I was born in the late 80s, raised in the 90s, slowly matured in the 2000s, and I don't think I could've asked for a better decade to be raised in. The Internet started to get going, WWF (before it became WWE) was in its prime, Pokemon hit the nation, Dragon Ball Z was a … Continue reading Nostalgia for the 90s Entertainment Culture, Intro

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets review
Rated 3/5 Eh, this movie is just ok. It's entertaining enough and all, it looks great, but it's not something all that memorable to me. But it does make me interested in checking out the comic series Valerian and Laureline (started all the way back in 1967, and ended in 2010). I haven't read the … Continue reading Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets review
Dune Club notes part 3
Continuing from part 2 of the Dune Book Club, run by Comic Book Girl 19. Source Pages 60-105. Notes before the Twitch Stream Page 106: For the others, we can say that Paul Muad'Dib learned rapidly because his first training was in how to learn.

Dunkirk review
Rated: 3/5 This is one of a very few select theatrical films coming out this year that I've been eager to see. The number of films I'm willing to shell out money for (let alone time) has been dwindling over the past couple years, and this year has accelerated that trend for me. Christopher Nolan … Continue reading Dunkirk review

I sort of grew up with that film in the same way I grew … Continue reading Dune Club notes, part 2
It Comes at Night, and The Adventures of the American Rabbit dual review
So some bad news and good news first. The bad news, I got fired from my full-time job. The good news, I can blog more. And I wanted to do 2 films, not because of the special occasion, but because one of these films is so damn bleak that I needed something ridiculously cheery to … Continue reading It Comes at Night, and The Adventures of the American Rabbit dual review
13th review
Rated: 2/5 America. Home to 5% of the world's population. America, which has 25% of the world's total prison population. The highest rate of incarceration in the world. For a country so great that illegals would want to flock to it, one would wonder why it is that the prison population is so high (or did … Continue reading 13th review
Dune Club notes, part 1
So it begins. I'm participating in Comic Book Girl 19's Dune Club, where every week participants are to read the pages assigned, and discuss them every Sunday until we've completed the novel. Once this is done, I plan on reviewing the Dune movie and mini-series. I'll be keeping my notes and thoughts on each section … Continue reading Dune Club notes, part 1

Discussions on Racism
So it begins. Been getting feedback from my Do the Right Thing review in my entry on letterboxd, and I'm hoping the same thing will happen on the other platforms the review is linked to. I'm going to post the back-and-forth discussions I've been having. Because I've learned from experience that if I end up … Continue reading Discussions on Racism
