Hazbin Hotel eps 5-8

All in all, a fantastic show, and one I'm really glad to have seen.  Can't wait for more!

Sickness and tech problems have conspired against me, so the youtube cut of this is going to be very late, possibly even postponed to next week, depending on how things go.

Attack on Titan eps 64-67

We finally see the old gang again, but seems a lot went down that we didn't see, and I'm so curious if we're going to see it or get an explanation!  And it's so FRUSTRATING to actually see the vicious cycle of war repeating itself over and over, especially when you understand WHY it's happening.

Breaking Bad S3 E11

Definitely more happening this week than last time, Walt's exciting double life is quickly falling apart with Skyler trying to insert herself, and Jesse's past can't stop haunting him.  He can't avenge Jane but I think he thinks he can get some relief by avenging Combo.  And fucking Gus just chills me whenever he's on screen, no matter what he's doing.

Hazbin Hotel pt 1 Youtube cut

Yeah, yeah, jumping on a bandwagon just a little bit.  I heard about this show nonstop last week and it piqued my interest, so I checked it out.  If it does well, I'll do the rest, and if not I'll finish it up over here only.  Hope you like it!

Hazbin Hotel eps 1-4

I've been hearing about this show constantly, I had to check it out!  The pacing is a little inconsistent but the songs are incredible and I think it takes a big step in episode 4.  Hopefully this will be the shot in the arm the channel needs, but if not, at least I'm trying stuff 🤣

I feel like this show makes a point to go in directions that literally no one can predict, yet it somehow always works.  After just dumping all that info on us at the end of Season 3, we now get dumped into an entirely new world and have to try to navigate our feelings about what we're seeing and learning.  

Having Eren show up was a huge surprise, and I was even more surprised...

Venom youtube cut

Pretty much exactly what we expected, a lot of fun and a great time!  My first collab, so I hope the editing turned out ok, it's a LOT more work than going alone 😅

Venom full commentary with Movies In Depth

This was SO MUCH fun to do!  We did miss a few plot points because we were just there to have a good time together, and I was also a little nervous since this is my first collab video 😅  but I hope you guys enjoy it!

Breaking Bad S3 E10

Definitely a change of pace after the excitement of the last few episodes.  Clearly a metaphor I'm either not meant to understand yet, or I'm too dumb to.  Either way, enjoy!  Only 3 more episodes left in the season, I expect some shit to start hitting fans pretty quick here.

The Girl With All the Gifts full commentary

Whooo Nelly was this an intense movie!  I had no idea what it was and I'm so GLAD because I think it really added to the whole atmosphere.  The whole first part was just trying to understand what was happening, and then it was all about looking at this kind of situation from the other side of the fence.  Top notch film, thanks to DroidC for the request, LOVED IT!

Attack on Titan eps 56-59

Third season done and WOW.  We go so long in this show not really getting any information for long periods and this batch was just overloaded with it!  There are a couple of times where I had to skip back because it was so much, as well as some cuts for unrelated interruptions, so my apologies for that.  

Next week, we start season 4!  Don't forget to leave suggestion...

I feel like Walt is hardcore playing with fire here, and wtf Jesse?

Sorry it's late btw, if the weekly video hits any snags it tends to mess everything else up 😅

Well, *sort of* the Youtube cut.  It already got popped for copyright, but you'll get the director's cut, I guess 🤣

The word I keep saying is "interesting," which is totally accurate.  Good and a little strange at times, but certainly worth the watch!  Many thanks to Solain for the request, and I hope you all enjoy 💜

ahahaha this was SWEET!  I feel a little dumb for not putting together who Il Duce was until the last possible second but that do be how it goes sometimes.  Hope you like it, youtube cut will be up as soon as I'm done.

I didn't know what to expect with this movie, but what a pleasant surprise!  I laughed a LOT and had a really good time with it 😊  Thanks to Tom Tattershall for this Plaid Tier request, and I hope you all enjoy watching it with me!

Good Will Hunting youtube cut

This is one I always felt like I should see, so I'm glad I finally did.  It was pretty touching and got me thinking about a lot of things, and I'm always happy to see Robin Williams 💜

Good Will Hunting full commentary

A very good movie, even though sometimes it felt very much like it was trying too hard to be Art.  Definitely a focus on character over story, and I feel like it delivered on that, I especially liked Robin Williams as the shrink.  Hope you enjoy!

Attack on Titan eps 49-52

This show is starting to make more sense to me as an epic that spans a lot of time, and I wonder if it's going to get even broader as we go on.  We're clearly at a pivotal point here, and of course just with more and more questions!

Breaking Bad S3E7

This was a BIG episode - a lot of emotional moments between Hank and Jesse having breakdowns, Walt making inexplicable choices, and then those final few minutes were heart pounding!

IT'S HERE!!!  I've been asked to do this one for so long and I've WANTED TO but I couldn't get it anywhere and didn't want to pirate it.  But I finally found it streaming, and it was a BLAST!  

I'm still figuring things out but I'm seeing more and more people dropping the sync-along style so I'm putting a toe in the water and putting this one up as a fully integrated comme...

Attack on Titan eps 44-48

I don't know if it's just me, but Season 3 feels like an entirely different show.  Not always in a bad way, it's very interesting how we've gone from exclusively fighting Titans to more political intrigue and human struggles for power.  I was pretty worried about Krista/Historia's total character 180 - she really felt off to me without any context but I think they've kind of course co...

Wasn't sure what I was getting into here, but ended up with a very good WWII movie that DIDN'T break my soul!

Breaking Bad S3 E6

Hooo, that was a close call!  And now Hank is likely heading toward one of his own.  What I like about this show is that it basically lives in "the gray."  There is no black and white anywhere in this world, everything is complicated and there are no easy answers.

I want to wish all of you a very HAPPY New Year!  This past year has been a dream, I'm not even sure it's real sometimes.  I've achieved things I wouldn't have thought possible, I've done things I only wished before.  And the next year is set up to be even better!  All of this happened because of YOU.  Every one of you, and I couldn't be more grateful 💜  Let's g...
