Welcome to my weird world!
Pixar really makes groundbreaking animated films look easy. I'm ashamed to say I've never seen Onward. Things were so hectic by the time of its release that I guess I somehow wasn't in the mood for joy. Maybe I'll watch it before I go to bed. I'd better see it before I visit The Great...

There's this movie out there called Santa Hunters, and I need not tell you who it's marketing for. I haven't seen the film, but on the surface it looks like a cheap pandering flick about kids trying to get the loot of their life for the holidays. We Can Be Heroes when only looking at...

I've been disappointed with a fair bit of DC superhero movies, like Batman V Superman, Teen Titans Go! To The Movies and Aquaman, but I never thought a C would be my grade for the delayed-five-times and gargantuanly anticipated follow-up to the Wonder Woman movie, a production that was my second favourite film of all...

I hope this gets a sequel. I've seen some of Paul W. S. Anderson's work, and some of it is rocky. I was a fan of the Resident Evil movies. The last one, even though it retconned quite a bit, was a wonderfully satisfying burst of entertainment and surprising melancholiness. I can see Paul's style... Continue Reading →
Merry Christmas, or Happy Holidays. Whichever works. For those who didn't do their homework, such as me, this is not only a lesbian romance movie set on Christmas; it's apparently the first of its type because every actor who plays someone who's LGBTQ in this movie is LGBTQ in real life. Welcome additional touch there.... Continue Reading →
Why has this become a classic that my family and I watch every year and yours probably does too? Well, there's the fact it's a relatable everything-goes-wrong plot as Clark W. Griswold Jr. tries to plan the most perfect Christmas possible…No, that's not why. The antics and slapstick are goldenly hectic and Chevy Chase is... Continue Reading →
For Christmas Eve, I'm going to be uploading a fair bit of movie reviews of some Christmas cheer. This is the first. This used to be one of my favourite films ever. And you know, I will often say someone else’s review shouldn’t impact your own, and what I mean by that is if a... Continue Reading →
This project was one I followed for a very long time. It was in some development hell from being in production from 2014-15 before it was cancelled a year later with some company merging worries. Then it got green-lit again and delayed a little bit, and finally, seven years after Grug, Eep, Guy, Ugga, Thunk,... Continue Reading →
Merry Christmas Everyone, Film Viewers and Filthy Animals Alike! Fun fact: A relative of mine is an elementary school teacher in Ajax, and last year it was the final day before Christmas break and her class voted on a movie, and this was the winner. Not because it was a favourite. Not one of those... Continue Reading →
The more horror movies you see, the more you get numbed to them and demand better. Actually, as I was typing that, I realized that's the same for all types of movies, but with horror it's especially true. You watch some classic terror productions to get creeped out, you watch some new ones to get... Continue Reading →
