Dear seniors: I’d like to flashback to spring of 2022. Many of us were knee-deep in finals, struggling to finish the semester.

I just finished the end of The Mandalorian season three and I enjoyed it. There were plenty of action sequences, fun Grogu action, and I thought the return of Moff Gideon was pretty cool.
I like to think I’m pretty well-versed in movie genres. I’ll watch pretty much anything and, although I may not enjoy everything I watch, I can always appreciate it.
With the Oscars fast approaching, I’ve set myself the goal of watching every film nominated for best picture before the award show.
At this point, I will watch anything that A24 puts out. From Hereditary to Uncut Gems to Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, even if I don’t fully understand or enjoy every one of their films, I always leave with something to think about or am impressed by a new film technique I’ve never quite seen done before.
To be entirely honest, I was unsure about how I would like the new Avatar. Although I appreciated the beauty of the first movie, I felt like they focused entirely too much on the politics of the story and should’ve spent more time discovering the world of Pandora.
From the start, Wakanda Forever had big shoes to fill. Not only was it the final film in the phase four saga, but it also had to explain the canonical death of T’Challa as well as pay homage to the incredible Chadwick Boseman.
Yes, I know Halloween was two weeks ago. But I’m still not over fall and I’m getting stressed by all the stores already playing Christmas music.
To this day, I still have some friends that won’t watch Coraline. And honestly, I don’t blame them. Even though it’s technically described as a children’s movie and I first watched it in elementary school, the underlying themes of this movie are anything but childish.
Let me start off by saying that the marketing for this movie has been 10/10 from the start. The first teaser trailer had no words and only showed a man sitting on a hospital bed, smiling creepily.
