#TheInvite #SethRogan #OliviaWilde #EdwardNorton #PenelopeCruz The Invite is one of those films that sneaks up on you because of how it presents itself upfront. On the surface the film comes off like a standard comedy fare regarding two couples engaging with each other over dinner. But over the course of the film, it slowly starts being about the state of both couples relationships especially the marriage between Rogan and Wilde's characters. The movie goes about it in a very real way thats funny, insightful, and engaging. Definitely a solid watch overall.

#KenjiOhba #BattleFeverJ #Denziman #SpaceSheriffGavan #SuperSentai #MetalHero Kenji Ohba had a lasting legacy in the tokusatsu world and he will be sorely missed. A man who pioneered the Metal Hero franchise and kicked it off with Space Sheriff Gavan.. Who cemented himself in the Super Sentai genre in Battle Fever J and Denziman and was a very dedicated stunt performer that established a high energy style that we still see to this day. Even outside of the tokusatsu world, he made an impact as a performer being in various films especially in the Kill Bill Franchise. So sit back as CJ and Prime talk about Kenji and watch the Gavan/Gokaiger film.

#Supergirl #Superman #DCU #GodsandMonsters #MillyAlcock #JasonMamoa #EveRidley Supergirl is a drastically different film per the usual superhero fair. Its a movie thats taking a very powerful character and putting her in a very personal story thats still filled with the usual superhero action and adventure that we've seen before. And it ends up working very well by the end of it all.

#HeMan #MastersOfTheUniverse #Mattel #Skeletor #JaredLeto #IdrisElba #MotU #MOTU Masters of the Universe was in developmental hell for a long time. Its one to develop an animated series surrounding He-Man cause ultimately its a property that started out being made for the sake of selling toys much like alot of cartoons that came out in the 80s. Over the years though, the He-Man lore started gaining traction especially on the comic book side which lent itself to more semi-serious endeavors like the early 2000's Animated series and the recent Netflix show. In comes this movie which takes some of the silly aspects of the 80s show and mixes it in with the serious material and gives you a very fun and straightforward movie that is very unapologetic in what it is. Its a film thats very confident with the source material and it shows top to bottom from the performances(especially Jared Leto's Skeletor) to the world of Eternia. This is a movie that comes alive with its energy. Its definitely worth the watch even if you aren't a big He-Man fan.

#StarWars #TheMandalorianAndGrogu #TheMandalorian #Grogu #Disney #LucasFilms The Mandalorian and Grogu is a throwback to the classic tried and true simple action/adventure movie where the movie wastes no time in getting you invested in the story. You can easily go into this film not watching the tv show because the movie through its actions tells you all you need to know not only about Mando but also of Grogu and the dynamics between the two. Great set pieces, solid visual effects, and a simple yet engaging story makes for a fun watch from beginning to end.
