Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Lawn Jockey (2024)
Could have been funny
I'm not sure why comedy has to include politics? What happened to Larry David making fun of common problems or common social norms? Once you bring politics into it, now people have to take sides. Politics aren't funny. And politics don't stand true over time. Seinfeld will be funny for decades because it's nonsense. If it made fun of politics during the late 80s it wouldn't make sense now. Politics isolate people. It's really a shame, I wanted to like this new season. Shame, Larry David, shame. I'm disappointed and also I have to type a certain amount of characters so I'll just keep saying shame.
Bad Ben: Benign (2021)
Classic Bad Ben
Just fantastic. The special effects this time are the icing on the Bad Ben cake. More ghosts and a mysterious cat even though the camera already is labeled "cat room." Love it. And I wonder if he does his own stunts on this one?
Malignant (2021)
What?
I .. wow. I don't even know how to fill all this space. Um this just made zero sense. You're given zero story until like an hour in. None of it was a mystery that was revealed you're just confused for an hour. Is it a ghost? Mutant? We're scared of it? I think? It's a person? Maybe? X men?
The Resort (2021)
What even is this?
They should have taken the money it took to make this movie, stuffed it in a briefcase, and thrown it in the ocean. A much better contribution to humanity.
The Wrong Missy (2020)
The casted the wrong Missy
Oh my Lauren Lapkus is the WORST. I would have really liked this movie with literally ANYONE else.
The Walking Dead: Home Sweet Home (2021)
Why?
I want 41 minutes of my life back. I don't know why I still watch, I guess I'm clinging to what I remember loving about the early seasons. This show is literal garbage now.
The Walking Dead (2010)
Living Up to Its Name?
After watching the Season 8 finale I thought about how many seasons I've wasted hoping this show would come alive again. It's dead. I don't think it's ever coming back.
Recent seasons focus on talking, drama, feelings, and "revenge." And not even good, blood thirsty, no regrets, anarchical revenge. But, let's all talk about how we feel about revenge and cry a lot. Every. Episode.
No more do we focus on the apocalypse and the disease that's inside everyone. No more do we watch how existence is without government and larger society. Without healthcare and medicine. No more can we see how the characters handle surviving the undead and how they survive without commercial production of goods, without cars and gas. No more is there real fear that zombie and apocalypse fans looks for.
Now we have a soap opera that airs at night. We have a formula used in every season where the "good guys" fight the "villain." Wait, I correct myself, the "good guys" TALK about fighting the "villain" for 11 episodes then one "major event" happens for 4 minutes during the last episode.
I continue to watch the show because 8 years ago I turned on a show that gave me a scared creepy feeling inside when I watched. The opening theme gave me chills. What is the apocalypse like? The dispear and loneliness and confusion. The questions of what's next and what's out there. The unknown. The how do we survive? The fear.
Today I'm watching the first season. To remind myself of how good this show was. I no longer have hope for the new episodes. I can only hope another show will come along one day and bring back what this show once had. Suspense. Real suspense and fear. A real apocalypse feel.
The Walking Dead: Wrath (2018)
Smh
I don't know why I still watch this show. Why don't they just put it on with the day-time soaps?
