Glass (2019)
Under appreciated movie
This movie surprisingly after all these years of seeing it still holds up very well. It builds upon both Unbreakable and Split, but allows to add enough to make it plausible these characters would cross each other. Is it a perfect movie? No, however each performance in this movie is earned. Ending although predictable is really the only flaw in this movie. I believe this movie has more rewatch ability than both Unbreakable and Split. That's not to say those both aren't great in their own respect, but would find myself watching this one more. Still feel that criticism this movie faced was unwarranted and unjustified. The movie deserved more recognition for how incredible the performances were in this movie. With the predictable ending that does warrant some criticism, however movies that are predictable can still hold true value. The value in this movie is performances and feel performances made this movie stand out to me.
Road House (2024)
Better than the original and it's not even close
People will always have love for original as it's one hell of a movie. However, the fight sequences were so much better and shot as they should be unlike the original. Not a perfect movie, but a movie that is pretty damn good for a remake. People will say the Swayze one is better because it's the original, but this plot was so much better. McGregor steals the spotlight and does a solid job as the bad guy. Without a doubt this will be watched on repeat for years to come. People will find stuff to complain about when it comes to any remake or sequel, but this movie holds up and even in some ways goes beyond what the original could accomplish. The original comes off as a corny B movie whereas this is a solid movie that holds up better. Don't listen to negative people as most of them hated the idea of a remake in first place and just came here to crap on a movie without actually giving it a chance. I loved the original, but this movie takes approach that makes it feel fresh and interesting.
Carl's Date (2023)
Disrespectful to the movie.
I get the idea of this. However, to me it comes off as disrespectful to the movie. Horribly unnecessary and just another reason why you shouldn't try to keep making more of something that had ended perfectly in the movie Up. You would think Disney would learn new material is where their strong suit is such as movies like Elemental, Coco, Moana. Going back to make more of something regardless if it's a short is just a waste of time. Ask any fan of the movie they will tell you that movie was wrapped up perfectly. Why try to revisit it? It's too bad Disney is focusing on remakes of their own animation movies along with making unnecessary shorts or series/film. It's too bad there is less original content in this day and age.
Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)
Show that doesn't understand the universe.
The show is straight up bad. Character and writing choices that leave me scratching my head not only dumb character choices on behalf of Kenobi, but timeline inconsistencies. Reva character is horribly written I don't place the blame of the character on the actress, but that writers make her do inconsistent choices that make no sense whatsoever. Mandalorian does the perfect blend of characters and story. You can clearly tell the writers for that show know exactly who the character is and know how to write others around it. I'm not only let down, but horribly infuriated by cheap and wasted this plot and characters have been in this show. I held out hope, however unless they have different writers or directors I will not be watching this horrible excuse for Star Wars content.
