The Dark Knight Rises FULL Reaction

**TEARS WERE SHED**  Nolan brings home the final chapter of the Dark Knight trilogy with an epic and thoroughly satisfying ending.  Possibly my favorite soundtrack of the series, and Tom Hardy as Bane makes many other onscreen villains seem inadequate.  Also, Anne Hathaway and Joseph Gordon-Levitt bring strong performances not to be overlooked.  

Anyways, I was so glad that Domi enjoyed these movies, and they're still some of my favorite action films EVER.   View Post

Buffy the Vampire Slayer 2x17 FULL Reaction

So, did anything happen this episode?.... Oh that's right, MISS CALENDAR.  I'm still processing what happened honestly, and I might just have to stop this show (not really, but c'mon!!).  But what a brutally devastating yet amazing episode, I don't even know where we're going to go from here...

The Dark Knight FULL Reaction

Yes, the Joker is amazing.  Yes, the soundtrack is one of Hans Zimmer's best.  And if you're looking for mature themes, exciting and impressive actions sequences, and a sequel that challenges the protagonist in a profound way, both physically and psychologically, look no further than this amazing film.

Batman Begins FULL Reaction

Possibly the greatest origin story ever put to screen.  This one never gets old, and seeing it again made me like it even more than before.  Christian Bale's performance, especially in this first film, was truly amazing.  The atmosphere of Gotham, the dark yet triumphant soundtrack, the grit, and the old-school humor sprinkled throughout... this is my type of superhero film!!

Haunting of Bly Manor Ep 8 FULL Reaction

The style, the story, the performances... this one ties so much together, and was such an unexpected and bold choice for the penultimate episode... definitely one of the highlights for me

Avatar (2009) FULL Reaction

I've heard quite a few people trash on this movie, so I went in just hoping it would be ok... but I was blown away!  Is it the most complex story/ character piece?  Nope.  But from start to finish, the visuals are SO impressive, and the design, along with the effects, create a world that is not only arresting with its colors and creatures, but is so well-realized that I can't think of something that even comes close save maybe Lord of the Rings.  And I actually liked the s...

Insidious Chapter 2 FULL Reaction

Really glad that James Wan came back to "conclude" this story.  Definitely took a few turns and directions I did not expect, and I really like some of the connections/ tie-ins we get with the original movie

Insidious FULL Reaction

Can I just say that the soundtrack in this film is aggressively unsettling... and the concept is really neat for a horror/ thriller situation.  Also...James Wan or Mike Flanagan?  Who do you prefer and why?

Easily one of the most beautiful animations I've seen.  I had NO idea about this one going in, and it really surprised me in a good way.  Definitely recommend

Buffy the Vampire Slayer 2x15 FULL Reaction

Once again, I didn't see it coming, although I think I should have... but I really do love how Oz is becoming a more integral piece in the dynamic of the show, I really hope that continues

Spider Man 3 FULL Reaction

Let's be honest... Emo Peter is the BEST movie character of all time... but in all seriousness, despite this being the weakest of the trilogy imo, there's LOTS to like.  I love black suit Spider Man and the whole concept of Peter getting a bit too comfortable and arrogant with his power and respect, Sand Man has some great effects/ sequences, and Harry... well, if you know, you know...

Well, that was one EPIC way to end the season, and talk about a tease for Season 3!  Lots to like, and lots to speculate about for the future... let me know who your favorite character was now that we've spent two full seasons together!

Spider-Man 2 (2004)

One of the better sequels ever made.  Awesome villain, great action sequences, lots of laughs, and one heck of a great internal conflict for Peter Parker.  This is my favorite Spider-Man movie so far (will No Way Home be better?  we will see...)  But Domi and I had a great time watching, hope y'all enjoy!!

Alright everyone, it's here.... the original Tobey Maguire classic!   Domi and I had a great time watching this one together, don't forget to show her channel some love if you're not caught up with her Buffy reactions.  More Spider-Man w/ Domi will be coming soon in an epic buildup to No Way Home (no spoilers!!).  Hope y'all enjoy!!!!

Predator (1987) FULL Reaction

Pure, focused, innovative, action cinema.  Lots of great quotes, and Arnold is perfect for the lead here.  Also, the sound of the Predator alone deserves an award.

Weakest Buffy Episode? Favorite Movie? (#2 livestream)

**NOTE** So far, I have enjoyed every episode of Buffy... so this isn't a stream focused on negatives, it's more of a fun discussion of which episode so far you consider weakest in terms of writing, story, execution, and personal preference.  I'd love to hear what people thought and why.  Also, most of this stream is just rambling haha so fair warning, it's not too organized.  But I had a BLAST doing it honestly, I love hanging out and talking with you all about the show, so I ...
