The Non-Fan's Guide to Godzilla Films
The legacy of the first American Godzilla film is that it showed that yes, CGI can help make a film where Godzilla does more. But it also showed that people wanted to see the real, classic Godzilla, updated for modern times. Thus was born the third period of Godzilla films, which really was a culmination of everything that made the previous two series great: Better effects, ongoing plot and character development, and human characters who weren't annoying throw-away characters you just wanted to fast-forward through.

The Non-Fan's Guide to Godzilla Films
By the 1980s, the Godzilla films had been seen in theatres all over the world, and more importantly, had been seen in television reruns constantly for more than a generation. Some films were good, some were goofy, but they had a lot of fans of all ages. Godzilla had become an icon for Japan. And so, the world's favorite giant monster was brought back, with better plots, better effects, and upgrades across the board.

Wicked: Part One (2024) - Film Review
I first discovered Wicked when I unintentionally picked up a copy of Gregory Maguire's book at the age of fifteen. The dark and bleak perspective on Oz was both striking and surprising, but it didn’t deter me from eagerly reading the rest of the *Wicked Years* saga to find out what happened next. A year later, I saw the stage show in London’s West End, featuring Nikki Davis-Jones as Elphaba, Louise Dearman as Glinda, and Busted’s Matt Willis as Fiyero. I was absolutely enthralled by the musical adaptation. While it was toned down compared to the book, it had a strong script and songs that remain iconic to this day.

The Brutalist Movie Review
The epic period drama receives far less attention than it did decades ago. In a landscape dominated by blockbusters with mass-appeal, The Brutalist is incredibly bold with a huge runtime and content aimed at adults. Brady Corbet’s latest film delivers a powerhouse production that deserves many accolades.
