While there is no original “Thoughts on” post for this anime, I figured I’d list this as “Updated” since this is my second time watching it. It should also be noted that I did not re-watch the whole thing, as I dropped this ten minutes into the seventh episode. A shame, but not all that unexpected.

It’s late and the head is throbbing. Gonna keep this fairly direct. Continue reading “Day Thirty: Holes (MotM 2020)”
Anyone well-versed in meme culture will know the significance of my choosing to watch this film. Well, re-watch, specifically; one can probably guess the reason I watched this several years ago, as well. Continue reading “Day Twenty-Eight: The Wicker Man (MotM 2020)”
This post will be fairly short, as explaining the formula employed by Pixar in basically all of their films is immensely tiring and overstated by this point. Continue reading “Day Twenty-Six: Ratatouille (MotM 2020)”
Ignorance is bliss. I have been cursed with the knowledge that a large majority of films are problematic in some capacity and now I cannot stop seeing it. Combined with my already far-left leanings, it’s become difficult to ascertain my feelings towards this film, which had made up a large portion of my childhood. Continue reading “Day Twenty-Four: The Sandlot (MotM 2020)”
This got two sequels. I find this fact pretty amusing. Continue reading “Day Twenty-Two: Night at the Museum (MotM 2020)”
If you were to tell me that I would be able to stomach more of Dinner For Schmucks than this a month ago, I’d probably look at you funny. Reality is often surprising. Continue reading “Day Sixteen: (A Chunk of) A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas (MotM 2020)”
If you were to ask me what my favorite band was a decade ago, I would reply, “The Foo Fighters” without hesitation. If you were to ask me what my favorite band is now, I would reply, “The Foo Fighters” with a little hesitation. In the past, I was comfortable with what I knew, and what I knew were bands like the Foo Fighters, Linkin Park, Rise Against, Queen; among others. It took time for me to look past the mainstream and peer into the little crevices that make up the musical medium, and since then I’ve realized that the Foo Fighters are… lacking in various departments. Even so, when I want to indulge in pure passion and adrenaline-filled loudness, they’re typically my band of choice, whether by reason of nostalgia or a genuine appreciation for their craft.

It’s been talked about a few times leading up to this post: that sort of essence of quality that I saw in my younger days. There was a reason I liked these movies at one point in time, if only for how easy it was to digest them. Generally, these re-watches have all been drastic positive-to-negative shifts, with my current self nowhere near as keen on the juvenile and occasionally offensive material these not-quite-current-age comedies provide. I expected much of the same with Fired Up!, and to my utter surprise, it wasn’t that terrible! Continue reading “Day Ten: Fired Up! (MotM 2020)”
Somehow, I have even less time than I did yesterday. As such, I’ll try and keep this as smooshed as possible. Continue reading “Day Eight: Hall Pass (MotM 2020)”
