Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender Movie Review
Don’t watch Avatar Aang. It is a broken movie on its own terms. It’s a broken movie when compared to the original show. There really isn’t any reason to watch or support it. Just watch Avatar: The Last Airbender.

The Chosen: Season 5
Overall, this season is better written than seasons two through four, with a tighter focus and a more interconnected storyline, as well as more consistent expansion and adaptation of Biblical scenes. However, it is told in a worse way, with atrocious pacing, a grim tone, and a few weird adaptation choices.

Andor Season 2 Review
Andor makes Star Wars – both the original movie and the franchise as a whole – better. If it’s the last chance we’ll get to have that as the darkness of Disney Star Wars continues, then take it while we’ve got it.

For me, there was no one last straw in this season. It’s just a sink in quality and thoughtfulness, with a rise in ponderous grimness and pacing problems, that makes me less eager to watch this show than I ever have been.

One Day Netflix Show Review
If you want real tears, do what you did the rest of the story. Don’t rely on coincidence for your ending. Because while you’ll have my tears in the moment, we’re still crying about the truly smart, interconnected, character-driven tragedies.

Andor Review
This show can make you fall in love with Star Wars all over again, discovering that wonder you had as a kid but with the mature point of view you have now. It’s the best of Sci-Fi. It’s the best of fantasy. It’s the best Star Wars since Return of the Jedi.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians Show Review
It’ll satisfy some fans. But just because it has the same series of events in a row with characters with the same names doesn’t mean it is the same. One is full of personality, fun, suspense, drama, and life. It was so good it made me fall in love with reading. The other is just…

House of the Dragon Review
This show is full of people, real people in difficult situations and making both good and bad decisions, even with costumes and dragons. And the most “real” person it showcases struggles with applying a deeply spiritual question to his hard life.
