Welcome back to Thrak Attack! What’s your adventure? This month, I know it’s a little late, has been filled with lots of travel adventures but also a few games, music, and TV shows thrown in there too! It’s bee sort of a light month with the end of the school year but we’ll stretch it to get a top 10 adventures of May 2022!
10. “Explosions” by Three Days Grace is a generic rock album. Nothing stood out about this album to me but nothing was so bad I had to turn it off. It’s just there and it sounds like rock music. That’s why it’s the last adventure on this list.
9. “Misery Made Me” by Silverstein is the follow up to their amazing 2020 album which made the Top 10 of the year! Although this album does have some substance with songs like “Our Song” and “Misery” and it does have some thought out themes, it just falls short of a great album.
8. Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness was not a great movie and by that standard it was a terrible marvel movie. After just seeing the superior multiverse movie a month earlier I was supremely disappointed in the amount of madness in the movie. Sam Raimi did not fit with the vibe of Doctor Strange and aside from the Scarlett Witch being fantastic and a few other great cameos.,. This movie was pretty lame.
7. Chip n’ Dale Rescue Rangers was more of a madness than the previous movies with countless references to other media (including outlet stores) along with a bonkers cast, and a setting that made me more uncomfortable than any other film.
5. Candy is a Hulu murder mystery series based on a true story. I am not usually a fan of this one but Jessica Biel does such a great job as the title character and the way the show is framed does a great job of keeping the pieces apart until the very end.
4. Gibbon: Beyond the Trees is an Apple Arcade and/or Switch game and although I think it would be fine on the switch, I am glad I played on my phone. It’s one of the few games that actually works better on a touch screen. The gameplay is a simple endless runner using your momentum to swing through the trees but there is a story. As you swing and slide through the rainforest the background slowly shows signs of human life. I don’t want to give the plot of the game away but you should diffidently check it out and make sure to play all the way through!
3. Under the Banner of Heaven is another murder mystery this time on FX. Again I’m not usually a murder mysteries but this time it was Andrew Garfield who pulled me in! Again, not my style but I recognize that it is a solid show which brings it up to the Top 3 spot!
2. “Dance Fever” by Florence + the Machine is not her best album but even her worst album is kick ass! The only reason why I say it is her worst album is because it is not an album for me. This album is written for women and I am not a woman. I love some of the songs such as “Choreomania”, “Dream Girl Evil”, and “Morning Elvis” but they are not written for me. It is for sure a great album though and one that you should check out!
1. Obi Wan Kenobi on Disney+ is probably the most anticipated series of the year and the 2 episode premier does not disappoint. With a few bad acting bits, the plot of this show is exactly what people were asking for and promises to deliver on one of the biggest finales in any Star Wars shows to date!
