Record of Ragnarok Predictions part 2: Humanity Still Wins!
So, there was a few things I got wrong with my last predictions & my predictions might have changed some things about the future of the series since it's been released. I'll go over more about that a bit later. Because right now, SO much has changed that it throws a Sun Wukong size wrench into my last theories. These first two matches are the one's that have finished since I wrote my previous Article "Record of Ragnarok fight predictions: humans win!" If you haven't read it yet & want to, please click the link & check out what I wrote about the seriesbefore this. (Insert link here) Spoilers Ahead and with that out of the way. SPOILERS!!!! I was wrong about what Tesla's powers would be. I was thinking it was going to be something more than just prep time. I did predict the perp time. I was hoping his understanding of how things worked that when he got his völundr it would allow him to create things on the fly like a sorcerer. I guess he would have been too OP for whatever is coming after Ragnarok. Beelzebub being a scientist & a master of vibrations is a beautiful twist that I absolutely love! By the end of the match I knew there was no way the Tesla could have ever won this match. I predicted Beelzebub's was going to win his match, I couldn't figure out who or how cause I had a love for Tesla. BUT, Now that he's no longer in the tournament, I have no biases left for the characters & can analyze them all to their fullest. I was wrong about the fight order as well. But, so far, the ENTIRE FANBASE can agree that Odin Vs King Leonidas, is the last match. I have a idea that the writers Shinya Umemura & Takumi Fukui along with illustrator Ajichika might be picking the match order at random & already picked out the matches & their winners but to keep everyone on their toes they're picking the fights in a random order. Just one idea. Otherwise wouldn't having certain characters fight each other sooner or later base on their power levels be the best approach? Clearly the First 1 match is a great opening match. But Adam vs Zeus? It felt too soon to see this fight didn't it? But we'll see going forward. I'll go into more Unanswered Questions further down. Qui Shi Huang Vs Hades is a match I couldn't put my finger on in a prediction. I didn't want to think they would use ANOTHER Greek Deity. I was surprised by Qui Shi Huang wins as well cause I was predicting that the God's Guest Fighter would win their match. I couldn't have predicted Qui Shi Huang abilities or völundr. It was a glorious match nonetheless that's going to be the first match I go over in this article below.

Fast X ;review
Has the Fast & Furious franchise earned a victory lap? That’s the key question behind an appraisal of “Fast X,” a film that brazenly plays like a Greatest Hits collection from a hit artist. Not only does it directly link to the massive, franchise-turning “Fast Five” in its narrative, but it constantly recalls other films in this series either through direct mention or action beats designed to recall similar moments in movies like “Fast & Furious 6,” “Furious 7,” and “The Fate of the Furious.” The script by Dan Mazeau and "Fast Five" director Justin Lin (who left the film after creative differences and whose absence is felt in terms of action choreography) is like a snake eating its own tail, often playing like a parody of the franchise more than a new entry that cruises on its own four wheels. Even as it’s spinning through enjoyably goofy action set pieces, most of them enlivened greatly by a fun performance from Jason Momoa, there’s a desperate familiarity to all of “Fast X” that makes it even more like reheated leftovers than it has before. This is reportedly the start of a trilogy that will close the series. Let’s hope they come up with at least one fresh idea in the next two flicks.

Peaky blinders
The Peaky Blinders were a street gang based in Birmingham, England, which operated from the 1880s until the 1910s. The group consisted largely of young criminals from lower- to middle-class backgrounds. They engaged in robbery, violence, racketeering, illegal bookmaking, and control of gambling. Members wore signature outfits that typically included tailored jackets, lapelled overcoats, buttoned waistcoats, silk scarves, bell-bottom trousers, leather boots, and peaked flat caps.

Mulholland Drive's SENSE OF LIFE
In Mulholland Drive, the audience is presented with two different versions of one character: Betty and Diane, the heroine and the anti-heroine. The first one--who doesn't really appear until several minutes of the movie have already taken place and might only exist in a dream world ("dream place") or alternate dimension--appears innocent, young, and somewhat optimistic like a hopeful 1950s/60s teenager who wants to live an amazing life. The second version (Diane) seems bitter, older, and virtually hopeless.

The Mathematics of the Soul
I stared out my office window at the rain as it came down in sheets over the city. Everyone complained about the rain and the smog that filtered the city lights, they made the nights darker and painted the days a perpetual twilight, which suited me fine.
