🍀 This Week's Schedule 🍿
Added 2025-03-11 13:33:34 +0000 UTCHi friends!
I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to take a moment to share a little life update before diving into this week's schedule. Over the weekend, I found out that my grandmother isn't doing well, and it's left me a bit shaken. She's still with us, but in rapid decline, and our last phone call was essentially her saying goodbye. This is my first time dealing with something like this in real life, and honestly, I'm not sure how to process it just yet.
Because of that, I'm giving myself a little bit of grace this week and keeping things slightly lighter. The Pacific will be on hold until next week, but I have a plan to still wrap it up by the end of March! We'll be picking back up with three episodes next week and the final three the following week. I truly appreciate your understanding- I know this series is an emotional one, and I think taking this pause is the right call for me during this week.
As for the schedule ahead, we still have some great watches:
🕷️ Spider-Man: Far From Home
A Spider-man movie to close out Phase 3? I'm both excited and nervous. Peter meant so much to Tony, and I don't think I'm ready to see the aftermath of what the world looks like with three of the most amazing Avengers gone since Endgame. But I'm still excited to wrap up this incredible phase with you all!
🎟️ Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World | Movie Ticket Pick
This one is thanks to our awesome community member, John! He has been dying for me to watch it every time it pops up on the poll, and now the time has finally come! I have no idea what to expect, but based on the cover art alone, I know I'm in for a wild ride. Thank you for the pick, John! Really looking forward to this one!
🚘 Back to the Future Part II
We're jumping back into this classic trilogy! This time, Marty, Jennifer, and Doc are heading to the future to check on Marty and Jennifer's kids... because apparently, they're acting out? 🤣 I loved the first movie so much, and I can't wait to dive even deeper into this chaos.
Thank you all so much for your time, love, and support. It's been awesome talking with everyone about their thoughts and experiences during Endgame! I appreciate this space more than words can say, and you all seriously make my movie experiences 10x better.
Much love and see you all soon! 💚
Comments
I am looking forward to all these reactions of course (though Scott Pilgrim and BTTF II aren't streaming anywhere currently, and I'm about to move and already packed up all my DVDs and Blu-Rays so I'm going to have to figure something out for the full-lenght :D). But also with your family troubles, please take care of yourself and your family and don't worry about us over here. We'll be here.

2025-03-13 22:51:06 +0000 UTCThank you Andy, it's definitely hard and after my father passed I was glad we got 7 more years with my mother before she went. It's not an easy time but you get through it the best you can. Sorry to hear about your father, the only thing we can do is keep them in our heart.

