Soulmate. 7.5/10

I wouldn't recommend this drama to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this drama.

Season 1

Arata is cute, but no Taecyeon. Taecyeon is so handsome, I cannot contain. I love the mood of this whole drama. What a great sister. I love us messaging. Oh, to be domestic with Taecyeon. Love the paintings. Amen to fisherman Taec. Lmao me hiring Taecyeon for the same reason. Sumiko so pretty.

The sculptures being burnt is crazy. Sitting in the pews of a church while it's burning down is such a mood.

lmaooo at Ryeowook.

Poor Sumiko. I did cry.

The Fantastic Four (1994) dir. Oley Sassone. 6.7/10

I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this movie.

I don't know the age difference between Reed and Susan, but nope. Although aadult her looks like an adult. Everything is so cheesy and a bit dramatic. Villains like this kinda Doom are annoying lol. I wouldn't be taking Dr. Doom seriously. He was my colleague and now he's dressed up like this, being serious about it, and is going by Dr. Doom?

The vibe of the villains reminds me of the thieves in Home Alone.

Alicia caring for Ben so much after their one interaction is kinda wild. It's highly weird the way the villains are behaving when kidnapping Alicia. Ben's journey with the homeless is kinda random.

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984) dir. Hayao Miyazaki. 風の谷のナウシカ (1984) dir. 宮崎 駿. 7.8/10

I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I would rewatch this movie.

I'm thinking of the alien Avatar.

I like this flyer. I want one. I love people being down to be bit by an animal to care for it. I like Kai and Kui. Ohm's eye is cool. I like the giant warriors. I love how boss Nausicaa is when fighting. She's so cool. She's so bold and caring and independent. She's a good leader. She might be my favorite character from all of Ghibli. I like the landscapes in this film, esp. the area under the Sea of Decay. Nausicaa ziplining to her glider is so cool.

The Ramparts of Ice. 氷の城壁. 7.4/10

I wouldn't recommend this anime to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this anime.

I'm loving the height difference. I relate to the contradicting self. The animal figurines the teacher uses is cute. I do like how real all these emotions and thoughts are. Good dog. That's a nice school balcony. I do ship Yota and Koyun. I love when Koyun turns into a webtoon character. I like frog Koyun.

Making fun of a water bottle is so dumb.

Alien: Earth. 7.6/10

I wouldn't recommend this show to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this show.

Season 1

Wendy's look is making me think of Amelie.

Boy Kavalier wanting an interesting convo is so dumb to me. I hate too-rich, too-smart people. You do not have a personality. Noo this poor sheep. Noo not alien eggs in the water bottle. I will say Malachite is not someone I would hire for this job. Why are we not utilizing the best equipment and personnel for this kinda job? and what are we even doing eating in the lab? What are the safety protocols here? I do think Morrow is too extreme in not the best way, but also I agree that Zoya isn't right to be captain at the moment.

When does the xenomorph decide to attack or not?

Xenomorph is so slobbery. Biology is the study of life, sir. This eyeball's just like I need a body.

Predator: Badlands (2025) dir. Dan Trachtenberg. 7.6/10

I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this movie.

What fun fighting sequences. I like these weapons and character design. I like Bud. This was more fun than Alien: Earth. Cutting creatures in half is cool. That beheading was cool tho.

Zootopia 2 (2025) dir. Jared Bush, Byron Howard. 7.5/10

I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this movie.

The collective gasp at Pawpert's reveal. Not the recorder break. That hurt us all. Not the sheep body building like that.

I just love how much Nick and Judy loves each other. I like Nibbles. It's kinda beautiful to build a place welcoming to all body types. I like Nick in a suit.

lol at the Ratatouille ref.

Frankenstein (2025) dir. Guillermo del Toro. 7.5/10

I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends. I wouldn't rewatch this movie.

I love that ship in the beginning. I like that wooden piano. These notes are written and drawn so beautifully. That view from the castle is incredible. These dissections and assembly are fun.

This poor frozen horse.

Peeling the wolf is wild.

Victor, you lying scumbag.
