fuckinm wtf where did the year go.
I recall like September Im like xmas is never coming lol, now its like full swing holiday season and I feel like its going by too fast.
I did a important English exam just recently I think I did alright, I already took some notes on a improving strategy If I do ever have the misfortune of having to go back.

Basically the over arching strategy is to improve the repertoire of essay prompt ready books.
Need to be practised too so the essay itself becomes routine & menial.
The plan could be streamlined a bit better.
The thesis creation could be more robotic and streamlined.
I’m not bad, but say I were to practice like 100 exercises. Would improve the process quite a bit.
Now not to mention the logistics and the peculiarities of the location.
Overall pretty good for a first little dip back in the schooling.
I Identified these activities as my best use of time with the post secondary. Its like matching 2 trains speeds together, or a air to air fuel transfer.
What else is just writing down the plan is not necessarily the actual modus because Im not the type to really act until necessary, or itemized, prioritized lol.

Just cause I dont have the grade yet, not for a while even.
And, my intent was to run through more of these even though the desire is to just jump back in English again.
I actually think I did pretty good. I had thought the idea writing the blog might help just random movies and it probably does, but in my studying it became extra curricular.
Amyways blog is a tool a resources, maybe If I was the type to start posting some formal essays I feel like thats some academic privilege might not be the best to post online unless it was already passed and done and old. Who would want to read that, or copy paste lol. Wouldnt that be funny just have the encyclopedia essays, and it would be like a plague on the internet and ai. Hah who am I kinding the advances in ai just going to go to the source lol. I think maybe in the future some freehand not so robotic text could be in demand. And maybe like victorian english people were pretty serious about english and writing and letters and poetry back then, Its hard to expect to make a resurgence like that again, but maybe in different forms. Cause I know some academic types, professional types that use their English skills often, way better than me but would encapsulate that English culture quite fittingly. Anyways got a plan, moving ahead here. If it comes a time need to attack the English specifically more, or even in a more advanced setting I’ll be ready for that.

Halloween tomorrow,
Been doing the Monster madness on the youtube.
Few new movies.
You know lol great time for movies, just tune out those politician losers, no culture war for me thanks, ill stick to class war lol. thats hilarious.
So watching these monster madness.
Terrifier 1. was okay, super gore, not much story, I mean you know what youre getting, look at the cover. Overall its a bit of a thoughtless killing spree, did like the pizza scene, the blonde woman was gross. Its like yeah lets watch this with the fam, And i mean okay Halloween you watch the fam movies then late at night the true watch shit like the exorcist and terrifier ? lol.
Terrifier 2, was , seemed more indie, I do like seeing some of the new faces in these types of films, the actors, they can act and its just new, but when its no some A list celebs you recognize feels like the movie goes indie pretty hard. Maybe something like Backrooms its like oh I dont recognize these people, indie movie. Soemthing with the camera too, and settings seeems a little more homemade. Yeah Terrifier 2, it has a super fan base. For me nothing to write home about. Like first of all I need a little comedy, And I mean I ould watch Chucky on repeat, but not terrifier. Chucky is like funny stabby. Terrifier is like trope funny, cause they doing stuff you never seen in a horror I guess. So yea, special effects nerds. And just cause its historic doesnt mean it has entertainment value for everyone. Anyways neutral review, dont hate em dont like em. Happy to watch em once and see what its all about. If it wasnt Cinemassacre curating it It would probably hold less value…

Next.
Nigth of the Demons. 1988
Ok this more it, the campy, dsancing crappy house, halloween tropes, the Driving old cars and old 80s neighborhoods.
The movie itself was kinda forgettable, but not when youre watching it, it has all sorts of funny stereotype characters, and what youd expect from this kind of movie. Its like a party I dunno its fun, positive review glad I seen it cause I love 80s shit, and thats enough really. Would watch again, but id rank a bunch of other 80s movies as slighty better. Who cares it makes another halloween classic to throw on every once in a while. This one probably my fave so far.

Next was
Haunt season 2024
Ok bunch of horror convention weirdos make a introspective movie about Halloween, this one super indie, but also was some neat things.
Life in indie film seems kinda tough. This one was interesting enough to watch all the way through. Hard to think of some original thoughts cause I just seen James review it and he had some interesting perspective I hadnt thought of. Yeah I mean when its Monster Madness I just watch as many as I can. So would encourage to watch this one, Its like 80 mins long. Again some new actors Its a new experience for me. Yeh Usually try to write before I watch the video but sometimes it gets away from me. Just a re commitment keep hittin the blog withsome entertainment updates. Its a good English practice without the formal English anything and it makes writing like once a week accessible and routine. And its not the burden of a huge exam, preparations and such.

