    2: Dante's Peak
    Jun 3 2023
    Watch out my dudes, it's a disaster film! Dante's Peak was one of my favorite films to watch with my dad when I was a kid. Now that all grown up me no longer have a relationship with my dad, rewatching Dante's Peak, believe it or not, has been an interesting and completely different experience. Regardless, I still love this movie just as much! Join me as I recap and gave some fun science info on the film!

    3: The Sound of Music
    Jun 19 2023
    The hills are alive! With the sound of me not loving this movie as much as I used to. The Sound of Music got me through some rough times growing up, watching it all these years later, I now understand why the undiagnosed Audhd kid version of me loved this movie. Join me while I recap and discuss The Sound of Music, all grown up.

    Jul 30 2023
    Guys, I was obsessed with this movie as a kid. But I hadn't watched it in so long that I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about it after all these years. It turns out I'm still in love with it, but I have some very important points to add to the gender framing of it all! Join me as I recap and discuss this classic 90's romantic comedy starring Diane Keaton, Steve Martin, Kimberly Williams, Keiran Culkin, and Martin Short.
