Getting older means you begin recognizing how insufferable Alvy is. While this is a great film that laid the groundwork for everything that came after, “When Harry Met Sally” feels like the superior picture, if only because I actually like the two leads. Does my liking of characters impact the quality of a film? No. But in this case, yes.

Bill Burr: Drop Dead Years 2025
It is amazing how Bill Burr is still continuing to grow as a person. Especially in an era where most popular male comedians are…well, not doing that.

Nicole Byer: BBW (Big Beautiful Weirdo) 2021
I like Nicole Byer too much to disparage her, so I will just say this is fine.

Leaving Las Vegas 1995
What did 1995 *feel* like? Just watch this film. This has that early-90s feel where everything needs to be dark and gritty just to be dark and gritty. Every scene of the film seems to have its jazzy score playing underneath the dialogue. This is a relic of its time. Cage and Shue give great performances, but the characters feel thin. In a joke that surely has never been done in the 25+ years since this film's release -- I wish I was leaving this film!