Next I got Either Street fighter or Hubie Halloween, family member told it was crap but I’ll watch em anyways haha.

Theres a certain truth about writing some English specific homework to wild movies that don’t fit the structure.
Anyways whatever chance to see some movies and write some unspecific fodder about it.
I have some English specific work that would just be a bore to post unless I had a finished piece.
Thought process anyways, and easier to edit within another document.
Been working on this English pretty steady.
Seen a few movies .

Hatari! ’62
Wild John Wayne about some hunters. Never seen this one before. The scene that caught my eyes was the chair mounted car driving through the savanna top speed. That was pretty wild. The rocket shooting up and around the tree monkey netting. That was pretty wild too you dont really see that in movies these days. And, im sure for good reason, but thats what makes it wonderful to look at. Some funny elephant scenes. The characters have some kind of goofy high school Archie comics vibe. Otherwise was a neat film I would watch again.

Transformers ’86
Seen this one in theatres freakin awesome. Its like a laser rock show with fighting robots, and flashing effects. Features Orson Welles as his own planet eating robot bad guy, so thats awesome.
Orson Welles fan and he such a delightful thing. The world back then. Not only that its like a rock metal video, with its own soundtrack and the fights are kinda timed to the music. Which is kinda unconventional now. Other voice actors are familiar voices from back in the day. Leonard Nimoy, Eric Idle, Casey Kasem, Scatman Crothers, Just a bunch of other voices that are hard to name of the top of my head. But yeah, all stars in the animation movie that plays out like a music video. And they all having fun with these goofy lines, for example the dino bot was pretty funny. There nothing to complain about in this movie its like a Saturday morning extended cartoon. But spoiler the Optimus prime gets petrified and the little kid crying lol. Brutal, they dont show that on a cartoon so I bet they were dying to give it some older themese that werent allowed in the syndicated run. Even though as im learning syndicated run has less constrictive by bypassing stricter network restrictions. I feel like Hasbro was on top of the world back then, and now is a different company. Anyways just going back to a time where a new transformers episode was possible. And the return of Optimus Prime. Lol anyways the movie nowadays was enjoyable. It felt nostalgic Yeah and Leonard Nimoy and Orson Welles is certainly a treat. I like the decepticons and the so many characters. They all have a little voice to squeal about. And you can see they are the ‘evil’ characters backstabbing each other and fighting amongst themselves. Funny little anthropomorphic quips. Especially in the autobots leadership. Gotta love Megatron, just gets beat around a bunch and abandoned in space, just to get the upgrade and new army. Unicron is the new transformer planet eater. That transformation is pretty sick too from the animation. The object of desire is the leadership matrix. Since the main characters get blown up to smithereens But the other faction with the dinos human, the other leader transformer Rodimus prime, its hilarious thats the dude from Breakfast club. Judd Nelson. With all the overly friendly 80’s psa morals kind of character. Just wonder why that red beam affects only galvatron and not the other robots. Maybe cause was rebuilt. Anyways its whatever awesome 80s movie and a sweet franchise thats gotten good movies. Generally lol. No complaints on this one though

___

Resident Evil ’26
It was new in theatres, seen it on the mini imax.
It was pretty good. A friend told me the guy that made it, made it out to be like a video game so it becomes another action adventure than the plot. Lots of good sequences in this film that make the sense of travel real. They picked a regular dude for the lead I never heard of. Its a good new entry. Some of the resident evil movies were getting weird, I liked the first one, maybe even the second one. Anyways this follows I guess the multiverse trend which is fine why not creating a new racoon city and umbrella corp. The main character has alot of monologues and self dialogue, self describing dialogue. Then its alot of tropes and encounters. Makes for a good plot enjoyed it. Got a winter and Halloween theme. The sets are creepy, you got blizzard highway, creepy old barn and house. Winter forest, tunnel. Apocalypse city, hospital. Elevator scene. Lab secured area. Parkade. They did alot of scenes from the game. With going into dark doors. The perspective I mean. Anyways was saying the character just some regular dude and cant operate a firearm, I guess he figures it out but maybe a little realistic tension builder. If you had one of those things running after you. Also its hilarious they put it in the car lol. Thats when I knew this was a fun movie, and it takes it time setting up a little joke here and there. Along with the extreme gore but its gross zombie mutants so its like doom. The film sets the tension to increasing throughout the whole film by the end its not sneaking around anymore shit full on exploding everywhere. Yeah no point writing a plot summary. I thought the effects were cool, the movie was cool soundtrack and ambience. The character was funny. The bad guys were scary mixed with corny. The situations the character has to go through were pretty funny and anxiety inducing. Kinda like a dnd character just wandering around picking up stuff, with a skill issue. Farm and driving scenes were really good. The tunnel was mid. The city and hospital were crazy. I like these little acting moments, the character has a pregnant gf and then they all have this mini argument, while the main character is doing all sorts of heinous survival acts. But still trying to be the family guy lol. The plot type would be melodrama its like the action without quite the resolution in terms of The shared human experience. Universal insight about the human experience..Well I dont know about all that but made for a nice little pastime when I seen it. This had more of a fun vibe than like something Romero which has like a little more serious vibe hard to compare really even though same general genre.
When youre killing zombies and having a hard time, thinking of your loved ones will give you the strength to go the extra mile.
When the fate of humanity is in the hands of a regular dude, regular dude steps up to save the world and fail at the last moment, even though he’s not a gun expert, He’s compassionate to the zombies. So the message is, dont give up. Dont have to be a expert in weapons or cruel to the victims, can be kind and still get to the top. Even though bad luck can happen to us all. If it was just a few seconds shoulda hustled more, and maybe dont be so kind to the hit and run zombie victim so it doesnt bite you. Thats the big lesson in this movie.

