This Week!

Hello everyone! This week is all about fun fantasy worlds.

You voted on Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Amongst Thieves!! I'm continuing with Loki S2, which has been such a joy. And, I'm so excited to watch Puss In Boots!!

After watching all of the previous Shrek movies, it will be fun to jump back into this fairytale world and catch up with the cutest and deadliest cat known to animation.

For YT Early Access, there's Ted Lasso S2 E5 and Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse.

(YT Edit) The Martian

Okay, I've uploaded The Martian here to Patreon since I was having trouble with it on YT. I think I've got it all sorted out now, but I hope you enjoy!

Despite this movie being about survival, there was something delightfully funny and comforting about this film. Matt Damon did a phenomenal job as Mark. I was surprised to see half of Hollywood in this film!

Hope you enjoy!

(Full Reaction) Hot Tub Time Machine 2

Are you ready to go on a time traveling hot tub adventure...again?! While I enjoyed the first one more, this was actually a really lovely follow up to the first film. The last 15 minutes of this film could have been an entire plot for another movie!

Watched on: HBO MAX / Runtime 1:33:20

Happy Time Traveling!

(Full Reaction) I Am Groot S2

I Am Groot returns for its second season! In these five short episodes, Groot gets up to more mischief while traveling through space. I just saw that Disney+ describes Groot as a troublemaking twig and think that name is hilarious!

This Week

Hey everyone! I hope you are having a great start to your week. 😊 I'm trying to take things a little slower and really enjoy the small stuff. It's important to celebrate the small wins, like the delicious cup of vanilla earl grey I just made! So, this is your reminder to celebrate yourself!

This week is all about sequels. The two movies coming your way are Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey and Hot Tub Time Machine 2. Then I'm jumping into S2 of I Am Groot and Loki. While those shows are...

(YT Early Access) Ted Lasso S2 E3

This episode is really where we start to see Sam shine. It's also nice to see Jamie back on the team. As I revisit this show for the YT edits, I'm reminded by how often I expect conflict and worst case scenarios to unfold in the plot. Yet, the people in this world reward kindness, forgive easily, and are just incredible people. It's such a lovely world to be in.

I hope you enjoy this!

Movie Suggestions!

It's time to collect your movie suggestions! Let me know what movies you'd like for me to add to future polls or if there are certain poll themes you would like for me to create.

Now that Severance has ended, I'm planning on having a few weeks where I watch two movies a week before jumping into the next TV show. I'll put up a TV show poll in a few weeks!

(Full Reaction) Severance S2 E810

HOLY MOTHER OF THE HULK! What a season finale! Even though I talked for like 20 minutes at the end, I still don't think I wrapped up all of my thoughts about this show.

The ending was intentionally evocative and now that I've had a smidge more time to process how I feel, I really loved it. It's funny because even though Mark is the main character, I like most of the other characters more than him.

I love how Helly is such a fighter, how I'm rooting for and against Milchick at the ...

The After Hours

There were two scenes in this episode that really shined. The first was between Burt and Irving. The second was between Mr. Drummond and Milchick! It was very rewarding to see.

Considering how much they are developing Milchick's character, I'd love to see him evolve past his loyalty to Lumen and join team Macrodata Refinement Rebellion!

Watched on: Apple TV / Runtime: 52:39

The finale is being uploaded right now! I'll post it as soon as it finishes uplo...

Sweet Vitriol

This episode was waaay too short! That being said, it revealed a lot about the severance program. I'm blown away!

Watched on: Apple TV / Runtime: 44:41

(YT Edit) The Hunchback of Notre Dame

This movie was so much more intense than I was expecting! The animation is gorgeous, and the music is truly beautiful, with the song Out There being my favorite. Quasimodo is so kind despite his horrifically difficult life! What a wonderfully inspiring character. His passion for life is contagious.

This film tackles some deeper themes than most Disney films I've seen. At times, it felt a bit heavy with such an intense villain. Frollo is the most horrible Disney villain I'v...

(Full Reaction) Secret Invasion S1 E6

Here is the season finale of Secret Invasion!! It's called Home.

The future of Earth rests on Nick Fury's shoulders. Can he save us all or are we doomed? Cue dramatic music...

(Full Reaction) Secret Invasion S1 E5

Harvest

There is unrest amongst the Skrulls and Gravik doesn't like it. Fury has to muster all of his strength while he's being hunted down.

It was nice to see a cameo from Rick Mason! I didn't remember his name but I knew he helped Nat out a while back. I love how the MCU puts those little details into their projects.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: 38:40

(Full Reaction) Secret Invasion S1 E4

Hey everyone! I'm posting the last three episodes to Secret Invasion tonight! First up is S1 E4 and it's titled Beloved.

Fury is forced to make some hard sacrifices while Gravik and the rebel Skrulls attack the US President.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: 37:33

Hope you enjoy!!

(YT Early Access) Dumbo

Dumbo is a tender, heartfelt story that highlights the struggles of being different, the power of hope, and the importance of friendship. Dumbo’s journey reminds me a little of Shrek’s since they both deal with societal beauty standards and the message that what makes you different can be your strength.

I was also pleasantly surprised to see my favorite ride at Disneyland portrayed in this film! What’s your favorite ride at Disneyland?

Hope you enjoy!

(Full Reaction) Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

This over the top comedy is such a feel good film. Bill and Ted are on the verge of failing their history exam, but are helped by a time traveling phone booth. They go on an incredible adventure that will change the future of the universe!

What makes this movie even better is that it stars sheep! It still brings me endless joy whenever I see sheep in a movie.

This Week!

Hey everyone! This is a jam-packed week of content! This week's theme is somehow revolving around the number three, since all the TV shows and YT edits are coming in cycles of three.

The last three episodes of Secret Invasion AND Severance are coming your way! These shows are both ending, and I hope the season finales are as epic as expected. Thank you for pointing out last week that I Am Groot comes before Loki S2. I'll make sure to include that in the schedule.

Hope you all had an incredible 4th of July! What better way to celebrate than by watching an episode of Ted Lasso!

I recorded this reaction in a different place, but will be back in my normal environment for the next episode. It was a fun change of pace though!

The twist at the end of this episode is really going to shake things up!

Hope you enjoy!

(YT Edit) Jaws

Jaws is a legitimately terrifying movie! I found myself clutching my legs, hoping they would be saved from a terrifying shark attack. Despite this movie being decades old, it still holds up!!

Happy early 4th of July! Hope you aren't too afraid to go to the beach after this!
