  We Beat the Dream Team 2025

  ★★★ Watched 28 Feb 2025

  Thoughts I had: college sports should have an all star game in April. They’d actually try as it might affect their draft status. 

  I had watched the dream team doc so I kept waiting for the “it was rigged” story. 

  Hurley was very fun. 

  Webber was the best interview. 

  Better than the win was the Dream winning by 50 the next day. 

  Jordan asking “who had 8?” Was great.

  Easy A 2010

  ★★★½ Watched 26 Feb 2025

  Not quite as funny as I hoped, but smart and interesting and charming. It really is a modern day John Hughes film, like it says it wants to be. 
  And it’s got a little style to its direction. 

  Been wanting to see this for ages but I keep missing it when it’s streaming. Saw it was on Hulu til
  Saturday and watched it.

  The Marvels 2023

  ★★★½ Watched 11 Nov 2023 2

  I liked this, but not as much as Captain Marvel. Some emotional bits felt unearned. Some emotional bits worked.

  I think Monica’s arc got short shrift so her later beats don’t land like they should.

  It’s silly. Too silly at times. It works better as a Ms Marvel sequel than a Captain Marvel sequel.

  I think Brie Larsen is great in this (and was great in the first one too. )

  Nothing next level good here, but that shouldn’t be a problem. Just enjoy movies folks. It’s easier and more fun.
