I got out of seeing this movie in IMAX over an hour ago. I adored it and am convinced that it is Alex Garland's directorial opus magnum. It sucks he won't be directing anymore, but he is a gifted sci-fi screenplay writer and I wish him well in future projects. I remember feeling broken after seeing ... |

A brand-new trailer debuted this past Thursday! 8O https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itnqEauWQZM This looks as intense as it does nostalgic! 8) I look forward to seeing how Unicron is introduced in live-action and how Paramount will build him up to be the Thanos of the 2020s. This will be a treat to t... |

For those who watched the Superbowl last Sunday, a new trailer (or rather, TV spot) dropped. It was nothing substantial, but we got a look at Mirage's new look. I think he looks incredible, and I can dig his personality! I also find that Pete Hines does his voice justice. https://www.youtube.com/wat... |

I liked Pink Flamingos. Can you describe your political views? Kill everyone now. Condone first degree murder, advocate for cannibalism, eat s**t. Filth is my politics, filth is my life. While I won't ever watch Pink Flamingos, that is a pretty darn good quote! Cannibal Holocaust. At least with the... |

Upon making my "movies you refuse to see list," in 2021, I was surprised to see users mention titles that I found neither offensive nor lousy (i.e., MCU films, Harry Potter, Avatar, etc.). I thought, "why would you refuse to watch the MCU movies, given that none of those movies are of... |

Paramount Productions dropped this new teaser trailer today for an upcoming live-action adaptation of Beast Wars. Interest in this movie and nostalgia for the 90s inspired me to do the 90s thread I posted last year (I'm sure many of you remember that). I felt immense joy and reminiscence upon seeing... |

I also like Penn & Teller’s TV show “Fool Us.” Alright, one possibility: 1) Okay, the whole thing with the Fermi Paradox — “If the Milky Way Galaxy is teeming with extraterrestrial life, then where the heck is everybody?” However, I’ve read even if there was an Earth-like planet at orbiting the... |

I lost all respect for the Nostalgia Critic when that April 2018 controversy emerged. The list of Channel Awesome's grievances was nothing short of appalling. I'm surprised that he still has a following despite the fallout of that incident. I found such a turn of events sad because I used to like th... |

While laziness can be a reason, it isn't always the case. There are many reasons for living at home as an adult. To leave home at a certain age is quite Western and relatively modern. I relish the idea of how non-Western cultures practice multigenerational households. In my case, I've become close w... |

I enjoyed a flapjack with honey for breakfast. Along with a lemon-flavored low-sugar protein yogurt and a protein shake. |
