SDCC Recap
SDCC was filled with lots of announcements which of course everyone who wasn’t there has heard about by now. But hearing it from the people actually granting us more nerd content was a truly wonderful experience. Plenty of things social media has already jumped on but I want no nerd left behind! So I just wanted to recap what I thought were the most important announcements from SDCC to make sure that all of my fellow nerds are caught up. From Felicia Day to Invincible we have a lot to talk about.

Sunday, our last day of comic con was the slowest day of the weekend (which was a good thing because I was absolutely exhausted from the rest of the weekend) but it was also an amazing ending to an amazing weekend. We got to spend more time in the exhibit hall and we got to experience some more amazing fan experiences.

I finally got to see Barbie and damn it Greta Gerwig did it again. Every film she has ever made has made me cry but this one was even better. Now this film was highly anticipated by just about everyone and the fact that it was released the same day as Oppenheimer only made it more interesting. As of right now Barbie had the 24th largest opening weekend of all time and the highest grossing opening weekend of any film from a solo female director.

Marielle SabbagPublished 9 months ago in GeeksReview: Heartstopper Season 2
When Heartstopper Season 1 premiered, I found myself less enthusiastic about it compared to most critics. While I recognized its profound importance for today's queer youth, I questioned its entertainment value for older viewers. The eight-episode debut season centered around the blossoming romance between Charlie Spring (Joe Locke) and Nick Nelson (Kit Connor), but it seemed stretched thin, lacking significant plot development and engagement. My critique garnered backlash on social media, which dampened my overall interest in the show. However, approaching Season 2, I did so with skepticism, only to find that my main criticism had been admirably addressed by the creative team.
