Harry Potter is my jam. I'm talking about Rowlings books here. The movies are fine to really good. But those books are glorious.

Those movies should be so good but they are disappointingly mediocre.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Celeste And Jesse Forever.

Well, finally a nice little movie about a long relationship coming to and end. It looks beautiful, it feels honest and the cast is actually doing good work.

Shit. Lol. This movie is about 80% training montage, 5% bad dialogue and 15% grunting.

Absolutely no character development whatsoever. So bad.
