fantastic four: first steps (2025)

it was okay, i think i was a bit bored honestly. put another one in the bank for a character that is a Mother tm that doesn't make her personality all about her child . 965 radiation proof plastic items s

superman (2025)

there has to be some way to balance the whimsy and thrill of 60s comics translated into action movies with removing the misogyny characteristic of those comics. we are so close!! come on james gunn, you can do it ! 72 sun as hope metaphors

always be my maybe (2019)

is it already autumn cuz we are getting real corny in here. asians trying to do white people things, but cool to see americanised asian parents who care about the freedom and experiential development of their children and such. lol. another perspective on the asian-american experience. better than other romcoms honestly, i thought the take on like "having a partner that doesn't shit on successful ma-wife" narrative was kinda awsum n refreshing ... pretty decent romcom .64 asian-fusion dishes

kiki's delivery service (1989)

i cried 7 times. 100 herring and pumpkin pot pies

the legend of korra (2012-2014)

ive watched this show like 3 times and every time i feel some type of way about it. this time, i found the character writing to be particularly egregious. there are far too many characters, and the writers chose to expand on every character that was related to the last airbender cast, giving very little space for this show's team avatar. so i loved all of aang's relations, especially tenzin who imo they cud have paralleled his development with korra but hte writers are far too short-sighted for that. but then idk WTH happened season 3 and 4, no one was doing anything, and tenzin was like barely there. why ???? and they gave korra a beautiful mental health and redemption arc thing for the final season but it was completely marred by everyone's incompetence! don't get me started on the politics. let's just say...these writers don't know anything about anything. people still hate on korra as a character too much, and it's important to have flawed characters, and i appreciate so much that korra is who she is . and also, i mean lbr, the art and animation is beautiful. and the music and soundscape is truly breath-taking, i really need to know what the artists behind this were thinking; there's so many little intricacies that really make me perk up. it's a true shame they let this art go to waste and fumbled the story/characters hard . 28 scenes of henry rollins bad voice acting

in the mood for love (2000)

big ups on media literacy, the blue curtain really does mean sadness. DC's lantern corps could never harness the power of the emotional spectrum like this movie. prepare for heartache. 62 tiffin boxes of noodles

ne zha (2019)

i kinda hate this animation style, but overlooked for surprisingly cool and creative fight sequences. also overall had a pretty good message to tell. i m also a big fan of the movie just like blatantly stealing music or scenes from different IPs and not even bothering to switch things up a little bit lol but also warning because this movie doesn't shy away from body fluids lol??? not like blood or whatever but an abnormal amount of body fluids and farts as jokes . 597 paintbrushes

moonlight (2016)

so tender and beautiful. this peep show type camera work really did make me cry (positive). 87 lingering looks

the phoenician scheme (2025)

its my second wes anderson movie and i was like 'isn't he kinda orientalist?' and i googled it and there were like 3 articles saying the same thing and then this guy got very mad abt it when i brought it up in d group chat. it's true though ?????? i want to fuck benicio del toro. 75 set pieces that are the only form of substance to a wes anderson movie

black dog (2024)

i watch a Video Essay tm about midwest emo while eating breakfast and next thing i know im watching a movie about a boom and bust town in northern china. there's a thread here about the vibe that comes after a town has outlived it's use for the economic flourishing of its nation (many such countries). the movie is heavy handed in it's metaphors, and i think it pulls it off very well. i think this movie is fun. i think it's interesting. very cute and sweet and despondent. does the dog die dot com? yes. so spoiler alert for tears . 354 CGI animals

trainspotting (1996)

*frank reynolds i get it gif* super fun, very like zoomer brained cinematography ? 68 cans of mushroom soup

ingrid goes west (2017)

quite strange but nonetheless funny movie.........very interesting. yes, kind of a product of its time but also pertinent or? idk!!! we have snippets of ingrid's like, why she is the way she is...idk felt still like it was lacking of something but maybe its ok to be intentionally vague. maybe thats the point, u still only know a surface level of everyone, even ingrid. hmmm....78 candles

grabbers (2012)

this was so good and ate the fuck down. just a silly, silly, goofy fun time. don't watch if you HATE fun or are a recovering alcoholic (these don't have to be mutual events). 607 ethanol

zoolander (2001); rush hour (1998)

these movies r truly a product of their time....satisfying to watch and so dumb and funny and i hope we never make anything like them again . 9 problematic remarks

thunderbolts* (2025)

surprisingly decent for the third phase or whatever of marvel movies. nice n interesting issue to tackle but dam...i wish they wud just make like an a24 movie n make it good instead of shoe-horning these storylines into the IP. someone re-make wandavision too that wud eat down . 46...shadows?

