The Boys: The Instant White-Hot Wild (2022)
Dissapointing
This just makes me sad. The whole episode just feels really stupid and lazy. I get that superhero fights are difficult to make on a tv budget but the final battle was just awful to watch and writers don't seem to be on track on just how strong each superhero is. Also it was stupid to make queen mave survive the final explosion.. This completely mitigates her heroic sacrifice and it just highlights that the show won't ever put important characters to any risk. You can tell who is going to survive and who isn't and this loses all the tension in the fighting sequences. This episode felt like The Boys is starting to become what it used to make fun of.
Scary Movie (2000)
Suprisingly solid spoof movie
The movie works suprisingly well. All the movies that it parodies are structured together in a decent way that makes sense within the movies logic. The end twist is also suprisingly well executed. The humor is pretty hit or miss but it doesn't overly rely on shock humor etc. It even has a few funny bacround gags that I missed the first time watching. Obviously there were also parts that felt painful since the humour was just plain bad in them.
Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002)
One big video game cutscene
The pacing didn't work at all as a movie and felt like it was meant to be a video game. Scenes shifted with a loose plot around them and the conversations feeled like npcs talking to each other to explain what happens in the next scene.
