The beer from franziskaner brewery I've already had their blood orange
Wheat Beer which was pretty nice now I've got the original if you're not familiar with this brewery. They've been around from the 1400s and
they specialize just in wheat beers, so
my experience so far is they really know what they're doing and hopefully this one just continues for that tradition
I've already talked about this labeling because it's pretty much the same as
Their blood orange one which I reviewed and it's got that cool v
It's just traditional. It's like really you just look at this and know okay. This is a German beer and
Nice cap, cap collectors alcohol-free written on there big alcohol-free here. You know what you're drinking
You know you're getting the right thing. You know you're getting an alcohol free wheat beer.
So first smells off this are pretty refined
It's not a real punch in your face, but I get some slight slight citrus notes
And I'm also getting a real wheaty smell
this is
Shaping up to be pretty nice.
I think this speaks for itself, this is a really good-looking beer you can see some like very
mild carbonization coming up there and
Nice hazy probably dark
dark, honey
Apricot or something between there and has a really nice milky head on top
This is looking very nice oh
This is a very nice beer, it's
Got that nice. You know obviously like wheat flavor
Touch of cloves and then a hint of citrus, but this is all very refined this is
You know Maissels Weiss. This is like that but much more refined much more sort of like a delicate beer
I really think these guys know what they're doing because I have two beers from them already and
Both have been like spot-on taste wise not not too much
But enough to sort of satisfy you when you're drinking, this is pretty cool
super smooth taste, the beer itself is probably on the lighter side and
But
Huge head on there. Just gives you that
Silky smooth feeling not oily just silky
This is my type of Beer. This is a beer you can drink on its own
It's got enough flavor to sort of stand off on its own
But it's not so like complex that I wouldn't have it with food. I would have this with food
I would have it probably with something a lot of cuisines most of the European cuisine and have it with
But I also like combining these wheat beers with Mexican lots of people think that's a bit strange
But I think Mexican goes really well with these wheat beers
That was the Wiess Bier from Franziskaner brewery

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers - S02E37 - Episode Review - Duration: 5:00.
Welcome to Ranger Reviews, a webseries where we look at episodes of the tv show, Power
Rangers and then discuss it!
Today, we're exploring the ninety seventh episode of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as
well as the thirty seventh episode of Season 2, titled "Forever Friends".
At the Youth Center, Kimberly is practicing gymnastics while Aisha watches like a pervert.
Kim mentions how the competition is going to be really tough, and Aisha's old friend
Shawna shows up, and she's a massive bitch to Kimberly, insinuating that she stole Aisha.
Zedd sees this, and he decides to use this to his advantage.
Shawna asks if she has a broken finger since she doesn't ever call.
Kim volunteers to go away, but Aisha wants Shawna and Kim to become friends.
In shop class, Tommy, Billy, Rocky, and Adam are struggling to put anything together, but
Bulk and Skull are creating jet packs.
Why?
They want to go jetting to catch up with the Power Rangers!
That one thing I definitely thought was wiped from canon!
They go to the park, and they fail miserably before jumping into a random pile of hay in
the middle of the park.
Aisha, Kim, and Shawna are eating together, and Aisha doesn't remember they met in the
1st grade, and Shawna is bitter AF over this.
Goldar appears, and Shawna says "that's the monster I saw on the news!" which is
a nice touch.
Aisha freaks out, trying to call the others, but to no avail, so she runs to shop class,
getting them.
Zedd is mad that they're not mad at Aisha for sucking at saving Kim, and he turns a
random saw into the new monster, Jaws of Destruction.
Kim and Shawna are in that one cave in Angel Grove, in a protected forcefield, and Shawna
wonders why Kim is being so nice to her.
They talk about how both of their parents are divorced, and they talk about how when
someone leaves, it feels like you've lost them forever.
This is some deep shit for Power Rangers.
In the Command Center, Aisha blames herself for Kim and Shawna getting kidnapped, and
Zordon basically tells her to suck it up.
Then, they find out about the Jaws of Destruction, and Tommy says he's going to go get Kim
and Shawna while the others handle the monster.
It's morphin' time!
Also, time to see jetting again!
They do so right over Bulk and Skull who again have a fit with their home made jet packs.
Red, Black, Blue, and Yellow appear in front of the Jaws of Destruction, and he sics putties
on them, turning into a decent putty fight that we saw most of 3 episodes ago in "Lights,
Camera, Action".
The amount of care this show lacked at times is astounding.
Tommy appears outside the cave, fighting the putties blocking the entrance, taking them
all out insanely quickly.
He runs in, finding Kim and Shawna, using Saba to release Shawna quickly, but Kim is
still trapped.
Tommy says "Alpha, teleport Shawna out of here", and Alpha says "right, Tommy".
DUDE, ALPHA, YOU CAN'T JUST USE HIS NAME LIKE THAT.
Luckily, Shawna doesn't even pretend to notice.
Zedd sends Goldar down to take care of Tommy, and Kim morphs after Shawna is gone.
They run out of the cave to find Goldar, and Kim leaves to help the others while Tommy
decides to show off against Goldar.
Why even bother?
They might as well just both leave at this point.
Back with the others, Kim comes flying in, saving Aisha from getting attacked by putties,
and she tells her what happened with Shawna.
The putties get decimated, and Zedd decides this is the perfect opportunity to make his
monster grow giant because god forbid we have any hand-to-hand combat against monsters this
season.
The Rangers call out their Thunderzords, forming the Thunder Megazord.
They fight the monster during a random sunset, and they almost immediately kill him with
the Thunder Saber.
Take that, stakes.
But we still have five minutes left of this episode?
Oh yeah, Tommy and Goldar fight to a stalemate, and Goldar leaves.
What a waste of my time.
In the Youth Center, Bulk and Skull show up all roughed up from their jet packs, and Billy
makes fun of them for being stupid.
Aisha walks in to see Kim getting ready to compete, and in a really, really nice touch,
Kim is wearing Tommy's old green jacket!
Aw, that's cute.
Kim and Shawna are about to compete, but Kim is up first in a performance that really shows
off that Amy Jo Johnson is an absolutely incredible gymnast.
She gets a great score of 9.8, and now Shawna is up, and we learn her last name is Hilton.
Turns out, her actress is also an awesome gymnast, too!
Where was this girl when we were replacing Trini?
She also gets a 9.8, leading to her and Kim getting a tie, and Aisha just grabs the trophy,
giving it to the two of them.
Damn girl, calm down.
The end.
This episode has peaks and valleys, so I guess it's a solid medium for me.
I love the little touches like Aisha's friend from her old high school showing up and being
mean to Kim, them bonding over divorce, and even Kim wearing Tommy's old jacket.
