  Rudy 1993

  ★★½ Watched 22 Jan 2025 1

  Congrats Rudy, you got one play in a game where the score was 24-3. And you were offside. Would love to see Rudy get bulldozed by Quinshon Judkins. One spin move from that man would put Rudy into a coma. "Since 1975, no player has been carried off the field at Notre Dame." Why do we think that is? Only person who deserves to be carried off that field in the last 50 years is Chip Trayanum. Boring movie as…

  Neon Genesis Evangelion 1995

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 01 Nov 2023

  I recently rewatched this with Pete, and I was curious why I loved this series so much. Obviously, I remember why I love this series, I watched it this summer, and it's still pretty fresh in my mind. I mean I wanted to really focus on what this show does so well that makes me care for it in the way that I do.

  On my first watch, I was hooked by the story. I couldn't get enough of the…

  Heretic 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 19 Mar 2025

  This was pretty good! Hugh Grant was excellent, what a freak! Some of the second and third acts lose a bit of luster and excitement, but the gore is really well done, the twists are unexpected, and the jump scare kills were actually very well done. I usually don't react to jump scares, but the second or third one got me pretty good. This is the perfect movie for 16-year-olds to watch at a sleepover.

  Thor: Ragnarok 2017

  ★★★½ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  Solid movie from start to finish. I liked that Taika Waititi just went crazy and did sort of whatever he wanted. The music, the writing, the cinematography. It's all very particular and fitting for this exact type of movie.

  Yi Yi 2000

  ★★★★½ Watched 11 Mar 2025

  I usually know exactly how my review of a movie will go as soon as the movie ends, at the very least when I write the review. This is not the case. There's a lot going on in my life right now, and some aspects of that found resonance in this movie. I think in a few years I'll be able to more appropriately explain how this movie makes me feel.

  Past Lives 2023

  ★★★★★ Watched 13 Mar 2025

  I really don't even know what to say. I will remember this movie for the rest of my life. I think I'm so overwhelmed with the emotions of this movie that I'm not thinking clearly. This was one of the best first watches of my entire life. Maybe when I'm thinking more clearly my review or rating will change but I don't think it will. Watching this the day after Yi Yi feels so poetic. These two viewings changed me.
