Review of 'Rise of Knight and Sword'
Avalon, city of kings. Sky towers and airships dominate its skyline, dinosaurs roam freely throughout its parklands, and bounty hunters lurk in its shadows. Guinevere has always lived on the outskirts of Avalon, working as an archivist in the central library. While corruption runs rampant throughout the city, her life is fairly mundane and predictable. That is, until she discovers the map to Excalibur and uncovers a plot to usurp the throne. Finding herself on the run from these would-be king-slayers, Guinevere sets out to find the mythical sword. But with no one to trust and no where to hide, she must form an uneasy alliance with a pair of notorious bounty hunters." My future, and the future of Avalon are forward." Rise of Knight and Sword is the first installment of the One Sword Saga. It reimagines Arthurian legend in a steampunk fantasy world at the height of the 1920's. Follow Guinevere and crew as they face off against smugglers, wild dinosaurs, hidden motives, and mistrust.

"Don't Look Up"
Adam McKay, known for his work on "Anchorman" and "The Big Short," attempted to tackle a larger scope with "Don't Look Up," a film that aims to comment on social media, technology, global warming, celebrity, and humanity as a whole. However, the movie falls short, failing to be insightful or engaging. The star-studded cast, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Ariana Grande, Cate Blanchett, Tyler Perry, and Jennifer Lawrence, adds to the disappointment as their talent is wasted on a poorly executed story. The film's opening joke, featuring DiCaprio as a low-level astronomer, sets the tone for a string of uninspired gags and missed opportunities. The characters' attempts to spread their news about the impending apocalypse are met with apathy, and the movie ultimately fails to make a lasting impact. The editing also contributes to the film's shortcomings, as it jumps from scene to scene without fully developing them, adding to the feeling of disjointedness. Overall, "Don't Look Up" is a disappointment, failing to live up to the potential of its talented cast and director.

Here are 10 movies that don’t try to be the next Marvel, but still well worth two hours of your life.

My Review of "Gladiator"
Gladiator is an epic period piece that was released back in the year 2000. Watching this movie again brings back a flood of nostalgia and also reminded me as to why I loved this movie back then. Strangely enough, I think this movie really resonates to today's climate more so than back in the day. In that respect I think it really aged quite nicely.

"AI Revolution: How Artificial Intelligence is Changing the World"
Definition of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and learn like humans. It involves the development of computer systems that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as understanding natural language, recognizing images and patterns, making decisions, and solving problems. AI can be divided into two main categories: narrow or weak AI, which is designed for a specific task, and general or strong AI, which has the ability to perform any intellectual task that a human can. The field of AI research began in the 1950s and has since grown to encompass a wide range of sub-disciplines, including machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and robotics.

Doctor Who: Brave New Town Review
One of the most arresting elements of the Eighth Doctor Adventures was its ability to bring new life to old Doctor Who monsters. Across four seasons, the production team brought back the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Zygons, Morbius, the Krynoids, the Wirrn, the Metebelis Spiders, the Monk and the Ice Warriors to face the Doctor and Lucie. However, one of the most interesting - and, potentially, daring - old foes to come back were the Autons, in 2008's "Brave New World". Being mostly silent automatons of the Nestene Consciousness may not make them an obvious choice to bring back on audio, so it makes what writer Jonathan Clements does with them here even more interesting. And, as a result, this becomes one of the most novel Eighth Doctor Adventures, despite its use of a traditional element in its storytelling. It really pushes how far you can take the Autons, as well as telling a genuinely intriguing mystery story into the bargain. It all adds up to one of the stronger instalments of one of the most well-regarded series from Big Finish.
