Constellation (2024)
Maybe you don't get it?
I'm seeing a lot of low reviews that read as if people are not picking up on the hints that are being given to us so far. They talk about the family drama being fillers and that the story isn't focused enough on space. I feel that the reasons for this will become apparent as the plot progresses and that all these scenes are foreshadowing.
This show is the first show in quite a while that has completely drawn me in. It is eery and captivating. This isn't some big space adventure, though there are. Some amazing action sequences in the beginning. I just think that a lot of people don't get what I am assuming this show is going to be actually about even though some of it is spelled out towards the end of the 3rd episode.
Armageddon (1998)
Masterpiece of fun popcorn movies!
Not a huge Bay fan but this is an exception. I'll stop and watch this anytime it is on tv. I've probably seen it once a year for the past 23 or 24 years. It is fun with a huge ensemble cast that look like they are having fun making the movie. It's unrealistic and dumb, but there are great set pieces and it is pretty funny. You can't but help to root for the drill team despite knowing how dumb the movie actually is. Overall, this is not the kind of movie that you leave and then have existential discussions with your friends about. This is the perfect movie to shut off your brain, remove yourself from reality and have a good time with!
Watchmen: A God Walks into Abar (2019)
Riveting
This is probably the best hour of television ever. I find myself not rewatching the series but instead watching this episode twice a year or so. It is do meticulous. You don't even need to remember what happened prior for it to have a majot impact.
The music, visuals, everything come together with perfect writing and clever dialogue. I don't think I've ever been as impressed with the playing with time as I was in how it was portrayed in this episode.
There were multiple moments where the piano kicked in and I got chills. The series is worth it for this episode alone.
I forsee myself rewatching this for years to come.
Prityazhenie (2017)
Fun and well made
I wasn't expecting much but this movie was great! It is neat to see common sci-fi tropes through the eyes of another culture. I was having a hard time finding something to watch and this was exactly what I was looking for.