The stuff that struggles is honestly the Japanese footage parts because they're really not
sure how to work them into the stories better, or even what to use.
It's a shame they couldn't have just switched Ranger suits at this point so that this choppy
action didn't have to happen, but I completely understand why they did.
Will next time be better at marrying the two?
Until then, may the power protect you!

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review!(Greek)(english subtitles) - Duration: 14:03.
Hello and in today's video i will do the review of the xiaomi redmi note 4x before i continue
with the video I would appreciate to subscribe to my channel to get notified when i upload
new videos now lets begin first of all I will start with the phone's specifications the
screen is 5.5'' full hd 1080x1920 pixels the back camera is 13 megapixel and it can record
videos up to 1080p full HD there are the models of the 3/32 gb and the 4/64 gb the processor
is the snapdragon 625 and the battery is 4100 mAh when I got it it had android 6.0 and received
an update for android 7.0 now I will continue with the operating system.
Xiaomi has a custom android skin which is called MIUI and it has a lot of amazing features
like the effect when swiping between pages in the homescreen also it has themes a lot
of themes from different users who upload their themes and also from the same the company
also MIUI has a lot of updates(not android updates) miui updates if you have the stable
MIUI version you will get updates every 3 months because stable version is meant for
stability an speed but if you are like me and want a lot of updates and a lot of features
and you dont care about minor lags you can also install the developer version of MIUI
which is updated every friday (xiaomi calls it orange friday) but the two past weeks was
the chinese new year and there werent any updates now i will talk about performance.
the performance is great for the price I bought it at 150 euros in black friday online and
the performance is great.
Although the performance is not as googd as the redmi note 3 pro performance, I dont say
its slow but its not as fast but xiaomi putting slower processor achieved in making the battery
life even better now I will open a heavy game (asphalt 8) as you can see the game crashed
but thats not because of the phone its because developers make worse apps on android and
better on ios lets go and play it has some minor lags like all the phones but its not
a slow phone its great it has great performance 9 now as you can see it plays smoothly something
thats a bit dissapointing in MIUI is the ram managment it has 1.4gb free from 3gb ram but
i didnt wactch any effect by the ram managment but i know that this problem will be fixed
with miui updates now lets check the speaker,the volume level of the speaker is just like the
samsung galaxy s7 not very bad and not very loud I will paly no copyright sound because
I dont want to get any copyright strike.
The speaker is just good now I will show an antutu benchmark.
the antutu score with the new antutu app update is 77159 now I wont run again the benchmark
because it will take a lot of time to load Now I will talk about MIUI which is the software
that xiaomi focuses a lot and it has a lot
of features like the security app from where you can optimize your device check for viruses
it has battery saver here it shows the temperature of the battery and also the capacity of the
battery and the time left from here you can anallyze the battery status and optimize the
battery here its shows the apps that consume a lot of energy also you can improve the speed
lock apps it has a gaming mode which improves the performance when playing intensive games
and a lot of other features here is the tools folde the clock app I forgot the timer for
more than one thousand hours and mail app but I use the gmail app voice recorder fm
radio that works without earphones but if use it without earphones the signal is not
very good downloads compass an comments so if you encounter
any problems in miui you can report them or suggest a new feature an app that controls
devies but it is supported only on xiomi phones with an ir blasterqr code scanner calculator
screen recorder (my gameplays are recorded with this screen recorder) but to get the
screen recorder you have to be on miui 9 stable or miui developer 8 and above calendar weather
app with animations for example now its snowing and it shows snow and if you tilt the device
also the animation moves also a music app which is feature rich file explorer the google
folder the mi browser and also miui has a lot of features this is the app vault and
you can have up to 8 app shortcuts here you can note something and you can also edit this
is the snap it which is the leovo camera, I use it because from that app I can record
4k video the mi camera app has a lot of features like panorama timer sound manual mode beauty
mode night sjot scene and tilt shift now in video you can record time lapse and slow motion
also for time lapse you can set the speed up to 1800x times faster now in settings in
wifi there is something very useful for example when you are connected in a wifi you can tap
on it and the phone will generate a qr code to scan it and connect now if you connect
in my wifi network theres no proble it is slow anyway you can also add a mi account
to syncronize ypur data with mi cloud you can make dual apps like if you
have two facebook accounts it also
has a setting to update system apps rarely it has
app updates only miui forum sometimes some other useful features lie if a person disturbes
you by calling you all the time you can block them.I hope I covered Everything please subscribe
to my channel and press the bell to get notified for new videos I upload whenever an idea strikes
share it with your friends who are thinking to buy this phone

Vogmask Review | Are They Worth It? - Duration: 5:05.
Hey guys welcome back to my channel, I hope you're doing awesome
I am going to be talking about Vogmask today, and if you don't know what that is it is a mask that you wear
On your face, and I have a couple different ones a couple different sizes
And if you don't know what a Vogmask is it is just a mask you wear
And it helps protect your lungs from any airborne illnesses or pollutions, and I wear Vogmasks
Relatively often I do have a compromised immune system with my celiac disease and all the other chronic illnesses
I do have and I like to wear one just as a preventative measure I
Chose a Vogmask and I reached out to them
And they happily send me some Vogmasks to try so they sent me a little bit of everything
I got a dual valve organic Vogmask I got a regular Vogmask and I got some mediums
And I also got some in large just because I thought I was like a medium
And I kind of still do
But then I wanted to see how like a large like
compared and so I will show you guys what they look like on so you can kind of see I
am like a bigger taller person and a medium fits me fine a
Large also fits me so I might have a small face. I don't know but
Vogmask is just this mask and it has the
Valves right here intake and out take and then that little things so to put it on you
just put it on your face and put it around your ears and
This is a medium, and you can kind of see it pulling on my ears just a little bit
This is a medium, and it does come them under my chin, and it covers my nose pretty good
There's a piece right here that you can tighten the seal right there
I can wear a medium for like a small amount of time before it starts really irritating my ears
But I don't have a problem with the mediums. They fit my face. Just fine what you can
Do is just pull on these things and stretch them and that seemed to help because when I first got them
I was like okay
a medium is definitely not my size, but I do feel like medium really does have a tight bond with my face
This is a large Vogmask and it is a lot bigger on my face
So you just put it on
And I do feel like it's big. There's some spots like right here in the chin area it does seal
But like not as tight as I would like it to be it is more comfortable for me like to wear like out and about
Like I would wear a large more often. Just because if I was going to like Costco
I wear a large just because I can wear this one
It's more comfortable for long use like I'm just running into the grocery store real fast for a couple things
I'll put on a medium if I'm just running a small errand into the library
I'll wear a medium, and I only think I wear a medium for small
Short amount of time it's just because the ear thing I do wear the large like I said in longer
Spurts but I do believe Vogmask is worth it
They are certified and almost everything like I do wear these out, and I do get looks and stuff and people always ask me
Why am I wearing this and
Besides the fact that I have a compromised immune system
I could wear it for dust I would wear it around allergies if the
Pollution is really bad in the air. If there's a fire smoke any of that stuff
I know there was a lot of fires going on this past summer and all that I would definitely wear one then because I don't
Want any of that pollution in my lungs and making me even more sick Vogmasks come in three different sizes
I don't have a small to show but I come in small and that's like relatively for children
They have mediums like I said
look like this on me and
Then they have larges
Which look like this on me
So not too much of a difference. I'll put the medium inside of the large one and you can kind of see the size difference
So this is the medium, this is the large right here?
