Nimona 2023
"What does it feel like? The shape-shifting? Does it hurt? Sorry, small-minded question."
"You know, it hurts worse when I don't do it."Nate, ND, thank you for telling this story.
Nimona has meant a lot to me ever since I was a sad, little 17-year-old wallowing in high school and waiting for Nate's webcomic to update on Tumblr. He captured lightning in a bottle with the story then, and now, like Nimona, the story has morphed into something new.…

The Banshees of Inisherin 2022
I'm reviewing this a few months after watching it because it's a crime I didn't review it properly at the time.
What can be said about depression that isn't bland or glaringly obvious? That hasn't been said a million times before? That it sucks? That it causes you to push away your friends? That it eats away at you, the knowledge that you'll never create a masterpiece, until you've cut off your fingers to give yourself an excuse to never…

Black Bag 2025
The script and acting are really good, but holy shit, Soderbergh, what the hell was that lighting?
Actually painful at times (I had to constantly rub my eyes), the film was both too dark and too bright. The sky would be free of clouds, but there wouldn't be a hint of blue anywhere, all color washed out. Scenes would start and you would have no idea where you were or who you were with because it was pitch black. Every…

Hero 2002
Watched this back in a film class in college. Still beautiful and sharp. Says a lot and presents complex issues with very little dialogue. Beautiful what visuals and movement can accomplish alone. Cinema is awesome.
DON'T rent it on YouTube. I realized too late it was an English dub and there was no original audio option. I could only take 20 minutes of some of the worst dubbing I've ever heard. The cadence, tone, and volume of those speaking didn't match the actors. Like, why are you screaming when the actor is talking calmly? It butchers the experience. Switched platforms just to get the subtitled version.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023
Yep. This is my comfort movie. Watching it feels like home.
And now, to spend a moment on the 'Gwen is trans' argument, which I think is really important. Spider-Gwen is one of my favorite heroes, one of my favorite characters, and one of my favorite comics. I'm going to be honest, I saw this movie twice in quick succession without being aware that there was a lot of talk online about this subject. About her being trans. I read…

The Rocky Horror Picture Show 1975
I don't know exactly what I just watched, but I think if I had seen it as a teenager I would have realized A LOT of things A LOT sooner.
