Yesterday I sat down and watched all five movies in the The Twilight Saga in a row, back to back, without breaks or distractions. I have transformed into a husk of a man, completely embroiled in my own self pity and wanderlust for the lush forests of Northwestern America. I suffered fever dreams of chiseled...

Flipped is a cute little movie about two kids learning about love and growth and life and trees. I don’t have too much to say about it, because it’s honestly a very plain movie, with a lot of self-indulgent satisfaction. It’s also frustrating that the movie builds up a lot of this tension, and then... Continue Reading →
Some pretty person suggested I go through Steven Soderbergh’s filmography due to his influence on modern cinema. He’s gained a lot of fame and recognition for his innovative filmmaking early on, and wider appeal for his slick, witty, Ocean’s heist films. Since Contagion has a lot of relevance to the COVID-19 pandemic that’s perhaps nearing... Continue Reading →
So this review took a while to write, but that’s because I was home with family, and I just didn’t think about the movie I’d watched. Creed 2 wasn’t a bad movie, but it wasn’t mindblowing either. If there’s one thing that Stallone knows how to do with these movies, it’s to make the audience... Continue Reading →
Archive is one of those ‘high concept’ sci fi movies with robots and AI. It draws extremely heavy inspiration from Ex Machina, one of the more successful releases in this subgenre of sci fi. It also has imagery and concepts similar to Netflix’s Mother (which wasn’t very good), the live action Ghost in the Machine... Continue Reading →

The film is very, very simple: Be quiet, or the aliens come smack you. Everyone is dead. Boy needs medicine. Girl... Continue Reading →
Uh. I saw this movie. I can’t think of much to say. Robert Downey Jr. is in it and he’s cool. Good misdirection. I liked the twists, I liked the mind games. I want to say the movie was innovative for when it came out, what with the CGI and whatever. Idk. There’s a scene... Continue Reading →
Yeah this movie sucked. Nothing to write home about. How Scary Was It? It was ok. The first sinister dug into my fear of photographs and scary shit coming from them and movies, but this one used the photography thing as a prop, and the big scary thing was the kids. It was stupid and... Continue Reading →
I watched this movie at around midnight while sipping on a beer, and an empty stomach. About an hour at about 1am, I emailed my advisor demanding that she sign me up for a class on stocks, the market and the Bloomberg Terminal. I was hyped. The next morning my stock portfolio dipped some 21%. ... Continue Reading →
