Malcom in the Middle

 

I grew up with Malcom in the Middle. Legit, while it started when i was 12, it ended when i was 18. This show was a companion piece to my teens and i loved it. It ended great and the cast has gone on to retire or perform the greatest role in TV history. Brining it back? This is a show i wanted back. Was it needed? No. Were some moments forced? Sure. But this show was pure Malcom in the Middle through & through and i adored it. I loved seeing what became of these characters and now.....now i want more? Yes? No? Maybe? I don't know, but i will repeat the question! No, i proclaim now i want more! 

Film of 2025

 There are still a few 2025 titles i haven't seen yet such as Blue Moon, Gorge, Highest 2 Lowest, and but here are my top 15 films of the year. 

Superman

Weapons

Phoenician Scheme 

Sinners 

Mission Impossible 

One Battle After Another 

Freaky Tales 

Jimmy & Stiggs 

Companion

Silent Night Deadly Night 

Thunderbolts 

Novocain

Queens of the Dead 

Bugonia 

Lilo & Stitch  

Primate

 

I really dug most of Johannes Robers work, especially Resident Evil. Primate is his latest and i was interested in it, just never got around to seeing it in the cinema.  Kinda glad I watched it on a stormy day instead because......this was beyond dull. Animal attack films are far and few between these days and as much as I love ape films.....this missed the mark. Unlikeable characters, cringey dialogue,  a boring plot, I legit could not wait for it to end. 

The Simpsons

 

I knew the Simpsons had a shorter season, and i watched the finale 24 hours after it aired, but i still didn't realize it was over until about a month ago. This season was a step up from last year, still not as great as say 10 years ago but it was a solid season with lots of commentary and fan service. 

Match of March

Carmelo Hayes vs Ilja Dargunov 

Mario Galaxy

 The Super Mario Bros Movie was fantastic. It was fun, nostalgic,  had heart and a simple story. The sequel is just the same. While I prefer the first this one still makes you have that awe and wonder that usually isn't present with many modern blockbusters. Colorful and imaginative,  this is a perfect family film and a perfect video game film. Seeing this in a packed house full of kids and adults was perfect,  it's how Star Wars is and how MCU used to be. Bring on the third,  bring on a universe. 

Ready or Not Here I Come

 

Ready or Not is a favorite of mine of the 10s. I didn't want or need a sequel but I was still accepting of one, and the cast was lining up to be great.....and they nailed it. This is a fun sequel that while far fetched makes sense. Grace and Faith are fantastic final girls and the world building here rivals John Wick. It's bloody, funny and super fast paced.
