  The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare 2024

  ★★★ Watched 05 Jan 2025

  I do love Guy Ritchie movies, for the way they're filmed, how shots are framed, the editing, the action set pieces and many more stylish choices that make Guy Ritchie movie what it is. This movie is no different.

  Overall a fun movie. Clearly a very hyper realistic version of the true story, but that's expected with Guy Ritchie (and Hollywood movies in general).

  Over the Garden Wall 10th Anniversary Tribute 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 03 Nov 2024

  Absolutely beautiful stopmotion animation, incredible puppets and stunning autumnal art direction. The voice performances sound like the actors hadn't skipped a step in 10 years.

  Such a wonderful short to celebrate the 10-Year anniversary of an already very special miniseries.
  And that's a 🪨 fact.

  Tome of the Unknown 2013

  ★★★★ Watched 03 Nov 2024

  As much of an OTGW fan as I am I can't believe I had never seen this before. I love it!
  Only recently learned that Patrick McHale has made this short film as some form of pilot for what would then become his incredible miniseries.
