The Changeling (2023)
Alternate Perception of the 4th Dimension and then some....
It's amazing how divisive the commentary/ ratings are. This show is so FRESH, so freaking exciting, that I actually think it's a completely NEW THING, altogether! The only other movie that altered my perception of time in an even vaguely similar way was The Mirror by Tarkovsky. You'd be sadly mistaken to think you can kick back and even taste the flavor of this, much less consume (bleep actual digestion), without some serious mastication. This work is gonna take some work. All the low ratings are for people this was never made for in the first place. And thank God! Because it's the first thing that feels made JUST FOR ME, in a very very long time. I'm deeply grateful to all the artists involved and I can't wait to read the book and get to know the director more while I'm waiting for season 2.
Euphoria (2019)
Such a beautiful work they created!
I just suffered 3 seasons of DARK. It hurt me to my core to have wasted so much time on that show which was so highly rated and reviewed and seemingly loved by so many people yet I hated each and every character presented. I hated every twist and turn of the convoluted yet boring ass plot. And I am a sci-fi fanatic! All that to say I ended up re-watching Euphoria again and am amazed even more because of the dichotomy of loving and being invested in each and every one of these characters. It's simply shocking in it's perfection.... I relate to Rue but I can see everybody relating to somebody in this 1 season of precise storytelling and fulfilling character building through masterful acting and directing and yes cinematography and soundtracks. I'm so grateful for this show. I can't wait until my child is old enough to watch this, but hopefully after high school. Lol. Too much data for the uninitiated but validation for the commiserate.
Kudos to the cast and crew, excellent work! Thank you.
Altered Carbon (2018)
I root for all Black folks but....
I'm just going back, 3 years later to watch season 1, which is really amazing. Many concepts have stuck in my mind all of this time. Season 2 broke my heart though. I have some kind of problem with Anthony Mackie in that I have never not been annoyed at his performances. I'm looking forward for that to change! Season 2 was murder to watch.... very painful, but I got through it. In the end, it was almost okay.
Rhythm + Flow (2019)
The most exciting reality show in forever!!!
They were able to find so much talent! Londynn B was my favorite from the start with D Smoke right behind her. I can't wait to see the evolution of they're careers. I think this show is going to breathe new life into hip hop culture as a whole and it's very exciting to be a part of!
