  All Quiet on the Western Front 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 19 Feb 2025

  This movie deserved the awards it was given, sound production and score are fantastic.

  But, I can't ignore my history degree with the great historical accuracy up until the last 20ish minutes... that would not have happened for a number of reasons and it's disappointing to see the directors/writers change the ending--it being the whole point of the title and movie.

  The Social Network 2010

  ★★★★★ Watched 12 Jan 2025

  2 big takeaways:
  1. Watching the full Andrew Garfield scene is like watching the Mona Lisa being painted 
  2. Thinking about the fact that the Mark Zuckerberg irony had really only begun in 2010... little did they know what hellscape we'd be in today

  Great use of changing color grading to depict emotion and character development. The movie gets darker and bluer the deeper Tracy spirals into the dark side of teenage-hood in the 21st century.
