Preface: While writing this, I made a whoooole lot of assumptions about Glazer’s artistic intent and the deeper meanings behind some of the themes found in this movie and there is a VERY real chance I am way off. But fuck it. Unless Glazer pops on here and comments that I’m completely off, then I’m just gonna assume I have something of merit below. Or at least something worthy of conversation and discussion. Anywho, just wanted to get that out…

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One 2023
One last time in IMAX. 4th time and honestly, my favorite viewing so far. Had a big ol dumb smile on my face the entire time. Just the fucking best. In honor of Tom Cruise, I've created a list of some of my favorite TC videos and interviews. There are quite a few so I recommend coming back to this every time you need a good laugh or anytime you forget how fucking GOATED this man is.

In someways, this almost seems more accurate to our current situation than…

The trailers did absolutely nothing for me and the “from the director of the Maze Runner films” wasn’t inspiring a whole lot of confidence. (I also thought the CG in the trailer looked pretty mid but we will get to that in a bit). Then, out of nowhere I started…

Elvis: That's the Way It Is 1970
Can you imagine an insanely popular artist today, say Harry Styles for example, going down into his crowd mid performance and just straight up making out with every woman in the crowd? The 70’s dude. Wild times.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings 2021
Embargoed.
Jk. No one of actual importance gives a shit about this review.
Fuck man. Shang-Chi is the truth. My favorite Marvel film in quite some time. Hell, I nearly forgot it even was a Marvel film. It has its own voice and style and it all just works for me. I found it incredibly touching (at least for a Marvel film) and it actually hit me in the feels multiple times. It also just kicks so much ass.
