Star Trek: Picard: Võx (2023)
Make it so!
Maybe I am too much of a fan to impartial, but this season is just blowing me away! Putting the old cast back together could be considered nothing more than a cash grab, but it doesn't feel that way at all. It genuinely feels like everyone is happy to be back. This has been a continuous reminder that THIS cast was the finest in the franchise, hands down.
The Easter eggs keep coming, and I won't spoil them. I would not want to deny anyone the shear thrill it felt to witness them first hand. There has been a great attention to detail this season, far more than in the previous two (and they were great!), but it's clear that no stone shall be left unturned as this cast of characters go out on their final voyage.
I never thought they would come close to the opus that was "All good things..." but we are coming damn close. Thank you for reminding me why I am such a loyal fan.
Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Meh
I will start by saying I was excited to see the true vision intended for this film. I turned off my phone and removed all distractions so I could immerse myself for the full ride. Unfortunately, I don't feel much different now than I did when I watched the original.
I won't give any spoilers because I can't be bothered to put a warning at the top of this. I will say that there were a few new additions that were pleasant to see. Then there were the ones that seemed slapped together and gratuitous, as if the the teacher said pencils down and it was mad dash to fill in a few more boxes.
I've been a fan of the source material my whole life, and Affleck is a good interpretation of a Frank Miller-esque Dark Knight. I'm not yet sold on Ezra Miller's Barry Allen, but if Michael Keaton is signed on for his Flash film, I will be in line to see it.
Full marks for the effort, I can imagine it was a thorn in Snyder's side he never saw HIS movie completed, but it just didn't do it for me. No worries, there's still 300, Watchmen and Sucker Punch.
