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.)

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Doctor Sleep’:

1. This film totally stands on its own and as a satisfying sequel to a classic. Not an easy task.
2. The Shining throwbacks gave me life.
3. I loved the villain and Abra was badass.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Creep 2’:

1. Like the first one, it’s difficult to tell where the story is gonna go.
2. I was surprised at how this felt completely different from its predecessor, while successfully continuing the same story. Less creepy, more psychological.
3. I agree that these are some of the best, more original “found footage” films.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘The Shining’:

1. I just wanna give Shelley Duvall a hug.
2. The score is probably the biggest star of this film.
3. Some of my fave parts were with the old-timey side characters that remind of The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.

My Review of ‘Misery’ in 3 Sentences:

1. After this rewatch, I was reminded even more how incredible Kathy Bates is.

2. After this rewatch, it dawned on me that Paul Sheldon handled everything rather calmly the entire time.

3. This will always be one of the best Stephen King films.

My Review of ‘The Lighthouse’ in 3 Sentences:

1. I feel like I just watched a two-hour bar fight.

2. Even great cinematography can’t save a movie.

3. The farting was absolutely unnecessary.

My Review of ‘Joker’ in 3 Sentences:

1. This is the most terrifying Joker I’ve ever seen.

2. This is the saddest Joker I’ve ever seen.

3. I wouldn’t be opposed to Joaquin reprising this for Pattinson’s Batman.

My Review of ‘Head Count’ in 3 Sentences:

1. This was a clever little horror movie totally worth a rewatch.

2. This kind of storytelling is what I was hoping for from the new ‘Twilight Zone’.

3. Clearly you don’t need a budget or insane amounts of gore to be effective and super creepy.

My Review of ‘Mulholland Drive’ in Three Sentences:

1. I tend to appreciate Lynch’s films more AFTER I watch them.

2. I prefer to enjoy 2+ hour films WHILE I watch them.

3. Fascinating take on dreams/fantasies aside, I doubt I’ll ever sit through this one again.

I can appreciate the cinematography, the score, and a big ball of weird being left up for a whole lotta interpretation. But I found this film to be more frustrating than entertaining.

I finally decided to check Eraserhead out after seeing it at the tippy top of a bunch of lists and receiving recommendations from friends. In the end, I just wasn’t as satisfied as so many other viewers were.
