Media Name: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 9 Release Year: 2022 Creator:  Jessica Gao Production Company: Marvel Studios Original Network: Disney+ Finished Watching: 1st December 2022 My Rating: 3/10 Going into this show, I heard nothing but negativity about it and I would have to say that, the hate for this show is justified. The CGI on She-Hulk herself is really ugly and looks like a meme edit. Quite a lot of the dialogue and humour was cringeworthy, especially the twerking post-credits scene. Some of the episodes could be quite boring to watch as well. Jennifer Walters could also be quite annoying as well. The writing was sometimes bad as well. Basically the only redeeming qualities were that we got to see what happened to the Abomination 14 years after The Incredible Hulk left his fate ambiguous and a year after he had a brief appearance in Shang-Chi. I also liked the Daredevil episode and thought that the finale was decent. It also...

Media Name: Ms. Marvel Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 6 Release Year: 2022 Creators:  Bisha K. Ali Production Company: Marvel Studios Original Network: Disney+ Finished Watching: 27th November 2022 My Rating: 5/10 Going into this, I didn't really know what to expect since I've never seen Ms. Marvel in any other piece of media and I've never read her comics. I'd have to say that this show was mediocre. The pacing was way too slow which made the show drag. It felt like they forgot at times that they were making a superhero show because there was so little action occurring. It also felt like they set up too many villains to the point of where it got confusing as to who was meant to be the main villain. The final episode was really messy as well though I'd have to say that I enjoyed it more. There were some funny jokes however sprinkled throughout. Overall, while I wouldn't say this series was terrible, I also wouldn't say it was great either.

Media Name:  The Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special Media Type: TV Special Series: MCU Release Year: 2022 Special Director:  James Gunn Production Company:  Marvel Studios English Network:  Disney+ Runtime: 42 Minutes Finished Watching: 25th November 2022 My Rating: 8/10 Given how much I like the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, I was really excited for this special. I'd have to say that it delivered. I found it to be really funny with the plot of Drax and Mantis kidnapping Kevin Bacon especially being amusing. The acting was really great as well. The CGI was surprisingly great given how CGI in other phase 3 MCU content has looked. The writing was also really good and the special was sometimes emotional. The only bad thing was the rotoscoped 2D animation for the beginning and ending which should have just been live-action in my opinion. Overall, this was a great TV special and gives the MCU a sign of hope.

Media Name: Super Mario Bros. Media Type: Movie Release Year: 1993 Directors:  Rocky Morton,  Annabel Jankel Production Companies:  Hollywood Pictures,  Lightmotive,  Allied Filmmakers,  Cinergi Pictures Distributor: Buena Vista Pictures Distribution Runtime: 1 hour 44 minutes Finished Watching: 22nd November 2022 My Rating: 6/10 Whenever I hear anyone talk about the live-action Mario movie, people usually talk about how bad it was or that it's one of the worst films of all time. I'd have to say that people are overexaggerating. Is this a good adaptation? Absolutely not, there is barely anything accurate to the games. It this a good movie? eh, it's decent. I'd have to say that I enjoyed it. The acting was really good with Bob Hoskins doing an especially good job. Some of the writing was decent and I found some of the jokes to be funny. Some of the flaws, other than the obvious lack of accuracy, were that the CGI has aged quite poorly. Some of the character...

Media Name:  - Zen - Grogu and the Dust Bunnies Media Type: Short Film Release Year: 2022 Director:  Katsuya Kondo Production Companies: Studio Ghibli, Lucasfilm English Distributor: Disney+ Runtime: 3 minutes Finished Watching: 12th November 2022 My Rating: 8/10 I am a huge fan of both Star Wars and Studio Ghibli so when they teased that they were creating a piece of work collaborating with Lucasfilm, I was really excited. Even when they announced that it would only be a short film revolving around Grogu, I was still really excited. When it came to watching it. i'd have to say that I really enjoyed it. The animation was beautiful, and the story while basic, was enjoyable. The music was also really good. I'd have to say though that I was kinda disappointed that they didn't do something bigger for a Studio Ghibli Star Wars project though I still enjoyed it.

Media Name: Treehouse of Horror XXXIII Media Type: Episode Series: The Simpsons Release Year: 2022 Season Number: 34 Episode: 6  Episode Director:  Rob Oliver Production Company:  Gracie Films, 20th Television Animation, Dr. Movie English Network:  FOX Finished Watching: 31st October 2022 My Rating: 9.5/10 This has to be probably the most hyped that I have ever been for a Simpsons episode I've ever been and I would have to say, it delivered. I found it to be really funny with basically all of the jokes landing. The animation was great with the animation by DR. Movie in the Death Tome segment being absolutely fantastic. The Pookadook segment was probably one of the scariest Treehouse of Horror segments of all time. I loved all of the classic references in the Simpsons World segment. I also thought that the Bob's Burgers crossover was nice to see even if it was short. I loved the Death Tome segment the most though that may be because I love the Death Note anime. The ch...

Media Name: Werewolf By Night Media Type: TV Special Series: MCU Release Year: 2022 Special Director:  Michael Giacchino Production Company:  Marvel Studios English Network:  Disney+ Runtime: 53 Minutes Finished Watching: 26th October 2022 My Rating: 5/10 I'll be honest and say that this year in terms of the MCU has been disappointing to me but I was looking forward to this one. When I watched it, it was just ok. Maybe it's because I haven't seen any old monster movies that inspired it but I thought it was boring most of the time and not really that scary at all. Some of the scenes in the movie also reminded me a bit of Morbius (which I'd say is the second worst movie of this year). I thought that the fight scenes were good though and the CGI was better than most of the other things from the MCU that released this year. The black and white filter also added to the movie in my opinion. Overall, I was disappointed by this though I wouldn't say its one of the worst thi...

Media Name: Kiki's Delivery Service Media Type: Movie Release Year: 1989 Director: Hayao Miyazaki Production Company: Studio Ghibli English Distributors: Disney, Gkids Runtime: 1 hour 43 minutes Finished Watching: 21st September 2022 My Rating: 9.5/10 I've been a huge fan of Studio Ghibli and especially Hayao Miyazaki since I first watched their films in early 2020 and have been waiting to get each of them on Blu-Ray in order to re-watch them. This was one of the movies that I was the most looking forward to watching and I would have to say that it did not disappoint. The animation was fantastic as to be expected from Ghibli and the backgrounds were also beautiful. I really liked the nice slice of life tone of the movie as well. I loved each of the characters and felt they were really well-written. The music is absolutely fantastic and the main theme of the movie (A Town With An Ocean View) is one of my favourite songs from any Ghibli movie. The movie was also extremely fun to ...

Media Name: Cars 2 Media Type: Movie Release Year: 2011 Director:  John Lasseter Production Companies: Walt Disney Pictures, Pixar Animation Studios Distributor: Walt Disney Pictures Motion Pictures Runtime: 1 hour 46 minutes Finished Watching: 19th September 2022 My Rating: 5/10 Me and my friends decided to watch Cars 2 on a Discord call for a laugh since it's commonly considered to be the worst Cars movie. I cannot compare it to the other two since I can't really remember either of them but I can say that this was was ok. The animation as you'd expect from a Pixar movie was fantastic. The movie also started really strong with Finn McMissile's introduction scene being extremely well done. The soundtrack was also great with Finn's theme especially being really catchy. All of the action scenes in the movie were also really cool and exciting to watch. I'd have to say that the movie got progressively slower and less interesting as it went on up until the London rac...