Here we go. One word to go off on. Hope.
Lets see its a movie. Its all Korean. English subtitles.
I didnt know much about it.
The preview shows some deserted areas, in a town. On a highway. I didnt know if it was zombies paranormal I remember thinking, and theres aliens! lol.
The poster shows Asian woman with assault rifle and a in the corner is a type of creature.
Spoilers.

I gotta say the Koreans have a reputation for making a pretty wild movie. From the few that I’ve seen these movies have always been to the next degree.
Its a thriller I think first and foremost. Action thriller. Suspense, sub plots. Its creative in nature and special effects too.

Characters.
Lots of characters in this piece, its not like a traditional film. The main characters in my view are the authorities police. However there are some other important groups like the Hunters. And the Aliens. You got the civilians elders. The chief is probably like a good 55% of the movie. Is there growth in this character? Not very much, maybe the transition to a naive cop to a broken man to ultimate warrior. The woman cop plays a big role too, and adds some other side of the story. The hunters are the next group, with their own main character. They are at the beginning so they occupy another half of the story. The human civilians are more side characters but they add depth and someone for the cops to partner up with. Some of the civilians are victims or patients, they had some other acting scenes. The acting by the way is great. Perfect mix of over the top and sappy emotional moments to funny and relax moments. I might say in a metaphorical sense the environment is alive and is its own danger it makes sounds leaves behind ooze, things are flying. Not really a character but it shrieks and the audience views things distant in a way that unsure what is out there. Chief is loyal to his job, its a quiet area usually you get the sense so things start getting pretty crazy. Right away the character has flaws too, its not like a every shot hits, theres all sorts of accidents. In turn the character really gets traumatized with all the insanity going on especially at the beginning. No it goes on theres more than one monster and you get like a few split scenes of chaos and then it calms down for a while. The chief is a little flustered at first and they make some mistakes but they get it together. You see more of the character in interactions cause its not all monster, they chat with the hunters, and hes always trying to maintain order like asking about where citizens are getting these weapons arsenals. The absurdity of these situations got him losing his cool often and cursing. The film ion strange in a sense introducing the aliens and subplots. Wont go into all the details but through the aliens actions and motivations they have survival and family motivations maybe greater, its left vague so you can interpret it or guess. But the humans are revealed to have killed one of the children aliens, so there is a sympathetic sense to their cause even. Movie kinda reminds me of squid games, cause you get these in between action spots that these characters go off on tangent stories it pretty good I mean for the acting that I like. Cause can be awkard or funny. The characters outfits are unique and bright. Cop has a leather jacket and you dont really see that here. I guess with the chief I should write he had a sense of compassion a bit for the alien, but really its low on information the characters dont know what is going on. And the audience left to piece it together as they do in vague and in your face methods. Alien otherwise is a humanoid that turns into a sharp galloper. they more really fast, and besides for the beginning they aren’t chintzy on the monster scenes afterwards.

Setting.
Hope Harbor.
I couldnt tell you much about Korea. I know about the Korean war. They trashed a whole town for this, and or built a old town. Quite amazing with the town shots. The highway too and farm areas. Its pretty exotic like a northern deep forest. So you get alot of Farm scenes, trashed places. Roads highways, space ships. Probably wasnt just me but you get a sense of maybe Aliens lore in the space ship. Lots of moss, and also gross meat warehouses. The setting is big and dangerous like I said, sometimes you see the danger from far, other times just sense it. Everything is usually wrecked destroyed on fire mutilated. Setting got these ominous signs for mines and lookout for spies. Othertimes its deserted. The town scenes were fantastic, high speed car chases all the checkboxes. Also in the nature scenes were great too. They had horses, and nice artistic forest scenes. Also horse action scenes, you dont see that everyday. The setting is like end of the world too mountains moving and so on. Like a warzone dead corpses scattered all over the place. Explosions small arms fire. People screaming and dying. Getting chased by the alien thats the setting lol. Also yeh mentioned the Aliens style cockpit scene. Kinda a nice touch. This movie was just generous with some of the things a film viewer enjoys seeing.

