“And on the pedestal, these words appear:

My name is Tom Hooper, King of Kings;

Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay

Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare

The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

As far as comedies go, it'd be hard to find one as well-refined and hilarious as Sausage Party.

Chris Morgan, The Rock and Jason Statham mean more to this franchise than I thought.

Still good tho!

Blair Witch

Blair Witch

★★★ Liked Watched

The best I was hoping for coming into this movie was visceral enjoyment. I got that in addition to a few intellectual things to chew on, so I guess I liked Blair Witch?

My friend and I sat 5 rows ahead of everyone else and made jokes about this the whole time so does it even matter if the movie was good?

Btw the jigsaw theme has the same melody as Paul McCartney’s “Live and Let Die”. Good luck unhearing that.

X-Men: Apocalypse

X-Men: Apocalypse

★★½ Watched

X-Men: Apocalypse is the movie equivalent of a truck with its back tire stuck in the mud.

There was just barely enough things I enjoyed about it to justify liking the movie. I hope this is a misstep and not a sign of what's to come for this awesome franchise.

I hope.

The Matrix Resurrections

The Matrix Resurrections

★★★ Liked Watched

I've never been the biggest fan of anything Matrix or Wachowski, so my expectations coming in were pretty non-existent.

Seeing it post-Spiderman certainly was an interesting experience, as each grapples with the history of the franchise in their own distinct, but polar opposite way.

While I didn't love how this went about exploring that past, there's enough there to think about that will grow on me over the next couple days unlike that other movie which to put it kindly:…

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

★★★½ Liked Watched 2

I like all 4 Pirates movies I've seen (sorry On Stranger Tides) because they're crazy, nonsensical blockbusters that aren't afraid to go for it. With Dead Men Tell No Tales, they've definitely settled into a formula, but as long as the pieces keep moving and Jack keeps making me smile, I'm down for it.

P.S. No one cares that you liked the first Pirates movie and hate the rest because everyone else does.
