Best of 2018 (Part 1)

Well another year has come and gone with some amazing adventures and memorable experiences! This part one of the years end review which I will list out all of the adventures I have been on this year. Every video game played, every movie enjoyed, every trip to somewhere new, and every musical adventure (song and album). Tomorrow's post will be the actual list but I wanted to write today and I figured to split up the post into 2 different sections with one as a general overview and one with the full list. So with all of that out of the way, let's see what adventures I went on this year! MOVIES! Black Panther - Well done but basic MCU film with HUGE fanfare. A Wrinkle in Time - One of the worst films I've ever seen. Avengers: Infinity War - One of the biggest films of all time and a big step for the MCU. Deadpool 2 - Another fun and inventive yet crude outing for the Merc with a Mouth. Solo: A Star Wars Story - The 2nd anthology film for the Star Wars franchise, and an...

#12- Raconteurs

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! This week was a busy one with the end of the school semester, traveling home for the holidays, and Christmas. So unfortunately I have been slacking on my movies and have not seen Aquaman or Mary Poppins Returns yet. Those might have to wait until next year to be reviewed. But there have been a few bits of news and song songs to review so here we go! NEWS! -The Pirates of the Caribbean reboot (good lord, give it a rest!) will not be featuring Johnny Depp or the Jack Sparrow character at all. -Disney released a video previewing the Millenium Falcon attraction opening up at Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland and Disney's Hollywood Studios later this year. -Spider-Man (PS4) has new DLC titled "Silver Lining" and features a Stan Lee cameo that acts as a tribute to the famed comic creator. TRAILERS! Men in Black: International- Looks like a fun and true to form reboot of the series. There is no indication of if it is a hard or soft reboot. I...

#11- Into the Spider-verse

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! We're closing out the year with our last regular post of 2018. We are getting into Top 10's of 2018 territory and I also still have one more movie to review. So let's get the ball rolling there has been a ton of news this week! So let's get started! NEWS! -The first look at the Sonic the Hedgehog film looks horrendous and I can't wait shovel popcorn into my mouth as I watch this terrible film! -The 7 new Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees have been announced and include The Cure, Def Leppard, Janet Jackson, Stevie Nicks, Radiohead, Roxy Music, and The Zombies. None of my favorites but all great choices. -Tony Hawk finally releases an mobile game for iOS and Android titled "Tony Hawk Skate Jam". This makes logical sense for the series. -Police respond to a noise complaint and then joined in the Smash Bros game that caused it. That's how you do it! -Pokemon Go player vs. player battles are finally live but I have n...

#10- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! It's been a crazy week! House warming party, getting sick, Winter Festival, it's been a long week but we're pushing through. I got a great game and a good trailer to get me through the week. I also have a lot of news from a variety of things, so let's get started! NEWS! -MTV is contemplating rebooting Celebrity Deathmatch and I could not be more excited. -Netflix is paying $100 million dollars to keep friends streaming for 1 more year...

#9- Tempe Arts Festival

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! I hope you all are having an amazing week and are ready for the last month of the year! 2018 is almost done! So this week there were no big releases and I thought about doing a Top 5 of November episode but I did get to go to the Tempe Festival of the Arts. So we'll go through some news, a trailer breakdown, the review of the event, and then the Top 5 of November. This short post is turning into a long one. Let's get rocking! NEWS! -Red Dead Redemption 2 finally released its online functionality. I'll eventually go back into that game. -Daredevil Season 4 has been cancelled. I'm hoping we get a season of Defenders to resolve everything and then call it a day on these. -Bethesda has pushed back the "Elder Scrolls: Blades" mobile game to 2019. I would rather have a complete game than a quick release. -There are 500,000 Spongebob fans that signed a petition to have "Sweet Victory" performed at the Super Bowl Halftime ...
