  The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey 2012

  ★★½ Rewatched 16 Mar 2025

  Man, this movie.
  I love fantasy, specifically Lord of The Rings, but this is hard to like. From the production problems, overuse of cgi, bloated script, it's just all over the place.
  At the end of the day I enjoy it, but it's certainly not one I go back to, often.

  Such a good film. An amazing balance of tones and not a single weak point in the cast. Visuals and sound were stellar.
  And Robert Pattinson is such a little freak and I love it.

  The Evil Dead 1981

  ★★★★½ Watched 07 Nov 2024 1

  Sam Raimi knocked it out of the park. This movie should be the prime example of having a vision and doing it, even if you only have 10 dollars and Bruce Campbell's chin.
  The sound design and score are so good, as well as the set design. The shots of the moon get me every time!
  Obviously there are some technical shortcomings coming from a low-budget early-career film, but I wouldn't say those take away from the film at all. If anything, they add to it.
  A classic!

  Alien: Romulus 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 04 Sep 2024

  Overall a solid Alien movie, especially as an introduction for new fans. We watched Alien immediately before, and some of the references to the other films were enjoyable, though occasionally a bit hammy.
  My main issue was with some of the cgi (if you've seen it you know), but the practical effects were amazing.