Im just going to wrap this up. I have some other english duties to attend to. This film was enjoyable like a ride, not a 1940s play if you know what I mean.
Yeah I would watch this again, the moment I had the opportunity again from home.

Its a new film seen it in theatres.
Spoilers probably.
Went into this with not much background, just knew it was Mark Walhberg in a story about FBI, and hiring a mobster after a tough spot civil rights movement days Mississippi.
Thats funny J Edgar Hoover I guess he was the FBI director way back. His name came up when I was watching Clue ’85. Cause he was on the phone. Alright well I know that. Lets see just general sense of the film I enjoyed it. Its like a mobster buddy cop movie. Its drama with some comedy. Some action. Anyways makes for a good piece to write about and subjects that are nuanced. First of all American baggage. I support the civil right movement and not segregation so its kinda crazy some of the scenes that play out in this film. Its a different America with baggage from the confederacy and slavery. Isnt it as simple as that. The New Yorkers, or the Washington DC’s the feds have a general country wide agenda and the people in the south dont really subscribe to the feds. However in the civil right movement, Washington DC makes it clear the segregation is over and they expect the law of the land to prevail. There becomes a disconnect between the will of the president say, and maybe the local authorities. Portrayed as the small town where the business owners might be in cahoots. In truth one need not to imagine it so much as these are actual events. The film based on actual events. Ive seen american media and Forrest Gump. Alabama national guard shooting. Yeah and scenes in this movie are from something youd see in Easyrider. Anyways there was another film that kinda reminded me of this. Kill a mockingbird maybe predates it. I just had a browse through some of the Columbia 100 yrs. Not quite what I was thinking. Anyways what else this movie has some elements of something like ‘On the waterfront.’ Yeah its a mobster movie. But also like a buddy cop. It makes for a wild story the FBI ‘used’ mobster maybe on some kind of plea deal or who knows I havent read anything but what the film told me at the end. Its a coming of age story, the characters are wildly different. And, its fun it breaks the rules a bit. Well that’s what all the people say is that: “the truth is stranger than fiction.” What i liked about the movie showing the family values of the area, and the one fellow saying he’ll pay the tax for anyone who wants to vote. Just to have a voting tax is honestly something I’ve never heard of before. So i could see how 2 $ might be a inconvenience enough to stop voting. The besty part of this movie is the absurd power of the FBI behind the scenes. So the scene where he says hes kinda like James Bond was a good chuckle. Really its just government authorized violence superseding whatever sheriff or local within America faction maybe is the right word like a KKK enthusiast. I think its pretty common now, but as an outsider, there might be a naivety to certain parts of america being unfriendly. And, thats just their baggage. Civil War, Emancipation are the facts. And me personally don’t have a stake in it. I never been to Mississippi, but I know about it in popular culture. I also know about Vietnam and Muhammad Ali. CCR. MAn I take CCR word over it. On the bayou sounds like a nice place. Humanity side. Where people take care of each other. And, take care of their own.

Analysis topics.
Im just following a guide.

Character motive.
First lets talk about the Characters, I cant recall their names right now. So Agent, hes the agent that moved down from Chicago with his wife. Hes the main lead character, although in the film its really a co-star I believe the story arc is about the agent character. Cause he’s all by the book type. Meanwhile you got the hilarious contrast of a partner, is the mobster. Its like this scary New York guy. Whatever it is in his past he becomes the FBI’s guy and hes got license to kill pretty much. So you got the noob cop maybe hasnt had the background as this mob character, so yeah more contrast. Mob guy jadded, he just wants to get back to his fam. Agent, still figuring out who he is. I want to add these characters have a very ying and yang composition. Mob guy is really brutal but its a means to a end and you see he has humanity and his family and obviously in some way co-operated with FBI to get a better life for himself and fam. Something like that cause as audience dont know much about the guy cept his interactions. So the agent is the character with the growth. Goes from being by the book to disillusioned to eventually aving some elements the violence the straightforwardness of the mobster. Agent also gets taken to breaking point, his witness killed, almost killed himself several times before in a sense gives up to the violence methods. In the other hand the mobster character is shown to have a lighter side too with a sense of humour and family and children with a touching family scene at the beginning. Also theres another scene after the characters meet when he shows he got a brain too, not just the brawn. get the truck info without much of a scrap.
The character motivations, the agent for the civil right movement and equality, and his childhood home. so the complete opposite characters interacting make up for most of the movie. Some of it is pretty funny, maybe like a lethal weapon kind of way. Another one too is They Live. Im talking about the white and black unlikely partner. Its a classic trope. And I mean just like They live the have a good fight each other scene before they become friends. So i dont know its a chuckle. I was in the mood for a detective type movie. It has some good noir elements, including the characters. The agent sometimes you see his suffering and its something you can understand with out too much dialogue. Turn a cheek. they talked about Malcolm X and MLK in the car. There was some other little nuanced jokes i didnt pick up on quite. Probably like a pop star personality or from current events. Im just not a product of the 60’s.

