@Architectural Guinea Pig, a friend of mine convinced me to watch it and I thought you may be curious about my thoughts. Didn’t want to type it all again Though so here’s a link

A ★★★★ review of KPop Demon Hunters (2025)

There is no world in which if you told me that I would thoroughly enjoy the movie “KPop Demon Hunters” that I’d believe you. As a matter of fact, I’d probably think you were having a stroke or something because absolutely nothing about that title even remotely seemed like something I’d even...

Well, damn. Eddington is the second movie in a row I that genuinely gave me a Krusty the Clown "what the hell was that?!?" reaction as the credits started to roll. His drop off after Midsommar and Hereditary is freaking staggering. I'm sure more people will like this than Beau is Afraid, but I just hated pretty much all of the plot developments that happened in the second half after getting excited about the first half building up a really solid slow burn pressure cooker character study thriller. I can't spoil anything, but there's a point about midway through where Aster just throws away all the character tension and it becomes a MUCH lesser movie for it. I'm genuinely upset haha.

@PerGron definitely curious to hear your thoughts on Eddington. Honestly between Eddington being a huge let down and Smurfs and I Know What You Did Last Summer both looking genuinely terrible, this past weekend has been one of the worst summer movie release slates I've ever seen. Man what a collection of turkeys. It's kind of funny that the genuine franchise blockbusters have been the actual good movies this month.

All I can say for all three of these movies is a HUGE “whoooooosh”

Smurfs and IKWYDLS were genuinely terrible and I have absolutely ZERO CLUE how I feel about Eddington yet.

I keep editing this and will have to make a full post tomorrow but I hated watching it but I think I also loved it??

I thought the Avatar: Fire and Ash trailer was absolutely freaking magnificent and I'm willing to be totally alone on my little hype island with this one. Genuinely had a moment where I considered sneaking into a later Fantastic Four showing just to see it again. The creature design and world building is just getting unreal, and there's actually some fairly intriguing little plot nuggets in here as well.
