Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023)
Not up to previous GOTG movies.
I'm not saying the movie wasn't good, but after it was over, it didn't leave me with the same excited feeling as previous movies in the series. And the soundtrack, yikes, it was so far worse matching songs to events in movie, I felt whomever created the soundtrack was getting a kick back on the songs they selected! Rocket's story was great and a little sad, but it made up for some of the other weaker parts of the movie. No real background on the High Evolutionary given, unless you're a die hard Marvel comics reader. Adam Warlock's character did come across as a little ditsy. All in all, not a bad movie, but would have expected more after waiting six years after "2" for the movie to show up.
Houdini and Doyle (2016)
Houidini
Watched the latest episode tonight. I like the show, but ever since the first or second episode, Houdini's part could have been played by anyone. Houdini was an escape artist and magician. We haven't seen any of these skills since the first couple of episodes. Why not? If you going to have Houdini as a character you have to show case what he was famous for. Now he seems like a poor mans Watson. Write more Houdini skills to bring us back for more. Doyle is very likable, some times sort of a wimp, but he is a writer not a fighter...The stories have been very creative with adding notable characters from the era the stories take place, i.e. Bram Stoker, Edison,etc. The show is entertaining, and I am a huge Sherlock Holmes fan, so this show has been fun to watch, but hoping they will do a little better and get Houdini doing Houdini thing.
