Absolutely loved. I hung onto every word.

My biggest feedback is that I felt nothing. The emotion just wasn’t there somehow. Everything felt forced.

I can only imagine the first season received feedback of disappointment that the Addams as a family weren’t in it more and they took that feedback and gave us all the Addams goodness in season 2. On episode 2 and loving how much of the Addams shenanigans are in it. Have fun, I am! 🖤

This show was so much fun, I would definitely watch another season!!!!

Stranger Things has a place in my heart, but it isn’t without its faults. Season 3 is my favorite of them all and season 4 is big oof. SO MUCH of season 4 is incredible…Eddy, Steve & Dusty, Vecna, communicating through the lights again, the brutal way Vecna takes his victims, the Max storyline (had me in TEARS). But there’s so much it gets wrong too…I feel they did Will’s character a total disservice, they made him act in ways that I didn’t feel were authentic at all (like how he just watches El being bullied?) no way. I hated Mike & Eleven & Will whatever was going on. It was way too dramatic, like being hit over the head, Mike also felt wrong to me, he always watched out for Will and now he’s what just completely tone deaf? I guess. I also could not stand the amount of emphasis placed on Eleven. I like Eleven, I don’t love her. I watch Stranger Things for almost every single character other than Eleven. Please tell me I’m not alone? I literally have to fast forward through the scenes of her and “papa” ugh I hate that too. Way too long of a season, way too many scenes of Eleven breathing heavily and staring and crying that’s all she does it’s beyond annoying. Visually the show is amazing duh. I loved the groupings this season of who was working together. Oh and I also loved the whole Hopper Russia Joyce Murray story! Was super entertaining. I anxiously await season 5 but, as I’m sure everyone else does, I feel nervous about how they are going to pull it off with so much time having gone by and the kids no longer being kids. I think its charm decreases the longer it goes on. All that being said, I’m about to throw on Season 1 Ep 1 for the 5th time 😂

Exactly what a horror movie should be. Was so much fun. Highly recommend!!!

Saltburn is fucking awesome. I wish that it had been received differently because the buzz around it made me feel like it was going to be a weird tasteless thing and it couldn’t have been more opposite. It was thoughtful, precise, sexy, stressful. I absolutely loved it. Highly recommend!

I knew I’d see reviews saying that this movie was slow and had almost “no plot.” And my challenge is this. There is one scene in the movie where Shelly is dancing to a vintage dance tape of a ballet, juxtaposed with the new circus show in which the performer is in latex, screaming, crying, doing comedy bits, smashing plates, twirling plates on sticks, and balancing plates on a stick protruding from her vagina. The contrast is alarming and represents what is expected from performances nowadays for us, as viewers, to be entertained. We are always demanding for more, bigger, brighter, better. More things to captivate our attention. A beautiful woman in a sequin outfit isn’t enough for us anymore, when it used to be unheard of. So my challenge to people seeing this movie is to apply that theme to their perspective going into it. Don’t demand more of it. It wore its heart on its sleeve and didn’t oversaturate us with bells, whistles, tricks and hidden meanings. Let it be simple. Simplicity is why it worked.

Movie isn’t even over yet and I’ve come to the reviews which is always a bad sign lol what even was this???? What was the point?????? What were they trying to tell us? I’m so disappointed by this movie. It was just kick after kick while someone was down with absolutely zero depth or explanation. I could dig through it to find some underlying theme or meaning but they don’t deserve my time like that.

This just didn’t work for me. I put off watching it for years and now with the new one coming out I figured it was time. I think I mostly just don’t feel anything “Joker” about it. Like they took a comic book villain and made him way too human. It’s too human. The Joker has always been charming and mad and calculating. This is just….depressing. It’s also boring. Not much going on to make any of the discomfort worth sitting through. It’s just. It’s not it. I’m disappointed. The best scene thus far in the entire film is him dying his hair green… idk. I think I just miss the dark knight.
