  Obi-Wan Kenobi 2022

  ★★½ Watched by Rob 26 Jun 2022

  I may have written this before, but it bears repeating: I could live the remainder of a long and fulfilling life without ever seeing the surface of Tatooine again. Seriously, between fully half the movies, plus The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, and now this, I have spent more hours on Tatooine than I have in the western part of Massachusetts, and I've lived here for most of forty years.

  ★★★ Watched by Rob 25 Jun 2022 6

  Okay: there's a teenage girl named America Chavez who has the power to physically travel the Multiverse, but not to become a breakthrough…

  Perfect 2018

  ★½ Watched by Rob 12 Jan 2020 2

  We open with seizure-inducing flickering lights and a voice over direct from an incel's manifesto, and I fear that I might have made a terrible movie selection.

  Then we cut to a teenager, who has apparently murdered a girl in his bedroom, calling his mom for help, and it seems the voice over might well have been straight out of an incel's 4Chan post history, and I am questioning the life choices that have brought me here, in front of…
