This feels wrong for me.

Hey, it’s been only a few days since my update post, but things have taken a sharp beeline since then. I won’t explain every detail, but what I will say is that I am financially struggling. To say I’m even struggling there is upsetting enough. Sure, brush along this post, I don’t care. But for those that can:

I NEED HELP.

I’m serious on this matter. Voice commissions may be the only thing I can do without any further preparation, but at least it’s something. So, for those who want to have a personalised message as heard by me, you can start by… well, buying me a coffee. This, while being a temporary setback, is distressing me enough to a point where I might actually get dizzy, or worse yet pass out, not due to my diabetes at that.

If you can help, please do. If you can’t, don’t! You shouldn’t be putting yourself in the same financial situation I’m in currently because you feel like you should. However, whether or not you can help me, at least share this blog post, or even my Ko-fi, which I linked above earlier. It’s the least you can do for me.

It's been a while. Where have I been?

So, You've read the title. Where have I been?

Well, to be honest, I've been focused on getting myself back on track with everything in my personal life. Alongside the fact that my PC still lacks a motherboard. I will try to push out content still, however, for the time being, YouTube/@FluuiBum will be silent, meaning that my Fortnite Ch.2 Remix video will end up being cancelled. I didn't expect this, but I have been hunting for a motherboard that I can end up getting which works with the AMD chipset. If I have to, then I'll resort to upgrading my CPU as well to a later-gen Ryzen. But that will be a side quest for now.

What about YT/FluuiIRL?

Well, like I said earlier, I'll still push out content. Or, at least, try to. Currently, I have two videos planned and one I need to wrap up and prepare for uploading. After that, nothing yet. I'll have to see if I'll be able to get a camera that can clip onto my shirt. Or better yet, something that I can wear as a necklace. Either can work, I just need to figure out which would be better.

Will anything change?

In the future, yes. But for now, this is where I stand.

“A Minecraft Movie”: The under-wolf that critics cant mine to craft a good review about.

Being crowned is a complete stretch, but consider that I had spent $5 on a Dolby Cinema ticket.

Ever since I first picked up Minecraft, I had one hope: a video game movie based on Minecraft. Little did I know that years later, that hope would become a reality.

Unfortunately, critics had nothing really good to say about A Minecraft Movie. There is one thing that I am upset about, but I won’t spoil that until the end. So first, let’s get our Steve faces on, and yearn for the mines of my honest thoughts.

I… AM STEVE.

This singular line by Jack Black had accumulated a ton of memes surrounding it. Even the cinemas wooped and hollered when this iconic line hit the silver screens. We would follow that with another hit. CHICKEN JOCKEY! This line also had people going ballistic when it hit the silver screens. But, enough with the lines.

CREATIVITY IN THIS WORLD IS KEY TO SURVIVAL.

Minecraft has a huge focus for creativity while also surviving, so this line isn’t far off from wrong. My first memory of a Minecraft spark was in, get this, a creative world. That ended up in me building my skins for the fun of it. I even made some sonic-themed character skins that people could equip. That spark has mostly fizzled out but I blame my PC’s death on that. Minecraft was quintessentially the getaway for me… up until 2021, where I picked up Rocket League again.

WE’RE READY. LET’S GO SAVE THE OVERWORLD!

Now, what is my rating of A Minecraft Movie? Well, on my rating scale, I determine a few factors, and A Minecraft Movie flipped every lever and was able to power enough redstone to reach my Nether-ending spark. MY RATING OF A MINECRAFT MOVIE (ON A SCALE OF 10):

8.4/10

It really, really impressed me. There is one set of scenes that feel… off… compared to the mainline of the movie, but aside from that, I too can scream the iconic “CHICKEN JOCKEY!” and be proud. Additional points for the reference to a mod for the game.

WE MINE, THEN WE CRAFT.

Now, I crowned this movie. Why? A Minecraft Movie didn’t have any scenes where I felt uncomfortable and had to leave the room until the scene played out. That’s compared to the critically acclaimed Sonic The Hedgehog 3, where I did leave the room during one scene.

I liked this movie. You may as well, as long as you can be fine with a few caveats.

The Ramble Station is live!

Apparently I removed the post by accident. Oops.

You may know me as a rabbit that likes to ramble a bit. Go figure, I have a ramble channel in my Discord server (which I totally didn't steal the idea from tetryyn. Totally.) and I sometimes go there for any reason imaginable.

I had recieved a suggestion to try blogging from someone on Discord (Coincidence? I think NOT!) and after sitting on the idea for a bit, I decided to take that idea on. Now, I'm here!
