Anyone But You Review

My Review of Anyone But You.

So I saw Aynone But You yesterday and heres my reivew of it...I had a fun time with this movie. I was laughing so hard and so was my girlfriend. It was a such funny movie and a good romantic comedy. The cast of the film all did a great job and Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell there were so good together. I was laughing so hard watching and this movie was so much fun and it's a good love story. I highly recommend this movie and you will stay during the credits because everyone in the theatre was singing the end song. 

I give this film a 7 out of 10.

Godzilla Minus One Review

 

My Godzilla Minus One Review

Heres my full review of Godzila Minus One and I loved this film. This was amazing film and a great Godzilla film in general. The film had great characters, great storytelling, and for a movie that was made from 15 million budget. The film is about a former kaikaze pilot named Koichi he  abandon his duty after an attack of Godzilla and was shamed for the deaths of his fellow soldiers. He meets a woman named Noriko and a baby she rescued. He decides to help them and basically starts a family with them but Godzilla returns and Godzilla is bent on destroying all of Japan. 

This is another take where Godzilla is the villain of the film instead of the hero.

The film is about redemption and fighting to live another day. I love this film is set after world war 2 and it's about the Japanese picking up the pieces from the war and the film has such great characters that you grow to care for and have connection with. You feel for them and want them to successed in defeating Godzilla. The film had intense moments and sad moments but also had good moments like the ending made me shed tears. I have never cried seeing Godzilla film but it's because you feel a connection with the characters of the film. The special effects were incredible too. 

To me this was the best film of 2023 and I give a 9.5 out of 10.

The Iron Claw Review

 

My Review of The Iron Claw.

So, I saw The Iron Claw, and here's my review. I loved it. This was one of the best movies I've seen, and I get why everyone wanted this film to get an Oscar nomination. The film is about the Von Erich family, who are professor wrestlers, but this family believes they have a curse. I won't give anything away, even though it is based on a true story. In the film, I cared a great deal about the characters; I felt for them, and you feel bad for them but not the dad. This was one of Zac Efron's best performances; he was fantastic playing Kevin Von Erich; everyone in the film did a great job, like Lilly James, Jeremy Allen White, Harris Dickinson, Holy McCallany, and Maura Tierney, the cast all did a great job. The wrestling scenes in the movie were really cool, but wow, some of the moves looked painful. If you're a wrestling fan, you will love this film. The movie still had some sad moments that got to me. The ending was emotional, but it shows that we must be there for our family and help them when they need it. This film was excellent and worth watching. Von Erich's family has gone through so much tragedy, and only one son is still alive, but he's living his best life with his wife, kids, grandkids, and nieces. 

Zac Efron deserved a nomination for his performance. 
This was a great film I highly recommend and I give a 9 out of 10.

Top Six Best Edna Krapbappel Episodes

 

My Top Six Best Edna Krapbappel Episodes

It's another top Simpsons Character Episode this time on Edna Krapbappel whose character is sadly no longer with us.
Marcia Wallace died elven years ago and we still miss her and her character.
It's sad too because the character of Edna finally found love with Ned Flanders and he had a new wife but sadly it didn't last.
So I'm going to do a top six best Edna Krapbappel Episodes.
So here are my top Six best Edna episodes.

6. Special Edna 

In this episode, Edna feels neglected by Skinner because he always cares for his mother. However, Bart decides to go out with Edna for a pity date, and Bart nominates Edna for Best Teacher of the Year. Edna gets nominated because she's dealt with Bart. Still, Skinner feels guilty for not being there for Edna because of his mother. This episode has the Simpsons going to a parody of Epcot. At the end of the episode, they go to Disneyworld. The Simpsons predicted the buyout. This episode was excellent, and it showed how much Skinner cared for Edna, but sadly, it didn't work out. Edna ended up with Flanders, but don't worry about Skinner. He would get someone new in his life. 

5. Ned 'N Edna's Blend Agenda 
In this episode, after the vote for Nedenda, Ned and Edna get married. The two secretly got married, and no one knew about it, which was funny. In this episode, Ned sees Edna take control of the boys and encourages them to do more things. She takes them out of their Christian school. We see Ned is unhappy about this, but he realizes he and Edna aren't going to have everything in common, unlike his relationship with Maude. This episode shows Ned growing and accepting some changes in his new marriage. 


