12/2 - Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

I like this movie more than the original. I love how deceptively simple the mystery is, as is the metaphor of the Glass Onion itself. I also love how detestable most characters in this movie are. And of course, Benoit Blanc is amazing.

12/1 - Knives Out

What a good film, reminds me of why I love a good mystery. I love the twists and turns this movie takes. Even though I was spoiled long ago about who the culprit was, actually seeing the journey to the reveal was spectacular. I need to watch Glass Onion soon.

11/30 - The Naked Gun

Better than I expected it to be, but it's not better than the original movie. It made me chuckle more than I was expecting it too, which is good because I rarely laugh at all when watching a comedy movie alone. I love how this film revels in its absurdity.

11/29 - Mr Popper's Penguins

I think the worst a movie can be for me is when a movie thinks it's funny, and it ends up being annoying instead. Take a shot every time a generic fart sound effect plays in this movie. I don't know why, but it's used ridiculously often here.

11/28 - The Mist

I don't really care for "Humans are the Real Monsters" type storylines, and this one isn't really good in that front either. The way it talks about human nature is also just, cynical, which I don't care too much for. I thought the ending was great though.

11/27 - Free Birds

I just don't care? It's far from the worst animation movie I've seen, but it's in no way good. It's just boring, its jokes don't land, and the only thing that got a reaction out of me was the Angry Birds reference. Just kind of a nothing movie all around.

11/26 - Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

I've meant to play this game for years now, and I'm so happy I've finally gotten around to it. It's so interesting to see how much of the DNA of Mario RPGs were already here. Though god, the depth perception issues were BAD.

11/26 - The Wizard of Oz

I can respect this movie for what it is, and it has a lot of elements that are great. But I just really dislike stories that end with "and the protagonist woke up from their dream, it was all a dream", kinda sours the whole narrative most of the time.

11/25 - Mechanical Violator Hakaider

This movie is awesome. Genuinely one of the best fight scenes I've watched in this movie, I loved how much you feel the weight of this heavy robot fighting, and how the environment gets destroyed is magnificent. This movie is awesome.

11/24 - Summer Wars

I really liked the family in this movie, I find a lot of narratives about family go too far in the "you have to accept them because they're family" idea, but I think this one balances it really well. Also all of the stuff in OZ is absolutely gorgeous.

11/23 - Kirby: Star Allies

It's underwhelming, but I wouldn't really say this is a bad Kirby game, it's just surrounded by some of the best of the series. The final boss is the obvious stand out of the game, and I really appreciate having all of the Dream Friends.

11/23 - Freddy Got Fingered

This movie was entirely antithetical to my entire existence and it was extremely painful to watch. Never again, Never again, Never Again, Never Again, Never Again, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN.

11/23 - Z.A.T.O.: I Love the World and Everything In It

This visual novel was really good, but I don't think it connected with me to the same extent that it did with other people. I really loved the characters in the game, and that ending segment was spectacular though.

11/22 - Darkman

I wasn't fully paying attention to the movie, I'll admit, but it was decently entertaining. I really don't have anything else to say about this movie, but I watched it, and it was pretty solid.

11/21 - Kirby: Planet Robobot

Yeah this is the best one. I love everything to do with the Robobot, it blew my mind when I found out it had its own set of copy abilities. And everything to do with the final boss was one of the most exciting things in any Kirby game I've played.

11/21 - Angel Dust

As much as I loved the atmosphere, and mood that this movie had (its so green), I just couldn't grasp what this movie was trying to say. I hope there's something I missed, because especially with the psychiatrist guy, I could not tell what this film was doing.

11/20 - Linda Linda Linda

Genuinely such a lovely film, and I think it hit harder for me because I was in a guitar group back in High School. The entire ending sequence of the movie brought me back to that time, embarrassments and all, and that's something really special.

11/19 - Rule of Rose

While it's combat isn't great, every other element of this game is genuinely spectacular. Its atmosphere is on another level, I loved exploring around this decrepit airship. And god, the narrative is something I don't even think I can do justice describing.

11/19 - Noroi: The Curse

I usually dont like found footage horror, but I think this movie is spectacular in how it uses it. The way it shifts around its perspective, and ties all of the story's loose ends together really impressed me, and kept me enthralled for the entire movie.

11/17 - Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Genuinely this game rocks. I loved playing through each level (even if the gyro segments weren't perfect), Hypernova was really fun, and I think Beetle is one of my favorite copy abilities in the series. I hope Taranza has recovered from all of that.

11/16 - Pokémon Ultra Moon

I ultimately prefer Sun and Moon due to how the Ultra games weaken the story, however these are still good and well-designed Pokémon games. I really do appreciate the increase in difficulty in some areas, even if some Totems felt annoying to fight.

11/16 - The Wizard

I liked this movie a lot more than I was expecting to, but I was expecting to despise it so keep that in mind. It ended up just being a really cute, and funnier-than-expected movie that I appreciated watching.

11/15 - Ichi the Killer

I do not fully grasp this movie, but yet I am both impressed and intrigued. This movie seems to tackle sadomasochistic voyeurism in such an interesting way, and I ended up really liking how this movie ends. I need to watch more of Miike's works.
