Cowboy Bebop: Blue Crow Waltz (2021)

Above all, my primary focus pertains to the comprehensive examination of this particular session. Naturally, one must acknowledge that adaptations may inherently deviate from their original sources; a concession I readily accept. However, a quandary arises when we opt to discard each intricate facet that contributes to the inherent beauty of the original work, yielding potential consequences such as those encountered in the case of Cowboy Bebop (2021), particularly within the context of this specific session.

In the context of the Cowboy Bebop (1998) narrative, the notion of memory is rendered tangible, spontaneously manifesting upon the screen in a non-linear fashion. Our comprehension of the characters' respective backgrounds remains somewhat limited, akin to ephemeral dreams-moments not easily classified as mere flashback sequences. It is through this method that the viewer becomes an active participant, meticulously filling the narrative lacunae. This aspect constitutes one of the many engrossing dimensions intrinsic to Cowboy Bebop (1998). Regrettably, this adaptation serves to dismantle such an enchantment.

I am cognizant of the notion that the replacement of the original material is an endeavor that gains merit when superior content is at one's disposal, thereby permitting the creation of a novel entity. Nonetheless, the session in question here presents an unrefined and formulaic backstory concerning the character Spike. One may be prompted to question: how is it that the fleeting appearance of Julia in the anime leaves an indelible mark upon the audience, while her recurrent presence throughout each episode of the adaptation fails to weave a comparable spell? Curiously, Julia wields a plethora of attributes within this adaptation-musical talents, a potent allure, and an embodiment of the femme fatale archetype.

As the details of the intertwined narrative involving Julia and Spike are unveiled, the very magic sustaining their story falters, a consequence of the insignificance attributed to their shared experiences. Alas, even the poignant phrase "Goodnight Julia" dissipates into the void of space.

Consequently, we are confronted with an outcome wherein no praiseworthy replacement is discerned to supplant that which has been forsaken-an unfortunate instance wherein the session in question egregiously transgresses numerous artistic and narrative boundaries. The very essence of memories, originally ethereal and evocative, becomes transmuted into tangible objects. Thus, we are confronted with what may be aptly described as a purported love story, one which, regrettably, remains elusive and evasive in our grasp.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Babel (1993)
Season 1, Episode 5

This is an Underrated Star Trek episode. If I watched it in another time period, I would not understand its value. However, there is currently a worldwide pandemic. In a way befitting a science fiction; It has shown very well what will happen in a pandemic. The process is lifelike, just faster. With the importance of the situation, the tempo in the episode was successful. With real life experience, I was very excited while watching the episode. An important detail was the unexpected spread of the virus. As a result, Star Trek is always one step ahead.

This film is my Black Panther. This movie empowered me. It helped me get over my rejection from the female known as Veronica who'd rather date a Chad instead of a true gentelmen who would treat her well. Amazing cinematography and a great performance from Joaquin Phoenix, who was fortunately moved on from artsy-fartsy hipster trash like Her. Films like the Joker are true art that often get misunderstood by filthy normies who watch MCU kiddie movies instead of challenging, thought-provoking kino like Batman V Superman Dawn of Justice.
