Masters of the Universe [movie]

 Masters of the Universe [movie] IT IS INSANE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TELL THIS WAS MEANT TO BE "BARBIE 2" AND ABOUT MASCULINITY THE WAY BARBIE WAS AN ESSAY ON FEMININITY. IT HAS SO MUCH SETUP AND LIKE, THREADS ABOUT THAT THEN JUST KINDA TURNS INTO STAR WARS FOR A WHILE AND FORGETS ABOUT IT.  I FEEL LIKE USUALLY THE MOST ANNOYING THING ON ANY REBOOT IS WHEN THEY SPENT TIME SNEERING AT HOW THE ORIGINAL IS, BUT MAKING THE STUPID NAMES A DIAGETIC THING WHERE HE WAS JUST A LITTLE KID TRYING TO REMEMBER DRAWINGS HE MADE IS A PRETTY FUNNY CONCEPT.  PS. THIS IS A VERY COLD TAKE AND EVERYONE HATES JARAD LETO BUT LIKE, I'D AT LEAST CONCEPTUALLY GET GIVING SKELETOR A DIFFERENT VOICE IF HE WAS LIKE, PLAYED AS A MORE SERIOUS VILLIAN. BUT LIKE, HE'S WAY MORE EXPLICITLY CAMP AND GAY IN THIS THAN HE EVER WAS, AND HE HAS A SILLY VOICE, SO LIKE, WHY A *DIFFERENT* SILLY VOICE THAN HIS ICONIC ONE?

The End of Oak Street [movie]

 The End of Oak Street [movie] HELL YEAH, THIS MOVIE RULES. IT'S THE MOST 80S MOVIE IMAGINABLE. LIKE IT IS SET IN THE 80S AND HAS SOME "KIDS ON BIKES' GENRE STUFF, BUT MOSTLY IT JUST EXTREMEY FEELS LIKE AN EPISODE OF OUTER LIMITS AND LEGITIMATELY RULES HOW THE FANTASITCAL STUFF DOESN'T EVEN START TILL LIKE A THIRD OF THE MOVIE AND HOW NO ONE EVER REMOTELY WORKS TOGETHER. I THINK THIS MOVIE IS GETTING SOME AMOUNT OF HYPE NOW IT'S ALMOST OUT OF THEATERS BUT I FEEL LIKE IT WAS GIVEN THE MOST GENERIC TITLE EVER (IT WAS ORIGINALLY 'THE END OF FLOWERVILLE" OR SOMETHING) AND HAVING ZERO ADVERTISING (AND NO INDICATION IN ANY WAY WHAT THE MOVIE EVEN IS ABOUT) ABSOLUTELY KILLED THIS KICK ASS DINOSAUR MOVIE. ALSO THE ENDING WAS KINDA LAME BUT I LIKE THE DUMB O'BRIAN TWIST AND I LIKE THE RANDOM GIRLFRIEND GIRL HAS A TIME TWIN IN LIKE ONE SHOT AND IT'S NEVER COMMENTED AT ALL.  PS. 2MUCH CAT VIOLENCE

Goodnight Punpun Vol #3 [book, comic]

 Goodnight Punpun Vol #3 [book, comic] I FINISHED READING THIS A WHILE AGO, BUT DIDN'T WRITE A REVIEW. I DON'T KNOW, THIS REVIEW IS GOING TO BE ABOUT THE SAME AS VOLUME 1 AND 2, I DO LIKE THIS, BUT I AM STRUGGLING BECAUSE THIS IS LIKE ONE OF THOSE MEDIA I AVOIDED FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE IT WAS "TOO GOOD" AND NOW I'M READING IT AND I LIKE IT BUT NOT AS MUCH AS HYPED UP. PS. (IT'S EASY TO PRETEND I DON'T RELATE TO IT BECAUSE I RELATE TO IT SO MUCH I'M IN DENIAL, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT IS REAL)

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever [movie]

 Black Panther: Wakanda Forever [movie] I HAVE WATCHED EVERY SINGLE MARVEL MOVIE.  DURING 'PHASE 4' THE MOVIES GOT SO BORING I MOSTLY STOPPED WATCHING THEM,  BUT OVER TIME I ENDED UP CATCHING EVERY DUMB 10 RINGS AND ETERNALS AND WHATEVER AGAINST MY WILL, SO NOW I WAS IN THE UNCOMFORTABLE PLACE WHERE I HAD LIKE A YEAR WHERE I HAD SEEN "EVERY MARVEL MOVIE BUT BLACK PATHER 2" WHICH LIKE, WAS NOT INTENTIONAL BUT *FEELS* LIKE SOMETHING SOMEONE WOULD DO INTENTIONALLY. SO I WAS FORCE TO WATCH THIS. (IT WAS VERY PHASE 4 BORING) PS. NAMOR HAS SERIOUS HYDROX ISSUES WHERE HE ACTUALLY IS THE FIRST OREO COOKIE BUT NO ONE KNOWS THAT SO IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE THEY GAVE HIM A NEW MORE DIFFERENT DEAL THAN AQUAMAN. IT DOES FEEL KINDA WEIRD THEY DID THIS IN *THIS* MOVIE. LIKE IT KINDA GOES TO A WEIRD PLACE OF "BLACK PEOPLE'S NATURAL ENEMY: BLUE LATINOS"

