Star Wars Rebels: Warhead (2017)
An early Ralph McQuarrie C3P0 drawing
Those isn't so much a review as immediately realizing the robot at the beginning of the episode looked a lot like one of Ralph McQuarrie's initial drawings of C3P0.
Toy Story 4 (2019)
Definitely worth every penny of seeing it at regular evening ticket cost
The only thing I will say is that Woody was missing an additional catchphrase (like There's a snake in my boot) and that was simply, "There's a tear in my beer."
Captain Marvel (2019)
Don't let the opinions of others deter you from this movie.
Was it a good movie? Yes. Would I see it again? Definitely. Did I find anything wrong with it? Nothing worth noting or wasting in this review. Finally, don't let the opinions of those that portray these characters or even those that are affected by said opinions deter you from seeing this or you'll really be doing yourself an injustice.
I guess my only curiosity is as was seen at the end of Infinity War, how did the main protagonist in this movie escape the finger snap? I mean she may have been part of the 50/50 that survived but why wasn't she contacted long before Thanos started his hunt for the infinity stones? I guess we'll have to wait until Endgame.
Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
An EXCELLENT movie if only... (***SPOILER ALERT***)
This was an excellent movie, from the visuals to the storyline to the emotions evoked. There is nothing about this movie that would keep me from seeing it again. That is except....
The end. After our protagonist, Alita, loses her sketchy boyfriend to the effects of gravity, we fast forward to her going to her last fight in Motorball to have the chance to go to the golden city in the sky to take on the main antagonist, Nova.
But no. It wouldn't be. Instead we get her ready to compete with her sword pointing at the golden city and.... cut to credits. That's right, ladies and gents, the credits. It's as if James Cameron, et al., decided they had run out of money and they were going to just end the movie. I guess they decided to let the viewers ASSUME Alita succeeded in her pursuit of Edward Norton, er, um, Nova.
How anticlimactic was it? Imagine watching Star Wars, Episode IV in 1977 just as the X-wings were blasting off from Yavin to confront the evil Galactic Empire to take down the menacing Death Star only to cut to credits? The series never would have gone past that point. It would have been an interesting space opera that child have been the so much more we have become so astutely aware of today. Very disappointing to say the least..
Again, let me reiterate, I absolutely loved the movie. But will I watch it again? If and only if there is a sequel that takes us to the city in the sky (yeah, I didn't quite thread the letters together to see the name) to take us to finish the first story and beyond. I guess I could just check out the story it's based upon.
Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)
Don't listen to these obvious Imperial scum...
I'm not going to give it a review. I just want to say this was a damn good movie. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to get off their derriere, raise the capital, and create a "masterpiece" for this space opera instead of being an armchair commando.
Did it have Harrison Ford? No. But it did get his seal of approval. That's right fly-boys and girls, the original scruffy nerf herder gave his approval to this Solo story. I just don't get why so many of you fail to as well.
