So let’s begin by diving into the preliminary box set that introduces the campaign and its basic setup. The theme of Planescape, instead, is on the war of beliefs and philosophies in a setting where such things have the power to change reality itself! It is also one of the few settings of 2nd edition where the emphasis is most certainly not on killing baddies and looting their corpses, or even just on mere survival. This was remarkable in part because prior to Planescape, the Multiverse was essentially off limits to all but the highest level players thanks to a combination of deadly environments and being populated by some of the deadliest monsters in the game, to say nothing of the insanely powerful gods that called these realms their home. Not only did Planescape update the information from that supplement, but it created a whole campaign setting that could be played from 1st level to 20th and beyond. The last time the Multiverse was covered was in the 1st Edition Planescape was set in the vast cosmology that had been built up over the years that linked all of TSR’s settings together - the aptly named Multiverse.

Hamill has the unenviable task of going up against Brad Dourif’s franchise-defining performance as Chucky, but this version is distinctly different-Hamill’s Chucky is more like a whimsical child (he borrows the soft, high-pitched voice from his work in “ Brigsby Bear”), and doesn't have the venomous misogyny of Dourif's incarnation. The jokes in the script don’t always work, but the film has a strong enough sense of humor that the movie can bank entire sequences with its humor, which helps its more insidious passages stand out even more in comparison. They also help create a little apartment world of lonely people-it’s that not different from Andy’s pain, or even that of Chucky’s. Regarding the latter, Plaza and Tyree Henry bring their deadpan mastery to make “Child’s Play” funny in a surprising way without being campy. “Child’s Play” is one of those rare modern horror remakes that is more inspired than it is soulless, a feeling you get from its grand finale, or even casting. In a larger sense, "Child's Play" creates a fun nightmare out of the “ Toy Story” fantasy-that it’s horrifying to imagine a sentient play-thing like Woody would find a sole purpose in wanting to please their masters, especially if the toy is themselves obsessive and has no sense of boundaries. Here, it’s a kid’s psychological torment that adults are then punished and murdered for. The other manner is that it’s clearly a product of the era that has seen big success with “ It” and “Stranger Things,” basing its horror partly around the unlikelihood that lead kids like Andy and his friends Pugg and Falyn could die. But while this “Child’s Play” starts to feel like another technophobic movie, it gets tension from trying to be slightly more believable as to how a Chucky could happen-no voodoo spells and soul transference here. The original story by Don Mancini gets a 2019 update in two big ways-Chucky is now the product of an Amazon-like group called Kaslan, and is able to connect to nearly anything with a Wi-Fi signal, including TVs, other toys, cars, drones, etc. Instead, he makes Andy’s life hell, and as bodies start to pile up, Andy becomes frantic to get anyone to believe him that it’s the doll who is unleashing such carnage. It’s when people start making Andy unhappy (like Karen's boyfriend Shane ) that Chucky unleashes the carnage you expect, although this time it’s out of love-he wants to protect Andy, so much as to own him. Eventually, Chucky helps Andy befriend two neighboring fellow kids, Pugg ( Ty Consiglio) and Falyn ( Beatrice Kitsos), because Chucky can do goofy things like repeat naughty words. But it’s Chucky (voiced by Mark Hamill) who persists to be in Andy’s life, a doll designed to be your friend no matter what, and they bond during a very Pixar-lookin' montage where Andy shows Chucky how to brush his teeth, or play a board game. In the winking attitude of the movie, Karen was able to get one of the dolls from her department store job because its “eyes were turning red,” and Andy doesn’t even like the present-he’s a little too old for it, and there’s already a sequel on the horizon, the Buddi 2. Directed by Lars Klevberg and written by Tyler Burton Smith, this version tells of a tween named Andy ( Gabriel Bateman) who receives a “Buddi” doll from his mother Karen ( Aubrey Plaza), because he seems only able to make friends with the guy down the hall, Detective Mike ( Brian Tyree Henry). I looked his name up and all I got was a missing person search. There were texts warning him about car crashes around where he was and he ignored her. First I decided to check his mother's texts. Saying messages from the original owner's mother and girlfriend. They said, they would be able to factory reset it. I had tech support scheduled the other day. There was supposed to be a way to factory reset all of the data, but I couldn't find it anywhere. But, I searched throughout all of the settings, and there was no factory reset, I even tried using the trick where it opens a menu to erase data. I couldn't make it out, so I figured, Eh, it's probably nothing. But when I went to settings, something felt off. This phone, was relatively old, so, I ended up going to the settings to reset the data on it, because, I did not want anything to happen. The data from the last owner, had not been erased. It was a rough few hundred bucks, but that's normal for an IPhone. It was cheap, but I was left curious why no one had bought it yet. I had no service on it, so I was left to buy a completely new one. I was riding the ferris wheel, and I dropped my phone while trying to get a perfect picture. That was the summer before the Pandemic, of course. Every summer, I go to the brockton fair with my friends, and have a good festival. But whenever I "lose" it, I wake up the next day, and it's right next to me. Normally, I would be making this on a phone, but I feel like my phone knows more about me than I do.
