  • Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion

    Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion 1997

    ★★★★★ Rewatched 20 Mar 2024 4

    “As long as the Earth, moon, and sun exist, everything will be alright.”

    Thrashing, vile, angry, terrified hope.

    One of the best theatrical experiences I’ve ever had. Sound terrified me. I cried almost the whole time. Life changing again. I’ll do better. 

    “Disgusting.”

  • Alien

    Alien 1979

    ★★★★★ Rewatched 27 Apr 2024

    “Standard procedure is to do what the hell they tell you to do.”

    Just the best. The end point of capitalism, of female autonomy, of human exploration. Silence.

    The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim 2024

    ★★ Watched 16 Dec 2024

    “He wanted a bride. So a bride he shall have.”

    Forced. Lazy. Sloppy. Cheap. 

    Animation no good, predictable boring as shit story, Hera the only compelling character at all, and never once feels like Tolkien. Oh actually Helm was cool. 

    I would be more forgiving if this was just some generic fantasy anime but come on. This is Tolkien. This film is completely devoid of passion, creativity, love, or sincerity. There are a few still frames that are beautiful amongst…

    “I want to talk to you…without speaking.”

    There exists within all of us a great potential for self destruction at the risk of intense loneliness. When burdened with the feeling of longing, of overwhelming yearning, for one specific person that can’t even bother to look at you with half the amount of care you have for them in your heart…you would be better off alone. 

    That’s the space Queer operates within. That isolation not from being alone, but from longing for someone…

    Look Back 2024

    ★★★★★ Watched 15 Oct 2024

    “I’m glad I came out of my room.”

    Why we do what we do. 
    Why we love who we love.
    Why we keep waking up every day.
    Why it matters. 

    “Then why do you draw, Fujino?”

  • Dune: Part Two

    Dune: Part Two 2024

    ★★★★★ Watched 25 Feb 2024 3

    “Father, I found my way.”

    Speechless. Perfect. Emotional. Pounding. Beautiful. Terrifying. Life changing. 

    I cannot believe what I just watched. Real review next time. I just wanna sit with it now. 

    Long live the fighters.