You can kind of see that there's more space right here, and as well. There's like a little bit on
The bottom and then of course the ear loop, and if you're thinking about getting a Vogmask or comparing it to all the other
Masks I haven't tried any other masks. This is the first mask I've worn and I don't have a problem with it
I actually really enjoy wearing Vogmasks. I think everyone is different everyone is gonna have their own opinion on things
I bet there's some people that have tried every mask and only go to a certain mask and I but there's only people that try
Vogmask and wont try another one
But I do recommend
These I will have their link to their website down in the description section if you have any questions on my personal take on Vogmask
leave them in the comment section
I would be happy to answer any questions you have they do come in a lot of different colors and patterns
So there's something for everyone even if you don't have a chronic illness
I think they are really really important
So I would love to hear your review if you've tried another different mask or if you've tried a Vogmask
I want to know what you guys thought I would have loved if you gave this video a big thumbs up
I would really appreciate it, and I like I said, I will have their link to their website down in the description section and
Thank you guys so much for watching. I will see you guys in my next video, but until then stay positive bye guys

Hong Kong budget review 2018 - Duration: 2:19.
For the 15th year in a row, the Hong Kong government has too much money.
The final figure is expected to be more than HK$120 billion – a record surplus.
That's at least seven times the original estimate.
And Hong Kong's fiscal reserves have exceeded a trillion dollars for the first time ever.
So what will Hong Kong's financial secretary Paul Chan do with all this extra cash?
He could put the funds toward infrastructure…
The surplus is equivalent to the cost of another express rail link
from Hong Kong to Guangzhou in mainland China.
Or the construction of over 9,000 nursing homes or more than three advanced hospitals
or more than three advanced hospitals in the city.
But there's pressure on Chan to give the money directly back to taxpayers in the form
in the form of cash rebates.
At least two major political parties support such a move…
Which would be similar to what Singapore's government said it would do for its citizens
in its budget earlier this month.
Chan has repeatedly hinted that's not going to happen.
Instead he's said he'd rather invest in Hong Kong's future
and addressing some serious social issues.
The city currently struggles to provide adequate services for its senior citizens.
On average they have to wait more than two years to get subsidised care or a place in
or a place in a nursing home.
And over the past five years, more than 5,000 elderly citizens have died each year before
they could receive such care.
By 2041, almost one in every three Hongkongers will be aged 65 or older.
Some political parties have proposed setting aside $30 billion to build
10 elderly nursing homes per year for the next 10 years
– and putting aside another 10 billion to improve community healthcare.
Affordable housing is also another major concern for Hongkongers.
The government has been urged to use part of its land revenues to offer interest-free loans
to help young or middle-class Hongkongers get onto the property ladder.
And will the government still put some of this extra money into future funds for rainy days?
All will be made clear when Chan unveils the 2018 budget on Wednesday.

Defender's Quest: Valley Of The Forgotten DX - Review - Duration: 5:55.
There are two things that a tower defence game usually doesn't have.
One is a good story.
And two is characters that you actually care about.
But 2012's Defender's Quest , now available on the PS4 and XBox One, tries to break this
habit.
At first glance, it looks like your typical tower defence game.
You place your units on the map, to hold back the waves of enemies that come at you, snaking
their way along predetermined paths.
If enough of them reach your boss unit, you die and lose the mission.
Each level is like a puzzle that you have to figure out how to most effectively defend.
Different units have different abilities.
You've got ice mages that can slow the enemies down.
You've got your healers to keep your own units safe.
All of these different characters need to work together, to handle whatever creatures
are thrown at them.
At the start of each map, you take a minute to work out a plan.
You check out what type of enemies are going to come from where.
Place your knights in positions where they can hack off the armour of any reinforced
bad guys.
Place healers in locations where they can reveal the dark units, which can only really
be hit once lit up by the ether flash technique.
Each unit takes up a certain amount of Psi, and then takes even more Psi to upgrade.
How you distribute this resource is crucial towards victory.
Eventually you create what you hope is a well oiled machine, that you can sit back and watch
as your master plan comes together.
You need to keep eye on things though, upgrading and tweaking the areas that seem to be struggling.
It's a fine line between success and failure and doesn't take long for things to go from
this.
To this...
But what drives you on to keep playing, to keep saying- "OK, one more mission"?
Well part of the incentive is to level up.
All of these different pieces of your army become like a family- they all have their
part to play.
You deploy the same characters each mission, with all of them levelling up and gaining
points towards their own skill trees.
You can buy armour and weapons for them (although armour does turn out to be kind of pointless-
units typically don't die much.
And don't worry- if they do, it's not permanent.
You can just redeploy them when you have enough Psi.)
The story takes place on the boundary between life and death.
With a plague killing and transforming people into undead creatures, it's up to our hero,
Azra (or whatever you want to name her) to fight back.
But she needs help and so meets up with and hires people to join the battle.
It's strange how attached you can become to these characters.
It's like you even start making your own little stories for them.
Recruited a new guy?
Well, he's gonna need to prove himself before he's considered one of the team.
You throw him in the deep end, at a key position to see if he can cut it.
I guess you become attached, because despite the fact it's you giving the orders, it's
really all of these different heroes that are doing all the work.
You rely on them to do a job and to win.
You end up making each of them unique, using their skill tree to create things like archers
that specialise in poisoning the enemy, or dragons that nom, nom, nom, nom, eat up enemies
with under ten percent health.
There's layers of strategy that you need to use to win.
At any point, you can take control of the speed of the game.
You can pause at anytime to adjust what's going on, or slow down or speed up time when
necessary.
To help you out, Azra's also got a set of magic abilities for when things get dicey.
The timing of these moves can be crucial for success, especially later on in the campaign
when things get particularly difficult.
But if you don't win, it's not a problem.