4. The Ned-Liest  
In this episode, Edna finally hits Bart, but she ends up being saved by Ned Flanders after she falls off a window, and the two of them start to date. However, Ned finds out that Edna has been with multiple men in the past, and it upsets him she's not a virgin. Now, Ned is wrong here. He shouldn't judge her for that because, hey, come on, your girlfriend or boyfriend has been with other people before they met you. You need to accept it and not make it a big deal. I love how this episode ends with the fans voting on whether Ned and Edna should stay together or not. Everyone voted yes, but sadly, we all know two years later, their marriage would end with Edna's death. 

3. Bart Gets an F.
I ranked this episode on my top best episodes, and to me, it's not just the best Simpsons or Bart episode. It's also a great Edna episode because of the moment when Bart breaks down and cries. We see Edna become very supportive of Bart, and despite her frustrations towards him, she cares about his grades and him. She always believed in him and knew he was a good kid. Ultimately, Bart passes and kisses his teacher and is grossed out.

2. Bart the Lover
Now, in this episode, Bart pulls a prank on Edna that she has a secret admirer, but it's just Bart pulling a prank on her. However, after Bart sees Edna at the restaurant all alone and sad that her date never showed up. Bart feels guilty about his act, and his family helps him write a letter to Edna. It is a good episode, and in the end, Bart happily goes to detention with Edna outside. This a good episode, and it makes me feel good knowing that Edna will find love in the future. 

and the number one best Edna Krapbappel Episode is....


1. Diary Queen 
This is the best Edna Episode because despite the character now being dead. This episode was a great send-off for the character, and it made a lot of fans, and even I shed a tear. One of my closest friends said she couldn't watch this episode because it would make her cry; she loved Edna. The episode doesn't reveal how Edna died because the writers and producers decided not to reveal how she died because they wanted to leave it up to the fans on how she died. (I misread the information the writers and producers didn't have any idea to reveal Edna's death. I'm very sorry about to my viewers made a small mistake won't happen again. Maybe they did have an idea we don't know.) 
That actually is a better idea. Just leave it up to the fans to decide how Edna died. Hell, some fans properly go with the idea that Homer accidentally killed her, as mentioned in Holidays of Future's Past. 
In the episode, Bart finds Edna's diary and thinks she was writing about him, inspiring him to be a better student. However, it was about her cat, which upsets Bart. Ned shows Bart a video recording of the Flanders considering leaving Springfield but doesn't because Edna reveals she couldn't leave Springfield. She wanted to continue to help Bart because he was a misunderstood boy who just needed someone to show the good in them. That's the type of teacher we should all have, and if you're wondering, they used pre-recorded lines from The Seemingly Never Ending Story. 
Even though we all know Bart lied to Edna about having detention all summer. 
This inspires Bart to know that Edna always cared for and loved him like he was her own. At the end of the episode, Ned reads her diary, and he learns that she wrote being with Ned was a dream come true. The ending tribute with the song Diary from Bread fits the ending, and it's emotional to watch. It shows that we felt a connection with and cared for the characters we love and care for despite not being real.

So that's my top 6 best Edna Krapbappel episodes let me know what you think and leave a comment.

Chicken Run Dawn of the Nugget Review

 

Chicken Run Dawn of the Nugget Review.

So I saw Chicken Run Dawn of the Nugget last night, and here's my review of it...I love it. It was an excellent 23-year-old sequel to the 2000 film. I love Chicken Run. It's one of my favorite Aardman films, and I was skeptical of them making a sequel because some classics don't need sequels. However, to my surprise, this was a good film. I had a fun time with Chicken Run Dawn of the Nugget. The story is set years later, with the chickens now living on an island. It is about Rocky and Ginger's daughter, Molly, who wants to leave the island and see the world. She learns about these chickens going to this farm, which is actually a slaughterhouse where they turn chickens into nuggets. Explains Dawn of the Nuggets. The film had good animation, and the characters are just as they were in the first film. However, this time, Ginger and Rocky are now voiced by Thandie Newton and Zachary Levi, replacing Julie Sawlha and Mel Gibson. It was a shame, but we all know why they didn't bring back Mel Gibson. Overall, I still enjoyed this film, and I had a fun time. I was on the edge of my seat watching it. This is a fun movie to watch, and it does make you not want to eat chickens anymore. I give this film an 8 out of 10. Go watch it. It's a fun family movie for everyone.

