Suicide Squad [movie]

THIS MOVIE WASN'T BAD ENOUGH TO BE AWFUL BUT IT WASN'T REALLY GOOD EITHER. ALSO I WAS GOING TO WRITE THAT IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS BUILT OF THE SAME SENSIBILITIES AS SUCKER PUNCH AND WHILE I WAS WALKING HOME I REALIZED THIS WAS LITERALLY ZACK SNYDER AND THAT IS WHO THAT IS AND I FEEL LIKE I NEED CREDIT FOR MAKING THAT OBSERVATION INDEPENDENTLY WHILE NOT REMEMBERING THAT THESE MOVIES LITERALLY ARE DIRECTED BY THE SAME PERSON.

 
PS. DID THIS MOVIE GET A BULK DISCOUNT ON HELICOPTERS? EVERY OTHER SCENE IS SOMEONE BEING IN A HELICOPTER THAT CRASHES AND IT LITERALLY NEVER ACTUALLY HAS ANY EFFECT ON THE PLOT. LIKE 3 OR 4 HELICOPTERS CRASH WITH PEOPLE IN THEM AT DIFFERENT POINTS IN THE MOVIE AND IT NEVER MATTERS ONE BIT.

Encanto [movie]

 Encanto [movie] I FEEL LIKE THIS WAS A GOOD MOVIE THAT WAS WAY TOO UNFOCUSED TO BE A GREAT MOVIE. LIKE THE WHOLE OPENING SONG WAS A JOKE THAT THEY WERE INTRODUCING TOO MANY CHARACTERS THEN IT FELT LIKE ALL THE ISSUES EVERYONE WAS HAVING WAS SUPER LIGHT BECAUSE THERE WAS TOO MANY CHARACTERS. LIKE THE WHOLE "I HATE MY SISTER/OH I'M SO MAD I MAD A CACTUS/ACTUALLY I'M HAPPY NOW" ARC IS LIKE A MINUTE OF SCREEN TIME FOR NO REASON.  PS. I FEEL LIKE REWRITING IT SO ANIMAL KID WAS HIDING UNDER THE BED MORE SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE GRANDMA WOULD HATE HIM IF HE DIDN'T HAVE A GOOD POWER WOULD HAVE MADE THE CONFLICT SEEM LESS PULLED OUT OF NO WHERE. LIKE A GRANDMA HAVING TOO HIGH EXPECTATIONS IS REASONABLE BUT IT'S NEVER REALLY ESTABLISHED AS A PROBLEM UNTIL IT'S A PROBLEM.

Magicats! [book]

 Magicats! [book] Space-Time for Springers : This is just "my cat is sad" but wacky. A kitten convinced it will grow up to be human.  The Game of Rat and Dragon : This is some real extreme nonsense 1970s sci-fi. Things from the dark eat you if you travel through warp space, but human brains are too slow to react to the millisecond attacks, so they have to make psychic entanglement with strong hunter cats. There is vague romantic undertones to this.  The Cat from Hell: Oh, it's that stephen king story.  It's that thing from the tales from the darkside movie. The one king doesn't know how cats or mouths work.  Out Of Place: I don't remember anything about this story and have just reskimmed it right now and still can't tell you anything about it.  Schrödinger's Cat: I absolutely love Ursula K Leguin, but oof, this book just didn't work. It has a strong feeling of a metaphor based on some not quite right 1970s pop understanding of physics. Maybe it'
