The Last of Us: Left Behind (2023)
Boring filler episode
Nothing really happens in this episode, it just a flashback to something thats already explained. It also tries to convene that the fireflies are just as bad as FEDRA but very little of the episode is dedicated towards it. For the most part it's just Ellie and her friend dicking around until the thing that is explained in a previous episode happens. The performances are good towards the end but it doesn't make up for how boring 95% of the episode is. The way I see it is that it's two ways to to a flashback episode: the first is that it reveals something new and substantial about the character the flashback is about while it fleshes out the story. The other is that the flashback directly reflects the current events of that episode with it going back and forth (think arrow season one and two) many there's a similar problem in both episodes with similar solutions. This episode does none of that. It tries to reveal something new, but it's not substantial enough and it will doubtfully affect the plot. Overall not a good episode despite the rating. The show as a whole is very overrated.
Luigi's Mansion 3 (2019)
Quality drop off after the first 7 floors is mind boggling
The first part of the game is great, exploring the hotel, gaining new power ups and getting treasure and gems is so fun and rewarding. Then the game turns into a tedious annoying mess, they introduce power ups for getting collectibles that don't work, the enemies and puzzles become too powerful considering that you don't really "level up" at all in the game, the floors start getting more and more simplistic but somehow more annoying, and all of this was enough to just make me quit the game. The first part was so great I don't know what happened to make the game so tedious. I would almost recommend it for the first half alone but it's just not worth it considering how annoyed you'll be.
Luke Cage (2016)
So much potential that was barely realised
Luke Cage, although not in the top three of marvel-Netflix shows is still really good. I think that it has the best presentation and aesthetic but lacks somewhat in execution. The latter half of season one takes a dive in quality and the final seconds of the show ruins the character of Luke Cage in my opinion. But I still think it had the potential to be so much better. If Disney gave this show another shot with the same people but maybe gave some course correction along the way with the other people from the marvel-Netflix shows it could be a really good stylish show.
The Amazing World of Gumball (2011)
Top five cartoons of all time
This cartoon is just hands down amazing. It balances humor, characters and plot perfectly in eleven minutes for absolutely every episode of the show. It's one of the funniest cartoons of all time in my eyes. Absolutely a ten out of ten!
Dave Chappelle: The Closer (2021)
Pure art
This is really a perfect Chappelle special with more comedy, wisdom and heart than any other comedian. Had me laughing all the way through until I was in tears. Perfect comedy, perfect art 10/10.
No Time to Die (2021)
Don't understand the complaints
People really did not vibe with this as hard as I did. It seems like people are too hung up on old time Bond and says this movie is to political. Old Bond is dated and this movie is not political. Just because a black female is a 00 agent and probably will be the main character in the future does not mean the movie is political or trying to "woke". This movie has great action, stunts, music and a pretty good pacing for this long of a movie. Even though it is pretty lengthy it still seems like a few minor things were cut, which could confuse someone. But it's not hard to put the pieces together by the end. Other than that I loved it, great cinema experience which has you at the edge of your seat and almost in tears by the end.