The agent goes from paper pusher wanting some action in a sense. To a great power then becomes disillusioned. The funny thing with this story is through violence and torture they get the confessions. Sense of duty accomplished for the agent finally, but he reflects upon what it cost. Its hilarious though the cahonnes on the mobster literally just walk up anywhere and smash up the place. And the agent is left struggling with the ethics of the chaos. But theyre on a goal by any means. Maybe thats another catch phrase from the past I havent picked up on. Anyways I find it more fun to empty out my opinions first before I go reading more about it.
The mobster doesnt much care about growth, I think he wants to get back home to the fam, jump through the awful informant hoops to be left alone. Which is still kind of a good deal except gotta go on some secret mission. To crack some skulls as he might say lol.

Some other characters, the vote buyer, hes like a catalyst. I mean the first scene is a nice dinner family, the you see his house get burned down in a probably media frenzy at the time.
The antagonist you barely see but hes going on some freaky religious rant about ancestor blood in the fields The feds wanted these hillbilly towns to fall in line and there was obviously a front line for the conflict in the streets of America. Mobs with guns shooting up houses is probably not something the feds wanted lol, clearly. So theres a civics and a disobedience from the confederates I mean. lawlessness. Which i guess isnt new in America film stories. But also how the bad guy gets it.
Torture victims, these guys go around brutalizing people for clues, so they can be grouped as characters lol the hill billy screamers. I think the lesson in this movie is someone always going to rat and get that super statement. And whatever punchline like: This is the Missisipi aint going to work. To normalize lynching and crazy gun toting mobs.
So the good guys get it, and whatever little pocket of lynchers in this scenario got caught.

Symbolism.
The kkk cross. The fire. The burning down of the cross while the agent has a burning down of cares to give anymore. Hes about to go renegade rambo for revenge.
Symbolism. The good guys shooting the cop, yeah thats something you dont see. Don’t get in the Fbis way.
Symbolism white black contrasts, black coffee. The ever changing dynamic between who is driving who.
The southern scenery.
The old cars. The heat of the south.
The hospitality of the south. The segregated hospitality.

Narrative voice
There is no narrator, the film is the narrator, we get to see behind the scenes as they happen to an extent. The big events.

Comparative themes.
Has a bit of Sopranos vibe innit. The mobsters struggle to do right by their loved ones. The agent struggling damaging his humanity for the greater good.

Rhetorical strategies.
Lots of: “This is the way it is boy and it aint changing.”
The rhetorical of the racism as seen in symbols and violence.
And, the fear it generates.
The rhetorical of a African American agent making arrests and getting belittled at crime scenes, and his own community buildings.

Social commentary
Few things just how broken system could be. To the extreme in some areas with the prejudice, you have the group with the badges administering the law unfairly and through means of intimidation and violence and segregation. The social commentary that the mobster mentality is the way to get things done for both the mobsters, and the FBI and J Edgar Hoover with the reputation. So its a bit of a fubar moment where you see the FBI hiring the mob to get things done pretty bleak looking society. But fight fire with fire and by jove they got it. Mobster dont care he just wants the name, and whatever it takes to get it on the tape that means job done. The agent, its a relief and justice for his murdered neighbors. The social commentary is you not going to be as organized as FBI even the untouchables so even in a dark time theres a bitter sweet justice to be had. Its just one story of many. Social commentary is cant we just get along, and segregation makes for less happy. I mean even talking about romancing the black girl (made up story by the mobster) the guy was smiling and they both benefited. Such a alternative to violence and death clearly. Just people resistant of change.

Persuasive techniques lol.
Yeah I think some on the waterfront torturing union bosses lol.

