My Review of "Wonder Woman 1984"
Wonder Woman 1984 was one of the big box office movies that was supposed to come out in theatres in 2020 but was delayed and eventually released via video on demand. There's a big controversy with its release because it marks a change in the direction of how Hollywood would release their titles during the pandemic.

My Review of "The Army of the Dead"
The Army of the Dead is Zack Snyder's most recent movie of 2021. It's also a Netflix exclusive movie. There's a lot of hype going on about this movie because of the production put into this movie and it shows. I did however have a few gripes about the movie that I'm not sure others. Sorry if I spoil anything for anyone but I'll try to keep spoils to a minimum.

Review of 'Flamefall'
Revolutionary flames ignite around Annie, Lee, and a brand new character in the follow-up to FIREBORNE. After fleeing the revolution and settling into the craggy cliffs of New Pythos, the dragonlords are eager to punish their usurpers and reclaim their city. Their first order of business was destroying the Callipolan food supply. Now they’re coming for the dragonriders. Annie is Callipolis’s new Firstrider, charged with leading the war against New Pythos. But with unrest at home, enforcing the government’s rationing program risks turning her into public enemy number one. Lee struggles to find his place after killing kin for a leader who betrayed him. He can support Annie and the other Guardians…or join the rebels who look to topple the new regime. Griff, a lowborn dragonrider who serves New Pythos, knows he has no future. And now that Julia Stormscourge is no longer there to protect him, he is called on to sacrifice everything for the lords that oppress his people—or to forge a new path with the Callipolan Firstrider seeking his help. With famine tearing Callipolis apart and the Pythians determined to take back what they lost, it will be up to Annie, Lee, and Griff to decide who—and what—to fight for.

Review of 'The First Sister'
Combining the social commentary of The Handmaid's Tale with the white-knuckled thrills of Red Rising, this epic space opera follows a comfort woman as she claims her agency, a soldier questioning his allegiances, and a non-binary hero out to save the solar system. First Sister has no name and no voice. As a priestess of the Sisterhood, she travels the stars alongside the soldiers of Earth and Mars--the same ones who own the rights to her body and soul. When her former captain abandons her, First Sister's hopes for freedom are dashed when she is forced to stay on her ship with no friends, no power, and a new captain--Saito Ren--whom she knows nothing about. She is commanded to spy on Captain Ren by the Sisterhood, but soon discovers that working for the war effort is so much harder to do when you're falling in love. Lito val Lucius climbed his way out of the slums to become an elite soldier of Venus, but was defeated in combat by none other than Saito Ren, resulting in the disappearance of his partner, Hiro. When Lito learns that Hiro is both alive and a traitor to the cause, he now has a shot at redemption: track down and kill his former partner. But when he discovers recordings that Hiro secretly made, Lito's own allegiances are put to the test. Ultimately, he must decide between following orders and following his heart. A stunning and sweeping debut novel that explores the power of technology, colonization, race, and gender, The First Sister is perfect for fans of James S.A. Corey, Chuck Wendig, and Margaret Atwood.

My Review of "Turbo"
Turbo is a Dreamworks animated feature that came out back in 2013. It's about a snail gaining super speed abilities. It's a very simple concept but it's also meant for the general audience because it's a family family film. For an animated feature from back in 2013, the visuals haven't aged badly. I was surprised at how much I was still able to enjoy this film.