2025-03-13 20:41:46 +0000 UTCAndy, thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so sorry that you lost both of your grandmothers so close together, I can't even imagine. I'm glad that you got at least got to say goodbye to both. In a way that has made this a lot harder (saying goodbyes), but I know that this closure right now is really important. I really appreciate your words of advice. They help me feel saner during this time where my emotions are all over the place :) I appreciate you, thank you!
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 20:04:43 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry for the loss of your Dad, Evert. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with loss and how you got through it. I really appreciate it and your well wishes 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:59:10 +0000 UTCI'm sorry to hear about your Mom. Thank you so much for sharing your own experience with loss. It helps show me that even though it hurts so bad now, it will get better and there will be days that I can remember the memories without feeling like they might just break me. Thank you for your super kind words 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:57:59 +0000 UTCThank you, Jeff 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:56:44 +0000 UTCThank you so much, Paul 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:56:33 +0000 UTCI really appreciate the kind and warm words! That's the best advice, "just feel the emotions" don't try to hold them back. Thank you! 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:56:13 +0000 UTCThank you so much, Robert 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:55:25 +0000 UTCI have so many amazing and beautiful memories with my grandmother. She raised me and my sister for 8 years and I'll always be thankful that her and my grandfather were there for us when our own parents weren't. They did everything/anything they could to support us during a rough time. I'm so sorry to hear about your grandparent, too. It's definitely not an easy time. But I really appreciate these kind words and thoughts and I'm right along there with you 🤍
Kali Wali
2025-03-13 19:55:00 +0000 UTCThank you Andy, and I'm sorry for your losses as well. It's never easy, but losing two loved ones back to back is just unfair, and I can only imagine how difficult that was. But it definitely helps knowing there are good people and good communities out there to lean on. And you know what's funny, my Nana used to say almost the exact same thing you just did - "All we can do is take it one day at a time." Thanks for jogging that memory of her :) Cheers buddy.
Dude Longcouch
2025-03-13 17:21:54 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry you lost so many loved ones, Joe. I've lost all my grandparents, my dad went last year, and I just have my mom now, and dear heavens, I'm dreading that one; it scares me thinking about that one too, 'cause I know I'm going to take it super hard, too. I hope you get as much time with your grandma to make as many more good memories with her as possible. Take good care, and be well.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 17:10:59 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry to hear you lost your grandmother too, Dude. I lost both my grandmothers back-to-back, and it was gut-wrenching, to say the least. I'm sending all the positive vibes I can back to you, and I hope it gets a little better and easier for you every day. Grief is a journey, not a destination, but I think as long as we're doing the best we can, seeing it through to another day, that's all we can do. Cheers, friend.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 17:06:17 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry you lost your dad, PT. I lost my dad last year, and it hit me out of nowhere 'cause I didn't even know he was sick. I'm sorry it's been so difficult for you to get through, but I hope it at least gets a little better and a little easier for you every day, and that you're able to treasure the time you got to have with him with more peace, clarity and wisdom each time. Take good care of yourself, PT. Be well.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 17:01:52 +0000 UTCHi John, I just wanted to extend my thoughts and condolences to you for losing both your mom and dad. I lost my dad last year, and I'm so scared of losing my mom, which I know is going to come before I know it. I hope you have lots of good memories with them to keep them alive for you in spirit to help you through. All my best.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:52:43 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry you lost your granddad, Justin, and so recently. I lost both my grandfathers when I was little, both of cancer, and I wish I'd gotten to know them better than I did, but I still miss them a lot, so I hope you're able to at least get a little better at it each day. Unfortunately, time never tells us when we're going to get through it, and perhaps we don't completely, but we learn to live with it, and feel joy when we remember them more often than sadness. Thank your for sharing your granddad's memory here, and I hope the next time you think about him and feel the tears coming, you try to celebrate your good memories of him amidst the grief. I lost my uncle when I was eight, and I still cry sometimes when I think about him and what he meant to me. Thank you for sharing your granddad's memory and life with us. Give yourself all the time you need, Justin, and be well.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:48:06 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry you lost your grandmother, Oliver. I lost both my grandmothers to Alzheimer's, too, and within three months of each other. It's a tough one, I know, but I hope you'll get through it okay, and that you have loved ones that will help you through. I hope the funeral goes okay, all things considered. Take good care of yourself, Oliver.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:32:10 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry to hear you lost your mom. I know I'm staring down that barrel myself with my own mom one day, and it terrifies me. I'm so sorry you went through that, so thank you for sharing your memory of her. They say you die twice: the first time when you die, and the second time the last time someone says your name. I hope you'll keep her name alive as long as you can, and thank you for sharing her memory and life here with us. Be well.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:28:46 +0000 UTCAll my condolences for losing your dad, Evert. I lost my dad last year. It's taken a while to work through all the feelings, and it still comes up every so often, so I hope you have loved ones in your life to lean on whenever it's difficult for you. Be good to yourself as much as you can.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:25:16 +0000 UTCAll my best thoughts to you, Matt. I hope you'll be able to lean on fond memories of your grandmother and loved ones, as well, to help get you through it. That's what we're all here for. It took some time to get over my own grandmothers' passings, since they happened very close together, but I felt fortunate we all got enough time to say goodbye, and I hope you're able to do the same. Take care.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:21:37 +0000 UTCI just wanted to join the chorus, Kali, and extend my thoughts and condolences to you and your grandmother. I lost both my grandmothers within three months of each other to the same disease, and while I was fortunate enough to have time to say my goodbyes to both of them days before they left, it took a while to recover from it, but it helped knowing they weren't suffering anymore. Please take all the time you need to cope and feel whatever you need as long as you need, because it does take time, and life always comes first. Lean on any loved one you can during this time, because they want to be there to help you. Be well.
Andy Jordan
2025-03-13 16:17:34 +0000 UTCKali, my last grandparent (paternal grandmother) is also on Heaven's doorstep. I know what you're going through. It isn't easy, there's nothing we can say to erase pain. I hope you have many fond memories you can remember about her, and that your family can pull together. I will pray for you and your family to try to find some peace in all this. Matt
Matt Rowland
2025-03-13 07:11:41 +0000 UTCHi Kali, I lost my dad in 2013, and well, it always stay’s with me, so I gave it a place in my mind and heart. I wish for you Strength and Peacefulness in the coming days.
Evert Jethoe
2025-03-12 09:11:17 +0000 UTCWhen I lost my mom, it was like a piece of my heart was torn out, even months later if someone brought her up, my eyes would get watery. But when they say that time heals, it's true, after a while you'll be able to talk about them without getting choked up and life does go on, but you'll never forget them or how much they loved you, and you'll smile again about all the good times you had with them.

