and I bet it’s going to grow on me over time. I really want to go back and see it in the theaters for a second time.

Join me after the jump for my full thoughts/review of Thunderbolts*. Expect FULL SPOILERS for the whole movie, so read at your own peril. And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below.

How About a Ghost of Yōtei Story Trailer?

Ghost of Yōtei is a sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, an excellent game, and it’s coming out later this year. I’m excited. You should be excited. Should be a great game! And it’s a random Monday at the end of April, so how about a new trailer that shows off a bit of the story? Seems like a good use of all of our time.

Looks good to me. I don’t even need to see anything else about this game. I’m getting it. Maybe Day One, maybe not. Depends on when Grand Theft Auto VI comes out. Everything depends on when GTA6 comes out. But Ghost of Yōtei comes out on Oct. 2. So we’ll see! Though how I’ll be able to go from this to getting Assassin’s Creed: Shadows on sale next year should be tough.

Speaking of games, I’ve just bought and downloaded Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 this morning. I’ve finished Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and didn’t know what to move on to next, and then the internet started gushing about this Expedition 33 game. I know very little about it, haven’t seen a trailer, so I’m mostly going in blind. I’ll let you know how it goes at the end of the week.
