Wow. A lot of people watched Spiderman Far From Home this week. It was also the last movie I saw though I don't trust myself to rate it because I am very biased towards Tom Holland. He is the most adorable thing in the MCU and I stan stan stan and ultra stan him. I am currently watching Memories of the Sword, a Korean movie. It has two of my favourite actors in it. High expectations but I'm only 6 minutes in. I should be working! 8-)

Yesterday I saw Toy Story 4. I would rate it 4 out of 4 stars because the 3D animation graphics were outstanding as well as the story line. It managed a fantastic balance of comedy, nostalgia (from Toy Story 1 through 3), and thrill. I think it had a great ending, considering that it was the last of the Toy Story series by Pixar.

Rewatched hands of stone last night with Robert De Niro and have to say it was still as emotional as it was the first time. What gets me is when they are true stories and at the end of the movie they have an update of how the people lived their lives from then on and what happened.

Oh guys, we watched Missing Link the other day and it was really sweet and I enjoyed it. I give it 3 out of 5 stars. Have you seen it? What do you think about it?

The last movie I watched was Dragonball Super; Broly. I'm pretty sure anyways, I don't really watch too many movies, haha. I was pretty suprised at how much I liked it because I wasn't sure it could pass my nostalgia of the original Dragon Ball Z Broly movies.

I thought it was amazing! It was really entertaining and although I'm disappointed in the change of charcter for Bardock, I thought the entire thing was beautiful! Once the Broly v Z fighters start it only got better. Would reccomend so many times over, 5/5!

The last movie I saw, in theaters anyway, was Avengers: Endgame. I would give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars because of some of the rather unfortunate circumstances at the end of the movie that made both very sad and very angry.

The last movie i saw was avengers endgame. This movie had me sitting on the edge of my seat. I have never been through or felt so many different emotions before and all at once and at the same time. It made me fustrated, angry, sad, depressed, irritated, and happy. First of all the bad guy is still walking around undefeated trying and succeeding to bring the world to an end. All of the best super heroes and old and new such as captain marvel has yet to take out thanos. The world is in complete
and total chaos and desruction, the once gorgeous thor looks like someones fat uncle, and they killed off ironman and the black widow. The happy part being the finally kill thanos in the end!

The last movie I saw was Captive State, a movie about an alien apocalypse. I did not enjoy it as much as I thought I would. There were many aspects introduced that were not fully explained, and left many questions at the end of the movie. Because of this, and some mediocre acting, I would rate this movie a 3 out of 5.

Toy Story 4 is the last movie I saw. Out of 5, I'd give it a 4 point 5. The missing half point comes from the fact that it can't ever top Toy Story 3. But I can't help but really like this 4th installment (and I'm sort of relieved it wasn't affected by the sequel curse.)

I enjoyed it very much with its humour and bittersweet moments like the beginning and end. After so many Pixar movies (especially the ones after 2010), I sort of see their tendencies to put characters through situations that influence them to make a difficult decision that brings drastic change at the end. But this pattern doesn't make it a "formula" that turns the story predictable (unlike some superhero movies). Rather, I was constantly worrying over what the character would do.

Just a few days ago, I watched a video review of Toy Story 4, and one point has got me thinking 'Wow, this story is actually really deep!' In the movie, "voiceboxes" had played a huge part. I will try not to spoil anything else here. But "voiceboxes" might be more than just another feature of toys, but also plays a contrast with "inner voice". So even if a toy gives out its voicebox, it still retains its inner voice/ conscience. On the other hand, the voice that comes out of the voicebox- although is a literal inner voice- doesn't exactly play the same role.

I'm a bit sad that some people refused to watch Toy Story 4 because they were afraid it would ruin that perfect ending Toy story 3 gave us. I must admit I was- at one point- thinking Pixar might be making a mistake. But I was fortunately proven wrong!

I watched Guardians of The Galaxy Vol 2 last night and loved it. The characters of Gamora and Peter Quill are awesome. The cinematography of the movie was awesome too. Oh and Baby Groot was too cute!

To be honest, I don’t get out to see movies very often lately. The last movie I remember going to see was Solo: A Star Wars story. I enjoyed it so that counts, I guess lol. Hopefully I’ll get out to see a new movie soon!
