Reign of the Supermen, 2019

It felt a little too light on story and rushed compared the first part released a few months ago.

Overlord, 2018

If you took out all the horror elements I think this would still be a really good WWII movie. You can see how this was supposed to connect to the Cloverfield Universe, I just wish they stuck to their guns and did it.

The Nun, 2018

In my option this added absolutely nothing to the Conjuring Universe. I didn’t see any point whatsoever.

Unbreakable, 2000

I haven’t watched this since it’s initial release and I was shocked by how much this movie annoyed me. The sluggish pace and Shyamalan’s endless showing off drove me crazy. And the title cards at the end are just ridiculous.

X-Men: Apocalypse, 2016

I’ve warmed up a bit to this movie since its initial release. Magneto has the most interesting story arc here by far. I totally forgot about The Weapon X segment and that gave me a good laugh.

Alien: Covenant, 2017

I really enjoyed this re-watch. There’s some very interesting ideas at play and it bums me out that we’ll never get to see the final chapter to David’s story now since Disney bought Fox.

The Insufferable Groo, 2018

Probably the mostly aptly named movie ever made. Stephen Groo has earned his place in history right next to Mark Borchardt – two guys with ambitions that outpace their budgets.

The Conjuring 2, 2016

I really like Farmiga and Wilson in these roles. These films just need to be about 30 minutes shorter, they just tend to drag on a little too long for me.

Bohemian Rhapsody, 2018

I know they filmmakers played fast and loose with some facts and timelines and I really don’t care. Freddie Mercury was and always be the best frontman ever.

Springsteen On Broadway, 2018

Definitive proof that Bruce is the best. I’m so happy Netflix filmed and released this show because there was no way I would have been able to see it otherwise.

Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead, 1994

Surprisingly better than I remembered. You can tell there’s a lot of other movies influencing this installment – Army of Darkness goofiness, Return of the Living Dead zombies, Home Alone styled kid.

Phantasm II, 1988

Everything you could have every wanted to see in a sequel to the original cult classic. I love that it still doesn’t make a lick of sense.

Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, 2018

The choose your own adventure gimmick was a clever way to explore the idea of free will, I just wish the overall story was a little more interesting. I think I found the most “Black Mirror” type of ending but who knows. I kind of just ran out of decision trees to follow.