My Top 9 Mr. Burns Episodes.

My Top 9 Mr. Burns episodes.

 After doing Moe and Flanders, here are my top six Mr. Burns episodes. Mr. Burns is another fan favourite, and he's been the Simpsons villain or friend. It's hard to believe Harry Shearer is 80 years old now.  

So here are my top 9, Mr. Burns episodes and they are...


9. A Hunka Hunka Burns in Love
In this episode, Mr. Burns gets a fortune cookie and learns he will meet true love. He tries to meet every lady, but it doesn't go well. I find it funny when he goes into a strip club and says, "Great heavens! It's one of those nude female fire stations!" that was laughing, especially with Mr. Smithers freaking out with ladies giving him a lap dance. Mr. Burns meets Gloria, and the two hit it off. Despite him being old, she sees how much he loves her. Mr. Burns proposes to her, and she accepts, but her ex, Snake, comes to the bowling area and kidnaps her and Homer. The episode ends with Mr. Burns saving her, but she saves him after he breaks into the house. However, Gloria wants to return with Snake because it is dangerous. This episode was funny, and it's funny seeing Homer help Mr. Burns. Also, in the scene where Homer and Marge are in bed, she says, "Hope the kids didn't hear us." 




8. The Old Man and The Lisa
In this episode, Mr. Burns loses his Nuclear Power Plant, and he asks Lisa to help him, but she doesn't want to since he rude her recycling plan. However, Mr. Burns wants to do better, and she helps him. At first, it looks like he's helping the environment, but he builds a big fish net that drags sea animals out of the sea and makes them into cans of slurry. Lisa realizes that when Burns tries to be good, he's even more evil. The episode was funny, but you do feel bad for Lisa. She didn't want sea animals to get killed to better the environment. The episodes show Burns getting his plant back, and he offers to pay Lisa, and she decides to rip the check, which was 12 million dollars. Homer has a heart attack and has a bigger one when he learns it's actually 12 million. I can't blame Homer. I would have reacted the same way, knowing she had rejected 12 million dollars. You could have used that money to help the sea wildlife. 


7. Fraudcast News 
In this other Mr. Burns vs Lisa Simpsons episode. Lisa decides to run her own newspaper business. At the same time, Mr. Burns buys out all media outlets in town because everyone cared more for a Rock Face Mountain, called Geezer Rock, than him. He tells everyone he's great, but Lisa stands up to Burns and will continue to sell newspapers free from the Burns Media. This episode was funny, and one scene became a meme with Mr. Burns losing against one small ant. This was a great Mr. Burns Episode. I love how it ends with Mr. Burns going shopping. Who doesn't love going to the mall? Except for the holidays. 


6. Burns Baby Burns
This classic episode features the late Rodney Dangerfield, who plays Mr. Burns's son, Larry Burns. This episode has Mr. Burns getting to know his son, who is nothing like him. Larry's lazy and stupid but friendly and funny. He becomes best friends with Homer as they are both lazy as well. Larry has a wife and kids he forgot about by the end of the episode. This episode had me laughing, especially when they showed a simulation of Homer getting killed. I just remember Marge and the kids screaming in horror, but it's just how it would go down if he tried to fight back, lol. This episode was fun to watch, and the late Rodney Dangerfield was funny. It's too bad we haven't seen Larry return, but I guess after Rodney died, the creators of the show retired the character of Larry Burns. 



5. Burns Heir 
In this episode, Burns almost dies and decides he needs an heir to his wealth and power planet. He chooses Bart as his heir, and Bart grows to like Burns, but deep down, he still misses his family. One funny scene is at the end, when Bart fires Mr. Burns, and he tricks Burns into standing at the trap door. Burns falls through, and Smithers jumps after him. I also found it funny when Mr. Burns had secret cameras across Springfield, and we learned Homer eats flowers. This episode was really funny and well-written. 



4. Last Exit to Springfield 
In this episode, the power plant workers go on strike because they want better pay and dental plans. This episode was funny, and I loved Lisa's song They Have Plant, But We Have the Power. Catchy song. Homer becomes the leader of the union, and Mr. Burns thinks Homer is a worthy foe, but Homer isn't. Eventually, Mr. Burns shuts down all power in Springfield and does a Grinch face as he hears their singing. I find it funny that Mr. Smithers is still by Burns despite the unpaid employees, but you know Smithers, he's in love with Mr. Burns. 



