32. Predator Badlands

The most video game feeling film I've seen in awhile. Not really a "Predator" movie, but really fun still.

31. Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein

Enrapturing! One of Del Toro's most beautiful films ever. The best Frankenstein adaptation seen!

30. Thunderbolts*

Pleasantly surprised this lived up to all the hype I saw surrounding it. Well written, acted, and directed, and I enjoyed every character despite this being my first introduction to them (except Bucky). I didn't even hate a majority of the quippiness.

29. Red Sox 2025 Season

First season in a while where I followed every game since the opener. Fortunate to also have seen a game live again for the first time since 2008. A Rollercoaster of a season. Looking forward to the next however that may look.

28. DanDaDan - Season 2

It's good, but not as good as the first season to me. Loved the first half of it a lot. The second half didn't do a whole lot to make itself better than just good.

27. Katrina: Come Hell and High Water

An intense must-watch. It's crazy how much people seem to forget how devastating Katrina was and still is.

26. WEAPONS

Incredible. It is insane how much this feels like a horror skit found in the Whitest Kids U'Know (which makes a lot of sense considering the director). Absolutely excellent.

25. SUPERMAN

That Gunn was LOADED!
Corenswet is a great Superman. Hoult might be the most punchable Lex Luthor I've seen. So glad Fillion got to play a Green Lantern on the big screen. Everyone else was great.

24. Donkey Kong Country

Prepping myself for Banaza by finally beating DKC. Hard to believe it's taken this long. It's peak platforming goodness that has aged incredibly well.

23. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach

Stunning. There is so much to say (and will say in this month's Medium post). Evolved and enhanced the gameplay from the first with an emotional and wild story.

My current Game of the Year.

22. MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING

Thank you, President Tom Cruise.
One of the greatest films I've ever had the pleasure of seeing in theaters.

21. The Wild Robot

Stunning. I'm in awe. One of the most beautiful films I've ever seen.

20. Marvel Rivals

Started playing a few weeks ago. While it's fun and fills the void left by Overwatch, the constant issues I'm having on PC are getting irritating. Opening on the wrong monitor every time is tolerable, but the seemingly inevitable game crashes are inexcusable.

19. Rogue One (rewatch)

Rewatched this after finishing Andor. While I like it more now, the problems don't go away. CGI Tarkin still sucks, not enough Saw Gerrera, that Jedha cameo is BAD, and Vader should've been an ending surprise or cut out.

Cassian is still the GOAT

18. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (rewatch)

Crazy that this film turned 20. Feels literally like yesterday 9-year-old me got out of school and went to see it with my dad.

This is the best prequel but MAN does it get stupider and funnier with each rewatch.

Andor: A Star Wars Story - Season 2

In awe. Phenomenal show. Its only sin is that this is the end of it. And to think I dismissed it when it first got announced.

Here's hoping Star Wars will get another show with this same quality.

16. Tales of the Underworld

Honestly, about as forgettable as Tales of the Empire. Didn't feel like they were necessary stories that needed to be told, and I'm getting a little sick of stories set between episodes 3 and 4. If we get another, I hope it's "Tales of Rebellion."

15. The Clubhouse: A Year with the Red Sox (2025)

Had no idea that the Sox had this being filmed at all last season. It's such a great deep dive behind the scenes of not just "Da Sawx" but also Baseball as a whole.

Also, Yankees Suck :)

14. Twisters (2024)

It's fun. No joke, part of this movie played out exactly how I thought the original film was about (the stopping tornados with science). I also find it funny how I've seen Anthony Ramos in three films now where he is either a former or active-duty soldier.

13. Barbie (2023)

Jesus Christ, this is so fucking good. It's absolute cinema.

I'm now even more upset that I never did the Barbenheimer thing or even saw it in theaters.

Not a fan of all these "X if it were Ghibli" AI slop posts that are being forced upon me.

Want a piece of art? Commision a REAL ARTIST or pick up A FUCKING PENCIL!!

12. Shadow of the Erdtree

Expected to only be 30 more hours of Elden Ring at most, but it nearly doubled my playtime to 300. Completely understand the mixed feelings some fans had, especially since it took me 2 weeks to beat the final boss.

11. Mickey 17

Had an empty theater seeing this. I wasn't even gonna see it in theaters, but WB being idiots and pulling it barely a month in made me say fuck it. Was it worth it? Kinda.

I wouldn't call this my favorite Bong Joon Ho film, but I did enjoy it quite a bit.

Got this month's Medium write-up dropping in a few days. It's about a little game that's turning 10 on the 24th.

Check out last month's on World at War if you missed it.

10. Invincible - Season 3

Put this on while I assembled some shelves and wound up watching every episode in one day. Not perfect and felt one plot should have been a two-parter instead of just the one, but overall good. Loved Jeffrey Deam Morgan as Conquest. The best episode.
