Ugh. I started a job at an office supply store recently, hence why there wasn’t a review last week. I’ve just been exhausted. Standing on my feet for 6+ hours a day while working the register is very much not my idea of fun or engaging jobs. Hopefully, I’ll be out before I get used… Continue reading “Vivo” is forgettable fun
Spoilers ahead. As you know, I haven’t been a fan of a lot of Pixar’s recent stuff. It just feels like they’ve been trying too hard, that they’ve been over-reliant on one trick: building up to that one climactic emotional moment, without regards for plot coherence, or world-building.

The latest episode, “Together Again” was just *chef’s kiss* amazing. Had this episode been the last to air - it would have made the near-perfect conclusion to the series. This… Continue reading “Together Again” Brings Us Back For One Last Adventure
Finally: a good Netflix original. After sitting through the okay Arlo the Alligator Boy and the utterly mediocre snoozefest that was Yasuke, it was good to watch something that was a near-masterpiece of story-telling and animation. Castlevania’s final season like the rest of the series was amazing. I always get nervous with final seasons -… Continue reading “Castlevania” ends on a masterful note
Sorry that there wasn’t a review last week. I was very busy and very tired. But let’s jump straight into this week’s review. I am a goddamn sucker for the found family trope, especially the “Badass Adoptive Father” trope. Like I just love the idea of a master assassin or former soldier just suddenly being… Continue reading Not a lot to say about Netflix’s “Yasuke”