beef (2023; tv show; rewatch)

i rewatched this and i have to say this is truly one of the best pieces of visual art u will ever see ever in a long time. amazing, rich, full of colour life, editting, videography, cinematography, audio mixing, acting, script, dialogue. perfection. not least because i personally feel no other show truly encompasses the trauma or dynamics of first n second gen immigrants w families, the western world, within their own community, even the american dream question mark ,n on top of that tackling the gaping hole of depression n existentialism. 99999999999 chairs

miss night and day (2024)

ok this shit was sooo long n obviously dragged out by the kdrama trope of not communicating anything !!!. when it was silly and fun it was perfect tho. idk its like the plots too complicated for u to leave it on in the bg, so u have to actually pay attention but then it's also so slow n boring and covoluted that u dont really want that. worst of two worlds. the love story was mad cute tho. 58 bottles of soju

severance s1/s2 (2022-)

oh my my my . okay . ermm..yea . i get d hype. can we talk about the last ep of s2 though? absolute cinema. throwback!! to 90s sci-fi and such. put it on mubi. ughhhhhhh just watch the whole show for last ep of season 2. 67 erasers

his three daughters (2023)

the word charming came to mind watching this movie. it's obviously heart-aching, the topic of grief will never be accurate or easy to handle on screen. the acting and pacing left me magnetised. a beautiful film. 56 joints

the delinquents (2023)

expectations, expectations....what i was expecting: 3 hour heist movie. what i wasn't expecting....1.5 hour heist movie, 1.5 hour existential movies about yearning for freedom. if i had known! maybe i wouldn't have been annoyed and fell asleep. manage your expectations with this one! it's for the art-heads fr. 12 eggs

nope (2022)

ughhhh i love you steven yeunnnnnnnnn . 85 horses

the decameron (2024)

suffering from a case of chronic not-enough-episodes-rushed-ending-itis, this was so fun and epic. everyone on imdb who compares it to the yawnfest og texts (i haven't read them) is a hater. u gotta appreciate it for what this show is: delving into the lives of a bunch of pompous, bougie aristocrats during the plague! filomena got let off way too easily, the silent ending to pampinea was satisfying and stratilia is cunt (positive). straight up. actually, everyone was interesting. panfilo4lyfe. i love character-driven shows. 102 ancient wooden dildos

mickey 17 (2025)

don't expect anything like parasite or snow piercer. its a fun, family friendly movie, if not perhaps extremely on the nose with all current events. i felt like themewise, it could've had more direction, and i found toni colette's character, while striking everytime on screen, still a bit lacking. 79 bottles of juice

tar (2022)

i am questioning the author's intentions . 23 piece orchestra

queer (2024)

ouch ouch owww ouchhhh very painful watch. the longing you feel sometimes to be seen, to be heard, to be yourself, so deep and intangible it hurts. 47 chess pieces

hereditary (2018)

literally pissing and crying and shitting and farting and sobbing. why the fuck did they make it so scary wth. if u grew up believing in ghosts, this shit is terrifying . but also the people too??? fuck off!! i couldnt sleep for 2 weeks . 100 miniature art pieces

jojo rabbit (2019)

was super entertaining but im left wondering what space a non-jewish director has in making a story such as this, given the heavy topic. i understand that it's not such a serious drama, could even be considered a light family comedy, but having some of the death scenes felt a bit too brief. and i dont know what was the point really of humanising certain people - i just wish some characters were developed a bit deeper. 45 rabbits

we need to talk about kevin (2011))

interesting documentary about ezra miller . 43 buckets of red paint

wasp (2003)

nice short movie about classism, young motherhood...womanhood..? didn't get the message, but vibes wise, i was sat anyway. 40 bags of chips

poor things (2023)

cute movie, stellar performance by everyone, something about a cast of only 3-4 main characters making things super intimate which i liked a lot. couldn't help relating to a lot to bella's exploration of her sexuality. 20 portugese egg tarts.
