Bride of Chucky (1998)
Exactly what I expected.
Going through a Child's Play marathon, which includes watching the films in the series I've missed.
This was precisely as bad as *any* Part 4 of a horror franchise.
The Rookie (2018)
Being good cops isn't a political agenda
Discussing how to improve policing in the US should be welcome... and it is. Thank you for making an intelligent show where nuance matters, and you don't grossly oversimplify complex issues just to make it more palatable to the unintelligent. The thinking aspect of this show is greatly appreciated.
Watchmen (2019)
Enjoyed it, wish there were more
For starters, I haven't yet forgiven Lindelhof for LOST or Prometheus. He's on my {profane} list just like M. Night after Last Airbender. Also, I've only liked one Zack Snyder film, and that was 300. So the 2009 movie had no impact on my perspective.
The behavior of certain people in power over race was jarring, but reasonably accurate for the time period (I understand that this is an alternate universe). In the American south, including Texas and Georgia, I have first hand experience observing abhorrent behavior towards people of another race. Same in California and Arizona. It's not everyone, and it's not all the time, but it still happens and it's unjust. In the 1930s and 1940s, it was more pronounced. Go read Huck Finn if you're unconvinced. It's not a conspiracy, and there's no such thing as the liberal agenda.
Now, the script was not a dumpster fire like I had originally worried it would be. The main characters were solid, and Regina King was amazing. I don't know much about the world of the Watchmen, so I simply took each episode as it came. I thought the generational piece n the last few episodes was interesting, and was mesmerized by the blue guy talking to a girl in a bar, experiencing all of time at once. It took a little longer than it should have to start tying connections together in the story, but hey - LOST, amirite?
I went to check when the next season was coming out, only to learn it was a miniseries. That ending was pretty inconclusive. Anyway, not a bad way to spend a Saturday. 4/5 stars.
Halloween (2018)
Not as good as Rob Zombie's
It wasn't as deep or psychological as Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007), but still a decent movie.
