As much as I love delving into arthouse animation, there’s something fun about a less serious entry every once in a while.
Cross-Platform Partners: Trap & Servant
Shyamalan’s signature style makes the show visually stunning
Hidden Gems: Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story
There are signs in Superstar that the Haynes may go on to expand upon that territory in the future.
Hidden Gems: Targets
It is a prime example of what I would classify as a hidden gem
20th Century Flicks: His Girl Friday
I was thoroughly impressed by the stellar performances and the impeccably aged comedy.
Hidden Gems: Polytechnique
Villeneuve’s visually focused style of filmmaking begins with Polytechnique
Animation Celebration: The Deer’s Bell
The Deer’s Bell is notable for a number of different reasons, from its art style to its celebration of culture
Out of Market: The Great War of Archimedes
It gives a perspective to a side of the Second World War that we do not get to see as often as it would be appropriate
One Stop Pop: Deadpool & Wolverine
Meta, gory, hilarious, and full of heart-stopping reveals, this is a movie that is meant for the biggest comic book and superhero movie fans out there
20th Century Flicks: Sleepless in Seattle
I totally understand the crowning of Nora Ephron, Tom Hanks, and Meg Ryan as rom com royalty
Cross-Platform Partners — Wolverine and the X-Men
it did encourage me to read more Astounding X-Men comics, and if that’s the legacy this will leave on me, I’d be happy with the results.
Animation Celebration: When the Wind Blows
When the Wind Blows is a harrowing snapshot from history