3. Mountain of Madness 
In this episode, Homer and Burns get trapped in a cabin in the mountains, and it's a really funny episode because the two of them think the other is trying to kill them. This episode was funny because Mr. Burns does practice fire trial tests, and everyone, instead of evaluating, goes crazy and attacks each other. So Mr. Burns takes everyone up to the mountains to learn about teamwork. It's funny how Homer and Mr. Burns survive together and in the end they both make it out alive. Lenny is the one who gets fired because the last one at the cabin gets fired. 


2. Rosebud 
This was another great episode of Mr. Burns. Despite being the richest man in Springfield, he misses his teddy bear, Bobo. In the episode, it's Burns's birthday, and I found it so funny when Homer does his stand-up. It's so funny not because of the jokes but because he moods Mr. Burns. Bobo ends up in the Simpsons' house, and Homer wants to give Mr. Burns the teddy bear in exchange for money and two Hawaiian houses. Mr. Burns eventually agrees, but Maggie grows to love Bobo and Homer. We see him become a great dad. He's there for his daughter and ends the deal. He can't bring himself to hurt Maggie. in this episode, when we see Maggie sad, we just want to hug her. At the end of the episode, Burns gives up and lets Maggie keep Bobo but tells her not to abandon his teddy bear like he did. Maggies gives Bobo to Mr. Burns because she sees how much he loves the teddy bear like her. It's a good episode, and like the Simpsons characters say in the end, it's ending, and that's it. Because they didn't get anything in return from the richest man in Springfield. 

And my favorite Mr. Burns episode...



1. Who Shot Mr. Burns Part 1 and 2.
This is my favorite Mr. Burns episode because it was a big two-partner episode back in the 90s. All over the country, everyone was talking about who shot Mr. Burns, and there was an event contest. I heard only one person believed it was Maggie, and that person was right in the end. Although years later, everyone would have theories that it wasn't actually Maggie, and there was also the alternate ending where Mr. Smithers shot Mr. Burns. In the episode, Mr. Burns steals Oil from Springfield Elementary; he costs a lot of jobs like Moe, Willie, and Tito Puente and makes many people angry for his crimes. However, the funniest one is that Homer hates Mr. Burns because he never remembers his name, which drives him nuts because he's been working there for ten years. 
One of his worst crimes was blocking out the sun, and when he did, you could feel the citizens of Springfield in anger, fear, and shock. Even Mr. Smithers doesn't like what Burns is doing, and he's in love with him, but in the end, he can't support him anymore, and he fires him. 
The whole town has a meeting, and they want to get rid of Burns, but they can't. However, Mr. Burns gets shot and falls into the sun, and this leads to everyone being a suspect. It was an epic cliffhanger because everyone was suspect and had a reason to kill Burns. 
In part two, they destroy Burn's sunblocker and Shelbyville, which is fair because they stole the lemon tree. At the end of Part 2, we learn who shot Mr. Burns: Maggie Simpson. We see it was an accident, but some say Maggie actually shot him on purpose, and in part 1, she's mad, too, for the horrible things he's done despite the fact she's a baby. To me, this was the best Mr. Burns episode. 

So that's my top 9 Mr. Burns episodes let me know what you think? 
What are yours and are they excellent.

Leave The World Behind Review

 

My review of Leave The World Behind

So, I saw Leave the World Behind last night, and here's my review of it...The movie was interesting. I was so interested in what this movie was trying to tell because, let's face it, imagine if our satellites were hacked and we lost Wi-Fi, cell data, and much more. It is scary to many people because we rely so much on that stuff. The film dives into that, and we see how the world goes to hell. The film is about an average family, played by Ethan Hawke and Julies Roberts, going on vacation, and they get a surprise visit from the Airbnb owners, a father and daughter played by Mahershala Ali and Myha'la Herrold. The film has crazy moments, and some messed up moments. The characters do come off weird, and they are unlikeable at times. This film, as I wrote, was interesting, and it's worth checking out because the ending of the film is an open end. Overall, I liked this film because I wanted to know what would happen, and it was an interesting story about us losing the world satellites because, let's face it, we rely so much on phones and laptops that we would go crazy. 

I give it a 8 out of 10.
