The True Failure

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/10/02

Today on thbre 5: Sony announced a remaster of classic PC game Deus Ex in their latest State Of Play event. I didn't pay much attention to it since I already have a wonderfully modded version of it on PC, but then I started seeing a lot of anger around it online. I looked into it, and while I don't think it;s as universally bas as others do, it did make a fatal mistake by getting what I would consider the most important part of the visuals completely wrong.

Why Are You Doing This?

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/10/01

Today on the 5: The YouTube-centric creator community has been in turmoil over view counts dropping, with competing theories and incomplete explanations still bouncing all over. Threaded within the coverage on this are the increasing AI tools YouTube is encouraging creators to use. The more of these they add, the more I wonder why people using them to their max effect even make videos.

No Retreat No Surrender 2 Retro Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/30

Today on the 5: For one of our commentary films this week, Lando and I watched a 1987 action film titled No Retreat No Surrender 2. The movie is a "sorta sequel" featuring a pair of incredible martial artists, one being Cynthia Rothrock. Those two elements resulted in this being a bit it of a complicated review for me.

Crying Blue Sky Retro Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/29

Today on the 5: For one of our commentary films this week, Lando and I watched a 1983 folk horror film titled Crying Blue Sky (or Eyes Of Fire, but don't watch that version). We weren't sure what to expect from this movie, but it ended up being one that we enjoyed and will stick with us for a while.

Forget The Haters!

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/25

Today on the 5: I saw an article earlier over on Ars Technica that was warning people away from using AI tools like ChapGPT to pick stocks for them. I think these people are just afraid of technology, and I say people should do as much as they can with these tools!

Battle Royal High School Retro Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/24

Today on the 5: For one of our communal movie commentaries this week, the random movie wheel landed on 1987's Battle Royal High School. What we didn't know beforehand is this is an adaptation of a multi-volume manga of the same name trying to squeeze a lot of story into a OVA. It also has some delightfully bad dubbing, fantastic hand drawn animation and a story so far off the rails we honesatly never knew where it would go next!

The Junk Algorithm

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/23

Today on the 5: In the wake of the latest round of YouTube screwing over the creators who make it successful, a familiar yet utterly garbage justification came up again: the platform simply cannot handle moderation in any way but deeply flawed automation. It occurred to me that if this is true, it does not place Google's technical prowess in a particularly posiitive light.

The Purple Ball Retro Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/22

Today on the 5: I came across a Soviet science fiction fantasy film from 1988 titled The Purple Ball, and I felt like it might be worth watching with Lando. It ended up being a very entertaining movie with some wild special effects and wildly imaginative storytelling. Best part, you can watch it for free right now!

Download: Devil Circuit Retro Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/18

Today on the 5: One of our selections for a comminual movie this week was one neither of us had every heard of 1992's Download: Devil Circuit. For a movie about an amazingly horny monk chasing after an exotic dancer while battling an evil corporation, it's both extremely funny and suprisingly restrained!

Steele Justice Retro Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/17

Today on the 5: Via an accident of me picking the wrong movie Lando watched Steele Justice, a Martin Kove Vietnam revenge action film from 1987. It ended up being a happy accident as we got a farily entertaining movie with a few noticeable flaws that left us wondering why Kove didn't have a higher profile career.

The Shrouds Review

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/16

Today on the 5: While I was sick with COVID I decided to watch David Cronenberg's latest film, 2024's The Shrouds. The movie has seen a very mixed response, which is typical for Cronenberg. What sets this movie apart is how clear a way of working through his wife's death this film is, and that gives it a weight far different than any of his other work.

A Quality Of Writing

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/15

Today on the 5: For many years I avoided reading work by Hunter S. Thompson because I got the sense that the mythology of the man eclipsed the reality of his life. After seeing a video about his work that made a good argument as to why that might be a mistake, I tried reading a few of his books.

Alien: Earth Review (Part 1)

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/09

Today on the 5: Lando and I have watched the first 4 episodes of 2025's Alien: Earth series. We were both skeptical that it would be much beyond another forgettable IP product, but that cynicism disappeared pretty quickly. This review covers the first half of the 8 episode season, and while there's no guarantee things won't go south this is a boldly original take on a nearly 50 year old franchise.

Service Worth Spotlighting

Ozone Nightmare ·

2025/09/08

Today on the 5: In the past I've talked about my absolutely amazing Oakley Juliet X-Metal sunglesses, which are now well over 20 years old. While the frame itself is in remarkably great shape, the lenses are finally losing their original coatings. As Oakey no longer supplies spare parts or servicing for them, I tried out Revant lenses. After an ordering error on my part, Revant delivered some of the best customer service I'd had in quite a while. I felt like I needed to spotlight that since most of
