  Alien 1979

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 10 Mar 2025

  I liked this a lot more upon rewatch. It felt much more inspired and brilliantly designed. I still don't appreciate horror much, but I'm also less adverse towards it.

  La La Land 2016

  ★★★★ Watched 26 Jun 2024

  It was a nice movie. I'm sad that I wasn't in the best mood to watch it when I did, as I think I could've gotten more deeply into the musical mindset another day. But it's a fun movie with good songs and comps.

  Poor Things 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 03 Feb 2024

  I really loved this film. It was a wonder of filmmaking, acting, and creative directing. It crushed me into my chair with the gravity of its music, the extreme zooms in or out, and sudden cuts to silence so many times. And the whole thing grew on me with every minute of the film. Masterful. So creative. Loved it.

  The Panama Deception 1992

  ★★★½ Watched 04 May 2023

  Good documentary covering one of the US's many atrocities done in the name of "justice". Good use of juxtaposition between the weasely government officials and actual, real on-the-ground and scholarly perspectives.
