Arcane S1 E7 (Full Reaction)

It’s Arcane Wednesday and my reactions to the last three episodes of season 1 are dropping TODAY!!

The Boy Savior

Caitlyn and Vi meet an ally in Zaun's streets and head into a frenzied battle with a common foe; Viktor makes a dire decision.

The ending sequence was phenomenal. This is the first time I’ve really felt a lot of hope for the people of the underground since we lost Vander. I really hope we haven’t lost anyone in this episode. That would be t...

Hotel Transylvania (Early Access)

Happy Spooky Season! Here's a special Halloween movie called Hotel Transylvania. Starring Adam Sandler and Selena Gomez. This is a great family friendly film.

Synopsis: Hotel Transylvania is a luxury resort for monsters who want to get away from the human world. It's run by Count Dracula, who has invited all of his monster friends to celebrate the 118th birthday of his daughter, Mavis. However, complications arise when a human boy shows up!

Also, I cannot even beg...

Hey! Since we're coming up on Halloween, here's a surprise movie reaction treat for you!! Hotel Transylvania has been on my Halloween watchlist for some time now. It was such an adorable family friendly film.

The Addams Family (Full Reaction)

You guys voted and this week the spooky movie is The Addams Family! What a perfect movie for October!! This was fantastic!

Synopsis: A man claiming to be Fester, the lost brother of Gomez Addams, arrives at the Addams' home. His goal is to swindle the Addams family out of their fortune. However, once he makes himself at home, members of the family begin to suspect he is a fraud.

Hope you're having a great week! Halloween is coming up and I've got my Halloween costume. Are you dres...

Monday Movie Update!

Hello! You voted on The Addams Family for this week's Monday Movie. I've been trying to get the reaction up but for some reason it got hit with copyright issues. I'm working on it now and trying to get it up as fast as possible, but just wanted you to know it might take a little longer than usual.

The movie was SO good and I can't wait to share the reaction with you!

Spooky Movie Poll

Hello! I hope you’re having a wonderful Friday! It’s time for another spooky movie poll. Since Alien was a little scarier, I figure we’d throw some lighter films in the mix this time. Happy voting!

Bitter Work

When Aang struggles with a block while trying to learn Earthbending from Toph, he wonders if the problem is with him or his teacher. Meanwhile, Sokka gets himself in a jam.

Toph’s ability to recognize Aang’s tendency to avoid interpersonal conflict is great. She’s a fantastic mentor and really helps to balance out Katara’s nurturing teaching style. Aang’s going to need all of their mentorship and advice if he’s going to become the version o...

The Chase

As the kids are pursued relentlessly by a mysterious machine, their exhaustion puts them at each other's throats.

Seeing Zuko and Aang temporarily being on the same side makes me wonder if he’ll one day train Aang in the ways of Firebending. Perhaps that is just wishful thinking. I really hope Iroh is okay. He’s always filled with so much wisdom and brings such a calming presence to the show.

Zuko Alone

Travelling without Uncle now, Zuko wanders alone into an Earth Kingdom town where he bonds with a local boy. Meanwhile, Zuko is haunted by memories of his own youth.

What an inciteful episode! Not only do we get to see that Zuko is an inherently good person, but he’s really coming into his own. I love how they continue to build up his character in a way that mirrors Aang’s storyline.

Can’t forget to mention how wonderful it was seeing sheep ...

The Blind Bandit

In search for an Earthbending teacher for Aang, the kids go to an underground Earthbending tournament where they encounter Toph, a blind, but powerful Earthbender.

Are we getting a new cast member!? Toph seems like a great addition to this show. Her introduction was so epic. I love how they referenced the WWE to show the different benders fighting each other. Here’s to Toph being Aang’s incredible Earthbending mentor!!

Happy Friday! It’s time to catch up with Aang, Katara, and Sokka!

Avatar Day

Aang and the gang discover an Earth town that celebrates Avatar Day'. They learn that it is not a celebration of the Avatar, but a festival of anger for something Aang did in his past.

It was fun being able to see the gang get into some detective work. Detective Sokka was so entertaining. The Wheel of Punishment was horrifying! Then Iroh had the best words of wisdom, “In the dar...

Arcane S1 E6 (Full Reaction)

When These Walls Come Tumbling Down

An eager protégé undermines his mentor on the council as a magical technology rapidly evolves; with authorities in pursuit, Jinx must face her past.

This was mind blowing! I think this episode highlights the duality of these characters more so than any other episode we've seen. All these characters have flaws but they also have wonderful redeeming qualities. I really hope Viktor is going to be okay...but that poor little creat...

Arcane S1 E5 (Full Reaction)

This world is getting so much more complex! The corruption runs deep in Piltover and I'm getting the impression that Jayce is in way over his head. On the plus side, Caitlyn is really stepping into her own.

Everybody Wants to Be My Enemy

Rogue enforcer Caitlyn tours the undercity to track down Silco; Jayce puts a target on his back trying to root out Piltover corruption.

Watched on: Netflix / Runtime: 40:40

Arcane S1 E4 (Full Reaction)

IT'S ARCANE TIME!!! Three more episodes are coming your way today! Since episode three had such a conclusive ending, I got the impression that this episode might jump forward in time a bit. Turns out, my gut instinct was right. We're now catching up with Piltover a few years into the future and things have changed drastically since we last saw these characters!

Happy Progress Day! 

With Piltover prospering from their tech, Jayce and Viktor weigh their next mo...

