It’s basically the end of the summer but here we can squeeze 3 more summery music videos before we move on. If you want even more to not forget the season or to you it won’t finish until September then here are some more. As always I try to recommend either some cool Music, Music Videos or nostalgic songs, sometimes all of those at the same time but not always.

Miesha Tate, Cris Cyborg, Holly Holm of Mixed Martial Arts fame were in a movie called Fight Valley Knockaround Girls. Being a fan of Women’s MMA and the fighters starring in it I decided to check it out. Quality cinema was not expected from this movie but instead just a kick ass film to pass the time.
You kind of set yourself up for the type of movie and expect different things from different movies. Going in to see Star Wars will have different expectations than say Dinosaur Island and even if one is the better movie b-films can be more enjoyable. Sadly this wasn’t the case with Fight Valley.
I wanted to like this movie and huffed at the terrible scores that it had since they rarely showcase my thoughts on a specific movie. But man did this movie try its hardest to make those horrible scores feel earned. I wasn’t expecting good acting by any means but most lines were just so cringy.
The actual generic plot you’d expect from the movie is somehow worse than what you’d expect since you just don’t care about any of the so called twists that they try to do nor the motivation for any of the characters. The movie tries so hard to make you feel like this is some tough shit you’re watching and that makes it even harder to watch than an 8th grader doing his best to look cool to High School kids.
Normally I can look past most stuff like that if it at least gives us something fun that other movies can’t deliver. In this case the fights, and a well choreographed fight is all I really needed. But even then the movie does no favors to itself and misses the one opportunity it had to have some redeeming value, even the lesbian fan service was poorly done. So while the movie had all the potential to be a great bad movie and failed at least I hope we get something like this done better in the future.

Rick and Morty might be the best Back to the Future inspired thing that has ever come out and we know that because of the origin of the show. Before the show was made it started as a Back to the Future parody and it evolved from there. The show also took a lot of inspiration from Justin Roiland’s other animated shorts. I guess technically all these shorts are in continuity with the actual show since there are an infinite number of possibilities in the Rick and Morty universe.
Last time I compiled pretty much all the “extra” Rick and Morty shorts or clips from commercials and what not that the show had. To better unerstand where some of the jokes came from here are almost all the previous shorts that Roiland worked on before Rick and Morty including The Real Animated Adventures of Doc and Mharti which ended up being a sort of pilot to the show. But we also see concepts for Dog World and ideas or characters that eventually made it to the show like with House of Cosbys or Mr. Jelly Bean. The quality varies within the shorts and it’s not the best work but you can see where the humor began being constructed after.

Reading tweets in French can really be helpful in the learning progress, or at least that’s what I’ve been able to tell with me personally. It helps that there is a built in translator to help you out when you don’t understand so you can just click when you’re overwhelmed by a tweet. I already posted about some tweeter accounts to follow but I was asked to post more so here are other ones that I personally follow and have been for at least a few months.
Just like last time I will divide the accounts into three sections: Grammar, News and Fun. Grammar, being essential giving you mostly tips, quizes or infogrpahics. News, which are accounts that give out local or world news. Fun, mostly accounts that tweet cool stuff that I find cool in french.

There is a Professor Layton online game of “real world” puzzles called Layton’s Mystery Journey: Real World Puzzle Solving or Layton World for short that launched to help promote Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy. Instead of searching the site you can come here and find every related article here.
For more information about it you can click here. But for those currently solving it or once the game is no longer online here we have an archive or the puzzles and solutions to each and every one. I’ve been covering the game so far but I got an email that it was a little messy to find previous puzzles since there are so many. So here you will find here is the links to each article/puzzle to make it easier to find what you want and also an FAQ of what I want to do with the archive.
This post will be edited regularly with the new puzzles/articles related to Layton World are added to the site and once the game is over everything will be archived here. If you have any questions you can email me sdp@miscrave.com or tweet me.

FAQ
Why don’t you update immediately after the puzzle is live?
I prefer to have a “batch” of puzzles in a post instead of one per post so it’s easier to archive. I began with batches of 4 but to not fall so far behind I also do batches of 3 and I”m generally only 2 days or so behind the actual game. If you prefer each puzzle to be featured as soon as it’s available I could do it, just contact me and if there’s enough demand then I will do it.
When is the site updated?
The site is updated every day but Layton Puzzles have always been posted on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I’ve been trying to keep it that way successfully but it’s not a rule, there may be updates on other days and maybe not necessarily Layton updates on those days.
There is a mistake/typo/broken picture in Puzzle _____ !
Contact me with the puzzle and problem so I can fix it.
Can you do _______?
Sure, if you want me to do anything special just email me or contact me through social media and if there’s enough people or if I like the idea I’m totally up for it!
What will the non-puzzle article be about?
I want to archive everything that was done for the real world puzzle game, including story, experience, promotions etc. As much as I can re-create the “feel” of the game.
Why is there no upper case Z puzzle?
I don’t know, they decided to not complete the upper case alphabet puzzles to annoy us forever.
What’s your favorite Professor Layton game?
