  Jennifer's Body 2009

  ★★★½ Watched 15 Mar 2023

  This was released when I was a freshman in high school, and while watching now I was flashing back to friends quoting lines frequently. I'm glad to have finally seen it.

  Bit of a mixed bag. I like Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, but I dislike how try-hard Diablo Cody dialogue sounds. The story isn't an issue, Cody can write. It's just the affected dialogue. I'm hardly the first to hate it, and I feel cliche for even mentioning it.

  Could have been gayer.

  Zootopia 2016

  ★★★ Rewatched 14 Mar 2023

  I try to divorce Zootopia from its clumsy racial allegory, I find it more enjoyable that way. Not my favorite movie, but watchable. I think this is the second time I've seen it.

  Though I enjoy Jason Bateman, his voice never fits Nick for me. Too douchey, maybe?

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  Hadn't watched Buster in a while, but it's always such a treat to come back to him.

  Seeing all these 1920s men in their suits and hats makes want a nice tailored suit so badly. Can we please wear hats again, as a society? Can formalwear be normal wear?

  Anyway, there's so many good gags here! ° Buster does a little song and dance to calm down a baby, it's very cute.
  ° The hat sequence (especially that payoff!).