Nah its a good movie I enjoyed it.
Fun thing to do on a afternoon.
The settings the old torture offices, and the noir dingy agent offices, it casts a cool vibe.
The cars were cool and classic, old trucks and shops. Its like a Stand by me vibe a bit.
Some of the scenes were pretty wild, its like i go watch zombie movies and theyre having a shoot out at the house. Not some family old guy with his fam inside. Just get targeted by practising civics in your community as the forefathers intended. Is a both un american and very american thing.
I think segregation is bad, I think more people are able to share culture and music fun things. People are nomadic too. Its a touchy and nuanced thing in current events and all around world so. But in this case its specific to America. Anyways im here for the writing and the story and my own experience. I just think its a cool piece based of a true story, which always a challenge, but some writers Ive seen do it well liek the Ken Follet and the Iran book. This movie better than some bio pics I seen so. And yeah its just a wild ride, license to kill american style, but also with confines of the omnipresent big brother, who can summon the mob crazy dude at the dinner with his family lol. Whatever good on em for being resourceful. I never wanted to be a cop or agent as such but makes for a good movie. And Mark Walhberg his cop drama action movies were always pretty good. Just makes it more cool its a true story and takes you back there on a journey. Think I rinsed pretty much the general ideas and themes. Good detective drama action comedy piece. Its got jokes.

Just as suspected the reviews arent great, which is fine, glad i seen it instead of being discouraged by some random review that accidentally catches your eye.
The gangster guy was pretty hardcore Gregory Scarpa born in the 20s. Unfortunate turn of events for him in real life with the infected needle.
Anyways was going to write theres a 80s movie about this too its called Mississippi burning.

Been a minute since I visited the blog.
___
Theres been a update and Im just tinkering my way through here.
With the box for the wordpress tools, not visible.
Anyways If I publish the post as per usual seems easier to edit, in the way I use this.
In my posts usually the 3 underscores marks a point updated. And, I generally dont edit many old posts, except for maybe a entertainment list or the stooges references in pop culture.
___
Yeah I have to do this as the draft and saving just isnt as consistent as I’d like and if Im going to write something nothing more frustrating than losing all your text.
Just really brutal. Its 2026 draft shouldnt take 5 mins to save. and error out when you hit update.
Anyways still a tool I’ll try to bash my way through the procedure and see where I get.
Point of this was a quick log of some of the films I seen this year.

mostly in order lets go. 2026.
Super Mario Galaxy
Mission Impossible 30th anniversary ’96
Fight Club 4k Remaster
Mortal Kombat II
Gundam Hathaway part 2
Star Wars Mandalorian
Back Rooms
Masters of the Universe
Furious
End of Evangelion
Odyssey
Spiderman Brand new day
End of Oak Street
Coyote vs Acme
Akira 4k re release

Holy shit everytime you hit update it crashes to page not found, then forces you to reload the cached back up.
Well sweet this should be fun.
Just super fuckin annoying trying to concentrate on one thing and dealing with troubleshooting garbage that used to work.
I though it was a update, not a debilitating move backwards.
___
Oops that page cant be found.

fdsrtesdyrtftyhufgygui

Alright sweet well thats fuckin annoying try to go write the movie log instead im fighting with an update I dont like.
fuckin software, its like windows 11, relearn everything, click the button here instead. Works less than before sweet update bro.
Alright anyways Im just going write and ill copy paste on a notepad so I dont lose the writing in a oops page not found!

alright fuckin movies.
Top movies so far in my preference
MK II
Furious
Mission Impossible and Fight Club were nostalgic in theatres.
Lots of mid movies I enjoyed, but really nothing to write home about.
Its like yeah I laughed at a few scenes at He man, and it was entertaining to watch but limited replay value.
Backrooms was one of the more interesting ones, bunch of good actors, just in a room with not much to go off on the background stories of the franchise or the characters, and despite me wondering how they make a movie about that youtube. It turned out pretty good.
Yeh I mean just the pool of the mid movies, Mario Galaxy it wasnt as good as the first one, but little bowser was good mean villain you know haha.
That Gundam Hathaway was pretty cool, just the detail and scenes were appealing, it was like tropical and Ayers rock. The characters were really like ridiculous in a sense, but it played with some cool ego things and love triangle but at the surface its a little chidlish and un believable.
And who knows maybe it is a funny commentary about some super general of the fleet, but hes finger wrapped by the ditzy over bubbly zero personality eye candy. Yeh maybe that is realistic lol. And while im on it the main character is like a professional rich and desirable to the women. The contrast is hes the main arm of a terrorist entity with a super indestructible gundam. Anyways whatever its presented, if its more childish or teen or adult themes ill probably check it out. Just for the culture shock on my end. Its exotic right and methods of story telling im unfamiliar with.
Lets see all seen Akira, as my second time seeing it recently its a neat piece.
The violence is there yea, but theres more to this movie. Its classic right. What other piece has the vintage motorcycle gangs, and the destruction.
Another one was Death of Evangelion, yeah super weird abstract piece.
End of the world type shit, and more adult themes, Gotta say Hathaway more of a pilot I relate to than Evangelion.
Anyways, it was a weird abstract piece, with more dream like states. I dunno sometimes its like the super pilot just crying and self loathing aint for me. Its cool though I read the studio wasnt able to finish the project like they wanted so they were able to redo it as a finale properly which is cool. I guess Wes Anderson really likes the movie, and I thought that was interesting piece.
Hathaway just gave lots of gundam time and the cockpit scenes were rad. Hate to compare the two like that, but thats the tangent im on.
End of Oak street was good.
Furious was nearly the best though, wasnt expecting anything. And, just get your socks rocked off by the action. It was like a modern Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. Safe to say if when theres more kungfu in a dark or comical setting I’ll be checking it out.

