Is "your adult life post-2000" aimed at Millennials? Because as a GenXer 1995 is still solidly in my adult life.
Did you know that Road House was panned when it came out and has a 39% on Rotten Tomatoes? I know it doesn't count for this game, but what a travesty.
"The Spy Who Dumped Me". *Way* more fun than it had any business being.
Mortal Engines was pretty good, and Battleship was enjoyably cheesy fun.

Ratchet and Clank was a pretty good movie and I enjoyed all of it. It gets a 21% on rotten tomatoes.

I think "Gold" is better than RT's score would suggest. It's not as good as "The Founder" but I think it is as good as "Blow" and they're all cut from the same cloth.

I liked the A-Team. Fight me. (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/browse/dvd-streaming-all?minTomato=0&maxTomato=49&services=amazon;hbo_go;itunes;netflix_iw;vudu;amazon_prime;fandango_now&genres=1;2;4;5;6;8;9;10;11;13;18;14&sortBy=tomato)

Anon was rather enjoyable. Could've used some help but I still liked it. Bright also needs help but is overall still enjoyable. Not saying either of them are *great* movies, but I like them.
Sort of cheating: My Little Pony The Movie, because it makes my daughter happy. Also, it passes the Bechedel Test with flying colors!

"I wasn't a big fan of 3 or Salvation, so I'm trying to resist getting my hopes up too much for Dark Fate, but it's hard. I'm just a sucker for humans and robots traveling through time to try to drive trucks into each other, apparently."

Regarding the upcoming Halloween party, Loki is to be reminded that bobbing for apples is a time-honored tradition that does not require modification. Specifically, the apples do not need a “sporting chance” and should not be enchanted to bite back.]
Needs a few more tweaks and I probably should color the side a full solid color, but I like how he’s turning out. The full body can be seen here, though it’s outdated.

Ken’s tests were very detailed, going through twelve chargers from Apple, Samsung, HP, Monoprice, Belkin, and some unbranded counterfeits, measuring their power stability, quality, efficiency, and other stats.
The short version of his findings: Official chargers are the best, off-brand chargers from manufacturers like Belkin and KMS are okay, and knockoffs are a $2 safety hazard. If you’re looking to buy an official charger from Apple or Samsung, buy it directly from them to make sure you don’t get a knockoff. And, if you’re trying to save a few bucks by buying a third-party charger, just know that it’s a clear case of “you get what you pay for” (though our favorite cheap cable retailer, Monoprice, seemed to be an exception to that rule).
We would have loved to see more off-brand chargers tested, but it gives a pretty clear look into what you get for your money. Hit the link to read more.
