Mostly about the story, comfort.

Films, series, books, albums, games. Skip anything you haven't met.

A taste fingerprint: fourteen dimensions, read against every other Bud. Yours appears after a handful of ratings.

Not a genre label: how it moves, how it feels, what it asks of you. Every film, series, book, album and game is read on the same fourteen scales, each in its own terms (a record's tempo and sound, a game's challenge and world), and your profile is matched against them.

I did not expect Titanium Court to hit this hard. The comedy lands again and again. The ironic distance is sharp, never smug.
Mostly about the craft.
One of the best things I have watched this year. The kind of work that makes the rest of the year look lazy.
S.p.l.i.t mostly works, and when it works it really works. Heavy going, and it is meant to be. Small and intimate, and all the better for it. Worth your time.
Blue Heron is the real thing. Serious in intent and in execution. Slow in the way that lets things sink in. It earned every star.
Everything I hoped Hurry Up Tomorrow would be, and more. It goes to bleak places and does not flinch. It leaves the big questions open, and trusts you with them. I keep telling people about it.
Mostly about the story.
David Markson at the top of their game with Wittgenstein's Mistress. It lives inside its characters' heads, and that is where it shines. Go in knowing as little as you can.
Mostly about the performances, the craft, the story.
Indescribable without the term kitchen sink. What a self-indulgent mess.
