Not the official poster. Rated: 3 / 5 Antiwhite level: 2 / 5 So I've reviewed the second and third films in this franchise, both of which I enjoyed (as well as the first film). But I was worried that the franchise was going to suffer some serious fatigue after the previous one. The 2nd … Continue reading John Wick 4: Chapter 4 (2023) thoughts

The Shield (2002-2008) thoughts
Rated: 4 / 5 Anti-whiteness: 1.5 / 5 This show created a lot of misconceptions for me back in the day. Because I watched the first season (and a half) of this series back when it first came out, I was under the impression shows in general were more anti-PC back in the day than … Continue reading The Shield (2002-2008) thoughts
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) thoughts
Rated: 4 / 5 "Kidnap the Sandy Claws, see what we will see. Lock him in a cage and then, throw away the key." I never appreciated this film as much as I wanted to back in the day. I knew it was visually unique with the creature designs and animation. I knew half the … Continue reading The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) thoughts
The Batman (2022) thoughts
Rated: 1.5 / 5 Wokeness: 4 / 5 "It's one of the best Batman films yet," they said. "Exceeds all expectations," they said. "Finally, a live-action Batman movie that utilizes actual detective-work," they said. "What a load of shit," I say. This movie is everything I thought it was going to be. Woke as fuck, … Continue reading The Batman (2022) thoughts
Magic (1978) and Pin (1988) brief thoughts
Both films rated: 2.5 / 5 These types of movies suffer from the exact same problem, at least as far as my personal enjoyment goes. They're both about a socially awkward guy, bordering on crazy, who has talent to some degree; more-so in Magic, since the guy is as good a magician as he is … Continue reading Magic (1978) and Pin (1988) brief thoughts
Top Gun: Maverick (2022) thoughts
Ignore the incorrect release date. Rated: 3.5 / 5 Wokeness: 2.5 / 5 I thought it would be another 5-8 years before films of this quality started coming out again. Films with honest-to-God effort behind them. Sure that effort isn't seen in the story or character department, at least beyond my standards of B-movie fare; … Continue reading Top Gun: Maverick (2022) thoughts
Rant on insults and death-wishes; plus thoughts on Oh! / Ah! My Goddess!
Introduction that you can skip if you just want the anime review. So I've received some interesting responses to a few prior blog posts I made over the years. In particular, posts I made regarding the holocaust and pedophilia (if you want a taste of both, go play Barbarossa). The type of responses I do … Continue reading Rant on insults and death-wishes; plus thoughts on Oh! / Ah! My Goddess!

Spontaneous Combustion (1990) brief thoughts
Rated: 2.5 / 5 So there was studio meddling with this film. A rough cut exists that's, well, rough. Unfinished special effects, not all shots are in it that should be (a few of which made it into the theatrical cut), but it is a more cohesive vision. In particular, the film clearly becomes something … Continue reading Spontaneous Combustion (1990) brief thoughts
Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off (2022) thoughts
Rated: 4 / 5 My first experience with skateboarding was primarily watching other people doing it, seeing videos of it, or playing videogames on it. Never really tried it myself (I'm not an adrenaline junkie, not like that). Tony Hawk Pro Skater (PS1, 1999) was the big game that the friends of my time (my … Continue reading Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off (2022) thoughts