You've got options to help you out.
You can go back to replay earlier levels, perhaps at harder difficulties to gain some
extra XP.
Even failing still earns you slight rewards.
You're never entirely wasting your time.
But there is one problem- every team member gets same amount of XP, regardless of what
they did or even if they ever entered the field or not.
It would have been nice if the characters that the do most work, levelled up the most,
encouraging you to think a bit more about exactly who should go where.
It would make you have the choice of whether you want to rely on the strongest, or give
the weakest the chance to grow.
This guy levels up as much as this girl- but clearly one's doing all the work!
But hang on a sec, why is that the slugs are the fastest units in the game!
Slugs, little slimy slugs.
All of the different types of enemy need to be handled in different ways, but unfortunately,
they lack variety visually.
Often they're just a pallet change, so the game could have done with more enemy types.
No bats?
No spiders?
What kind of video game is this!?!
But what's Defender's Quest's biggest flaw?
It's performance.
Modern consoles should easily be powerful enough handle this...
305 MB game.
But too often things slow right down, and cause glitches and even crashes, usually when
a lot of stuff is going on on the screen.
Overall the presentation is a little lacking.
The sprites are all fine, but things like the game's journal have a lot of fun stuff
in them, but their layout's not exactly that appealing.
It's all very basic, making you less inclined to read it.
Which is a shame- there is some funny stuff here, adding some more depth to the characters.
It took me 7 seven and a half hours to complete the game, but that's just start.
New game plus lets you take your characters onto harder versions of missions, plus some
new ones too.
As well as new journal entries and even a whole new currency system to buy the best
weapons with.
And plenty of secrets to uncover.
It really is worth playing long after credits role.
Initially I struggled with things, but I'm not a veteran T.D. player, but I did soon
get better.
There's always a better tactic to try, different orders to give and training to be done.
Check it out.
Next review I'm NOT going to be doing Metal Gear Survive, partly because I don't want
to enter the Metal Gear universe without Kojima at the helm.
Plus it doesn't look that good.
So next time... it's time to head to ancient Egypt to play...
Immortal Redneck.
Thanks for watching.

Conlanging book review (The Art of Language Invention) - Duration: 6:32.
What's up guys today's video is my first ever book review.
And it's about a book called the art of language invention,
which is a linguistics book,
and I think it's gonna be really interesting to anyone who likes languages. Now, when you're reading this book
It doesn't feel like you're reading a linguistics textbook.
It feels like you're in a conversation with a comedian who also happens to be really knowledgeable about
languages because it's so stinking funny. It's easy to understand and it's also really informative at the same time
It's called the art of language invention by David Peterson.
And this book offers a really interesting perspective on linguistics because it was written by the guy who came up with the fictional
languages for a lot of movies and TV shows like Game of Thrones.
And the book is basically about the painstakingly detailed steps that he goes through in order to make his fictional languages
behave and feel like real
languages from the real world, and he beetles a bunch of things that conlangers can do to understand these principles in an easy to
follow way. I'm a linguistics major and I can attest that everything in this book is valid linguistics theory.
It's not just something that some nerdy conlanger came up out of his own brain.
He describes actual phenomena that is attested in real linguistics,
but he does so in such a way that really held my attention. The first time I read this book was before I started
studying linguistics at the university level, so I had no more knowledge than the average Joe.
But he explains some deep linguistic principles in a way that anyone can understand, and my favorite example of this was his chapter on allophones.
The distinction between
allophones and phonemes is a really abstract
relationship. If you've ever taken an intro to linguistics course you probably remember the week on allophones being this
nightmarish section where just everything was totally abstract and nothing made sense and you might remember your professor talking about how a
phoneme is a type of abstract sound that's never actually pronounced
so it's not technically really a sound at all. It's more of a
category of sounds that is in contrastive distribution with another category of sounds which is made up of allophones,
which are in complementary distribution
with one another, and the only way you can tell if two sounds are allophones is if they're in complementary distribution,
except for the case of the glottal fricative and the velar nasal which basically proves that everything I just told you is a lie.
So doesn't make any sense. I've actually taken this book to school and used it to explain allophones to beginning linguistics students
because David does such a good job of making the information
comprehensible. In the chapter about phonology
he compares phonemes to a guy named Tony. And like phonemes, Tony changes depending on his
environment. In most environments Tony is a human, but under the environment of a full moon Tony becomes a wolf.
But in all environments, he's still Tony. So we can say that the abstract
identity of Toni can manifest itself in two different ways: wolf Tony and human Tony.
Where wolf Tony exists only in the environment of a full moon, and human Tony exists elsewhere, in every other
environment, but importantly we'll never find an environment where Tony exists as a wolf and a human at the same time.
I don't want to spend too much time in this video talking about phonemes.
If you still don't understand just read the book. David does a much better job of explaining this than I do.
But it's enough to say that I've never taken a phonology class where they use werewolves to explain the difference between
Phonemes and allophones, even though this is the perfect metaphor, and this is also the perfect example of David's writing style.
He makes it fun and easy to understand the information in a way that college courses
just can't. Like I said, I read this book before I went back to school, and when I did arrive at the
university, I remember my first semester taking a linguistics 100 course,
and it was in a huge lecture hall with hundreds of other undergrad students who were all racking their brains
trying to figure out
what was going on with this linguistics stuff, and I was one of the only
students who actually understood everything that was going on. And I think a big part of it is because I was so well prepared
just from reading this book. So if you're at all interested in linguistics,
or if you think you might ever take a linguistics course someday,
I highly recommend the art of language invention by David Peterson.
I picked this up on Amazon for like ten bucks or something.
I know it's $9.99 on Kindle, and I found this also on eBay.
I think there's one on eBay right now for like $2.69 so if you hurry up and get that one,
then get really good deal. But you can go use the paperback for super cheap
And I highly recommend it. The only thing
I'm gonna warn against is the audible, or any audio version of the book because there's just so many
charts and graphs and stuff in here, a lot of pictures, a lot of scripts from other languages.
In fact there's a whole
chapter that's just about written scripts and orthography, so you're not going to get the full experience
if you get the audible book or any audiobook version.
But other than that disclaimer,
I cannot recommend this book enough, especially if you think you might ever have an interest in conlanging or
constructed languages in any capacity. When I started reading this book for the first time I had absolutely no interest in the conlanging
community. I just wanted to learn about the linguistic theory that was inside the book.
But after making it all the way through it kind of opened my eyes to the really
vibrant community, and all kinds of different conlangs that exist out there.
And it's really interesting. It got me a kinda hooked on the idea and even if you have no interest in conlanging,
but you're just interested in real world languages
There's still a wealth of information in this book because he tries to make his conlangs as close to real world
languages as possible, and it will open up your minds to the depth and width of the bizarre things that real world languages do.
