The Map of Tiny Perfect Things - A Movie Review
We’ll figure everything out eventually, just like this time loop we’re cursed in. After breaking free from a time loop, The Map of Tiny Perfect Things appeared in theaters in 2021. Mark and Margaret are two teenagers stuck in a time loop. As they figure out what it all means, they journey to distinguish life’s perfect moments.

Review: Inside Out 2
While I didn't see the first Inside Out movie in theatres, I am a long-time fan of it. Insight Out does a great job of making our emotions, our instincts, understandable, rationalising without making excuses. I haven't enjoyed a Psychological deep-dive so much since my Beloved got me hooked into Sanders Sides. (She's still smug about that)

Power Rangers Review: "Day of the Dumpster"
You know, I've been a hardcore Power Rangers fan since the franchise started all the way back in 1993. The series is still going on strong even now with its many incarnations, though like many fans, I often tend to look back at the classic episodes from the early years. I have written a few Power Rangers related stories on here, and I've been planning to write some episodic reviews for a long while now. It wouldn't be literally every episode, just the ones that stand out the most and feature some of the most historic moments.

House of the Dragon
House of the Dragon season 2, episode 3. This is where the internet (at least the side of it that has read Fire and Blood) believes that Rhaenys is going to die. That said, the last episode really didn’t do much to progress the actual war part of this war so I suppose we will see. Honestly I think what made Game of Thrones so compelling was the political conversations and moves being made, that occasionally led to battle. But House of the Dragon really isn’t doing much of either. They seem to be spending more time on the interpersonal relationships of each side which were not relevant parts of the book at all. Alicent isn’t even mentioned for like 100 pages of the dance so why am I seeing her so much? Anyway just further proof that the writing team doesn’t understand their source material.

My Review of "American Ninja Warrior: Couples Championship 2024"
American Ninja Warrior: Couples Championship 2024 has finished. Again I'm late to the game. It was another entertaining episode but I kind of remember why these are somewhat forgettable but fun episodes. There's highs and lows to this but it also feels like a whole season all wrapped up into one episode.

A Treachery to the Faithful . Content Warning.
The Roman Catholic Church is one of the oldest institutions in history. It is an ancient organization that has preserved itself through layers of secrecy, holy rituals, and worldwide acceptance of Catholic doctrine. It is this faith that wills this system to outlast the lives of all their believers, thus, clearly showing the power of collective faith and belief. But this power, this trust, was immensely and systematically abused, betraying a billion people all believing and relying in this religion. The Boston Globe revealed a major discrepancy that exploded into a major scandal that shook the long-standing beliefs of Catholics right down to its cultural core.

My Review of "A Quiet Place: Day One"
A Quiet Place: Day One has just released in theatres. It is one of my hotly anticipated movies of the year. I loved the first two movies and I couldn't say no to seeing this movie right away in the theatres. One of the biggest draws is partly the audience ambiance when the intensity of the movie goes up. This movie is a lot of fun but there are certainly a ton of distractions as well.

Big Fat Liar - A Movie Review
Lies will only make the situation worse. Big Fat Liar is a 2002 film. Fourteen-year-old Jason Shepherd has a habit of lying. To make up for his failing grade, he writes a killer essay. Only it’s stolen by big-time Hollywood producer, Marty Wolf, who turns it into a smash-hit film. With nobody on his side, except his best friend Kaylee, the duo travel to Hollywood for the ultimate revenge.

A Quiet Place: Day One Movie Review
Back in 2018, A Quiet Place was released to high acclaim; it was a nail-biting thriller that did more with less. Following a 2021 sequel, the series is branching off in different directions with A Quiet Place: Day One. If you can put up with a fairly standard opening act, this third entry will offer the same tension against a standalone story.