Spider-Man: Brand New Day [movie]

 Spider-Man: Brand New Day [movie] I DON'T KNOW, I LIKED THIS WELL ENOUGH BUT IT FEELS SO MUCH LIKE THE THUNDERBOLTS* MOVIE. I GUESS THAT'S FINE?  I FEEL LIKE IN GENERAL SPIDERMAN HAS A WEEZER PROBLEM WHERE IT'S GOOD WHEN THEY ARE LOSERS BUT THE SECOND THEY ARE SINGING ABOUT BRING RICH ON ISLAND THEY SUCK AND EVERYONE HATES THEM. THIS WAS LIKE A WEIRD ORIGIN LITE REDO MOVIE WHERE HE GOT TO LEARN TO USE A WEB SHOOTER AND FALL ON HIS BACK AGAIN AND LIKE GIRLS THAT HE CAN'T TELL. THAT'S FINE I GUESS. PS. IT FEELS SO WEIRD THE WHOLE MOVIE WAS ABOUT WEARING OR TAKING OFF HIS MASK AND HE IS LIKE, DOING FLOCK CAMERA STUFF A BUNCH SO CASUALLY AND IT'S NOT EVEN THE RIGHT PERSON AND THE MOVIE JUST LIKE... NEVER SEEMS TO CONNECT THOSE PLOT LINES?

Fabulous Bodies [book, audiobook]

 Fabulous Bodies [book, audiobook]    I REALLY NON IRONICALLY LIKE CHUCK TINGLE AS A HORROR WRITER. I'VE READ ALL BUT ONE OF HIS BOOKS NOW, I DID REALLY LIKE THIS ONE BUT I FEEL LIKE I COULD NOT LOVE IT FOR A REALLY DUMB REASON:  I DON'T KNOW WHO EDDIE MICHAELS IS SUPPOSED TO BE. LIKE THE WHOLE BOOK IS ABOUT A DEAD 70S/80S QUEER ICON ROCK STAR, AND LIKE, THERE WAS LIKE 20 DIFFERENT 70S/80S QUEER ROCK STARS BUT LIKE, IMAGINING HIM AS FAKE DAVID BOWIE IS REAL DIFFERENT THAN FAKE GEORGE MICHAELS OR FAKE PRINCE OR FAKE FREDDY MERCURY AND I GET HE WAS JUST SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE, GENERIC OFF BRAND, BUT IT REALLY BOTHERED ME THAT I COULD NEVER REALLY PIN DOWN WHO I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IMAGINING. AT SOME POINT I FEEL LIKE I JUST STARTED PICTUREING CARTOON BEETLEJUICE INSTEAD? AS FLAMBOYANT SHOWY ZOMBIE GUY? I DON'T KNOW! IT'S STUPID BUT IT DRAGGED DOWN MY WHOLE ENJOYMENT!  PS. I ALSO KINDA FEEL LIKE IT SET UP A BUNCH OF MORE EMOTIONAL HOOKS BUT DIDN'T PAY THEM OFF. IT DEFI...

The Odyssey [movie]

 The Odyssey [movie] I DON'T KNOW, THIS MOVIE WAS DECENT. IT FEELS LIKE THERE WAS SOME SORT OF INSANE BACKLASH TO THIS AND EVERYONE DECIDED TO HATE IT FOR SOME REASON? LIKE FIRST RIGHTWING STUFF ON "ANTI-WOKE" GROUNDS BUT THEN IT JUST KINDA SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE DECIDED A BUNCH OF SUPER NITPICKY REASONS THIS IS BAD? WHO KNOWS. IT WAS FINE.  PS. ON THE OTHER HAND EVERYONE WAS 100% RIGHT ABOUT THE WRITING AROUND SEA PEOPLE/ZEUS RULE. IT FELT INSANE. IT FELT LIKE EVERY 25 MINUTES THE WHOLE MOVIE WOULD STOP TO READ WIKIPEDIA ABOUT IT. LIKE IT EVEN WORKS AS LIKE, CONCEPTUAL CORE FOR THE MOVIE, IT WAS EVEN A CLEVER LITTLE PULL. BUT I FEEL LIKE MY BRAIN WAS BLEEDING OR SOMETHING WHEN SOMEONE SAID 'OUR BRONZE AGE CIVILIZATION IS COLLAPSING", NONE OF THE REST OF THE WRITING WAS LIKE THAT! (ALSO THE MOVIE STARTS WITH ONE SECOND OF THE OCEAN BEING RED. FAN SERVICE, I GUESS!)
