Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

I just don’t get it. Took me several sit downs to plug through this slog. I didn’t mind the first one, the only reason I watching this is cause I try to watch all the Academy Awards films. I dug all the other entries but Robot Dreams and this. I don’t understand how people like this stuff. Not for me.

American Horror Story: Season 11

Barely got thru this. Company walked away bored during it. Most of my favourites from the typical ensemble AHS cast are gone and that was a big factor that always had me coming back.

This is probably my jumping off point for this show now. Was one of my favourite shows for the longest time but that over.

Electric Blue 14

This one’s been a glaring hole in my Michelle Bauer filmography viewing. I never thought I’d find a way to see this but amazingly found it online today. So… I set aside an hour and gave this a go. Dated a pretty much irrelevant in todays internet world. Michelle’s skit is perhaps five minutes long and while nice, kind of a let down when every other skit is longer. Oh well, I’ve seen this now, can check it off in Trakt, and move on. Michelle Bauer is still my waifu of all time tho.

AEW Double or Nothing: The Buy-In

Great match with NWA Champion Serena Deeb and Riho. Worth the watch.

Godzilla vs. Kong

They finally let the monsters be the stars of their own movies. I mean, don’t we all go to see Kaiju films to see struggling families going through divorces, their kids misbehaving, and filled with all kinds of lovely human drama?

Nope, and they’ve finally learnt. Let the humies support the Kaiju and GTFO.

Nice to see they are starting to stop filming in dark blue rainy nights for entire films too. Monster fights in the daylight? YES!

This is a 10 out of ten. Deserves to sit along with my millennium era TOHO Godzilla films.

Thank you.

The Beach House

I’d given up on this film as I was a hour in then the Junji Ito body horror intense gross stuff that physically made my stomach turn started. Also was nice to see a lead that resembled Misty Mundae. That’s never a bad thing. Won me back in the end. Pretty cool flick but I ain’t eating anything today.

Rambo: Last Blood

The last two Rambo films have been intense awesomeness. #lovedit Stallone’s just got it as a director. I love his new Rocky/Creed films as well. So good.

Happy Death Day 2U

Unlike the original, this one had no magic and lost its charm. It’s a meh from me.

Us

Act one meh, Act two fun, Act three once I realized WAY too early in the film, and saw just how this was WAY too telegraphed that this was another Occulus and every other doppleganger type film became lame . it’s a MEH from me.

Alita: Battle Angel

Another film I want to love, see, then realize it’s just the intro to yet another hopeful franchise. Doubtful we will ever see it’s conclusion.

Black Mirror: 3x03 Shut Up and Dance

Because they’ve had a couple of kickass episodes in the past I am plugging through these. But I just hated this episode. So bloody boring. I do hope another decent horrific one comes soon or I’m gonna bail on this stupid techie series. Thank you, next.

The Nun

I adore the Conjuring films. Thought the Annabelle films were lame. This was gonna be my tiebreaker... will this Universe these folk are building continue along the lines of lameness or greatness. Greatness it is!

The Haunting of Hill House: 1x01 Steven Sees a Ghost

Yeesh. One episode and I am out. I got better things to do than sit through this.

Doctor Who: 11x10 The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos

Was okay, but the Doc’s rambling and constant technobabble hit an all time annoyingly high this episode. Which they’d tone it down a bit and just do not explain every detail.

Doctor Who: 11x09 It Takes You Away

I’ve loved every episode this season, until now. This was their first big miss, utterly unoriginal and a snoozefest. Hope it’s a one and done and we can get back to greatness next week.

Doctor Who: 11x07 Kerblam!

Like an episode of Black Mirror. She needs to keep her sonic screwdriver in her pocket more. The whole show was her waving it to solve everything.

Black Mirror: Special 1 White Christmas

Have loved all the episodes up to this point. Needlessly long, some interesting concepts, but overall too much of a bore. I’ll revisit any of the season one and two episodes... but never this special again.

10 Cloverfield Lane

What the? I HATED Cloverfield, but this movie was awesome! Why even link yourself to that garbage first movie? It kept me away from watching this for... well until now. Terrible marketing decision in my opinion but oh well, the next movie came out on Netflix which kicked me into watching this series. Glad I did. Cool flick.

Cloverfield

Since this seems to be a franchise that never goes away, I decided to try to get thru this as I’ve heard the other films are not handycam Shot. Well, I hated this film. I can’t stand hand held cameras. Then again, I’d never have attempted even a watch if I hadn’t been told the other films are not shot using hand held cameras. My completest nature forced me to get thru this one first. I don’t get how people can watch this crap. Then again, I don’t get how people can watch movie on their phones either #grumpyoldman.

My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman: 1x02 You Be the Newsman, I'll Be Liz Taylor

Clooney’s nowhere near as compelling a character as Obama so this one was a little draggy, and less interesting. Nice to see he is a decent seeming guy though. Learned a little but it’s gotta be a tough deal being sandwiched between Nobel Prize winners. Still, that’s a great reflection on the quality of this show.

Altered Carbon

Boring, mystery dreck disguised as sci-fi to try to lure Blade Runner fans. #ABANDONSHOW #ONEEPISODEISENOUGH

Van Helsing

Made it through the fu\irst handful of this show until I had to turn it off.. standard, cheap, flat looking Canadian Sci-fi aesthetic that I hate. Could easily have been called Forever Knight 2.0 if they weren’t trying to tie this to the comic book boom. Kind of embarrassing Canadian TV has progressed so little visually since that old Toronto fang show.

Gamera: The Guardian of the Universe

Yeah, accidentally watched Gamera 2 before this one, after seeing this I now get some more of that story. This flick rocked. Gamera is awesome. Giant flying turtle monster fights for Tokyo vs giant man eating bird monsters. Lots of destruction, bullet trains, Tokyo Dome, and neat stuff.

Battle Royale

This film was recommended to me long ago during my video store running days by a customer of mine that shared the same tastes in flicks. I never got around to it though, so many movies, so little time. This past year I found myself at Ai-Kon and there was a ‘Battle Royale’ panel which, due to that long ago reccomendation I attended. After asking many questions, I decided I needed to read the book first and try this out. Just finished the book today and watched this film. The book, was probably petty original until Hunger Games stole its momentum (and questionably plagiarized this), felt a little young adultish, with some gore added. This movie was more adult with even more gore and lots of fun. An enjoyable ride... though I think without the book’s background on the characters this could be a bit of a mess as it jumps everywhere. Luckily the book readers can fill in the blanks. Glad I did it in this order!

Deadman Wonderland

Some decent stuff in here, but the fucking lame emo cry baby lead ruined this. Did they break a record for a characters self pity parties?

Gappa, the Triphibian Monster

Enjoyable kaiju film with big giant blue birds as the monsters. Annoyingly family friendly but that’s usually the case with many of these older monsters flicks. I’d like to see a subtitled copy as the dub is grating.
