Board 8 > All media consumed in 2019

(+) Yeah! (+)

So I've kept track of every movie watched, every game beaten, every new album listened to, every tv season finished, etc. throughout 2019 and gave a brief score to each of them. Might speak briefly on the top or bottom ones, not sure if there's anything I want to do with this info, but here it is.

Spoiler alert for the upcoming Gauntlet Crew Ranks Musicals II topic, I see.

Edit: Fixed, good catch

I'll start with Worst of each category:

Worst movies (Tie): Holmes and Watson & Demonic Toys

Holmes and Watson I watched after it won the Razzie for worst film of the year, and admittedly I was hesistant to believe it could be that bad (normally, Will Ferrell at his worst is unfunny but inoffensive). I was so, so terribly mistaken, as this isn't just unfunny, but downright painful to get through. The jokes don't just not land, they drag on and on and on until you just beg for the movie to end.
Demonic Toys I watched for the Gauntlet rankings, and I'm still a little angry at Snake for making me watch what is ojectively just horrible in every sense of the word.
Ultimately, I hate them both equally in different ways and can't choose between them.

Worst game: Hello Neighbor

For whatever reason I didn't bother looking at reviews before getting this; I just solely bought it out of curiousity about the concept and due to it becoming endlessly popular out of nowhere. One of the biggest gaming regrets I've ever made, as the whole thing is a broken, unplayable mess that they had the audacity to release.

Worst show: PEN15

This show isn't listed in the shows watched, simply because I didn't finish it. The TV seasons tend to average higher than the other categories, simply because a show is usually more of a time investment that a movie or album, so it's harder to justify finishing something I'm not enjoying. That was the case with PEN15, a show about two adult women playing their middle schooler selves. It's the type of awkward, cringy humor that I just couldn't get into at all (same reason I wasn't a fan of Strangers with Candy). Not offensively bad like the previous three, but definitely not enjoyable.

Worst album: IceJJFish - Sea Sick

A coworker tricked me into listening to this. I'll let the music speak for itself.

Worst Musical, Short Film, Standup, etc: Brother's Bounty

This year I had the chance to go to a film festival for the first time, which was a blast. Plenty of great movies and short films, some local and some international. During the film festival was a student film block made up of short films from local colleges. Most ranged from pretty good to shockingly great, but one was by far the worst of the bunch. I hate to shit on a student just trying to achieve their goals, but... man, everything about this, the writing, the directing, and especially the acting, were SO far below the standard of everthing else shown at the festival.
