The Good, the Bart, and the Loki (2021)
the end of culture
Disney has consumed and monetized everything we know and love and is now rubbing it in our faces and this five minute abomination perfectly represents how unflinchingly greedy and disgustingly "self-aware" theyve become as a corporation
but dont go after tom hiddleston we like tom hiddleston.
WandaVision (2021)
This is what I want from marvel
After the superb finale that was endgame a lot of us were worried about what was to come next. Were there anymore stories to tell?
Yes. Yes there are.
After Covid gave us no new marvel content for over a year and black widow kept being delayed the future of the mcu didn't look good. But then marvel released this gem on Disney plus.
Wanda vision is a simple story of a woman in mourning and surrounds it with an intricately layered mystery with a loving homage to sitcoms at its center. Disney decided to make the genius move to release episodes one week at a time, keeping the mystery intact and leaving tons of room for speculation.
Wandavision certainly isn't for everyone. It's quirky eccentric and more than a little corny sometimes and I don't blame anyone for not being into it. But for me at least, it shows a plethora of opportunities for the mcu to move forward. I'm glad that marvel has made this bold choice and I'm glad their choice has been rewarded.
I can't wait for falcon and the winter soldier, black widow, Loki, and spider man 3. I'm sure they won't disappoint.

The Lighthouse (2019)
THIS MOVIE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE
The Lighthouse is a 2019 horror drama black comedy gobbledy gook kind of movie. It has two of the best performances *checks notes* of all time.
It has a very VERY simple premise: two guys chilling in a lighthouse five feet apart because they're insane. Now let me make this clear THIS MOVIE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE! This is a very artsy hypnotic movie that is more than a little low on plot but certainly makes up in fantastic directing and the aforementioned powerhouse performances. If you're into creepy layered deeply weird gross adventures you will probably love it. If not that's okay too. Just remember to put on the subtitles.
Okay thank you love you byyyyyyyyyye!
Men in Black: International (2019)

Wait, what was I talking about again?
Yesterday (2019)
A clunky, clichéd mess of a film that's a blast from start to finish
Yesterday is a 2019 film directed by Danny Boyle and written by Richard Curtis. The film follows Jack, a struggling musician who, in a freak accident, finds himself the only person on Earth to remember The Beatles and their music.
So...is the movie any good? A lot of people have problems with the movie because of its clunkiness, odd editing, and overly schmaltzy, cliché themes. And I understand all of these complaints and happen to agree with them, too. But the reason I still like it a bunch is everything else about it. It's got some fine acting, some funny lines, a killer soundtrack, and some of the best fan service you can imagine (pun intended).
I doubt you'll find any value out of it if you're not a Beatles fan and that's perfectly reasonable, but the movie clearly made for the fans. Personally, I love The Beatles, and I could not stop myself from squealing not unlike the teenage girls who made them famous in the first place. Every little reference and joke comes together (pun intended) to make an immensely flawed yet purely enjoyable film for all ages.
If you're a Beatles fan or someone just hungry for a simple rom com, I assure you, you will enjoy Yesterday.
