My Review of "Major League"
Major League is a baseball movie that came out back in 1989. It's a movie that I used to love back when I was a kid and I wanted to see if it would still hold up today. Watching it today I realize there are a whole slew of things that people will frown upon today. Some of those things were a product of the time and some things they should have seen back in the day.

Review of 'All of Our Demise'
For the first time in this ancient, bloodstained story, the tournament is breaking. The boundaries between the city of Ilvernath and the arena have fallen. Reporters swarm the historic battlegrounds. A dead boy now lives again. And a new champion has entered the fray, one who seeks to break the curse for good... no matter how many lives are sacrificed in the process. As the curse teeters closer and closer to collapse, the surviving champions each face a choice: dismantle the tournament piece by piece, or fight to the death as this story was always intended. Long-held alliances will be severed. Hearts will break. Lives will end. Because a tale as wicked as this one was never destined for happily ever after.

My Review of: "House of the Dragon: Season 1"
House of the Dragon: Season 1 has just finished up in 2022. It was for me one of the hotly anticipated TV shows for 2022. I know a lot of people had their reservations considering the final season of the original Game of Thrones series. Fortunately for me I'm an ignorant person and will just hype myself for anything that looks pretty cool.

The Lean-in Feminism of 'She-Hulk: Attorney At Law'
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law was meant to be a meta-textual, feminist deconstruction of the MCU, and in some ways, it succeeds with this goal. Whether it's referencing Roxane Gay's Bad Feminist or jokes about women in the workplace, there are plenty of progressive nuggets for viewers to mine.

Parental Relationships in House of the Dragon
One of the most intriguing aspects of both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon are the familial relationships. So I thought I would analyze and give commentary on each of those relationships. Now it is important to note that this is strictly based off of the HBO adaptation and has absolutely nothing to do with the book whatsoever.

Alicent and Rhaenyra's Friendship
House of the Dragon has kept audiences captivated for weeks, and though it deviates from the books fans seem to be enjoying the story. However one of the major changes made from the books was deliberate and opened up the story to more flaws than necessary. In the show they made the choice to age Alicent down so that she was the same age as Rhaenyra. They also attempted to establish that these two girls were best friends, as Alicent’s dad was hand to the king the transition seemed natural. But then the writers seemed to forget that they had established these two young women as having a close relationship. In fact they didn’t seem to put any thought into how female friendships work at all.
