Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
The first Hunger Games resurgence started when the first trailer for Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was released. The second is now as the movie has opened. The problem with both is it brings forth the people that have the media literacy of bread. So I will reiterate once again, nearly no art exists for entertainment. Most art has a message, ALL dystopian art is commentary and you are supposed to understand the themes it's spoon feeding to you. If you are the part of the fanbase asking for more games, you are the problem and you need to get that worked out with a licensed healthcare professional. That said, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was a wonderful and terrifying look at what power can do to people, the choices between right and wrong and what people will do to survive.

How Rick And Morty Made The Case for the Mid-Season Finale Gambit
Gambling can be fun sometimes, especially if done safely, kids - and clearly, Dan Harmon Co-Creator of the series and writers of this episode, Albro Lundyand and James Siciliano are betting men. Season 7 episode 5 “Unmortricken” is the episode where Rick, or the Rick we follow at least - a parasitical grandpa/deadbeat father/Jerry tormentor gets everything he asked for. It has everything: lore, backstory, intrigue, revenge, and a dash of ghoulish overkill. Mainly of the spare ‘thematic’ Ricks. It’s very big, it’s very clever, but is it it? If any season of any show needed to prove itself, it is this one - and usually this is done by a traditional season structure. But since when has Rick and Morty played by the rules?

My Review of "Loki: Season 2"
Loki: Season 2 was released in 2023 and everyone is raving over it. I admit that I liked the first season, however I'm not totally a fan of this season. Granted if you really loved season one you will love this second season. It goes deeper into the multiverse storyline that the first season started up. I'm unfortunately not clever enough to keep up with all the craziness from one episode to the next.

My Review of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"
Rise of the Planet of the Apes came out back in 2011. It was a bit of a shocker when this movie first came out. No one thought that the franchise had legs to keep going. The Tim Burton remake of the movie in 2001 that bombed pretty bad in the box office. I never saw the original movies. I didn't know what to make of this reboot.

My Review of "They Cloned Tyrone"
They Cloned Tyrone is a Netflix exclusive movie that came out in 2023. It's a pretty slick film that has a lot of style and personality. Though a lot of its plot actually remind me of a 2002 comedy called Undercover Brother. I only recognize this because I loved Undercover Brother. This is done in a more serious tone but the themes are there.

My Review of "65"
65 quietly came out in theatres in 2023. I don't think too many people knew about it because there wasn't a lot of publicity for it. I knew of it but didn't bother to watch it until I got the 4k Blu-ray copy of it. I figured why not enjoy it at the comfort of my own home. Besides I wanted to test out my system.
