  The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 16 Mar 2025

  Horror with classic cartoon characters?! Sign me up.

  This film is inspired by one of my fav horror films: "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" and I loved the bubblegum update to make things scarier (maybe too scary for the kiddos? But I lived). The animation is gorgeous, the sight gags, animation mixing, and zany comedy is such a joy that it's impossible not to smile thru the whole thing.

  Porky and Daffy made for an excellent odd couple, and I…

  Okja 2.

  I just don't think there was enough here. For one, the musical element was really lacking. The singing (if you can call the whisper thing singing) wasn't that pleasent to listen to (especially with non talented singers) or catchy, and there just wasn't enough of it. Either…

  Dream Scenario 2023

  ★★★½ Watched 10 Nov 2023

  I think Nic Cage as a collective dream figure was such a solid and unique idea. There's a lot of fun with that setup and Nic Cage is definitely the man for the job, delivering a fun, animated performance. This dream/nightmare concept allowed for lots of fun sequences taking full use of Cage's ecentricness. 

  Lots of great humor (that awkward sex scene was beyond hilarious) and the satire of it all was well thought out. I also liked that sometimes…
