What I Watched on TV in June

-
June FLEW by. A lot went on for me personally in this month so it felt a bit chaotic but I still had my down time to watch some TV. Here's what was keeping me busy on the small screen in June.

 Attack on Titan

 Season 3 came to a very beautiful end and it is announced that S4 will be its last. There's quite a bit of Manga left so I'm hoping there's plenty of episodes to fit that all in. And hopefully the guy running things is reigned in a bit because we don't needed forced Eren/Mikasa in every episode. (Seriously, the worst ship)

 Big Little Lies

 Season 2 has been great so far. The biggest surprise for me has been Adam Scott. Not that I'm surprised he can act, I knew that, but they gave him great material. You can tell Reese is gunning for that Emmy this year. Meryl Streep's Mary Louise is the worst character I've seen in a long time. I hope she gets tossed down the steps at the end of this season.

Euphoria

 Euphoria has been a big surprise. I wasn't sure how much I could enjoy a show following teens as I feel so removed from it nowadays but Zendaya is outstanding. The drama surrounding these kids is mostly very interesting and I appreciate how the show is choosing to show a ton of dick instead of the usual female nudity. The dick pic power point in episode 3 was hysterical.

 Legion

 I've only watched the first episode of the 3rd and final season and as always, I'm confused. We basically followed a new character around for the majority of it. I'm not sure why I continue to watch this to be honest, they're almost too weird for their own good.

    After Midsommar I think I am fine with not seeing a dick for a while 😅.

    Still havent started new season of Lies. Not interested in more than one season of that. Witherspoon annoys me so much

      Oh no something happens to dicks in Midsommer? Is it Monday yet? lol

      if you don't like Witherspoon S2 is definitely not for you because she has the most focus this season, even over Celeste. Or at least it feels that way.

      No it's just there's a dick and then the dick is erect and it's attached to a dude who I didn't find attractive and he was really pathetic lol

      You just know Witherspoon demanded that shit. Her ego is huge and she has this awful bossy way of speaking. Ugh lol

    I've seen bits of Euphoria and damn, they're going all out with the dicks. Hey, as long as I get to see ass and titties and ladies get to see dicks. What is there to complain about? It's time for nudity to be more even between men and women.

    I haven't seen much of Big Little Lies other than what is happening as I'm waiting for that moment of Reese throwing an ice cream cone at Meryl.

      I agree, and dicks need a lot of spotlight before they catch up lol.

      I need Mary Louise getting something thrown at her.

    Ah, my kinda gal. I also love Euphoria and I was shocked when my friend said she thought there were too many dicks. Like seriously, up until now, every other movie/show is swamped with boobs and now, a show shows more dick than boob, and suddenly it's a problem? If we'd be subjected to more dicks in general people wouldn't be as shocked about it.
    I for one think the show is so bold and out there, I'm frankly surprised it's an US show not UK. Like go HBO for breaking the stereotypical US teen show box and doing something fresh.
    Also, not gonna lie, I need shyguy to turn out good not bad.. like I don't want him to be evil.. like I get it, he a bad guy, but I'm hoping the show changes him. Like please.... that pairing is what fanfiction is made of.

      EXACTLY! I agree, it is a bit surprising it's a US show and not another season of Skins without the humor or something.

    Nice picks! I'm having such a tough time enjoying/watching with Big Little Lies right now. Meryl wore out her welcome in the third episode, and the plot is just okay this season. I'm mostly watching for Nicole, Shailene and Zoe right now.

    I was unsure about a second season of Big Little Lies but I definitely need to check it out now, especially if Adam Scott's role is so good!

    Attack on Titan, nice. I just finished watching Avatar: The Last Airbender, and although it's not exactly Anime, I still count it as that. Now let's see what the boyfriend makes me watch next :)

    I'm waiting for both Big Little Lies and Euphoria to end, so I can binge watch them

      I count that as anime too. My niece was really into that, but I never started it.

      I wish I could binge both of those at once. Waiting in between episodes is torture sometimes. Especially tonight's BLL.

Random Ramblings: The Radio Flyer Conundrum

-

Recently, I was talking to someone about who I thought were the best child actors when I was also a child.  Two that really stood out to me were Elijah Wood and Joseph Mazello, and one film those two were in together was called Radio Flyer.  Then I was reminded about the uniqueness of this film. Instead of reviewing the film, I wanted to have an open discussion about the ending. It deals with a tough issue; child abuse. What I’ve noticed is the way that the film ends is interpreted many different ways, and the filmmakers never came forward to say what was right and wrong. I’m interested in hearing everyone’s opinions on it. How did you interpret the ending? Obviously spoiler alerts will follow.. For those of you who haven’t seen the film, the basic premise is this: Two young boys, Mikey (Wood) and Bobby (Mazello) move in with their single mother and her boyfriend, who refers to himself as ‘The King’. It doesn’t take long for The King to start physically abusing ...

Indie Gems: Behind The Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon

Passionate about your profession? I had never heard of this film until it ended up on one of Jason's favorite horror movie lists around Halloween. It immediately sounded interesting to me, so of course I threw it in my Netflix queue. (and if I'm just now watching it after adding it around Halloween, you know how ridiculous my queue is) Taylor (Angela Goethals) is a journalist who, along with a film crew decides to follow around a serial killer named Leslie Vernon. (Nathan Baesel) He plans on doing the typical slasher thing - getting a bunch of drunk teens in an abandoned house and knocking them off one by one. He gets advice from a retired serial killer, Eugene (Scott Wilson) and is threatened by a man who's on to him, Doc Holloran (Robert Englund) Taylor and crew are there capturing it all. Leslie Vernon is fucking hilarious to start with, and clearly very passionate about what he does. He tells Taylor all of his secrets and can barely contain his excitemen...

My Favorite Movie Youtube Channels

-

Starting around 2018, I started watching Youtube for more than just movie trailers or music videos whenever a new one dropped. Now I'm in full blown subscription mode and don't bat an eyelash at watching a Youtube video that's over an hour long. I watch Youtube for a few different categories of content, but one of them that I love most is movie/TV essays and commentary, and that's what I'm going to talk about today. Below is a list of my favorite movie related Youtube channels. Let me know if you're familiar with them too, or if you have any you'd like to recommend to me.  Double Toasted - I'm honestly surprised this channel isn't bigger. I first came across Korey and Martin when they reviewed War for the Planet of the Apes a few months before it hit theaters and I thought they were hysterical. While their full length videos stream on Twitch, they often upload their movie reviews and commentary on youtube and they're always hilarious. They've...
