#Saburo

Genre: Animation, Action, Adventure, Family, Sci-Fi
IMDb Synopsis: A young man learns that he has to find a hidden Earth ship before an enemy alien species does in order to secure the survival of humanity.
#Soft Flex
Film: Dark Waters
Genre: Biography, Drama, History
Description: A legal drama about the role of attorney Rob Bilott in uncovering the misdeeds of the DuPont corporation, particularly in regards to their role in the production of Teflon for nonstick cookware. Some good performances all around from the cast, although a few odd interactions here and there (though this may be chalked up to the writing moreso than the actual events). It's definitely had me giving thought to the composition of some of my older pots and pans.
@ Buffy
Film: Joker (2019)
Genre: Drama, Comic Book
Description: Deeply, unapologetically dark, Phoenix's portrayal is so unique and I honestly could not picture anyone else in this role. The film is able to show the Joker in such a completely different way than all other film iterations, while still being able to tie the character into the classic world we all know him from. A truly dark and in some ways very disturbing film, this is just beautifully done.
@ The Benz Mafia
Film: One, Two, Three (1961)
Genre: Screwball Comedy
IMDb Synopsis: In West Berlin during the Cold War, a Coca-Cola executive is given the task of taking care of his boss' socialite daughter.
@ Towelie
Film: Arrival (2016)
Genre: Drama, Sci-Fi
IMDb Synopsis: A linguist works with the military to communicate with alien lifeforms after twelve mysterious spacecraft appear around the world.

Television

Show: The Legend of Vox Machina (2022-)
Genre: Animation, Action, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy
IMDb Synopsis: They're rowdy, they're ragtag, they're misfits turned mercenaries for hire. Vox Machina is more interested in easy money and cheap ale than actually protecting the realm. But when the kingdom is threatened by evil, this boisterous crew realizes that they are the only ones capable of restoring justice. What began as a simple payday is now the origin story behind Exandria's newest heroes.
Fun fact: Based on an actual D&D campaign by Critical Role.
