The Boys Just Made a HUGE Mistake with Starlight! Will They Regret It?
While the gruff Butcher (Karl Urban) might be a fan favorite, the show's emotional core rests on the transformations of Hughie (Jack Quaid) and Annie (Erin Moriarty). Thrust into a world-altering encounter in the pilot, they became the audience's surrogates. Unlike Butcher, who remains his delightfully crass self, Hughie and Annie have undergone dramatic journeys, evolving from wide-eyed innocents into hardened individuals forced to confront the show's brutal realities.

A film from 2002 still well liked
Stephen Speilburg released the film "catch me if you can" in December 2002. With an all star cast (including Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen, Ellen Pompeo, and Jennifer Garner) the movie was born to be an instant classic. While the Rotten Tomatoes score at 96% shows that the movie is well received and liked, one thing I'm not sure about is this nagging question: Can a film from 22 years ago, that wasn't anything like Speilburg's claim to fame (E.T.) have already achieved a permanent place in the league of "Classic" classification? If I must answer the question myself, I'm going to say Yes, this film and others like it from Speilburg or starring DiCaprio, have done that - They became classic, almost instantly. Not because they were filmed in black and white. Not because they followed the same worn out forumula of another classic. And not because the fans are happy to see a bunch of big name stars. This film became a classic because the artists involved all did exactly what they were supposed to do. They were all in the "zone" and took their roles in movie crafting seriously. And when it all comes together like that in perfect harmony, we get a movie that defies age, defies time, and is relevant and enjoyable forever. Classic!

Entering Anime
If you are a fan of television and movies, of any genre, but have yet to venture into the world of anime, you are missing out. To so many people, anime still seems like this really niche thing for people to enjoy. Some write it off as just Japanese cartoons and mistake it for children. But the reality is that anime is a world of its own with deep, rich stories for people of all ages to enjoy. However a subsection of media with as much content as anime has can be very intimidating, so how does someone get started?

The Glorious Nuance of 'Star War's
"The Jedis are the GOOD guys. THE END." Said the Tweet. This was likely an angry plea related to the newest addition to the Star Wars franchise, The Acolyte, which features a Jedi doing bad things. I've not seen The Acolyte as the toxic Star Wars fandom has driven me to avoid most Star Wars media that doesn't involve my unending nostalgia for the original trilogy. And that I can only enjoy in private, never sharing my love for it out of a strong desire not to associate with toxic Star Wars fans.

Silent, but Still Golden
Crafted between the late 1890s and the late 1920s, the "Silent Era" of filmmaking represents the birth of the film industry that we know, today, as well as the infancy of the innovative spirit of early filmmakers. These movies relied on visual storytelling, expressive acting, and evocative music to captivate audiences and convey powerful narratives. For newcomers, silent films may seem like a relic of the past; or in some cases, like an experience on par with drinking a particular blend of scotch or glass of red wine for the first time. You may enjoy it at first exposure, but it can become rather difficult to finish. Especially given how vast and overwhelming the catalogue of silent movies is (which is ironic, considering that an estimated 75% of all silent films, produced in the United States alone, are considered lost, today). Yet, the experience can result in new outlooks that are both unique and transcendent of time. This multi-step guide will take you on a journey through the silent era; providing insights and tips to help you appreciate the magic and artistry of these timeless works. For like a tasting flight, your palette for this period of movies will slowly and surely grow on you, over time.
