I really really enjoyed it. Almost as much, if not JUST as much, as spiderman: no-way home. Justin Reitman handled this movie beautifully and in my opinion, did his father proud. Additionally, the Harold Ramis dedication was heart-warming and fulfilling. Didn't feel forced or underdone. They got it exactly right. The film had the Perfect amount of nostalgic referencing, they didn't overdo anything to fit some PC agenda and Paul Rudd didn't feel like a ring in cameo which I thought he would. The visual effects tiptoed perfectly between old school 80s (even using classic animatronics) and used the exact right amount of modern CGI without overdoing it or pulling it away from a nostalgic vibe. It felt like an 80s Ghostbusters, whilst also feeling new and classic. Wonderfully balanced. I have to say also, without any spoilers...Olivia Wylds character was perfectly portrayed. Good casting choice. 5/5 from me and an absolute galaxy of improvement from the previous re-imagining/modernisation of Ghostbusters from a few years ago. I could not reccomend this film more.

Absolutely garbage. I don't know what the Wachowskis were thinking when they wrote the script that basically retconned the entire trilogy...but the idea of doing so (combined with the atrocious recasting) left us with something that felt like it should have been nostalgic, but felt more like a cheap live action Wreck it Ralph with all of it's callbacks and references to a series passed.

The underwhelmingness of this game vastly outweighs any positive points of the game. Truly a disappointment and not worth the money. Wait til it's on discount or sale

I have seen Airbender many times over, over the many many years. I remember watching korra a few years ago all the way through, and pretty much agreeing with what most people say about the series; that when watched consecutively immediately after Airbender, it simply cant hold a candle to the original. However, this evening i find myself watching Korra after going almost 4 years since watching either series, and i must say...As a standalone series it truly does hold its own. To be back in the world of the Avatar again is something nostalgic and inspirational. It really does bring back the originality of the story. It feels much more compact than Airbender, as this series revolves almost entirely around Korra and her adventures in republic city, where she does (after all) only have to master Airbending, unlike her predeccessor whom of which was required to obtain three new artforms (Earth, water and fire bending.) from all around the globe. Korra relies much more on relationship and family driven story with some adventure and crime thrown in to balance it out. It definitely works, and is well deserving of one of the better young-adult themed series out there. At least at the time of its release. Frankly i cant wait for another Avatar series, and with the looming live-action remake in the works (written by the orignial developers of the original series), i feel like we have yet to see the last of the world of the Avatar!

So ive never been a trekky. When i was a kid in the 90s, i rememmber watching Star Trek First Contact one night, and it was wonderful! a few years later, i caught Star Trek Nemesis. Also quite awesome! I went back a few days ago to binge watch the picard movies (I am aware of the series' but havnt gotten around to them yet) And once again, i love First Contact and nemesis. However Insurrection felt incredibly sluggish and even had the filming style/Special Effects fo a 2-part television film unlike its other sequels and prequels. Which i found quite odd. Definitely a boring addition to the series.