2025-03-12 07:14:37 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry to hear about about your grandmother. Take your time with this loss. Grief has its own schedule. If God brought you to it, he'll get you through it. Looking forward to your reactions. I've seen Spider-Man FFH and Scott Pilgrim, but not BTTF2. God bless your sweet spirit, Kali and stay strong.
Paul Wright
2025-03-12 02:05:32 +0000 UTCVery sorry to hear about your grandmother.
Jeff Slocum
2025-03-11 23:33:34 +0000 UTCTake as much time as you need. Sorry you’re going through it. Very brave of you to share it. So thank you. It’s never easy to lose somebody especially someone so close. Take the time to cherish the memories and lean on the people closest to you. You’ll get through it and we’ll be here. 🙏. Don’t try to hold back your feelings. Feel them all and if the expected happens. Take your time going through the process. We all be here waiting for you when you get back. ❤️

2025-03-11 21:12:16 +0000 UTCSorry to hear about your grandmother Kali. Although it’s a part of life, that doesn’t make it any easier And don’t worry if you need to take a little personal time. We’ll be here when you’re ready Sending you warm thoughts
Robert da Spruce
2025-03-11 19:38:40 +0000 UTCI'm sorry for your loss, Oliver. Alzheimer's is so hard to deal with so I can imagine that it was a shock but also hopefully a peaceful moment for her as well 💚 Thank you for sharing and for your thoughts. I really appreciate it!
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 17:11:44 +0000 UTCThank you so much, Jp 💚

Kali Wali
2025-03-11 17:10:29 +0000 UTCThank you so, so much 💚 This is really beautiful advice. I appreciate you and your thoughts!
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 17:10:19 +0000 UTCI feel like hearing similar stories helps me deal with what's going on in my own head right now. So I really appreciate it and you for sharing. Thank you so much for the kind words and for your prayers during this time, it means so much to me! 💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 17:09:30 +0000 UTCYou all are beautiful people. Thank you so much for all of your kind words and thoughts as I feel all of the emotions about my grandma 💚 I really appreciate every single one of you and feel lucky to have such a thoughtful community of koalas here. Love you all
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 17:07:58 +0000 UTCI’m sorry to hear your grandmother isn’t doing too well. I can somewhat relate as my grandmother passed away at the end of January. I wasn’t expecting her to go when she did, but she did have Alzheimer’s. It’s a surreal feeling for me, I’ve got the funeral this week.
Oliver Jayawant
2025-03-11 15:31:03 +0000 UTCKali, my friend, I'm so sorry to hear about your grandmother! May the Lord bless and comfort you and your family, reminding you of the good times you've shared. 💖
Phil Stubblefield
2025-03-11 15:29:10 +0000 UTCKali, I hope you receive all the love and strength you need from those close to you during this difficult time.
KJ Gould
2025-03-11 15:20:05 +0000 UTCWish and your Family all the best dear. Stay strong and hold on to all the good you had with her. Its whats matters the most. Try to understand its part of our life to let go and take it easy as much and as long as you need. Never forget that you are loved by a lot of people and they are holding your hand and having your back in their thoughts and feelings.

2025-03-11 14:58:04 +0000 UTCMy dearest sympathies for your Grandmother. I lost my Granddad just last year, when I heard the news it broke me and just thinking about it tears me up. I don’t mean to bring that up to compare or even say I know what you’re going through because we all deal differently even if it’s a similar situation. But I say this to say that it’s hard losing something or someone that’s been a part of your life for as long as you’ve known and I can understand if it’s something you need to deal with. You’re a brilliant reactor and I enjoy your content, commentary and engagement. I sincerely hope you can get through this and take however time you need to deal with this. My prayers for you and your family.

