The Weekend in Movies

This weekend I managed to watch some truly “excellent” movie choices, as well as venture back into the theaters. I only chose to wade back into that reality because I knew that (and was correct that) my local theater would have only 0-5 people in attendance. Regardless, I kept my mask on the whole time and made sure to steer clear of any other people. Overall, it was an unexpectedly fulfilling weekend with some truly bizarre films.

Packed Tight Movie Weekend

In less than 72 hours, I’ve managed to squeeze five movies into my life without feeling like I’ve neglected any other area of my life. That is quite a feat! I also managed to accomplish this after cleaning up a bunch of glass off of my kitchen floor (courtesy of my cats)! As in the past few of these, rather than bore you with the details, I give my quick-take and a general summary of the films’ events in the hopes of helping you make some choices in your viewing leisure.

Abandon Ship! Shows

You know, I watch a bunch of shows, and while 98% of them are satisfying (because I do some research), there are still just a few that fall through the cracks. It’s not necessarily that they are bad, but they just don’t hold my interest, which I’m sure is the case for many people. Maybe it’s because I have all this extra time not spent at the movie theater this year, but I’ve found a few shows that literally pained me to watch, so I just decided to…stop.

Minimal Movie Review

I am fully aware that the number of movies I watched this weekend is in fact still above average compared to almost everyone I know. But two movies is almost pathetic! At least by my standards, and especially since I watched 25 movies last month. Oh well, it’s a slow start but I don’t doubt I’ll have a strong finish (even if it is getting nicer out). Now, there were onlt two movies, but they were fairly strong choices!

Mega Movie Weekend

I guess I don’t mean “mega” as in blockbusters, I just mean I watched six movies in three days. That would be a mega achievement for almost anyone, myself included. I will say though, that most of these were pretty mediocre, but that’s just the way it is sometimes. I won’t bore you with the details, so here’s my fast-take below:

The Boys Review

I’m finally starting to use Amazon Prime Video to its full potential (in my opinion), so with that I’ve just finished the freshman season of the gritty graphic novel adaptation of The Boys. Aside from it being gritty, it is also vulgar, bloody, and violent. Three of my favorite things! This show is not for the flowery faint of heart folks. This show packs a punch in the most fun way!
