Rating: See how I rate things
Art: art, if available, like movie posters for movies, or the wikipedia image if it's a show
Title: self explanatory
Creators: not quite the 'creator', usually the director, writer, or anyone I feel is important in the creation of the work
Review: More words, may be as long or as short, depending on how im feeling lmao
Links: relevant links, ie wikipedia page if available.
Notes: for additional notes, if needed
Date: date of viewing (in longer series, like a tv, will be date when i most recently watched the thing

Add.: I'm debating on whether to add like, a score for the watching's IMDB/metacritic score for just, general comparison but i don't really trust either of them (least of all rottentomatoes) (also im lazy)

RATING ART TITLE CREATOR(S) REVIEW LINKS NOTES DATE
A Licorice Pizza Paul Thomas Anderson

Licorice Pizza - a very well made, brilliantly acted slice of life/romance/drama, infused with Americana of the '70s through-and-through

imo there's a concurrent thesis of how our environment of development shapes who we are but too hungover rn to say

add.: really conflicted about whether to give this A or B but imo, films like this are a rarity and like, i can't shake the feeling there's so, so much more to this movie than on the surface
like, my gut is screaming at me that there's a wellspring of meaning hidden in this movie

B My Little Pony: The Movie Hasbro?? all those who worked under them, at least

regrettably an extremely cut and dry childrens film, honestly a smidge above unremarkable at best. there could've been so much to tempest, and imo the plot could even fit into a usual twoparter like Season Beginnings/Finales or even just a normal episode

Gosh and so many folks missing; Discord (literal realityshaper who iirc has been willing to interfere before), queen chrysalis and thorax and their folks, glimmer and trixie, yaks, griffins, and the Starswirl Squad, dragons, or heck even sombra or Sunset (no im not biased) and the highschool AU

it works completely fine for what it's meant to be, i suppose; a moneymaker. sadly not much to say, nor particularly noteworthy overall
