3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Little Women’:

1. I didn’t love it. I didn’t hate it. Wasn’t familiar with the story. Went in for the cast, came out reaffirming that this just isn’t my kind of film.

2. The movie struggled to hold my attention for the first half, but proceeded to grab me in towards the end.

3. I wish I liked it more. The cast is superb.

Yet another superb show that Netflix neglected and discarded.

Such a quality, quirky series with a fun take on the tired zombie genre, ending on a cliffhanger that’ll never get resolved. I thought it was FANTASTIC.

Between, this, Sense8, and The OA, I’ve lost respect for Netflix as a streaming service. I may still watch their other programming, but I’ll cheer their competitors on even harder.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘1917’:

1. How the hell did they even film this? A cinematic achievement, indeed. The scope of it all is insane.

2. The two young actors were fantastic. Cared about them and their fate almost immediately.

3. Other reviews mention the film lacking despite its technical marvels. I wholeheartedly disagree. The storyline may have been simple, but I found it compelling, emotional and inspiring. And the score was fantastic. It wasn’t only filmed well.

Now I understand why Phoebe’s winning all these awards.

Such a lovely, touching, heartbreaking and hilarious series. I want to see more so bad, but at least we know that she knows she’s loved.

Bravo.

One of THE most original, emotional, underrated series I have ever seen. Netflix choosing not to continue the story is an absolute TRAVESTY. For a show that inspires belief, faith and hope, I believe I’ll still see this story told eventually.

If you’re thinking about checking it out despite its untimely cancellation, do it. Yes... it’s complex and deep, but you’ll be all the better for it once the final credits roll.

See ya again in another dimension, OA. (But I’m still holding out in this one.) :blue_heart:

‘Legion’ is full of absurdity - which I believe is completely and utterly intentional. It’s unlike anything else on television and its highest points are pretty spectacular, in all its originality and creativity. The show in itself is a piece of art, not always understood but awfully fun to look at. Sometimes.

When it’s not fun, it’s often confusing, seemingly headed in no direction at all, and full of side characters that lack a substantial amount of depth. There’s one character who isn’t introduced until the final season whom I found more compelling than those who were there since the series’ debut.

In the end, I appreciate ‘Legion’ for what it was - even though I’m not entirely sure what that is.

That’s ‘Legion’ to me. 6/10

I’ve had my qualms about how the wackiness of this series can be so wasteful and detrimental to the story. Here, it was absolute genius.

The best episode of the entire series, so far.

The beginning of the end, but back and fantastic as always! I’m sure gonna miss this family.

Frustrating, yet solid, season finale. Actually looking forward to see where this goes.

Dwight: “Still filmin’, Al?”

YUP. Yes, she most certainly is.

When. Will. These. Tapes. Go. Away?!

Otherwise, not a horrible episode. I liked the idea of the Gulch, but now who knows.

I am SO.. so very sick of Althea and her stupid :pound_symbol:%&@! tapes. It’s beyond overdone. She could be such an interesting character if she stopped dwelling on such nonsense. It does NOTHING for the story. Ugh.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Won’t You Be My Neighbor?’:

1. It was heartwarming to see someone of that time, who might have been considered “square” or “old-fashioned,” be so wonderfully accepting of so many different types of people.
2. It wouldn’t be easy to be a Fred Rogers in this age, but what the world would be if there were more like him.
3. This was an enjoyable, bittersweet documentary.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood’:

1. I need to watch the Fred Rogers documentary now.
2. I was expecting a little more, but it was a cute film with a refreshing message.
3. Only Tom Hanks could play Fred Rogers and Walt Disney.

FINALLY. A quality episode that piqued my interest.

Diggin’ the addition of the rabbi. Enjoyed him from the start.

Also, Mo Collins is tremendously underutilized. I’d watch her drive a truck and ramble on for an entire hour.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’:

1. Glad that they finally showed Leia using her Force powers. I know some people weren’t fans of that scene, but it had to happen eventually.
2. The Yoda/Luke scene was perfect. Really brought back those ‘Empire’ vibes.
3. After my 10-film Star Wars movie marathon, I’m finally ready for ‘Rise of Skywalker’.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’:

1. Reviving such an epic saga from the 70s/80s ain’t no easy feat -- and they’ve succeeded here.
2. I was expecting more from Kylo Ren. His lack of menace is one of my biggest criticisms.
3. Rey is a great character and her force-fetching the lightsaber from the snow was perfection.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Return of the Jedi’:

1. Contrary to popular opinion, I enjoyed the Ewoks.
2. It was particularly great seeing Luke and Leia’s bond strengthen.
3. It looks like Anakin brought balance to the force after all.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘The Empire Strikes Back’:

1. Films don’t get much more :asterisk_symbol:epic:asterisk_symbol: than this. After this rewatch, I completely understand how this is hailed one of the best films of all time.
2. Somebody told me recently that the original films don’t hold up anymore, especially for a new generation. I highly disagree.
3. Seeing this in a theater - in 1980 - must’ve been magnificent.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Star Wars’:

1. Thank you, George Lucas.
2. I find it so incredible how much the prequel films - as well as Solo and Rogue One - provide SO much needed backstory to this original classic from the 70s. Others may disagree, but I think they did a damn good job.
3. I’m in awe of the legacy this little film started.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith’:

1. As many have said already, this is certainly the best of the trilogy films. Perfect bridge to the classics.
2. Ian McDiarmid deserves an award for what he brought to Palpatine.
3. Could another actor have done Anakin better? Probably. But I’m a fan of Hayden and I think he did a great job.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace’:

1. As a rewatch to prepare for ‘The Rise of Skywalker’, I was properly amped up. Not as horrible as it was always made out to be.
2. Its biggest fault, to me, was the lack and loss of Darth Maul.
3. Ian McDiarmid and John Williams are legends. (Duel of the Fates is everything.)

As a big ‘Walking Dead’ supporter, I hate to admit it... but, this was - hands down - one of the worst episodes EVER in this universe.

I am OVER Al and her :pound_symbol:%$&ing stories. Nobody cares anymore. Toss the camera aside. Storytime is over. I could barely stay awake.

With a decline in viewership, it’s time to reinvigorate your audience. This is not how that’s done.
