Review of 'The Black Witch'
Powerful magic. A deadly legacy. A world at the edge of war. Prepare to be spellbound by The Black Witch. Elloren Gardner is the spitting image of her grandmother, who drove back the enemy forces in the last Realm War. But while her people believe she will follow in her grandmother's footsteps and become the next Black Witch of prophecy, Elloren is devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above all else. When she is granted the opportunity to pursue her dream of becoming an apothecary, Elloren joins her brothers at Verpax University. But she soon realizes that the university may be the most treacherous place of all for the granddaughter of the Black Witch. As evil looms and the pressure to live up to her heritage builds, Elloren's best hope of survival may be among a secret band of rebels…if only she can find the courage to trust those she’s been taught to fear.

The Starling - A Netflix Movie Review
Some things are just out of our control - like this starling trying to attack me for example. The Starling flew onto Netflix in 2021. A couple suffers a difficult loss that separates them in their journeys of grief. Encountering a feisty bird that continuously attacks Lily in her garden, this time helps her rediscover herself again.

Erkenci Kus
I have been watching both old and recently released drama series and have fallen in love with a Turkish language drama series titled Erkenci Kus (Early Bird or Day Dreamer in English). I found out about it on social media (Thank you Instagram for bombarding me with Reels) and I haven’t been disappointed. I think the appeal stems from the fact that the male lead actor is a gorgeous hunk and my current crush (sorry Chris, Chris, and Rege😎😎)

Netflix's top show was once rejected.
You've seen the tweet. We've all seen the tweet: "Squid Game maker Hwang Dong-hyuk composed the show in 2009 however was dismissed by studios for quite a long time. He once needed to quit composing the content + offer his $675 PC because of cash battles. Today it's #1 in 90 nations + set to turn into the most-watched show in Netflix history."

Reviewing Marvel's Eternals
Five years ago, Thanos wiped out half the world's population. Then, with a snap of their fingers, people brought them all back. The sudden re-emergence of the missing population provided all the energy needed for the emergence to begin.

Endicott College's Mainstage Production 'Noises Off' is a Riot of Laughs
Places are in three! Do you have the sardines? Wait, what do you mean places or now? Bringing a barrel of laughs to the stage, Endicott College opens its mainstage production with Noises Off. A gangle of performers hopelessly try to put their show on its feet. With endless bouts of rumors and cheating between couples, by the end of the night, the show is a complete disaster.

My Review of "Eternals"
Eternals is the latest Marvel movie to come out in theatres. It's been held back for quite some time because of the pandemic but we're finally seeing the overall vision of what phase 4 is all about. This movie is quite a departure of the bubblegum Marvel movies we know and love. That may be a good thing and a bad thing. You don't have quite the usual superhero fare but I found that it was a refreshing look into the way superhero movies could be portrayed.
