...so I watched the introduction-to-G5 'My Little Pony' movie. It's just okay. It has entertaining moments, and they kind of do a twisty thing at the end for increased interest, but it didn't really grab me. It isn't for old-school bronies like me and Riv.

[CaptHayfever]

101) The Little Drummer Boy - C. Not gonna lie, going to live in the wilderness with just animal friends who like my drumming sounds pretty tempting lately.
102) The Small One - B+
103) Home Alone - B+

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

I watched a few over the last month. "Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters", I don't even really like Tetris, so I don't know why I watched this, but I was predictably rather bored

"Am I Racist?", 2 hours of grating sarcasm in a middling follow-up to the excellent "What Is A Woman?".

"Isekai Quarter The Movie: Another World". A series that works with 10 minute episodes overstays its welcome as a full length film, but it's still fun to see characters you like doing non-canon stuff, I guess, which is all the series is an excuse for in the first place. Crossover stuff is fun but usually lacking substance, this is no different.

[CaptHayfever]

104) Home for the Holidays - A-
105) That Christmas - C+. The beginning is INCREDIBLY grating.
106) Red One - C+. Much more coherent than people made it out to be.
107) Arthur Christmas - A-
108) Wicked: Part 1 - A. Magnificent film on its own, & magnificent adaptation as well.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

[Booyakasha]

'Year Without a Santa Claus' was on earlier. I love that flick------------it's good goofy fun.

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

^ I don't remember that one, I always saw Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman playing on TV most often. Sounds like fun.

We saw a bit of Die Hard, but it was just kinda in the background. Always feels weird calling it a Christmas movie but I guess it counts. Merry Christmas to you guys, btw.

[Walterboykin]

Polar express is a very good one, loved it a lot.

[CaptHayfever]

109) Meet Me in St. Louis - A-
110) It's a Wonderful Life - A
111) Moana - A-
112) Finding You - B-
113) Ghost - B. Started dull, picked up a lot after he dies.

Finished at 11:51pm last night.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

Ghost is really good, it's interesting how it has a little bit of everything. Comedy, action, romance, horror. Heck, it's got like an almost sorta kung fu-ish bit where he trains with the other ghost to develop his ghostly powers.

[Booyakasha]

...I think 'Ghost' sucks. I realize I'm in the minority‐------‐--hey, I wish 'Ghost' didn't suck.

Fair. It isn't the best movie but it does some interesting things imo.

It was the start of 2024, and I was determined to make this year unforgettable. What better way to begin than with a bucket list of 100 must-watch movies? I grabbed my laptop and snacks and went to my favorite movie site.
The site was like a treasure chest of endless entertainment, from the latest action hits to nostalgic classics I hadn’t seen in years. With just a few clicks, I was immersed in epic adventures, gripping mysteries, and heartfelt dramas, all from the comfort of my couch.
As the days passed, I found myself eagerly ticking off movie after movie, discovering new favorites. Thanks to [spam link because AS has been hacked], my 2024 movie marathon became a tradition I couldn’t wait to continue. If you’re ready to dive into the ultimate movie experience, this is the place to start!

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

Are we all gonna become zombie AI bots eventually?

[Booyakasha]

I hate it. I'm too stupid to just remember that some assclown bot or scammer has spoofed AS' account, so I get all excited for a few seconds every time, like a dumber-than-average dog who jumps up and runs to the door every time he hears his owner say "walk" in any context.

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

Me too lol. I remember there was a spinoff site some users made a while back, but I never got around to signing up. Is that still around? If AS is still there it'd be good to tell him.

[Booyakasha]

I don't remember the other site's address. It didn't last--------------one day about six months in it just disappeared.

[CaptHayfever]

^^He wasn't there. One of the posse is still in touch with him, though, so he's been informed.

^The server costs were too high when it was only seeing a tiny fraction of the activity of [another venue]. It went way longer than 6 months, though, more like 2 years.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

[Booyakasha]

Hmmmm. Well, at any rate. Glad he knows about it. We can only imagine the rad comic he'd draw about him and his evil robo-clone-duplicate duelling with lirpas on top of an exploding zeppelin...

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

Oh, I see. Well, it's good he knows then. And 2 years ain't a bad run, all things considered.
