My Review of "Mobile Suit Gundam"
Mobile Suit Gundam is a movie that came out back in 1981. I haven't ever seen this anime movie until recently but I had read the novels back in high school. I remember loving the three part novel series but that was back in the 90s. After reading those novels I always wanted to see the anime series but I never had access to them. Recently the movies had popped up on Netflix and I finally got a chance to check them out.

My Review of "The New Mutants"
The New Mutants had finally come out in 2020. It came out at time when there was pretty much nothing out there because of the pandemic. That's why I'm curious why this movie doesn't get so much love from a lot of comic book fans. I'm looking at the young adults in particular because this is a movie definitely geared toward them.

My hatred of spider's and my love of Ron Weasley
Firstly, I’d like to say that this was painful to write because it forces me to think of, imagine, and, ultimately describe spiders, my bitter foe. Yet I do it gladly for my love of the expertly written character Ron Weasley from the Harry Potter book series. If you know of him at all you know that he and I share that hatred of the eight-legged and eight-eyed, weirdly furry, abominations. (Here I wanted to make sure I was correct about the number of creepy legs and eyes my foe has, and I almost had to look at a picture of them. I was forced to use my hand to cover the screen.) I shudder at the mere sight of my sly nemesis yet the courageous Ronald Bilius Weasley not only faced the furry beasts but ventured into their venomous lair.

My Review of "Salvage Kings: Season 1 and 2"
Salvage Kings was introduced to me sometime this year by my brother. He loves these shows where they find old things where they least expect them and profit off of these finds. Needless to say we've watched through Storage Wars for a long time until we found out that a lot of the treasures they found in the storages were planted. Then we watched a lot of American Pickers as well as Pawn Stars. It was all cool and all but living in Canada we didn't see too many based in Canada.

My Review of "The Fifth Element"
The Fifth Element is kind of a nostalgic classic movie to me. I was around 17 at the time of the movie first came out and I guess I was pretty much the demographic this movie was aiming for. It definitely shows this through some of the sequences in this movie that didn't age particularly well. Now in 2021, I've bought this movie probably the 3rd time in yet another video format, 4k Blu-ray.

Loki Episode Two: New Answers, New Questions
Heyyy episode three is coming out tomorrow! Time for a last-minute Loki review! This episode was a give-and-take for me. We didn’t get the same powerhouse emotional moments Episode One gave us, but we did get a massive leap forward in terms of story development; to the extent that people are saying the whole MCU could be affected. There’s only a few hours before Episode Three, and there’s a lot of ground to cover; so let’s jump right into the recap! Spoilers ahead.

Tribeca 2021: ‘No Running’ Review—A Subpar Thriller
It’s rare when we get to see a person of color headline a mystery sci-fi thriller, but that is precisely what we get with No Running, a film from Delmar Washington in his feature directorial debut. The film follows a young black man named Jaylen (Skylan Brooks), whose girlfriend vanishes in a storm.

Inside No. 9 Season 6 – Review and Episode Rankings
Since it premiered in 2014, Inside No.9, the dark comedy anthology series from The League of Gentlemen co-creators Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith – has consistently proven itself as one of the most inventive and original shows on British TV. The episodes are entirely stand-alone (although one turned out to be a followup to Psychoville) and set in a single location linked to a Number 9 in some way. The 37 episodes so far have varied from lightweight farce to gothic horror, from domestic drama to murder mystery, but the most common format is a seemingly banal event or activity going horribly wrong, usually with a gruesome sting in the tail. Pemberton and Shearsmith have appeared together in all but two of the episodes (Season One featured one episode without Pemberton and one without Shearsmith) accompanied by a large collection of veteran British actors, ranging from Gemma Arteton and Jack Whitehall to Derek Jacobi and Fiona Shaw.
