  Jingle All the Way 1996

  ★★★ Watched 17 Dec 2024

  As a child of the 90s,

  Hasn’t been this much rizz in
  Minneapolis
  Since the Artist known as Prince

  Mean Girls 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 11 Jan 2024 1

  On a scale of 1 to SLAY,
  I’d say Damien

  The LIGHTING.

  The COSTUMES.

  The AULI’I CRAVALHO OF IT ALL.

  The whole cast absolutely delivers, making performances their own while still paying homage to the OG movie and the Broadway show. Loved all the little Easter eggs throughout

  Jaquel Spivey, whom I had the IMMENSE pleasure of seeing in Strange Loop on Broadway, is underutilized but gets a truly chortle-inducing spotlight moment at the talent show that is worth the price of admission in and of itself.

  Any other film that tries
  to outdo Marcel
  has some big—small—shoes to fill

  I’m a sucker for any story that is told from the smol perspective (e.g. Bluey, Ramona Quimby, etc). I think adults (myself included) often forget how unfathomably enormous and overwhelming simply existing in this world is when it is not built with you in mind. However, being too small for the world in general also grants you the opportunity to innovate and to appreciate the things…
