Bleach (re-read)

I finished a re-read of Soul Society and Arrancar a couple of years ago and picked up where I left off with Fullbringer to the end of TYBW.

Bleach will always be near and dear to me for its characters and its strong sense of style. An aughts-defining manga.

Seven Samurai

I feel like at least for me this movie was hard to watch on a first viewing. I wasn’t sure why the movie was spending so long on some things, and that made for an unsatisfying watch, but it makes sense by the end. I think I’d like it more on a rewatch.

Spider-Man 3 (rewatch)

A movie I’ve warmed up on over the years, its a good movie that was kept from being a masterpiece because of studio meddling. Its extremely hammy sometimes but Harry and Flint Marko are excellent characters in this movie.

Peacemaker S2

This is a show where when I look back at it and think about each individual episode, all of them were good, the problem is that by the time its over it doesn’t feel like it was all tied together very well. Had this burden that S1 didn’t have, having to do all this setup. Still solid.

Demon Slayer - The Hinokami Chronicles 2

An improvement on the first game in about every way, while covering the middle arcs of the series and doing key moments justice with presentation on par with the anime.

Demon Slayer (manga)

“I know what eternity is. Eternity is human feeling. Only human feelings last forever and are undying.”

10/10. A masterpiece.

Spider-Man 2 (2004)

One of the greatest superhero films ever made, maybe the best solo superhero film OAT. Extremely emotional and compelling. Peter‘s arc in this movie is so good, and Octavius is incredible. A film packed with memorable and iconic scenes from start to finish.

Masterpiece.

Spider-Man (2002)

Probably the most formative superhero film of my childhood. The Uncle Ben portion of the film is extremely good. Norman is very cartoony but Dafoe sells it with his performance.

Classic.

Creature Commandos

Solid animated show. There are a couple of episodes in the middle I really liked, one episode I didn’t like and the rest ranges from okay to interesting. It is very much an ‘appetizer’ as James Gunn put it.

Demon Slayer - The Hinokami Chronicles

Solid anime game covering the beginning of the series to the end of Mugen Train. They do the key moments of the series right with some beautiful in-game animation. The quieter moments are stiff but the sequel seems to have improved on this.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle – Part 1: Akaza Returns

Already believed Demon Slayer to be one of the greatest shounen anime of all-time, and this movie still has the story one-upping itself in its emotional peaks yet again

Masterpiece

The Flash

Wonder Woman 1984

This is a movie that exists. Very mid and ??? writing decisions.

Gal Gadot’s poor acting worked better in the first movie where Diana was a fish out of water, but she gives basically the same performance where she has acclimated and its bad.

Pedro Pascal was really good tho

Wonder Woman (rewatch)

This movie is alright. Important historically for female superheroes. Was interesting exploring the WW1 setting as well.
