You are Talion, Ranger of the Black Gate. For what seems like eons, you have guarded the entrance to Mordor, keeping watch over Sauron's undisturbed dwelling place with relative uneventfulness. But in the blink of an eye, everything you hold dear is snatched from your grasp. Your family, your friends — even your very life is taken from you in one fell swoop that leaves your soul desolate and filled with an eternal rage. Resurrected by an unforgiving spirit, you have one purpose to your life, one thing that keeps your heart pumping and your mind from giving in to the relentless grief — vengeance. Prepare yourself to embark on a dogged vendetta that calls upon you to fight your way through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit who compels you. This epic tale of revenge and redemption transforms you into the most feared force in the land — the Shadow of Mordor.Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor delivers a dynamic game environment where the player orchestrates their personal plan of vengeance as they bend Mordor to their will. The game begins on the night of Sauron's return to Mordor, as his Black Captains brutally execute the Rangers of the Black Gate. Players become Talion, a ranger who loses his family and everything he holds dear, only to be returned from death by a mysterious Spirit of vengeance. Based on the player's actions with the in-game Nemesis System, every enemy encountered is distinct and can evolve to become a personal archenemy through the course of the game. As Talion's personal vendetta unfolds, players uncover the mystery of the Spirit that compels him, discover the origin of the Rings of Power and confront the ultimate nemesis. This Game of the Year Edition includes a host of Story and Warband Missions, Challenge modes, Runes, Skins and more to enhance your Shadow of Mordor experience.
Turns out, one CAN simply walk into Mordor and kick some serious tail in the process. One of the best PS4 titles to date. Even if you're not into Lord of the Rings/Middle Earth, this game can stand alone and is a top notch sandbox. You'll learn some LOTR lore and the controls are a tad tricky at first but everything in this game just works.
Enjoy crisp, powerful low-end audio with these Sony MDRXB50AP/L earbud headphones, which feature a bass duct design that provides optimal sound isolation. An integrated elecret condenser/omnidirectional microphone lets you chat hands-free.
I'm always skeptical of earbuds but after doing some research on the price that I was willing to spend, these are your go-to buds. Great low end but surprisingly crisp high end and mid-range, really rounds everything out. Good noise cancelling too when you find the best fit of the ear pieces they provide.
Del Toro is a master at his craft and his latest film just keeps adding to his legacy. Not only is this film superbly acted but the sets, costumes, and story hit on all cylinders. It's pegged a little more towards a chilling thriller but does have its scary moments. Perfect for a night in!
Even though Mr. Cage has struggled a bit recently with his film role choices, these two are part of his golden years. His duel roll in Adaptation is one for the ages but Red Rock West's gritty take on a mistaken hitman caper comes a great psychological thriller. Plus it's always fun to see Dennis Hopper when he's in a crazy character role.
Such an awesome homage to R.L. Stein. Jack Black is great & seeing all of the monsters come to life from my childhood was a joy. It's a fun watch that's surprisingly heartfelt.
Perfect cast, cinematography, direction, production design etc. I may be biased b/c this is a top five favorite of mine but it's just so much fun and massively re-watchable.
I was so happy that HTTYD 2 kept all of the intangibles of what made the 1st one so special. It's a solid sequel that even adds depth to the story & it's characters. Can't wait for the 3rd one!
Look, you may either love Zoolander or hate it. I however, love it. It has dated itself with some of the gags but overall, Stiller is still king when it comes to quirky and sometimes awkward comedy.
This release contains a two-pack of the animated fantasy adventure film How to Train Your Dragon and the direct to video sequel Legend of the BoneKnapper Dragon.
Hands down, one of DreamWorks best animated films. It nails everything. Storytelling & voice cast are top notch but it is also one of the most beautifully animated films of recent memory. Oh yea, kids love it too :)
An absolute gem of a film that has something for everyone. Funny, thrilling, fantastic special effects, top notch acting coupled with great casting choices and c'mon, who doesn't like Mars?
