I don't normally go to the cinema. For one, I just find it a bit overwhelming and two, I don't like being part of the hype that normally gives big-name movies an easy profit regardless of how good they actually are. I like to wait until it comes out on DVD and really make them work for their payoff. It's the reason I don't pre-order video games any more.
If I were to describe my thoughts on Hey Arnold the Jungle Movie in a single word, I believe the best term would simply be.....Satisfaction. I feel that perfectly articulates my thoughts and probably the thoughts of anyone who sees this movie. Even though anyone will also tell you the movie is flawed, at the end of the day, after 15 years of waiting, I can safely say that I feel content after watching this film.
In my opinion, Captain Marvel was... well... it was K. Ironic that Marvel is the weakest MCU Marvel film in a long time, but not excessively bad. It was just K. A solid 5.5/10, would (maybe) see with family again. Overall, anyway. Fun action, fun effects, fun Nick Fury, semi-tolerable story, neat twists, and FUCKING SKRULLS.
So. The My Little Pony Movie is in theatres.
Can we just take a minute to bask in that fact? Yes? Good, okay, moving on.
I have not seen it yet, unfortunately; I had been planning on going out tonight, but sudden thunderstorms and a lack of vehicular transport have made that, sadly, an impossibility.
What I have been keeping up with are the reviews. And hoo-boy, are there some humdingers in there.
And we're back.
I'm here violently savaging a film you don't really care much about for really no-one's pleasure but my own.
You see how annoying it is from my perspective now?!
I kid...
Anyway.
So we're about a quarter through Nicholas Nickleby 2001 and have gotten past the Dotheboys School Saga and I feel virtually nothing.
NOTE: Although I saw the film (and wrote its review) today, I wanted to do something era accurate as I always write my reviews. This film was theatrically released December 17, 2004 and I stylized my review to make it look like it was written on that day.

Yo, what's up, Kemosabes?
This is your friendly film, TV show, and episode reporter here with another review.
Today, for the 3rd installment of my "February Festivity", I'm gonna give you guys my take of "The Rocketeer".
Here's the rundown of this adventure:
Sorry I’ve been so absent for a while.
This and that kept getting in the way (Those two are never satisfied)
And it’s a good time for a bit of binge-watching even if it’s not too pleasant. I’ll have to make time to watch the 2002 version later.
Okay, so...I’ve gone over it a couple of times and I was wondering if I should include a few good points.
I’ve already explained that the casting is misplaced and underutilised so I can’t include that.
It's about time I came back to this.
Sorry, things get a bit hectic with one thing or another. I shouldn’t have to tell anyone that but I don’t even have a social life even without lockdown so I don’t have an excuse.
Okay, I think it’s finally time to put this thing to bed (Preferably one in the Oliver Twist workhouse!).
