    I’m sure everyone knows this by now, but I remember being surprised by how much lore is apparently in Five Nights at Freddy’s when the movie came out. I had no idea that there were whole YouTube channels devoted to uncovering the lore and solving the mysteries. I always figured it was just a jump scare game for kids and streamers, and that’s what it seemed like the one time I watched someone live stream themselves playing the VR version before (must have been the first game before they started all the lore stuff, I guess).

      Relatable. I had heard of it and wanted to play it, and after looking up strategies I was dropped down the rabbit hole. It’s one of my favourite games when it comes to lore and I did quite enjoy the games, even if I’ve heard that the dev is a horrible person.

    On Cinema at the Cinema. Tim Heidecker and Gregg Turkington have been doing this bizarre fake movie review show for over a decade now. Every year their season culminates in a live broadcast Oscar special that is a train wreck. They’ve also had their characters produce really shitty movies in universe that us, as the audience get to view. There are so many jokes that build up on the years of abuse each character hurls at the other. One season there was even a full mock courtroom trial where Tim was being tried for the wrongful death of 19 people that attended a music festival he put on.

    Most of the early seasons are available on YouTube, and there is even a guide @ oncinematimeline.com, but the newer seasons require a subscription to view. Really worth it more than any other streaming service.

    I can’t recommend it enough.
