Okay, folks. Nearly a week after everyone else, I have finally seen Infinity War.
Most people loved it. Some people really didn’t. And I’m pretty much right where I expected to be: firmly in the middle. Try and contain your shock.
Underdogs!
“I Am One With The Force. The Force Is With Me.”
Mekaela and I spent Christmas in Taft, California this year, visiting our dad. Taft is a small place in the middle of absolute nowhere (though, in fairness, I feel obligated to point out that it is actually larger than the place I grew up) and during the holidays, when everything is closed downtown except the movie theater and one corner mini market, Taft feels quite a bit like an actual ghost town. Which made walking through it pretty awesome, actually.
As none of us had seen Rogue One yet, the family St. George decided to watch it on Christmas afternoon. Considering the movie had come out weeks before and I had just spent the last hour walking through a town that I had happily pretended was post-Rapture, I thought there was a more than decent chance that I would finally, finally see a movie with no one but the people who had accompanied me to the theater.

“In The End, You Wind Up Dying All Alone On Some Dirty Street. And For What? For Nothing. For A Tin Star.”
Enough procrastinating. It’s time to get back to the list.
This is the oldest western on my list, and I think my favorite to date. (Okay, I’ve watched three movies thus far. Still. It’s is a good one.)
“That’s Right, Bitches. I’ve Got a Crossbow.”
I’ve been on a Chris Evans kick lately, so I decided to watch The Losers again.
It’s definitely a problematic movie, but I enjoy it all the same. And Chris Evans isn’t even the only reason! (Though, admittedly, he’s probably the biggest one.) Continue reading
“While You Were Still Learning How to Spell Your Name, I Was Being Trained to Conquer Galaxies!”
All right, folks. The Day of Reckoning has come.
Some of you may remember that I failed last year’s horror film challenge and, as a result, invited you to choose my punishment movie. You chose Battlefield Earth because you’re horrible monsters, all of you.
Now that I’ve finally seen this movie, I feel qualified to say that nobody deserves this film inflicted upon them. No one.
“Arrogance Is Not a Uniquely American Trait, But You Do It Better Than Most.”
I finally saw Captain America: The First Avenger last week.
I’ve never been a gigantic Captain America fan, so I really didn’t think I had any expectations going in. And yet, somehow, I still managed to find it disappointing.
