so beautifully done. it’s been a few years since i’ve read the book, so the ending was a shock to me all over again & it was wonderful. 2022 has done it right with movies so far and i’m so glad theaters are open again so that these movies can be experienced the way they deserve. a truly heartbreaking and beautiful film full of all the things that make a person feel something

Top Gun: Maverick 2022
phenomenal. i mean, truly, truly phenomenal. i only just watched Top Gun for the first time last night & figured i should go watch Top Gun: Maverick before it was out of theaters and my expectations were high given the ratings i’ve seen but the movie…it exceeded those expectations far beyond what i thought capable (these are not my kind of movies usually). i had no idea what Top Gun was about before this time last night and now i’m a…

Moonrise Kingdom 2012
“what happened?”
“she left her binoculars on a hook in the chapel tent.”
“just leave ‘em!”
“we can’t. it’s her magic power!”
oh absolutely. i loved every second of this film. my second favorite Wes Anderson movie, just slightly below Fantastic Mr. Fox. i really enjoyed the story and the journey Moonrise Kingdom takes you on. i never know what to expect with Anderson and i like that a lot. his movies never turn out to be what i anticipated… -
Paddington 2 2017
every ounce as lovely and spectacular as everyone claims. the ending of Paddington 2 may be my favorite ending to any movie ever and there was no stopping my tears. the thoughtful story + the visuals = so very Wes Anderson-esque. an immediate favorite. i’ll proclaim it to the world: I LOVE PADDINGTON BEAR <3

The Bob's Burgers Movie 2022

The Breakfast Club 1985
“it’s sushi.”
“sushi?”
“rice, raw fish, and seaweed.”
“you won’t accept a guy’s tongue in your mouth but you’re gonna eat that?”
“can i eat?”
“i don’t know. give it a try.”
the lunch scene is one of my favorites in all of cinematic history. i am a The Breakfast Club bitch through and through -
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent 2022
take a shot every time ‘Nicolas Cage’ is said in the film & you’ll be blackout drunk by the half hour mark. it’s a 107 minute love letter from Nic Cage to Nic Cage and, i mean, i get it. Nic Cage rocks! he is one of the very, very few actors who can make a movie like this and pull it off imo. i <3 Nicolas Cage.
& at the very least the film made me want to get Paddington 2 off my watchlist asap no rocky -
Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore 2022
the most filler movie i’ve ever seen in my life. if there was the potential for this to be the last one of the franchise (probably for the best though i almost want another just so there’s a more concrete conclusion) you think there would have been a somewhat better wrap up to the whole Grindlewald business. David Yates, you directed my favorite Harry Potter movies, but this? filler garbage. you’re better than this.