Even your own native language, which there's probably a ton of things that you never noticed about your language
but when you stop and think about it or read about it, you start to realize that this is a
really weird way of saying the stuff that I have just always felt is totally normal because I grew up speaking this language.
So that's where I'm gonna end the video
I hope you guys liked it, and I hope you guys go out and buy the book, and I'll see you all next week!

came back onto the court.
we're learning about geometry and how to use a protractor to measure angles like obtuse and acute
the super scientist just visited us and we learned about simple machines.
we made a catapult and had a war with marshmallows. this project was to further understand
electromagnets so we took apart I think that has an Electra Matic including like
motors so when you take apart this thing you can see all the electromagnetism
happening and taking apart more parts you can see the - you can see the
watch and see everything that this unit embodies. we've been learning about the
rokoko style of art and one artwork from the Rococo style is called the swing by
Fragonard and there's a modern version or a contemporary version of the swing

Update Review 0.7.2 - Duration: 5:30.
Bonjour encore une fois, commandants!
We continue our Marseille vacations!
Eight magnificent French heavyweight fighters
come off the stocks to join the battle in Update 0.7.2!
You'll have a chance to test them in a new campaign,
an exciting operation,
and the second season of Clan Battles.
Some of you have already managed to obtain new French battleships.
Now, the entire branch is available
and you can research all the ships in it one after another.
You'll start your journey to the branch's top
with classic dreadnoughts from the beginning of the 20th century:
Turenne, Courbet,
and Bretagne.
Normandie—another generation and new armament.
Only three turrets,
but each housing four guns with a caliber of 340 millimeters.
Lyon has the same turrets, but four of them!
Sixteen guns at Tier VII— it's a record!
Richelieu stands out compared to other ships in the branch.
Only two turrets with four guns each
and both of them are on the bow.
On the other hand, their caliber is 380 millimeters
and she is equipped with Engine Boost,
like the following ships in the branch.
Another record holder— Alsace at Tier IX.
Twelve guns in her broadside!
It's a dangerous and difficult adversary.
The flagship of the branch—République—
carries two turrets with four guns in each of them.
She has the biggest caliber among all the newcomers—431 millimeters,
a reload time of only 24 seconds, and the Engine Boost consumable.
New French ships have their own unique character
and are ready to join the fight under your command.
Some of these battleships will come in handy
in the new operation Hermes,
which sees you defending an Allied convoy against German patrols.
Take note that each attack
is more powerful than the previous one.
The final engagement of the operation
will be against German battleships and aircraft carrier Graf Zeppelin.
An important feature of the operation—
a localized storm front—
will help you fight off superior enemy forces.
The best part is that you'll be rewarded
with containers and Doubloons
for completing additional missions of the operation.
Speaking of rewards.
The new campaign The Gold of France
will give you a chance to earn unique camouflages
for Dunkerque, Richelieu, and Gascogne,
as well as special French patches.
In Update 0.7.2,
many players who assembled the Isoroku Yamamoto collection
will have the ability to change the palette
of both standard and permanent camouflages.
The new unique color scheme for the "Japanese"
combines blue, grey, and black.
A great reason to complete the collection!
We continue to improve game maps.
The Atlantic received a range of small fixes,
and two small islands providing cover were added to Warrior's Path.
Northern Lights underwent more serious changes.
In the Supremacy mode,
the extreme key areas were moved to the eastern part of the map
and given to the teams from the very beginning,
while retaining them now earns fewer points.
Study maps,
get the advantage, and win!
The second season of Clan Battles continues!
Join the fight on your Tier X ships or use special clan ships.
Lead your clan to the top of the Hurricane League
and don't forget to complete the Typhoon League's combat mission
on your way to the cherished Stalingrad.
Let's talk about game mechanics.
Now, a magazine can detonate
only if a ship has no more than 75% of its combat capability points.
The number of disappointing situations
when your undamaged ship sinks as a result of a magazine explosion
after the very first hit
will significantly reduce.
Now for visual effects.
Following your numerous requests,
the water splashes caused by shell explosions will now settle quicker.
As a result, it became easier
to aim at ships that are under heavy fire.
Last, but not least,
take note of the new foam and the ship's wake.
Thanks to new textures and improved mechanics of their interaction,
the level of detail for these effects
became significantly higher.
Water in World of Warships is now even more beautiful,
so don't forget to contemplate the sea between engagements.
That's all for now.
Subscribe to our channel,
it has lots of interesting stuff!
I'm Dasha Perova.
Until next time!
Let's talk about game mechanics...
One more time!
Au revoir!
Finally, Yamamoto Isoroku! I've missed him so much!
And I've gathered the colle...

Milkadamia Review | Delicious Macadamia Nut Milk! - Duration: 5:02.
Hey there! Gonna review Milkadamia macadamia nut milk, starting now!
Hey, guys.Welcome to A.D. Keto. My name is Aaron. This is the channel where I talk
about the ketogenic diet. I do some keto food vlogs, I do some keto product
reviews, and I do some keto recipes. If this is your first time here, please
consider subscribing, and if you do, be sure to click the bell icon so you get a
notification whenever I upload new content. So guys, a couple weeks ago, the
February 2018 KetoKrate came, and -- you can see that video right up here -- and
inside was an unusual product to be shipped in a box. It was Milkadamia
macadamia nut milk. This stuff, Milkadamia. And it generated a lot of interest. There were
tons of comments about Milkadamia, and I figured, "You know what? Let's do a
quick review of it." So this is Milkadamia.
It''s a macadamia nut milk. Lemme just read you some of what's on the packaging, here. The
family-owned Glendilly Farm is nestled in the hinterland of the eastern coast
of Australia. Our macadamia groves are situated in the very region where the
tree originated, with just the right combination of sunshine and rainfall to
ensure the best tasting macadamias. Vanilla Unplugged. Sometimes it's the
simple things: popping bubble wrap, skinny dipping, gentle morning sun on your face,
smooth and creamy Milkadamia. Okay, maybe that one is just for us. "Simple
things like skinny dipping." Odd. How to Macadamia. How to macadamia. Savor a
superfood smoothie, melt into hot chocolate, bathe like Cleopatra. You guys.
Share. Share how you Milkadamia at #HowToMilkadamia.
Free-range trees. Trees supporting life, not trees on life support.
Macadamia trees are in total harmony with the earth, nurtured by natural
rainfall and sunshine. Dairy-free, 50% more calcium than milk, excellent source
of vitamin D and vitamin b12, lactose-free, soy-free, gluten-free, vegan,
cholesterol-free, carrageenan-free (I like that) compared to 1% dairy milk.
manufactured by Gentilly Beverages, LLC. WHOO!
