Movie Review: 'Mack & Rita' Another Flop for Diane Keaton
I’ve been struggling with this silly review of this very silly movie for a couple of days. Why? Because I like Diane Keaton and I don’t enjoy hating her movies. Diane Keaton is a classy actress with a wealth of talent and style who was great… in the 1970s. Ever since the late 90s something has possessed Diane Keaton to make some of the most unwatchable movies of the past 30 years. Movies such as Because I Said So, Mad Money, Town & Country, The Family Stone, Poms, The Book Club, Hanging Up, And So It Goes, are some of the most dull and insulting movies I have ever seen.

Movie Review: 'Where the Crawdads Sing'
Where the Crawdads Sing is too cowardly to be the kind of unconventional movie it could be. The story of a young woman raising herself in a South Carolina Swamp, Where the Crawdads Sing has an intriguing idea at heart but fails to capitalize on that idea. Instead, the film, and, I am told, the book, fall back on a conventional courtroom story to carry the drama. There is nothing wrong with a good courtroom mystery but it needs to be better than your average episode of Law & Order television episode or it needs to be scrapped. Crawdads fails that test.

The Barrel
When you stare down the barrel of a gun in a Michael Mann movie, the protagonist is often replaced with the thought of what comes next. What is on the other end of pulling the trigger?

10 Essential And Iconic Movies Everyone Should Watch (And Rewatch)
Here’s the thing—I love movies. I’ve seen hundreds (nearing a thousand, I’m not kidding, I keep a list.) There are many classic movies worth seeing. In no particular order, this is a list of ten movies that are iconic and worth each moment of their run time and your time. I’ve seen every movie on this list numerous times, and I remain confident in my decision to recommend them. They’re all great; watch em’ all, or the Texan accent (which only exists in my mind and in my listicle-writing apparently) stays put.

Live action Pinocchio coming to Disney+ in Sept. Top Story - August 2022.
How has Disney’s track record been with live-action remakes lately? Little sub-par ya thinking? What was the last one, Cruella, I think? Definitely, not the worst but kinda felt like too much of its own thing to really be considered the same character we knew from Disney if you ask me. But i guess they had to do something different cause they already had those two live-action “101 Dalmatians” movies.

My favorite movies from every year of my life.
This was really fun to do so before I start I wanted to give shouts to both Zach Cherry and Cody Leach for the idea there are both youtubers fyi and you can them out if you want over there.As for this list, I had a few runner- ups for specific years, and I will lwt you know those now. For 1994 the runner up was “The Little Rascals”.For 1998 the runner up was “Snake Eyes” I’m del Palma Stan!, I can’t help it! For 2005 the runner up is “Rumor has it” one of my favorite Jen Aniston movies. 2011’s runner up is “Girl with The Dragon Tattoo”. 2012’s runner up is V-H-S, that’s one of the most unique horror movies I’ve ever seen. And the second sequel I enjoy as well.I had a runner up for 2019 but I don’t remember what movie that was.Ok now that I’ve done that, let me tell you why I’ve done this.I made this list because every movie on this list has had an affect on me the years they came out, and the subsequent years of course. Not the first five maybe because I was so young, but over the years they became favorites since. As with everyone else movies hold a special place in my heart, well I’ll say life cause saying heart sounds corny lol. I did another list that is similar to this one, but only with horror movies. I wrote it on my personal blog and I think I might put it on here in October. But back to this list I realized that a lot of my favorites have been action oriented, which is a genre I didn’t really like growing up. But now I can say it’s one of my favorites. Oh! My runner up for 2010 I just remembered is “Inception”. If enough people read this I might put it on YouTube, but if it flops oh well lol. My ultimate favorite movie on this list is my 1994 entry. Just like the other movies most of what I want to say about this movie is in the caption. I haven’t seen anyone do something like this on her. Since we can leave comments on her now , I would like to know if anyone has done this as well. it would be fun to read someone else’s list!! Maybe in a different genre even.

There is No Occupy Gotham
Remember the summer of 2012 with the release of Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises? It was the epic conclusion in his Batman saga starting back in 2005 with Batman Begins. Almost immediately, critics paint The Dark Knight Rises with a broad brush of a supposed Occupy Wall Street influence. Occupy Wall Street began in September of 2011, carrying on nearly six months later. People return for a May Day March in 2012. Occupy movements pick up elsewhere, both nationally and internationally. Time Magazine mentions it in Time Person of the Year 2011 being "The Protester." Turn on the T.V. there is Occupy Wall Street! You could not get away from it. Hence, it was easy to make this connection to Gotham City in The Dark Knight Rises. Our antagonist of the film Bane, makes a speech that may sound like an Occupier. There is the attack on the Gotham Stock Exchange and much more. Ergo, making the link is understandable. Yet, this connection holds no merit believe it or not.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Looks Surprisingly Good
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves debuted its very first trailer at San Diego Comic-Con on July 21, 2022, to what I can only assume was some trepidation from anyone who has existed in the Dungeons & Dragons space since at least 2000, if not earlier.
