Get Me Roger Stone

One of the most fascinating characters I've come across even if he is a garbage human being.

Face/Off

This movie is so much fun, almost from start to finish.

Scorpion

This show is great if you take it as seriously as the writers of the show do. It's stupid and it's supposed to be. It ends up being hysterical and a lot of fun to watch. We don't have too many silly shows airing now that are enjoyable to watch, but this is one.

The Boondocks: 3x04 The Story of Jimmy Rebel

I'm not sure why this episode was considered too hot for HBO MAX considering it really doesn't do anything that the other episodes don't. Watched a bootleg version on dailymotion and it was hilarious

Death Wish 3

Easily the best Death Wish. With a body count of 86 it has 75% of all kills in the franchise. If you have to watch one of the five, this is the one.

Black Mirror: Bandersnatch

This is the hardest film to rate objectively as I absolutely loved MY version of the film. I explored most of the dead ends and had a gratifying end since I experienced so many of the false endings. Gimmicky, but I absolutely loved my experience.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing

Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball Z on Cartoon Network was the greatest lineup ever on afternoon cable. I didn't really understand the story as a kid, but it's interesting as an adult.

Tim and Eric's Bedtime Stories

The best thing about Tim and Eric is the unflinching conviction they have to the story, no matter how bizarre or stupid it is; usually it's both.

Better Late Than Never

This ensemble is the closest thing America has come to the original Top Gear gang. Funny as heck.

Trainwreck: Woodstock '99

Both of the lead promoters are absolute scumbags but John Scher takes it to the next level. He wasn’t accountable back then and he wasn’t accountable now even with hindsight. You treat people like animals, they turn into animals.

Spider-Man

Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man character is easily the best faithful interpretation of the original comics. Peter Park is supposed to be a total dweeb before his transformation to super hero and Tobey nails this arc. I love Holland and Garfield but they’re far too naturally attractive and charismatic to be believable nerds, at least in the classic sense that Stan Lee was going for.

Truth makes the best fiction. Great documentary-adaptation.

Fantastic, exciting. This show got me into the sport and I can't wait to see the 2019 season dramatized in season 2.

Edit: the more you get into F1, the more this show is full of $(!T...

Hostiles

Visually beautiful film and the performances are great, especially from Bale. However, the pace is slow as molasses in the first 3/4s of the movie.

Even if they DID do it, EVERYONE should be furious at the Wisconsin justice system from top to bottom for miscarrying justice.

Ghosts

This adaptation was properly done. Do I prefer the UK version? Sure, but this is still a fun watch. Discount all the British TV elitist reviews written before the Oct. 7, 2021 premiere.

Law & Order: True Crime

Not as interesting or engrossing as American Crime Story, but still pretty well done. You can definitely tell the tone of show is presented from Edie Falco's character's POV as the show presents the Menendez boys as worthy of sympathy.

Good Chemistry: The Story of Elemental

This felt like required reading for the movie…it seems like Elemental flopped because it was TOO personal and buried in a relatively high concept

The IP weighs it down. It set itself up to be inferior but in a vacuum its a decent movie.

Grey's Anatomy

Seasons 1 through 10 or 11, good, if not a great SMART and sexy medical drama with some complicated yet likeable characters to root for. Seasons 12+, a DUMB, ever worsening dumpster fire. From season 12 onwards we lose nearly all of the original characters and replaced with literal lunatics who are horribly unlikeable, have no business being anywhere near the healthcare industry, and their love lives could be described as sex addicts enabling sex addicts with no acknowledgment this is not normal. The ratings keep justifying it's existence, it's a juggernaut in the women demos even after 18 seasons, but why? There are so many better things to bounce to. I get paid to do this and watch it passively so whatever, but most of you do this for free lol

The Exorcist

If you go into it expecting an extension of the movie franchise, you're going to be disappointed. This show feels like Supernatural if it took itself seriously, in a good way.

The TV episode is an hour and a half, 2 parts. The episodes are also out of order, at least according to Netflix.

Queer Eye: 2x06 Big Little Lies

This show works because you're rooting for the person getting made over. This was the first time I disliked the person being helped. This guy is always going to be a piece of crap because he's lazy, but more so because he's a liar.

World Premiere Review:

It's a decent feel good movie, but has some rough edges. Casting Emily Blunt was spot on and Lin-Manuel is wonderful and some of the musical numbers are fantastic. Unfortunately the beginning and middle drag, with Meryl Streep's bit being not great and completely unnecessary. It was also disappointing that none of the original songs made it into this sequel. Dick Van Dyke steals the show at the end, and yes, he does all his own dance moves at 92 years old. Also seeing Angela Lansbury still with it at 93 put a smile on my face. Mary Poppin's exit is surprisingly cold and seems like a missed opportunity to tug at some heart strings. They should have cut the chase scene in the middle (that also felt completely shoehorned in) to make room for it.

Bunch of random set pieces with incoherent story arc tying them all together. Definitely suffers from sequel-itis.