So -- shout out to my friends, Kellie and Neha. On Kelly's Instagram, they gave a
little quick review of this stuff. Look at these two weirdos.
I love them. So that inspired me in part, as well, to do a little quick review of this
Milkadamia. Let me read you the nutrition information before I... before I
pour some. Serving size is eight ounces. Four servings in this container. Total
fat: 5 grams, total carbs: 1, dietary fiber: 1. So zero net carbs. And 1 gram of protein.
Ingredients: macadamia milk (which is filtered water and macadamias), calcium
phosphate, pea protein, natural flavors, locust bean gum, sea salt, sunflower
lecithin, gellan...gellin? Gellan gum, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin D12, vitamin
B12, contains macadamias. NOT for use as an infant formula, people. Don't do it.
All right, let's get into it. Sooo...got me a nice cup of ice here. Let's
just fill this puppy up a little bit. We'll go about half way. That's probably
a serving. There it is. Nice and smooth. I'll just put the cap back on, here. There you
go. Nice and smooth in there. Let's try it out. I do like that. It definitely tastes
like macadamia nuts. I can also taste the vanilla. It's very smooth. Very... like,
subtle. It's a subtle flavor. Compared to other nut milks, this is this is about as
sweet and smooth as you would expect with something like an almond milk, or an
almond coconut milk, or an almond cashew milk. Those are the three big ones that I
usually drink. This is right in that same sort of sweetness and smoothness area.
But it's macadamia nuts that are coming through, instead of like, cashews or
almonds. I'm a really a big fan... I'm a big fan of macadamia nuts in general, though I do
have to take it easy with them. I have a real...I have a tendency to go overboard
with them, because they're so delicious, and fatty, and easy. Gotta watch it with
those macadamias. But they're my favorit nut, bar none. And this is a nice little
subtle macadamia milk. Oh. So good. So...so let me know, if you guys have had this,
what you think. I know that it's... I don't know if I have ever seen this anywhere
but in that KetoKrate, so I don't know how many of you have had it. If you HAVE
had it, let me know what you think. I'm gonna leave a link to it down below, as
well. But that is Milkadamia macadamia nut milk. Really good stuff. I highly
recommend it. So there you go. I hope you enjoyed this video, guys. Hope you have a
fantastic day, and I will see you next time.

Day 6: Flight Review AirAsia to Phuket/Driving with Hertz to Patong - Duration: 11:43.
Hey, YouTube! It's Peter from Los Gatos. It's day six of our 2018 trip and
today, we're flying out of Don Mueang International Airport to Phuket Island.
Our phone said the ride from Silom should take about an hour... but we gave
our Uber driver two anyway - which ultimately burned through both because
of heavy traffic on the Tollway.
We're flying AirAsia Thailand again because we had a great experience
with them last year on our trip to Krabi.
This year's fares were just as good.
AirAsia's easy check-in and bag-drop system is pretty efficient!
Within 10 minutes of arriving, our checked bags were through and we were off to security.
Don Mueang has been around for a long time and is currently undergoing modernization.
It offers the same usual places like 7-11 and other fast-food chains
but, if you make a right after security and go down to the very end,
there is a place you can get yourself some made-to-order food and beer while
you wait. It's not the best, it's better than fast food.
After lunch we headed to our gate which seemed like a half-mile away.
AirAsia is a budget airline that offers short flights out of Don Mueang.
There are definitely mixed feelings about them, but from my experience
AirAsia Thailand is pretty good. We were assigned one of their new A320neo's.
Because our flight will take less than an hour, there are actually no amenities
and no IFE on board. If you want something to eat or drink - even water you'll have to
bring it with you from the terminal or buy it on-board.
For an extra cost, you can pay for assigned seats. There are even "hot seats" with red tops that give you
priority boarding and de-planing.
[ We're on an A320-200neo, which is really exciting. They don't allow you to use electronic
devices during take-off. But if you are careful enough...
...it might work out! ]
[ Flight Attendant announcement ]
We'll be staying in Phuket for almost a week! After a lot of research, we decided
to stay at an Airbnb in Patong. Patong is the liveliest of the beaches in all of
Phuket and is filled with bars and clubs. It's also central enough to everything so that
we could easily escape. We opted for a prepaid car rental instead of being
reliant on the cabs, scooters, or other transfer services. We were a little nervous
though, because Phuket has an insane driving fatality rate. We were in the air
for about 40 minutes. About halfway through, the flight attendants came
through with food and beverages for purchase. It wasn't really long after
until we began our initial descent into Phuket.
[ Flight Attendant announcement ]
[ AirAsia likes to deplane the old-fashioned way ]
After deplaning we were bused to baggage claim in the terminal.
Phuket International is also undergoing renovations...
...although didn't seem to get to where we were just yet. After our bags came we
headed to get our car at Hertz. We prepaid for everything, including insurance,
online so check-in was a breeze. They just need to photograph our passport,
our international driver's license, and take a hefty credit card deposit from us.
You know, even though I Drive pretty well in New York City traffic and we drove in
Krabi last year, I still pretty nervous.
The drive from Phuket International to our Airbnb should have taken about an hour...
...but, it was full of issues.
Our first mistake was deciding to use Waze instead of Google Maps.
As we would find out throughout the trip, neither were well mapped. Google was a little bit more ahead.
Waze caused us to take roads that didn't connect and also caused us to
miss some pretty crucial turn because, it didn't tell us which lanes to be in.
[ Oh, my god, again?!" ]
Second, the roads were full of new reckless kamikazes scooters.
Third, seeing the route on a map does not prepare you for the constant lane
shifts, sharp turns, or the crazy changes in elevation. Our rental car had
difficulty handling the steep hills and mountains.
Finally, even with a navigation aid, Phuket was full of these sudden turn-only lanes.
Unless he knew one was coming in advance, you'll probably end up in the wrong
lane trying to merge onto vicious, incoming traffic.
It was definitely a stressful first drive in Phuket, but now we're just a
turn away from our Airbnb.
[ ♫ Hallelujah ♫ ]
Our Airbnb was located at the end of one of the main strips.
It was just far enough to give us some well-needed tranquility before walking
the Jungceylon Mall for dinner.
Patong is not known for having the best or the cheapest food.
We ended up picking the Wine Connection which is a chain throughout Thailand because we
needed some wine and the bottles here with priced decently.
it was a little ironic though that we were having a cheeseburger in Thailand's
beach paradise. The food and wine were pretty good but we're probably not going
do this again during this trip.
