Conclave
So many thrillers this year. Among them is Conclave, another religious based thriller. I’m not opposed to them inherently, I just think using religious based thrillers is a little easy as religion is inherently creepy. Its ritualistic nature makes it extremely easy for a writer to build a story. Also, it's not like religion has always been some pure, unblemished thing. As a writer, it just seems simplistic, which can be a good thing when executed properly.

Let’s Make This World Grinch-less
“The Grinch Who Stole Christmas” was a fun cartoon for kids who got to see how the Grinch finally liked Christmas. In the movie ”The Grinch” starring Jim Carey If we would watch it with adult eyes there are so many different messages which we could pass on to our children and grandchildren.

Organizing Your Anime: My Methods for Tracking and Completing Anime
Let’s get it out of the way, I am a freak. I first started watching anime in 2013ish. I realized quickly that there were too many anime I wanted to watch to keep track of them all. I also found it annoying to try and remember which episode you were on in a show, it would take the fun out of watching it by trying to remember and starting an episode only to realize you had already watched it. I also did anime reviews back in 2013 on Instagram. My name was _anime_tips_ which is how I thought of this name. They weren’t as in-depth, but I posted almost daily reviews of my finished anime. I started using the best thing I could think of to create a watch list, the notes app on my phone. This has slowly evolved throughout the years and has been the most effective way I have found to track the anime I want to watch, I am currently watching, and the ones I have finished. I know they have sites like Anime-Planet, where you can also track what you are watching or finished, but I have been using my method for so long that it's what works best for me.

Zombies are less cool than Santa
I like writing movie and show reviews. I'm sorry, I know that I should be writing reviews about traditional Christmas movies at this time, but for some weird reason, I feel like talking about zombies. Maybe it's because the other day I had a very weird conversation with a zombie and I just can't shake the thought of them out of my head, even though I'd much rather be sitting on Santa's lap and telling him about my wish list.

Reviewing a Hat Trick of Villainesses from "Don't Let Him Find You"
2024 has been quite an interesting and delicious year for Lifetime thrillers. I'll definitely delve more into that in my annual year end top 10 list, which I've been writing since 2021. I've enjoyed a lot of these thrillers and the villainesses that have come with them, and that collection does include this movie that aired on Black Friday: Don't Let Him Find You.

'Carmen Jones,' The Fiery Musical That Redefined a Genre
There’s nothing soft or easy about Carmen Jones. The moment Dorothy Dandridge steps into view, hips swaying and sidelong glances, you know you’re not in Fred-and-Ginger territory anymore. There are no sparkling ballrooms with elegant dancers twirling to airy show tunes. Instead, Otto Preminger’s 1954 film stomps right past the boundaries of the typical Hollywood musical. It sets up shop in a seductive world, where fiery desires collide with suffocating jealousy. Here, the line between love and hate dissolves into smoke.

Longlegs
Okay…I want to clarify right at the top here that we are only watching this movie for journalism purposes. I really can’t stand Nicholas Cage movies, he seems to be getting harder to avoid though. He’s been in 3 movies in 2 years and it is a lot. I think he was uniquely suited for Dream Scenario and Renfield but his face still bothers me. So here we are with my against my will review of Longlegs.

Juror #2
Some movies get really great marketing, others are more independent. And some movies come out completely under the radar, like Juror #2. I didn’t hear a single thing about this movie despite the cast being relatively well known. Nicholas Hoult, Zoey Deutch, J.K. Simmons, and Keifer Sutherland all star, so you’d think that they’d warrant a little more attention and fanfare. And it was produced by Clint Eastwood but I don’t think that this film even got a real wide release, it was only put in like 50 theatres. So really the definition of under the radar.

Friday the 13th Movies Ranked Worst to Best, according to AI. AI-Generated.
Today is Friday the 13th, the weekend is coming and it is the ideal time to watch the complete Friday the 13th movies saga. This franchise is one of the most important in the horror genre because it reminds us of the American superstition that Friday the 13th is a cursed date.

Summer Camp
We talked a lit bit last year about how older women get treated in the industry. They really don’t have that many acting opportunities and when they get them the roles are regulated to grandmothers and witches. So when 80 for Brady and Book Club came out it was a win for both the industry and for women but those films are still few and far between. This year the only one we really got was Summer Camp starring Diane Keaton, Kathy Bates and Alfre Woodard. Keaton also helped produce the film.

Immaculate
Sydney Sweeney is Hollywood's latest bombshell. She gained popularity due to the show Euphoria and the unfortunate side effect of that is she has now been unable to break herself from what I like to call the Marilyn Monroe effect. She is a gorgeous blonde that people immediately dismiss the intelligence and talent of. Last year she starred in Anyone But You, which I loved and think she did a great job in. And this year she took the leap and did something entirely different, Immaculate. Horror is a newer genre for her but I think she is built to be a scream queen, so let’s see.
