I absolutely did not expect this movie to get a sequel. 😂

Now that #TikTok is gone in the U.S., hopefully BlueSky gets a bit more attention and actually pops off.

One can hope!

Surprise Drama GIF ALT: Surprise Drama GIF

The Jimmy Butler situation with the #MiamiHeat reminds me of Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros.:

A great partnership until the end, which was ugly and quickly deteriorated, resulting in Nolan leaving and finally winning his Oscar.

Will Jimmy now leave Miami and win a championship?

A review of Mufasa: The Lion King (2024) Much better than the 2019 film, partly because there’s actual emotion we can see on these animals’ faces! A crazy concept, I know. 😂 But in all seriousness: Barry Jenkins helps elevate this movie a wh...

There’s no question #MufasaTheLionKing is head and shoulders above the 2019 film.

A ★½ review of The Substance (2024) Demi Moore gives a really good performance here! The story is definitely unique and a commentary on how vanity truly drives people insane. Looks ain’t everything! But outside of that, I don’t really g...

I know I’m in the minority on this one, but #TheSubstance was pretty awful.

Outside of a good Demi Moore performance, this story was a mess and the movie is overly long.

I don’t get the hype.

A ★½ review of Emilia Pérez (2024) “Emilia Pérez” is truly a unique movie musical. I enjoy how some of the numbers are shot, and Zoe Saldaña delivers a good performance! I just…don’t think enough of the musical numbers hit for me. Ther...

#EmiliaPerez is a huge swing and miss, to me. I never got into a groove with the story and the musical numbers — while shot well — are a chore to get through.

Stinks that they wasted Zoe Saldaña in this one.

A ★★★★½ review of Conclave (2024) I loved “Conclave.” The tension was perfectly built from scene to scene, thanks to wonderful direction, a chilling score, great performances and an Oscar-worthy screenplay. I’ll be so happy if this mo...

I LOVED #Conclave!

This movie is fantastic and the tension is built perfectly.

It is 100% awards-worthy.

And it’s immediately in my Top 5 of the year!

Really?! I’m surprised because this is at least a big enough title to warrant a ton of screenings. Or at least I assumed. 😆

I hope you all enjoy! I liked Encanto for sure, but Moana is much better, to me.

I never expected #Moana2 to have the same charm as the first, but I expected it to at least have charm.

The animation is gorgeous and Auliʻi Cravalho delivers a good performance!

But the story, music and editing fails this sequel.

Moana 2 really misses Lin-Manuel Miranda’s pen, too.

I just got around to watching #DuneProphecy and…

Ep 1 didn’t grab me. Outside of the exposition dumps, there wasn’t a storyline that hooked me. They’re planting seeds of mystery with Desmond Hart, but everything else?

Eh..

I’ll give it a chance to see if next week is better.

I groaned after learning about #GladiatorII. Legacy sequels aren’t always my jam.

In this case, it’s been 24 years.

But…

I have no idea how Ridley Scott kept me engaged in virtually every scene

You know, that makes me happy to hear you’re relieved I’m not over-the-moon excited after my screening. I’m nervous fans are gonna lambaste me in the comments because my opinion isn’t gonna be 🎶popular🎶