After dinner we decided to take a scenic route
back to our Airbnb. We walk down the famous Bangla Road toward
the Patong Beach sign, just see to it. Bangla was like a busier, raunchier
version of Khaosan Road. At one point the ping-pong shows to the right of us and to the left of us.
Patong Beach itself looked...tired.
The loud music from Bangla could be heard throughout, the vibe of the people there was a little strange,
and the beach itself was pretty dirty.
Stay tuned for more videos of our stay in Phuket. It will be interesting to see
what this place to actually like during the day!
if you liked this video, be sure to give it a thumbs up and subscribe to our
channel for new videos every week. Thanks for watching and we'll see you
next time. Bye!

REVIEW: I Am Not A Serial Killer by Dan Wells - Duration: 6:40.
Well hi there you!
Welcome back to TO READ OR NOT TO READ. I am so happy that I'm back doing review videos and today
I am going to review...
I Am Not A Serial Killer by Dan Wells
MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
So if you haven't been following my blog which I have been much more active on lately I have started doing
content rating -a sort of movie style rating to let people know the kind of content that's in a book and like what
general audience i would recommend it to this book i would rate at
PG-16 because it does have disturbing content and images, some violence,
thematic elements involving serial killers and DEATH and it has
kind of a dark tone so I would definitely only recommend this for mature
readers. Well, right off the bat there is one big bonus about this book.
Despite the PG-16 rating there is next to no swearing. I think there was maybe one damn in the entire book and
there is no smut!
Plus even when it's dealing with the grisly events that are in this book it does not go into
grotesque or gory detail. But yeah I'm not gonna lie. I Am Not A Serial Killer is dark.
It is macabre and morbid
I now know more about the embalming process than I ever knew I didn't want to know.
Yeah, I'm having a closed-casket funeral, thank you very much.
And as if that isn't dark enough this book also slams you front and center into the mind of a sociopath
And you want to know something?
It is absolutely fantastic
Oh my gosh I love this book, you guys
All right, now I do not do horror. I don't like slashers, I don't like scary stories.
I'm telling you an Alfred Hitchcock thriller or
maybe M Night Shyamalan's The Village is as high as i go on the intensity scale okay?
Wells has created something here that is so
unique and significant and compelling that I could
not put it down. You might notice this is not a library copy I'm holding for this review. This is the copy I
went out and bought after I read the library copy
-and realized that I wasn't taking the library copy back...
All right where do we begin?
John Wayne Cleaver is a 15 year old sociopath
worse than that he possesses several key predictors of a serial killer
He knows that he possesses the predictors of a serial killer and he fears that fate for
his future so much he has set himself a list of strict rules
To ensure that he never gives in to any of those compulsions
Even better this story is told from his perspective and when I say his
perspective I mean right front and center in his mind we get to see
everything. We see his dark side, we see his normal facade, and we see the fear he has of himself.
You want to talk about character depth? We are so deep in John's head -we are so deep in his point of view-
that this is not a book *about* John Wayne Cleaver.
This book IS John Wayne Cleaver.
Aaaaaand right about now you're probably thinking
Yeah, Amanda, this doesn't really sound like the book for me.
It sounds, you know, disturbing and messed up as all get-out,
so i'm just -I'm just -I'm just gonna go now. Kay? ...Yeah.
But that is THE THING!
The skill of Dan Wells' pen is evident here because of how well he
portrays John as a
sympathetic character.
Especially when it's being told from inside the guy's own head! There is no sugarcoating. This is all
blatant and black and white and stark and realistic.
John is complicated and terrifying and so vulnerable
and I absolutely love him
He is at once the hero and the antagonist of the story because
he wants to do the right thing but in order to do the right thing he feels that he has to rely a little bit
on his dark side which is a really really really bad thing. While John Wayne Cleaver
definitely takes the cake in the most interesting character department for this book
I have to say that the best character by far in the story is
Dr. Ben Neblin
He serves as John's therapist and the moral compass of
the story and that is a crucial thing to have in this kind of material
Neblin almost wins hands down for this quote alone:
"You are always in control of your own destiny and you are always the one who makes your own choices
No one else."
Truer words were never spoken and when you're dealing with material as dark and heavy as this, it is important
Nay- VITAL
to make such a brutal and blatant distinction as
to who must stand responsible for the reprehensible actions not only in this book but in the reality beyond it
and that is why i love this book
Just, so we're clear as much as I have been going off about
character and narration, the plot is just as good I mean there are literally no downsides
to this book
for me this is an amazing book
and Wells also manages a good balance between John's own removed emotions
and the gravity and reverence with which the other characters
treat those same events that he still manages to make the book as a whole respectable
And, as only the truly great writers, Wells manages to use every instance of that difference as a
building block for John's character depth and development, intertwined with the plot details.
How many times? How many times do I have to proclaim my love of all things character?!
I Am Not A Serial Killer is unique, raw,
challenging, and beautifully written.
Everyone should read this. If you read one book this year that I recommended you
Make it this one. Make it this one!
I -this book-

Kazu guckt... Violet Evergarden | Episode 6 - 7 | Live Reaction & Review [ German | ENG SUBs ] - Duration: 52:26.
Hey my dears and welcome back to "Kazu guckt" I'm Kazu and today I'm watching episode 6 and 7 of Violet Evergarden.
In the last episodes Violet met a few new characters who helped her on her way to understand human feelings.
I personally hope she wouldn't meet new people anymore. I want more about her and the characters we already know
Have fun with my live reaction
Where to drive?
I like his eyes and his hair... but again it's a new character!
Well then the character episodes will probably continue...
I do understand that you can learn more about people when you meet many different people but.. I just don't like it
But I will watch it to the end no worries
I already know with whom violet will be together
I knew it! But I still like him! His eyes, his hair, looking like a girl
she's so young
is he faszinated by her or does he know her?
HE'S CUTE
To be honest, if he had short hair he would look like Haru from Free!
Luculia appeared again *fangirling*
I like him
I couldn't type that fast
is he talking fast on purpose?
beautiful scenery again
she said that beautifully
yes
he's great
let him have it!
but she doesn't talk like that anymore
he's searching for her
You could understand it wrong
Does he love the stars?
He's so excited when he talks about astrology
maybe that's what he loves so much
he's so nice
they would be cute together...
His voice sounds so familiar to me
cute
yes you know
told you so
sure
cuute
don't cry~
guys... even though it was a character episode again I loved it so much
i liked Leon so much
I like how Violet learns by helping others
I think she already learnt much about feelings and humanity but she doesn't realize what those feelings are
She doesn't understand but I think she's on a good way to become a "ordinary girl" again
Just like the scene where Leon thaught her that what she is feeling is lonelyness. She already feels a lot but she cannot name it
There is a huge difference already between her in episode 1 and her now
in her character and her appeariance
She's so much more emotional and expressiv now
Alright, let's end this here and continue with episode 7!
