Saturday Night Live: Dakota Johnson/Justin Timberlake (2024) Season 49, Episode 10

Barry Gibb

[5/10 · 1 February 2024]

Yeah...this episode was not great at all...could even call it horrible. The skits were horrible this week. Even the nostalgic Barry Gibb Talk Show was mediocre at best.

Starting with the Cold Open, it had some humor, and it was very meta, it was an ok open to the lackluster show. The skit ended, intro, then monolougue. The monologue was not great either, had a funny trump joke. Justin Timberlake and "Barry Gibb" make an appearance.

The first skit was ok, it had some laughs with occasional funny dialogue, but it still was not great. Second skit was good, some fun in there.

Now...The Barry Gibb Talk Show was for nostalgia. It was good nostalgia, if you love the previous ones then you'll love this one. Next skit was actually very fun, "Please Don't Destroy" hilariously roasting the host.

Next skit you can skip, along with the JT music. Then there is the "highlight" of every SNL show in the modern era, "Weekend Update", which had some laughs, but was not on par with other editions.

Next skit was absolutely horrible, but also meta. It was just a chance for NBC to promote new season of "Shark Tank". After that was a horrible JT song, then a skit to give time for Kenan's new protegè, it was funny too! That was the end of show, apparently Dave Chapelle was there, since he was on camera for the end.

All in all, horrible show with some ok/mediocre moments. They should be so much better than that, need new writers fast. Hopefully the show gets better.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters: Terrifying Miracles (2023) Season 1, Episode 6

Last few minutes ruined it

[7/10 · 20 December 2023]

The episode was good, even though it kept jumping back and forth/ back and forth. The last few minutes of drama ruined it. The character naturally reveals her selfish intent and just ruins the whole thing, or at least takes the rating down.

The back forth stuff in this series is getting repetitive and some it could easily be cut out of the story entirely because sometimes it just drags...I guess that was the intent though.

The reveal of Godzilla in the mountain at the end, hopefully they will explain that a little more. Him going from the destruction in San Francisco to being found in that desert under a mountain, where it formed over him, yeah it will hopefully be explained a little bit. It was awesome to see at least.

All Hallows' Eve (2013)

I'm down with this clown!

[8/10 · 1 November 2022]

This movie is pretty great, the only bad part was the second story, which was just out of place with the rest. Art The Clown stole the movie, mainly because all the stories/ envelope story connected to him.

Envelope story is a babysitter with 2 kids on Halloween, somehow one of the kids get a vhs tape in thier candy bag...then the three watch it.

First story is with Art the Clown, which is suspensful, then turns to violence, it's slso shot arthouse style. The story ends, then back to babysitter.

After a few minutes, the second story starts, which is a good suspensful story...until the reveal, just not fun after that. The story ends and back to suspensful babysitter story.

Third story starts, another great one, very suspensful and gory...features Art The Clown! It's possibly one of the bettter ones.

The movie as a whole was great, suspensful and gory, the only issue was the second story, which just took you away from the overall aspect of the movie. It would be a 9/10 if it were not for the second story.

2 Jennifer (2016)

Creep Ripoff

[3/10 · 23 May 2020]

This tried too much to be Blumhouse's Creep (2014) movie, but was not executed as well. It was long, boring, you probably knew how it was going by the point the main guy was nude in the bathroom talking to Jennifer. Spoilers!! You could tell the main guy was demented in some way early on, but really you officially find out at the end where he meets the producer of the fake movie he is making. You find out right there when nobody knows what he is talking about. Soon after, we find out he has been lying the whole time and stalked the producer James. This had good gore at the end, and was the highlight of the movie along with the nudity from main girl. The goriest moment even made me cringe, and I am a gore fan! He literally cuts his balls off or stabs and busts them, blood everywhere. Anyways...if you like Creep (2014), you might like this, but it is nowhere as good. Very boring stuff.

Dude Bro Party Massacre III (2015)

Comedy horror!

[5/10 · 10 May 2020]

Hey, I'm a big fan of comedy horror...and this is...1 to to watch when drunk or wasted or with friends while drunk. This movie knows exactly what it is...a very bad comedy horror that is a parody of 80s slasher flicks. That's really all I neec to say. Explains the whole premise. If you love parody/ comedy-horror, then this is what you need to watch! It is currently "free" on Amazon Prime as of May 10th, 2020.

The Greasy Strangler (2016)

Very weird movie!

[7/10 · 2 May 2020]

Idk, this was surprisingly good. Idk why it is in the horror comedy genre though, no horror in it....except the site of a huge dîck and ugly giant merkins through most of it. This was a very weird movie throughout...the type comedy is more for Tim and Eric mixed with Napoleon Dynamite fans. I would recommend it for drunk or high people, but I was neither and still enjoyed it. Hard to explain movie is all I can say. The nudity throughout is good. If you like the BBW type, there is the main actress nude throughout, shows everything except the P, which is covered by a big comedic and ugly merkin. The 2 main actors both wear prostetic crotches, which are also comedic, one huge and one very tiny. Big twist at the end of the movie too, very unexpected!

Escape Plan: The Extractors (2019)

More of a hostage flick than a prison escape.

[4/10 · 10 April 2020]

As explained in the title, this is more of a hostage film where Breslin has to rescue his team mates once again, but unlike the 2nd (which is also horrible), this is just...well, horrible. Nothing really to do with escaping a prison, (even if it yet again takes place in a prison),but more to do with Rambo killing everyone in the way. Can in fact see a lot of similarities between Rambo: Last Blood (2019) and this, strays from that with the standard son of former friend (of main character) wants revenge plot. You can also tell that the writers and Sly knew this might be last one in series, predictable stuff happens.

Cagaster of an Insect Cage (2020)

Missed opportunity....

[7/10 · 29 March 2020]

This was a little hard to get into, but eventually it turned out ok once the main story arc got going. I have only watched what was the 1st 12 of the anime in Dub on the Netflix, so do not know much about the rest of story from manga. This story has a lot of characters where you can easily just HATE, especially the military villains. One huge missed opportunity is with the English cast....you have a character who is a macho male crossdresser who looks very similar to the great Willem Dafoe, but they did not cast him for the voice over! Rest of cast is ok, Johnny Yong Bosch is one of the voices, can literally never go wrong with him.

Supergirl: It's a Super Life (2020) Season 5, Episode 13

Super Cheese is GREAT!

[9/10 · 6 March 2020]

This is basically an "envelope/bottle" where it takes place with key characters/ has a few cameos/ use old footage, you know the deal. In this though, Mixie comes back to show Kara the past and how things could have gone....1 big "What If" show. That is the good part about it! Essentially doing things that were maybe pitched by writers/ producers and denied/ rewritten for some reason. This shows things that maybe they (CW/ producers, etc...) didn't have the balls to do earlier, and since this is essentially just a "what if" type, then it is now ok. Filler is what it is, but they do this very nicely...if you are passionate about the cast/ characters. Plus...Thomas Lennon now plays Mixie (Myxyplytilik) (spelling?), better than original guy I think. This is an overall good/ great one! I gave it a 9/10 (which I usually do not give for bottle/flashback types unless they are great)
