 Trigun: Stargaze [anime, television] I DON'T KNOW, THE FIRST ONE WAS LIKE, KINDA BAD BUT HAD HEART AND WAS CHARMING, I THINK I JUST ACTUALLY DISLIKE THIS ONE. IT JUST FELT LIKE WOLFWOOD FIGHTING AN ENDLESS SERIES OF WEIGHTLESS BOSS FIGHTS AND ALL THE IDEA OF ANY SORT OF THEMES OR MEANING FELT GONE, AND EVERYTHING FELT DUMBED DOWN. LIKE GOD, THE CONVERSATION ABOUT THE MECHANICS OF HAIR COLOR FELT LIKE IT WENT ON FOREVER AND WAS LIKE, OVEREXPLAINING THE MOST STRAIGHTFORWARD VISUAL STORYTELLING POSSIBLE. THE ENDING WAS ALSO OFFENSIVELY BAD. LIKE THE MARVEL MOVIE THING WHERE THE VILLIAN IS SO ABSURDLY OBJECTIVELY CORRECT ON SOME POINTS  THEN THEY MAKE HIM A GIANT MONSTER SO IT DOESN'T MATTER. MERYL BEING LIKE "OH MAYBE OUR DECENDENTS WILL FIX THIS" AND THE WHOLE "THEY LOVE BEING SLAVES, THEY WOULD DIE OF LONELYNESS IF THEY DON'T" IS STRAIGHT TRASH WRITING.  PS. ON THE OTHER HAND A BATTLE SAXAPHONE IS EXTREME EARLY 90S WRITING AND I LOVE THEY KEPT THAT ONE P...

 Project Hail Mary [movie] IT'S FUNNY, THE BOOK HAD A THING WHERE IT WAS CLEARLY STARTING OUT BEING ACTUAL HARD SCI-FI BUT THAT WAS TOO HARD SO IT TURNED INTO LIKE, A COMPUTER ADVENTURE GAME WHERE EVERY CHAPTER WAS SOLVED BY KNOWING EXACTLY ONE MIDDLE SCHOOL SCIENCE PRINCIPAL, THEN THE LAST THIRD WAS LIKE, BUDDY ACTION ADVENTURE. IT'S FUNNY THIS CUT OUT THE HARD SCI-FI AND THE ADVENTURE GAME STUFF, BUT ALSO CUT OUT MOST OF THE ACTION SCENES AND WENT JUST FOR ROCKY BUDDY MOVIE. IT WORKED REALLY WELL. THIS WAS A V. CHARMING MOVIE. PS. I KINDA FEEL LIKE THIS WOULD BE A REALLY WEIRD MOVIE TO SEE IF YOU DIDN'T READ THE BOOK, THEY GLOSS OVER LIKE 90% OF EVERYTHING BUT THE BUDDY STUFF. WHICH IS GOOD, BUT I WONDER IF THE PLOT IS EVEN COMPREHENSIBLE IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW? 

 Trigun: Stampede [anime,tevelvision] I WATCHED MOST OF THIS ON THE PLANE, IT'S SO ALMOST GOOD. LIKE THE 3D/2D ANIMATION DIDN'T REALLY WORK BUT IT ALMOST DID AND LIKE THE ORIGINAL HAD A BIG ISSUE WHERE IT WAS A BUNCH OF EPISODIC SILLY STUFF THEN IN LIKE THE LAST TWO EPISODES WAS LIKE "I DID NOT KNOW YOU WERE A COWBOY ANGEL FROM OUTER SPACE" AND THIS ONE MADE THE STORY INTEGRATE WAY MORE FROM THE START, BUT THEN MESSED UP THE EPISODIC PART SO THINGS WOULD JUST START AND STOP MIDEPISODE. SO PEOPLE JUST BECOME FRIENDS DURING COMERCIAL BREAKS AND STUFF, MEH? PS. I WAS REALLY MAD THE PLANTS DIDN'T LOOK LIKE LIGHTBULBS ANYMORE THEN THERE WAS ONE SCENE WHERE "MILLIONS KNIVES" USED A MILLION KNIVES TO FULLY LIFT OUT THE MECHNISM AND IT LOOKED LIKE A DIFFERENT KIND OF MODERN LIGHTBULB AND I LIKED THAT

 Five Nights at Freddy's 2 [movie] THIS MOVIE FELT WAY MORE INCOMPREHENSIBLE THAN THE OTHER ONE. USUALLY EVEN IF YOU DON'T KNOW DETAILS OF THE *LORE* YOU CAN JUST KINDA FOLLOW ALONG BY VIBES, BUT THIS FELT LIKE A REAL 'NO, WAIT, WHO IS THAT" MOVIE. I GUESS I'M ALWAYS A FAN OF "CALLING FOR HELP AND NO ONE ANSWERING" HORROR MOVIES AT LEAST. I ALSO REALLY LIKE THE "IT'S ET BUT THE THING IS TRANSPARENTLY MONSTEROUS AND EVIL" TYPE PLOT THIS HAD FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES AND WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT MOVIE.  PS. THIS HAD THE ANNABELLE PROBLEM. THE ORIGINAL FREDDY CHARACTERS MAKE SENSE, THEY ARE CLEARLY TOO SCARY TO BE REAL BUT ARE ON THE SCALE OF THE CHUCKY CHEESE ANIMATRONICS THAT ARE THEMSELVES INHERENTLY CREEPY. LIKE HOW RAGGIDY ANNE IS A CREEPY LOOKING DOLL. BUT THEN LIKE, WHY WOULD ANYONE EVER MAKE MARIONETTE LOOK LIKE THAT? LIKE IT WORKS FOR A HORROR THING TO BE "WHAT IF A CREEPY REAL LIFE THING WAS ACTUALLY EVIL" MORE THAN "WHAT IF THI...

 Zootopia 2 [movie] THIS WAS A LOT MORE NATIONAL TREASURE THAN THE FIRST MOVIE, BUT IT WAS STILL PRETTY GOOD. I FEEL LIKE THERE WAS SOME WEIRD REWRITE WITH THE WHOLE THROUGH LINE OF GARY THE SNAKE, LIKE THE CLIMAX OF HIM SAYING IT'S OKAY DIDN'T REALLY FEEL LIKE IT CONNECTED TO ANY ISSUE ANYONE WAS HAVING. (THE CLIMAX OF NICK SAYING "AGREE TO DISAGREE" WAS PRETTY GOOD. ) PS. IT'S EXTREMELY FUNNY HOW MUCH SHIPPING THIS MOVIE HAD. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT IS FOR. 

 Sinners [movie] I HAVE SUCH A HARD TIME WATCHING MOVIES I KNOW ARE ACTUALLY GOOD. I ONLY WANT TO WATCH MOVIES THAT ARE BAD AND SUCK. BUT I WATCHED THIS AND IT'S ACTUALLY GOOD. PS. DID THIS TIME PERIOD EVER EXIST? IT FELT LIKE A VERY COWBOY TOWN FOR THE 1930S.
