She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022)

Wait ... why don't people like this?

[10/10 · 27 June 2023]

Trying to understand the bad reviews. It's starting to seem like every project with a leading woman, minority, or both gets bad reviews - crazy, right?

It's funny, delves deep into MCU stories that we wouldn't otherwise get, and it's completely true to the comics.

The only legitimate complaint is the CGI, but it's a TV show - kind of understandable.

If you don't like this show, I have serious questions for anyone who considers themselves a comic book fan. It's pulled STRAIGHT from the comics - and who can hate a little fourth-wall breakage?

Not to mention: A cameo a week! One of my favorite shows. It's not serious or important for the overarching story - but it's not trying to be.

The Last of Us: Long, Long Time (2023) Season 1, Episode 3

Amazing episode - I don't care if it deviated from the games

[10/10 · 15 February 2023]

I've never played the games - but if they make a great episode that deviates from the source material, does it really matter?

You forget about the main story. They took a minor point and created a beautiful story in a vacuum.

It's a nice break from the action and the fear. The '80s song from the first episode ends up not being as important as we think, though maybe a nice easter egg for game fans.

But it was perfectly timed (didn't feel like an hour and a half) and perfectly shot (framing Tess's name on a piece of paper was incredible cinematography that I can't even fathom).

One of my favorite episodes of television ever.

Abduction (I) (2011)

I would rather be abducted

It would be better than seeing this again.

My future mother in law thought this was the greatest movie ever. It almost made me call off the wedding. I'd rather get kidnapped and never see my family again than sit through this movie. I had to text 988 after watching this. I no longer want to be part of a world in which this movie also exists.

Chuck: Chuck Versus Tom Sawyer (2008) Season 2, Episode 5

This might be the dumbest episode and it doesn't fit at all in with the rest of the season.