Thats about all.
Yeah it was fun to see Odyssey, but the 70mm was a pain in the ass, I dont think every movie going to get the 70mm attention.
Novelty, almost 3 hours long lol.
That was an experience.
Spiderman was just as fun.
Practical effects and the big movie was fun.
Some of the acting was funny. just move the actors from Odyssey to Spiderman lol.
I dont care Robert Pattinson and Tom Holland are great.
Dune 3 pass though lol.

Alright day 2.
Im on a 50 day program to improve the English grade.
Its not necessary, but its something I see value in before the post secondary.
Therefore I have a 50 day commitment to the English activities.
Just going to organize then crush some reading and writing tasks.
Might seek out a few sessions for prep could be useful.
Anyways today just rant about film and whatever comes to mind.
Brush off the ol’ cobwebs.
Anyways another reason for doing this is the transfer tickets in case I choose to travel for post secondary.
It opens the possibilities further.
Surprisingly English one of my better classes.
I enjoy some aspects. But, my favorite is the movie review.
Or not a review so much in a sense.
Its fodder for the writing.
When I do the English essays the structure is already there, then begin to reduce the fodder and not say more than needed.
In the review entertainment blog, I freestyle write about what I see and Its a commentary I guess. Mixed with a current events and a inner dialogue.
But thats just the idea theres no particular guidelines.
I think for some top grade gotta strategize and be ready.
That is the main focus for the moment.
Going to get some recommended literature too and hopefully enjoy a new to me classic.
Thats also another thing to look forward to.
___
Site seems to be working much better now lol was pissing me off yesterday just wanted to bash through it and get it going.
Not much else to write about this last consolidate. Some of these movies was a while back too.

Wow movie from 2025 wrote on the blog I dont think that happens to often.
Havent wrote anything in a while so now its more or less start of the holidays have a bit of time do something different.
Just miss messing around on the blog and the structure , sometimes its like dont want to do Columbia playlist and take notes just wanna watch something you dont have to commit to..
Anyways thats just me. The film is better than i thought it might be so far.
Say the clichee thing, kinda reminds me of the Tom Cruise film Edge of Tomorrow in principle only, otherwise its a totally different story.
Some interesting clone space travel scenarios.
The ship is cool its moody, everything is like a hospital insanity sanitarium vibes.
Isnt this the dude from Twilight.. Cant even guess his name hahah gotta google it. Okay Robert Pattinson, ah he aint that bad. Can’t think of anything negative to say, I guess he just plays moody dudes cause he walks around the movie like he been lobotomized sometimes. Also plays the angle of multiple personalities within same close, I can see like the emo version and the more alpha stereotype. Movie aint too bad though, not sure how much replay value it has I think maybe the title of the movie and that winterized style hat draws in a bit of curiosity like wtf is this movie. Its like a humorous morbid. Oh yea another actor the guy thats like the ship commander, dont know his name but I think i have a favorable impression of whatever I seen him in lol, what a sentence.. Lol I remember when Twilight came out, i think I rented it at the blockbuster staying at the folks house, was fun getting a pile of movies so I was like why not. The sets are pretty good, its like a grungy poverty star wars. Ok Mark Ruffalo where have I seen him cant even think right now. Seen 54, Windtalkers. Neat he in a rendition of All the Kings men ’06 might have to try that one too, but would be hard to beat Broederick Crawford. Oh yeah hahah He’s Hulk duh. Haha thats so funny walked right into that one. Havent seen Marvel movie in a long time. Anyways he and his movie wife play some ideologue couple commander of the ship, he kinda controls the fate of the clone character(s)
Not much else to say. Its a dark comedy, I dunno some tragedy romance, but it could be interpreted in a few ways like a satire almost. And, of course the sci-fi elements. Okay those hates and goggle combo they look like AT-ST crew from star wars haha. Thats surprisingly accurate and funny. Minus the football helmet chinstrap. The rest of the cast is like some bad bitches, and everyone has their own little drama. Special effects, good got the 2 clone characters on screen often. Alien creatures, the tech . Um it turns kinda fantastical in the end but i mean this wild story has to conclude somehow. Even though the whole premise is infinite re-incarnation meat recycling lol. Man vs science, and ethics, environment, other man and aliens. Not chintzy on the alien scenes and watching them communicate is unusual. Yeah i guess if I had to choose a negative aspect, i think the first part of the movie is better, its more moody and monologues that and makes for a more disturbed mystery in the opening of the film.