I'm back and start with episode 7 now
such a bad ending
She's meeting someone new again.. well I'm fine with it
some character episodes like the last one and the luculia one were so good so maybe this will be good too
Didn't he invite her?
there is some party going on outside my window...
Well most famous people start to drink or take drugs because of the pressure
so sweet
something happened with his wife I think
he writes books but cannot write by himself?
exactly what she has to learn
oh so he's waiting for his daughter not his wife?
maybe it's this olive
Told you
Did she really try it?
the teeth gap
so she died...
she really learnt empathy
she knows it
It's a little weird to have a 14 years old girl to drive around the world alone and staying at an middle aged man's place
I wouldn't do that in real life
what about the gods?
aw he's giving it to her
she learnt
god...
guys
that was quite an episode
A VERY emotional character episode, which really touched me
I was so sorry for the father who lost his daughter
and Violet who started to realize that her major is probably dead
and she doesn't want it to be true
the last few minutes were.. intense
I'm a little speechless
the second half was intensiv
I didn't cry but there WERE tears in my eyes
When it was keep going like this I would have cried
now I really want to know how it continues but there isn't a new episode yet
I have to take it in
Do you think it's possible that her major is still alive?
I don't think so tbh
but it could be
maybe he went away to die or something... do you think he's still alive?
I don't think so. It will be hard for Violet
It would be hard if they find him dead but it would probably be more hard to never find him
because she will always have the hope to find him
Sorry, I'm still worn out
Write down in the comments if you think that the major is still alive
Yes? No? Just write it down

See you next time, bye bye

ANNIHILATION Movie Review – Natalie Portman – Tessa Thompson – Alex Garland – #Netflix #Annihilation - Duration: 6:09.
Hey folks, I'm Max.
Catch me on Twitter at LazyMovieNerd.
Annihilation is a movie that's out in theaters now and will go to Netflix soon after.
Should you see it in the theater or wait and watch it at home?
To me this movie has the feel of a TV show episode, more than of a feature film.
I think that it would have made a great episode of Fringe.
Some kind of a weird anomaly is discovered that cannot be explained by regular observations,
so a team of scientists go inside to figure it out.
A few weird things happen to them inside and then they get to the source of the issue.
For this to work as a feature film, it would need some more meat, in my opinion.
As it is, the plot is stretched over a two hour runtime, causing the pacing to be very
uneven.
The end result is an incoherent mess.
The movie slowly plods along, and then suddenly a scene rushes by at breakneck speed.
Then we plod along for a while until blamo!
Another scene rushes by.
What's maddening is that the scenes that are rushed are the ones that could make this
film interesting.
Let me elaborate a bit.
There's a bit of a slow setup before the characters go into "the shimmer," that's
what they call the anomaly, and then they are inside.
Immediately the plot jumps a few days ahead.
It is evident as to why it does so, as the film tries to play with the concept of time,
but this is just one of the times when the change of pace is so jarring, that it takes
you out of the movie.
Similarly, later on we slowly plod until we rush through what could have been an awesome
character development and horror scene, but it is over before you know it.
This movie tries to be a thought-provoking intellectual piece like Arrival or Blade Runner
2049, but due to poor pacing and a thin storyline it misses the mark by a lot.
It feels like a pseudo-intellectual attempt at depth and allegory.
It attempts to make us think of concepts such as the human tendency for self-destruction,
be it through bad relationships or habits like drug use and smoking.
It uses the shimmer and what's inside of it as a not-so-subtle metaphor for cancer.
This all could have worked, if the plot was a bit beefier or the pacing more even.
An additional thing that the movie lacks is tension.
Arrival, Blade Runner, even Interstellar, had plenty of that throughout.
I didn't like Interstellar, but I admit that it kept my attention.
Not Annihilation.
The narrative is not linear, so it jumps between the main character being interrogated after
coming out from the shimmer and the actual events within.
Kind of like in Atomic Blonde.
Except that in Atomic Blonde this wasn't distracting, but just added to the tale.
Here this style of storytelling was not put to good use.
We are told in the very beginning which characters survive and which don't.
So whenever the survivors are placed in peril, it feels hollow.
I'm deliberately being vague, so as to not spoil this film for you, in case you do decide
to watch it.
In spite of all the things I have just bitched about, the movie could have been salvageable,
if it had a satisfying ending.
Instead, the scenes when the main character reaches the source of the shimmer are anti-climactic
at best and thoroughly cliché at worst.
It made me think of the movie Signs, where an idiotic twist screws up everything.
There isn't much of a twist here, just a letdown.
Kind of like in Interstellar where the climax is diffused with a bunch of metaphysical nonsense.
Even before seeing this film, the shots of the shimmer from the trailer made me think
of the book "The Great North Road" by Peter Hamilton.
In spite of having a very unsatisfying ending, that book is still a favorite of mine.
In it, there's stuff called Zanth, that arrives from outer space and envelops everything
in a gel-like substance.
Plants, people, buildings, all get preserved like dead moths in a crystal.
When they showed the shimmer in a trailer, I realized that that was how I always pictured
Zanth in my mind.
I highly recommend the book.
It's a much better investment of time than Annihilation the movie.
So, what DID I like about this film?
Mainly, the acting.
The main characters are played by Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tessa Thompson,
and Gina Rodriguez.
They're all excellent and get their chance to shine.
However, because of the poor pacing, these chances are fleeting.
For example, Gina Rodriguez gets an awesome scene towards the second half of the film,
but it goes by too fast, so we only get a fleeting glimpse of her great job of portraying
a character who is affected by what's going on in the shimmer.
Tessa Thompson also gets a beautiful scene a bit later, but again, it's glossed over
too quickly.
Instead of dedicating some runtime to these scenes, we plod along, looking at scenery.
Additionally, I really liked the cinematography.
This film is gorgeous!
The filmmakers make great use of colors and effects to really make the interior of the
shimmer seem like magic.
That's where the plodding pace is actually a good thing, because you get to look at pretty
scenery for a while.
No amount of great acting or pretty visuals can save a movie if the story is lacking.
As I said before, there isn't enough meat on the bones of this tale and the lame ending
just seals it.
I still recommend that you see this film, but do it when it's on Netflix because you
can pause and get a snack when you're bored half-way through.
That's about it.
Click the thumbs up below because you're awesome like that and click the subscribe
button if you think that I'm awesome.
I'm Max and I'll see you later!