Mrs. Doubtfire (Early Access)

Get your popcorn, grab your whipped cream face mask, and let's watch Mrs. Doubtfire! I can't believe that Mrs. Doubtfire is over 30 years old. This movie came out when I was three and I don't think of that as being over three decades ago! 😅

Synopsis: Troubled that he has little access to his children, divorced Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) hatches an elaborate plan. With help from his creative brother Frank (Harvey Fierstein), he dresses as an older British woman and convinces his ...

Alien (Full Reaction)

It's Monday Movie time! You guys voted on Alien as the next spooky movie to watch this Halloween season. Even though this movie isn't Halloween themed, it's the closest things I'll ever watch to a horror movie.

I was so scared throughout this film that I was having trouble forming my thoughts! It was an excellent sci-fi/horror movie and I'm so happy to finally be introduced to Ripley. She's such an iconic character.

Synopsis: In deep space, the crew of the commercial starship No...

The Swamp: When the kids end up in a mysterious and strange swamp, their fears are exposed. And Aang learns about being `connected to the Earth' from an unlikely teacher.

This was a great episode!! "Time is an illusion and so is death," is some fantastic wisdom. The visions the characters had provided a lot of insight into their psyche as well.

Watched on: Netflix / Runtime: 24:36

Return to Omashu: The kids return to Omashu so that Aang can learn Earthbending from King Bumi; however, when they get there, they are shocked to find the city is now in Fire Nation hands.

It was great seeing Bumi again, even if it feels a bit hopeless for him. He still had great advice for Aang that his teacher needs to have patience and neutrality. These villains are entertaining too. Even though I don't like how powerful they are 😅, they are making this season a l...

SECRET TUNNEL!! IN THE MOUNTAIN!! 🎶

The Cave of Two Lovers: On the way to Omashu, the kids meet some nomads who show them a shortcut through the `cave of two lovers'. When they get lost in the caves, they must trust in love to escape.

This was such a cute episode!! The song, the tunnel, the kiss, and the legend behind it all was AWESOME! It also had a great lesson about valuing the journey and not just the destination!

AVATAR FRIDAY IS BACK WITH SEASON 2!!! We are about to embark on the next chapter of this incredible show!! All I can say is, "Yip, yip!"

The Avatar State: Aang and the group meet an Earth Kingdom general who wants to use Aang's powerful `Avatar State' as a weapon to defeat the Fire Nation. But it's more difficult than Aang thinks.

Prince Zuko's sister is fierce...and I kind of hate how powerful she is!! She seems like she's going to be a difficult villain to defe...

The Base Violence Necessary for Change: An epic showdown between old rivals results in a fateful moment for Zaun; Jayce and Viktor risk it all for their research.

HOLY MOTHER OF THE HULK! I did not see this episode taking such a horrifyingly deadly turn! So many of the wonderful characters we've gotten to know since the start of this season are now gone!?!?

I'm not sure where this story is going, but my guess is that the sisters are going to become rivals. I can'...

Arcane S1 E2 (Full Reaction)

Some Mysteries Are Better Left Unsolved: Idealistic inventor Jayce attempts to harness magic through science despite his mentor's warnings; criminal kingpin Silco tests a powerful substance.

I love how we got introduced to new characters in this episode!! I had no idea that magic was a part of this world. Silco is truly terrifying! I am going to need him to be defeated ASAP!

Watched on: Netflix / Runtime: 40:29

Arcane S1 E1 (Full Reaction)

Welcome to the first Arcane Wednesday!!

This show is incredible. It looks like we're jumping right into a really rich and well thought out world of fiction. The characters were extremely empathetic and relatable. I love it! Also, that ending scene was truly terrifying!

Welcome to the Playground: Orphaned sisters Vi and Powder bring trouble to Zaun's underground streets in the wake of a heist in posh Piltover.

Edge of Tomorrow (Early Access)

Hello!! Here is the YouTube edit for Edge of Tomorrow!!! This movie was absolutely MIND-BLOWING!!

Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt team up in this epic action film to take on aliens that are attempting to conquer Earth. While Cage (Cruise) is an officer who has never seen combat, he finds himself thrown into a deadly battle with no survivors.

If you haven't seen this movie, I won't spoil what happens. I went in blind, having never even seen a trailer! I did not see the twist coming!

How It Should Have Ended: Edge of Tomorrow

Hello! Edge of Tomorrow was such a fun film to watch. You voted on it for Movie Monday and it did not disappoint! I really wanted to watch the HISHE video for it, considering the ending of the film was pretty epic. I hope you enjoy this!

Shaun Of The Dead (Full Reaction)

This scary movie parody won in the last Spooky Movie Poll!!! I was worried it would be too scary for me since zombies are terrifying but it was hilarious!

Synopsis: Shaun is a 30-something loser with a dull, easy existence. When he's not working at the electronics store, he lives with his slovenly best friend, Ed, in a small flat on the outskirts of London. The only unpredictable element in his life is his girlfriend, Liz, who wishes desperately for Shaun to grow up and...

The Siege of the North Part 2

Aang seeks help from the ocean and moon spirits, but he can't find them. To add to the problem, many of the spirits he encounters refuse to help him.

We must protect the moon at all costs!!! Also, DON'T LET ANYONE STEAL YOUR FACE!!! Aaah, that was such scary scene!!! I would have had my face stolen. Do you think you could have kept a straight, emotionless face? Let me know!

This was such a great ending to an epic season!!
