So I'm going to try and see if I can review a movie tonight to help me prep for tomorrow's slugfest of Me vs Twilight.

THE NIGHTMARE ON THE NETFLIX!!! TOMORROW NIGHT!

Uh. Sorry. Ad read.

So I thought long and hard about what movie I could watch to help me out.
See. It needed to be something about an underdog who struggles with a new situation.

Ya know. Surviving against all odds and all that.

See the important part isn't necessarily ending up being the official winner. No. It's about going the distance.
With that in mind I found the perfect flick that's not technically in the 80s, but I think we can ignore that.

It's a movie about perseverance and, I'd argue, redemption.

So you may get something you don't expect tonight. A movie with some heart.
Now, I won't say exactly what movie it is, but let's just say I love a good montage and looking to overcome yesterday's...rocky reviews.

HAHAHA.

Seriously, though, I'm going to try to review another movie tonight. We'll see how it goes. It might suck. It might not.

9pmish PDT

The live review of #Twlight begins right now, but I uploaded a little interview with the vampire I did to get you started as I go get booze.

If this does well, I'll do the series.

If not? I'll find some other way to disappoint.

"I have no mouth and I must scream"
#Twilight from the #TwilightSaga stars Robert Pattingson and a stiff board called Kirsten Hungryman Tv Dinner.

It also stars my liver weeping in a corner.
We start with a voiceover by Bella that says “I never given much thought to dying.”

You never dealt with quarantine or an actual thought.

Some of you may have guessed my next review. I always enjoyed the #Rocky series. You had the first one that didn’t end as you expected. The awesome fighting in IV.

Mr T showed up.

So of course I picked the classic one.

Rocky V

Let’s watch this.
Rocky V stars Sly, his son, and Francis Ford Copolla’s sister.

It’s about Rocky trying to reclaim lost glories and to make a star out of his kid decades before the Fresh Prince tried.
We start with a quick recap of Rocky IV where Rocky beat up a Swedish Chemical engineer.

He fought to avenge his fallen friend and to make America Free????

So you all chose Twister. It stars Bill Pax Vobiscum (Weird Science) and Helen Hunt (Quarterback Princess).

It also has some great costars like Cary “John” Elway (Workaholics) and Phillip “Dustin” Hoffman (Patch Adams).
It starts…wait. Is this Wizard of Oz?
Okay. It’s not. We start in June 1969 (Nice) with a big storm coming. Not that one. A literal one.

So sometimes I like to do a movie review of a truly great film.

Today isn't one of those days.

I'm reviewing that pile of trash Pixels.

Man...I...I make bad choices in life sometimes.
It stars Adam Sandler, Josh Gad, Kevin James, and Peter Dinklage.

Yeah. Usually I make joke names. If I did that in this case then my first post would be funnier than the entire movie.
I legit tried to watch this before, but I gave up halfway. Like straight up just went "Naww. I don't need to waste my existence on this."

Then Covid happened...and now look at what I'm doing.

*long sigh*

So I've been doing reviews for almost 2 weeks straight now and I realize it's definitely unsustainable. I mean it takes a lot of energy and focus, especially with the longer ones.

So that's why I'm going to review #Titanic

Starring Leonardo DiVincio and Kate Wimbledonset.
OH, god. I immediately regret this. Like. 100% regret typing that out.

Ugh....WHY WOULD I DO THIS????
Understand I will be taking breaks. Like. Straight up will be taking breaks. This thing is longer than my willpower can sustain.

So no one actually wanted me to review Road House and that’s the kind of situation I like.

So let’s watch Road House. An 80s action film about business management and neck ripping moves.
It stars the incredibly awesome Patrick Swayze and Sam Elliot.

If manliness could be boiled down to its purest parts, it would just be a picture of those two.
We start at at a bar with people dancing poorly to live music.

Tilgeman is a guy looking for some Swayze.
