The Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker
Last night, I fought against my sleep, so that I could watch this eye opening documentary because it was a story I would not soon forget. I remembered how crazy Caleb "Kai" McGillvary's story was. I didn't personally love the documentary, but it could be that I was already tired when I watched it, so I might not have been in the right headspace for it. I would say, watch it yourself and form your own opinion. Try to watch it before Netflix takes it down because Kai is already complaining that they are exploiting him, and have not paid him for his life story adding to his already bizarre tale.

My Review of "Braveheart"
Braveheart is an epic adventure that was released back in 1995. Surprisingly this movie kind of stands the test of time. Being a period piece makes this a little easier to transition through different generations. Though you could not make a movie like this in today's social climate. This has a lot of real animals in the movie. It also doesn't have any CGI that I can see despite the fact that there are epic war action sequences.

In the placement of hands, Edward has sharp scissors. Living in solitary, one day that all changes when a woman introduces him to the world.

MCU Phase 4 Breakdown: The Desserts
Now that Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has hit theaters by storm, the MCU's Phase 4 has finally concluded. A phase that gave marvel fans more content than all three previous phases combined. Now that it's all said and done, I think it's a good time for us to go over all of the highlights that came out of the first phase of the Multiverse Saga. Don't get me wrong.., there has been plenty of key moments, plotlines, character reveals, etc. that the overall fandom would consider misfires. Not to mention things that the community would call downright ugly mistakes. However, for this article, we're only going to focus on what I would call: The Phase 4 Desserts. Meaning all of the good stuff to come out of the phase, the stuff that made us fans look forward to the future of the MCU. I'm going to have to give you guys a spoiler warning; since we're going over the entire phase you might want to go and watch it all before reading this article. While Phase 4 is highly regarded among fans to be extremely convoluted, there has still been plenty of gems within this phase as well, so let's get into it, shall we?

Review of 'The Cloisters'
“For fans of The Talented Mr. Ripley and The Secret History…The perfect mystery for fall.” —Jenna Bush Hager, Today In this “sinister, jaw-dropping” (Sarah Penner, author of The Lost Apothecary) debut novel, a circle of researchers uncover a mysterious deck of tarot cards and shocking secrets in New York’s famed Met Cloisters. When Ann Stilwell arrives in New York City, she expects to spend her summer working as a curatorial associate at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Instead, she finds herself assigned to The Cloisters, a gothic museum and garden renowned for its medieval art collection and its group of enigmatic researchers studying the history of divination. Desperate to escape her painful past, Ann is happy to indulge the researchers’ more outlandish theories about the history of fortune telling. But what begins as academic curiosity quickly turns into obsession when Ann discovers a hidden 15th-century deck of tarot cards that might hold the key to predicting the future. When the dangerous game of power, seduction, and ambition at The Cloisters turns deadly, Ann becomes locked in a race for answers as the line between the arcane and the modern blurs. A haunting and magical blend of genres, The Cloisters is a gripping debut that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