2025-03-11 14:24:22 +0000 UTCMy heart goes out to you and your family. Take as much time as you need kali
Jp Davis
2025-03-11 14:07:34 +0000 UTCThank you so much, Richard 💚 No Hawaiian haha, just a silly nickname I gave her when I was really little. Probably like 3 or 4 and it just stuck. Since then, the whole family has always called her Maki. She is an incredible grandma and woman and I'm just really glad she got to live a long and beautiful life.
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 14:06:28 +0000 UTCThank you, Simon 💚🍿 Looking forward to this week, too! It's a great one full of all the vibes
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 14:04:36 +0000 UTCThank you so much for the positive vibes and thoughts 💚 On a lighter note, I am really looking forward to the lineup this week! Finishing out phase 3 with Spider-Man, Scott Pilgrim AND another BttF? I feel like it's the perfect mix of distractions and light-hearted wholesomeness 🍿
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 14:04:12 +0000 UTCYou're welcome 💛 You'll always have the memories. Sometimes that's good, and sometimes that bad, because it makes it hurt again but memories are very precious🙏🙏

2025-03-11 14:02:48 +0000 UTCThank you so much 💚💚💚
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 14:02:44 +0000 UTCThank you so much, John. It's a relief to hear that I'm supposed to feel this way, which is not really sure how to feel at all 😭🤣 On a lighter note, I'm definitely looking forward to the movies this week here! Especially your pick finally!! I know you've been raving about Scott Pilgrim for a while not and I'm really excited to jump in this week :)
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 14:02:36 +0000 UTCThank you so much. It's really hard to see her decline so much and want to let go, but I just keep trying to remember how long and wonderful her life has been. Your thoughts and prayers are so kind 💚 See you in some light-hearted movies this week! :)
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 13:56:54 +0000 UTCMy heart is bleeding for you Kali. She knows how much you loved her and I'm sure it gives her peace. Thoughts and prayers with you and your family. Please know we all care about you very deeply and so do whatever you need to take care of yourself first. Maki is an adorable name for a grandma btw. Is there Hawaiian in there?
Richard
2025-03-11 13:55:44 +0000 UTCFinally Scott Pilgrim! Great choice and another banger of a lineup. Sending all the love to you and your family.
Simon Haynes
2025-03-11 13:54:58 +0000 UTCThank you so much Maz for your kind words here and in the discord 💚 It means a lot. I know nooothing about Scott Pilgrim so I'm excited to check it out too! I hope you enjoy it!
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 13:54:35 +0000 UTCI'm really sorry to hear about your grandmother. I went through the same thing last year, and it's never easy. Sending you and your family all the positive vibes I can. Big thanks to John for spending his movie ticket on Scott Pilgrim. I have also been crazy excited for you to watch it, it's one of my favorite movies and it's a perfect reaction movie. If you wanted something lighthearted, funny, and exciting, you made the right call. Between that and Spider-Man, it's an absolutely stacked week.
Dude Longcouch
2025-03-11 13:51:35 +0000 UTCI'm in the same boat. My grandmother (I've always called her Maki lol) and grandfather raised me and my sister for 8 years during Middle into High School. They have always been my true parents in my heart.
Kali Wali
2025-03-11 13:50:22 +0000 UTCOur thoughts are with you, Kali. Adjust your schedule however you need. ❤️

2025-03-11 13:47:24 +0000 UTCHang in there Kali, I lost both of my parents, my dad 8 years ago and my mother last year. It is a time of ups and downs but in the end, I was at least happy they were at peace. Distractions are good so hopefully the movies you have chosen to do this week can help you take a break from your mind over thinking too much. Everyone processes grief differently and there is no wrong way to feel what you need to feel. I can't speak for everyone but you take what time you need, I'm not going anywhere.
John A
2025-03-11 13:47:20 +0000 UTCPrayers for you this week. It's tough losing someone you love. Watching my dad decline last year and losing him at new years was the hardest thing I've been through. Take the time you need. As always, we will be here. 💛🙏🤗 As always, excited about Spider-Man and BttF2.
P T
2025-03-11 13:46:57 +0000 UTCWishing you all the best during this time. I'm really glad you're taking a lighter week over here. These three movies are all going to be the perfect vibes for this week I'm probably going to go watch Scott Pilgrim tonight. I've never watched it and heard so many good things about it. So I really want to check it out for myself first before seeing your reaction haha
M1 Maz
2025-03-11 13:43:34 +0000 UTCLosing grandparents is hard. Take whatever time you need. I have one grandma left and she was the one who babysat me for my parents when I was young and when she goes I know I will take it hard.
