  Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 15 Mar 2025

  The story goes that God created the world in 7 days (6 if you’re pedantic).
  Creating Across the Spiderverse took him the rest of recorded history.

  And Alexander wept, for there were no more films to conquer.

  Metropolis 1927

  ★★★★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025 1

  I watched this last night but just didn’t have the balls to log it.
  What was I going to say? Yes it was incredible? Yes the special effects were awesome?
  Yes it’s a genre defining piece of storytelling so visionary that its effects can be felt across modern cinema?
  Yeah, it’s dope.

  The Banshees of Inisherin 2022

  ★★★★½ Watched 05 Jan 2023

  A macabre tragicomedy set on a small and isolated island against the backdrop of the Irish Civil War. This movie explores the fraught relationship between two former best friends, and how their conflict ends up being more self destructive than anyone would have expected.
  This movie was dark and hilarious and full of some of the best performances of the year.

  Scream 1996

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 06 Jan 2023 1

  Dude I love Scream, it’s easily one of my favourite horror movies.
  In an era of Michael “the terminator” Myers and Freddy “the dream fuckdemon” Krueger, Scream gives us a klutz of a dude in a mask called “Ghostface”.
  Coupled with the fact that unlike in almost every other horror movie, the main character (Sidney Prescott) is not an idiot, and is in fact very competent and smart; this makes for such an entertaining time.
  Scream is a celebration of horror movies and what makes them so great.
