  National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 1989

  ★★★★ Rewatched 22 Dec 2024

  It's tradition in my family to watch this every year. It's simply the best Christmas movie.

  Die Hard 1988

  ★★★★ Rewatched 22 Dec 2024

  First time actually catching the beginning of the movie and seeing it all the way through. Hideo Kojima was clearly inspired by this one.

  Scott Pilgrim Takes Off 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 01 Dec 2023

  A great adaptation that takes the original comic's premise and subverts it. I don't think anyone was expecting a Rebuild of Evangelion type reimagining of the story quite like this but honestly, I would rather have this than a shot-for-shot remake of the comic. A lot of people were upset over this decision but I loved it, and I've been a fan of the comic since high school.

  I recommend, but I suggest reading the comic (or at least watching the movie) first because you'll get a lot more out of the show as a result.

  Back to the Future Part II 1989

  ★★★★ Rewatched 25 Mar 2022

  As a kid I've always held this movie in regards as the best in the Back to the Future trilogy. Upon rewatching it as an adult I think the first act of this movie was honestly dumber than I remember. For a moment I was worried this movie might not be as good as I thought.
  However it's the last half of the movie when Marty has to go back to 1955 is where this movie truly shines. In the end, I still really like this movie and it's a ton of fun, but I think I MIGHT consider the first BttF to my favorite now...
