  Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald 2018

  ★★½ Rewatched 31 Mar 2025

  Strong worldbuilding — or, at least, the illusion of it — and good performances, especially from Eddie Redmayne and Zoë Kravitz.

  Unfortunately, the story gets completely lost. Many components feel like they’re supposed to mean something — the vague familiarity of the Lestrange name, the significance of Ezra Miller’s character, the inclusion of Nagini — but remain too confusing to have much impact.

  WILD how this got its own world at Epic Universe … and perhaps affirmation of the film’s rich production value despite a scatterbrained story.

  The Wonderful Spring of Mickey Mouse 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 29 Mar 2022

  1.) This entire era of Mickey is bonkers, but this special is absolutely UNHINGED and I love it.

  2.) It’s wild to think this “new” style for Mickey is actually now 9 years old this month. This will be a generation’s Mickey Mouse and I don’t think that fact has settled in for critics of this series.

  3.) Growing up, it always felt like whenever Mickey’s history was celebrated, it ended in the ‘50s, and sometimes maybe included Christmas Carol…
