Review of 'Hope: A History of the Future'
Engaging, playful, and thought-provoking, Hope is a seven-generation-spanning vision of the future as it could be—based on scientific projections, as well as historical and legal precedence—that will leave readers grappling with questions of destiny, responsibility, and the possibility for hope in a future world.

The Problem With ‘Moon Knight’ & Mental Health
Moon Knight is a show about a person (Oscar Isaac) given superpowers by the Egyptian God of the Moon Khonshu. This vigilante's goal is to fight wrongdoers. He is pitted against Arthur Harrow (Ethan Hawke), the servant of Ammit, who wants to judge wrongdoers before they commit their crimes. Along the way, we get a story about magical powers, kooky hijinks, and most surprisingly of all, a perspective on mental illness that although mixed, is not as harmful as the works that came before it.

My Review of "The Boys: Season 3"
The Boys: Season 3 has finally concluded this weekend and man was it a wild ride. They really didn't hold back on anything this season. My only complaint was that there weren't more episodes! I guess that's not really a complaint but whatever.

My Review of "Battle of the Year"
Battle of the Year is a dance movie that came out in 2013. I enjoyed watcing this movie back when it first came out. There were fond memories at that moment that coincided the dance scene as a whole. Years later I became worried I was going to have a different opinion of the movie.

My Favorite Movie, "The Abyss"
***Spoilers ahead!*** If you have not already seen this film, please proceed with caution. The 1989 sci-fi/adventure film The Abyss, directed by James Cameron, remains to be an other-worldly oddity in the realm of cinema with its intense narrative, special effects, stellar performances and thrilling set design, transporting audiences into an underwater realm of suspense and mystery. The cinematic language of the film itself and the technical work that went into it making it has had a lasting impression on viewers since the 80's, and critics have widely regarded it as a captivating and visually stunning masterpiece.

Thor: Love and Thunder
One of Marvel’s most anticipated projects, Thor: Love and Thunder premiered wide this week and I have many many thoughts and they all come back to this; Taika Waititi is a genius who should be in charge of all future Thor projects from now on, and any other project he wants. This review will have many of the spoilers so if you want to avoid that I strongly advise you to stop reading and come back later.

Review for The Batman
When it was first announced that The Batman was greenlit, I was super excited. Batman is my favorite superhero, and no matter how many Batman movies are made, I will always keep watching. However, my judgement/opinion became skeptical about the movie when the casting was first announced.

My Review of "Euphoria: Season 2"
Euphoria: Season 2 has been out on HBO for quite a while but I haven't gotten into Euphoria until recently when I binged through season 1. I didn't know what kind of wild chaotic drama I was getting into. It did leave me salivating for more of the show. Obviously knowing season 2 was already out I had to devour it.

Dune Review
Denis Villeneuve's Dune has all the makings of a movie that can break the box office, please critics, and spawn an outrageous legion of fans that spread to every corner of the internet. But it is Denis Villeneuve himself who puts a brake on the show, to treat Frank Herbert's work with extreme care. Villeneuve steers clear of unbridled action and the creation of space heroes, opting instead to narrate the genesis of a saga as ambitious as the vast number of works he has inspired since the 1960s.

My Review of "Stranger Things: Season 4 Part 2"
Stranger Things: Season 4 Part 2 has just released on Netflix. It didn't take too long for us to wait for this second half of the season either. A month isn't long to wait for a second half but with the grand scale that this season started off with we built up huge anticipation for the conclusion. Unfortunately I'm a little divided about this last half of the season.
