Celina Saga
Precius held a worried look on her face. The clouds above her darkened. A bad omen drenched the skies. She could feel it. The princess of Celina rode to the thunderclaps of her horse', her younger sibling, Sybil Valentine wore a bandana atop her long, black hair like a gypsy. Her eyes reminiscent to what the sky once was when it was filled with radiance, now the sun had forsaken the Earth that once needed it. Her bosom covered with her thinly blue skirt and black leggings that led to her brown, buckled boots. She kept her arms wrapped around Precius' waist as she could feel the up and down rhythmic thump of the horse's motions. Corinne, Precius twin sister, kept pace beside them. They were ripping through a thicket to seek help--Sybil was infected. She mainly spoke slowly, but would feel as if the world weighed heavily upon her mind, causing it to wander. Sometimes, the thoughts were malicious. And even then, she only let out short groans, to which, Precius soon took notice.

Jurassic Park: A Review
Few pictures reach the legendary status of Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park. First opening to audiences in 1993, I can hardly imagine the giddiness the movie-goers had seeing dinosaurs captured in such detail and magnificence for the first time on the big screen in such a way. We all know the scene and shot as well. Just as our big three are introduced to the park's true nature, so is the audience. Paired with the swirling score of the masterful John Williams, it can only be described as pure cinema.

Why Is Nobody Talking About The Misogyny In Once Upon A Time In America?
Last night I sat down to watch what I thought was an essential cinema classic - Sergio Leone's Once Upon A Time In America. I was expecting a sweeping epic tale of romance, friendship, and betrayal. Minus the romance, the film half-heartedly delivers on those promises, with a score to match. In fact, Ennio Morricone's compositions are too idyllic and romantic for the film. The almost four-hour story fails to develop its characters, and no matter how alike the young/old acting counterparts may look, little harmony exists between the two sets of characters they play. An exception can be made for the protagonist, Noodles, who is a terrible person, but for reasons that remain unclear, the film wants us to sympathize with him.

Streaming Concierge
I've always loved movies. Growing up, movie theaters were my church. I worshipped at the altars of Lucas and Spielberg, Scorsese and Coppola, Altman and Ashby. As soon as I was old enough, I got my first job at Victor Video, an independent video store in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles. From when I started at 15 until I left four years later, I used our vast library of VHS tapes to develop my own film school curriculum.

My Review of "Speed"
Speed came out in 1994 and at the time of its release I thought it was a dumb idea. It was pretty popular back in those times. I guess I didn't see the appeal so I never watched it. My small mind couldn't comprehend how this movie could be an exciting action film. Fast forward to 2021 I finally caved and watched the movie. After watching it, I have to admit I'm kicking myself for not watching it earlier.

The Best Of Bucky: 4 Great MCU Fight Scenes Featuring The Winter Soldier
The films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, despite their varied tones and styles, are known for their action set pieces. Irrespective of which director is at the helm, the MCU’s mostly formulaic approach means its films usually open with one big fight sequence followed by a teaser fight in the middle and a climactic smash in the final act. While there may be criticisms of this style, there's plenty of excitement and anticipation for audiences.
