  • Project Hail Mary, 2026 - ★★★★★
    “Rocky hate Mark”Absolutely fantastic. Going to try to watch again in IMAX soon.
  • Anastasia, 1997 - ★★★★
    It’s impossible to divorce this movie from the time in my life when I first saw it, so I won’t even try. I quote Bartok nearly daily, even nearly 30 years later (that math makes me feel personally attacked). I think this is the first watch where I really looked at the voice cast, and […]
