Finally finished season 1 of The Ark,

Honestly, it's not great, it's crude and verbose often, but plotwise it's still better than most of the stuff on TV.

Still recommended, as a drama it's squarely alright.

Full River Red

4.5 billion yuan box office in China, ~$650million USD.

Honestly, movie was so - so, more/less unwatchable for western audience due to language/cultural barrier.

This movie poster is cool though.

Renfield, not super fresh, but very watchable, nothing outright didn't work.

straight forward, you are entertained, you go to bed.

It can not be overstated how good Cyberpunk Edgerunner is. The synchronous flow state of the plot, with perfect fluidity, transporting the audience into a dystopia that is so futuristic, yet frighteningly flawed/ human/ and familiar.

4th time rewatching.

Hmm, might give that a try then. Not really an anime person, but I love cyberpunk.

You can safely watch the dub too, english voicing surprisingly great.

A Knock at the Cabin,

45minutes in, Prettttty gud' some elements are a little slow, buhhhh. still, intrigue is well maintained.

Rewatching The Office. It's crazy how shows like this and Seinfeld hold up after such a long time. The comedy is timeless, and it rarely distracts with traps like outdated tech or social changes. I notice most of the shows that hold up for so long are comedies. Wonder why that is?

The mother, plot is too much pick and choose your adventure, a hodgepodge of worn spy movie tropes.

Nothing outright wrong with it, j-lo is a competent actress, and she's clearly working hard, but without the little leftover from her lifelong ago fame, she would not pass a current screen test, certainly not in what constitutes a bland plot.

Really enjoyed the DnD movie. The first half is SUPER SLOW, but the second half more than made up for it. Very back-heavy movie, I am certain there will be a sequel since it's doing so well on streaming.

In the sequel I hope to see Tiamat and a Lich and a Dragon Turtle would make my day

If you're curious about what happened with the whole Gamestop AMC stock thing from a few years ago (that's still on going), or curious about how stocks work, I HIGHLY recommend it.

What you think you know, you don't.
The film itself is a bit slow to get going, it's a documentary maker trying to find his footing but once it gets rolling it's pretty good and will explain a LOT of how things work as well as what happened in an entertaining way (even better if you followed the debacle). The system is so corrupt it's insane, I'm not sure even those involved know how corrupt it is (certainly not day traders) and if you think your retirement is safe in the stock market (hedge fund or 401k) have I got some really bad news for you.

Just watched it, was a bit worried it'd be bad, happily relieved it's very well put together.

Fight choreography well done. They're all elements we've seen before, but the arrangement is fresh and fluid.

It plays like an updated lord of the rings, less drudgery, more fun.

The CGI did not blend very realistically due to unrealistic light bounces. But most sets still looked cool.
