OCTOBER 2018 TOP 3

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! The last of the month is when I review and make a Top 3 list of things that happened or were released this month. It just so happens the first of the month is also on Halloween and a Wednesday, so it's pretty hectic today. With all that being said however, here are the things I got into this month!

-Courtney Barnett Concert
-"Unheavenly Creatures" by Coheed and Cambria
-Apple Watch Series 4
-Foo Fighters Concert
-Hobo Johnson Concert
-Seattle Trip
-Venom
-Daredevil (Season 3)
-Pokemon Go Community Day (Beldum)
-Red Dead Redemption 2
-"Masters of the Sun" by Black Eyed Peas
-Apple Event

This month was pretty packed and a lot of it was really good stuff. There were a lot of things that I did not care for though so here are my Top 3 list for October 2018!

3. "Vaxis- Act I: The Unheavenly Creatures" by Coheed and Cambria is their 9th studio album and a great return to form for the band. Going back into the story and comics that we love and going back to a prog rock concept album for the ages that will kick off a 5 album series that will push us right back into the Amory Wars. Some of the favorites on the album include "The Unheavenly Creatures", "Lucky Stars", and "Toy". If you have not checked out this album yet I highly recommend it!

2. Courtney Barnett Live at the Van Buren- Ever since my road trip last year to Taos, NM; I have been obsessed with Courtney Barnett's sound and mesmerizing lyrics. She is by far one of the best lyricists of the past 10 years. I really got into her second album and when her 3rd album was released last spring I instantly fell in love. When I found out she was coming to Phoenix I bought tickets and was super impressed with the Van Buren as a venue and in her performance. If alternative rock and amazing lyrics is your thing, please check her out! Also, getting an exclusive Spotify singles vinyl helps too!

1. Seattle- This was my second time in Seattle, the first time was with my family when I was 11 years old. This time was when I was 27 and with my best friend; so this time was much better and more memorable. We did everything I wanted to do! Pike Place, Gum Wall, Breweries, OG Starbuck, Space Needle, Pop Culture Museum, Funko HQ, Fremont Troll,  many game stores, and a hike! It was a legendary trip and I will diffidently be going back in the future!

Well there you have it! Hope you guys enjoyed! Let me know what your Top 3 of October was! Wait until December when we do a Top 10 list of 2018! Thank you all for reading!

                                   All the Best, Ross

Pokemon Cinematic Universe

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! What's your adventure? This week's adventure was Detective Pikachu which is an awesome live action Pokemon Movie but not the Pokemon we were expecting. Even though this movie was really well done, I believe there in the future for us in regards to another cinematic universe. The way they handled this film and the references in it are perfectly done and do set up a future for this for happening. SPOILER WARNING for Detective Pikachu, if you have not seen this please, go watch the film and then come on back! Alright let's get started with the film we received this past weekend. Pokemon: Detective Pikachu is a mystery film taking place in the Pokemon World based on a video game of the same name. Tim Goodman meets a talking Pikachu after his father mysteriously passes away. Throughout the film we realize that it is actually his father trapped inside Pikachu's body although none of the characters know this until the end. The villain's plan...

S3 Finale: Top 10 Shows of 2021

 Welcome back to Thrak Attack! What's your adventure? This year I added a new category to Thrak Attack's lineups of adventures. I've never been a big TV show follower but I felt like with the MCU adding TV shows and access to some new streaming services to my roster over quarantine that it was time to add those adventures in! So here is a Thrak Attack first, The Top 10 Shows of 2021! 10. Hawkeye on Disney+  is not a great mini series but has some great character introductions and moments for the MCU. Most importantly introducing Kate Bishop who will hopefully take up the mantle of Hawkeye, Yelena reconciling with Clint about Natasha's death in Endgame, and the reintroduction of a character from the Netflix Marvel shows!   9. The Shrink Next Door on Apple TV+ was a short and sweet show based on a podcast which is an interesting transition. Both Paul Rudd and Will Ferrel shine in this show showcasing both of their acting chops. The plot is pretty simple but is com...

Hotel Transylvania 4: Transformania

  Welcome back to Thrak Attack, what's your adventure? Today's adventure takes us to the amazon rainforest on a quest for a crystal to change humans into monsters and monsters into humans. In the 4th installment of this weirdly long running series that is the plot! Does it make sense? Is it enjoyable to watch? Are there some redeeming qualities to this series that went from theater releases to straight to streaming? We shall see. Like I said before this is the fourth installment to the Hotel Transylvania series and I did not realize it was successful enough to make a fourth one. However, the first three were theatrical releases and this time around it was released only on Amazon Prime. Due to this, Adam Sandler is no longer the voice of the lead character Dracula but instead goes to Brian Hull who has mainly done voice acting for the Pup Star series, Tangled: the Series, and a Hotel Transylvania short film.  There is something going for this movie though mainly that the cast i...