okay just noticed this is sequel to kong original.
came out Dec 22 33 I believe.
lol boring…
its Carl Denhams problems after bringing the beast over.
Thats a cool monkey band lol
dont see that everyday lol..
Treasure ? Double YEah!
Any reason to go back to Kong Island with a dame, ill take it hahah
Tries to give the split and now shes on the boat clever enough..
Same Chief from before paychecks lol.
Everyone gettin paid finally 40 mins in they get to the creepy part.
Heres kong finally lol.
Little kong thats hilarious.
Little kong jumps in action, these scenes is the ticket price awesome, just uppercuts a bear, then get bamboozled himself. its like mma 1933 style.
The ol banana in the tailpipe and clobbered with a tree.
These are some wild scenes in the end, shoulda started the movie with this.
what was that hahahaha.
Thats a total flop picture abomination, but its not too bad ahahaha.
Hard to say was it better than the first, no but in some ways yes, its more b movie style lol.
Its just a rinse I bet the people wanted more more, so they gave it to him lol.
I’ll make sure to add this to my xmas movies.
aw nice he gets the girl
Yeah glad I watched it, added some more lore.. some parts were brutal though but overall solid movie night. Enjoyed that. Had a couple chuckles, some good sets and scenes. Last scene was a bit hilarious but there she blows. Would watch again, will watch again..

Decided to keep a list of all the random stooges jokes I see used by pop culture in the wild since apparently I see them pretty often.

Got a new one, its September 2026 and I seen Clue ’85 with a eye poke and a couple door gags.
Movie has some slapstick elements for sure.

Short time for hobbies, doing well in my physics class so theres that.

Only one I seen recently that I thought to write down was ‘Evil under the sun’ ’82 was a good one Based of Agatha Christie and with character Hercule Poirot, it was a good movie, nice scenery character and story telling was above average for me. Couple good twists.

Played some Mario 3 recently, almost beat World 6. Gotta say after a while of playing its not that easy. I mean when you warmed up and prepared can beat it no problem.
Im talkin no warps and easy on the powerups.
Love the Ice Land theme too.

Also played some Double Dragon 2 Love that power move sound and the connect hit sound too.

Oh yea North By Northwest was good. ’59
Another one was Rock Hudson ‘Lover Come back.’ ’61 liked that

Ursula Le Guin The Left Hand of Darkness
Also like Piers Anthony the Incarnations of Immortality series, which inspired me to write science fiction, as well as his Diary of a Space Tyrant series.
Jerry Pournelle The Mote In God’s Eye

___
Watched a good one ‘Angels in the Outfield’ 1951 version.
Good movie little bit silly but I enjoy baseball and movie was entertaining to watch. Enjoyed the Ben Mankiewicz into. Paul Douglas was particular good. Again don’t see that type of character casting anymore. Its interesting he was in a TV movie ‘Born Yesterday 1956’ a little different than the 1950 version starring Broederick Crawford, thats kinda who he reminded me of.

Francis Carroll And the coquettes 1940 that was pretty cool from what I seen
___
Forgot to write about Broadway Melody ’29 and The Broadway Melody of 1936
Just watching these cause seen some on the TCM seemed interesting MGM films theyre pretty good if youre into that kind of stuff. I like it especially the tap dancing ahaha. Some of the other singing and dance numbers. ’36 was better. Anyways just first time watching these, Sometimes I miss parts here and there, homework and other things. Anyways wanted to write em down.
Just looking at the schedule now, theres MGM parade show, #24 so I guess theres a old show that just shows MGM clips like that. Oh nice its the MGM documentary from ’55 just interviews and clips. ok never heard of that till now. Still like Columbia but neat to check out some successes from other studios aswell. Oh Yea seen ‘Gino Corrado’ in the ’36 one. Recognized him from the stooges lol.

___

The Sea Hawk 1940
Pirate Party on Catalina Island 1935 thats a MGM one
