Just a few moments ago, I went to the theatre to go see Christopher Nolan's new movie Tenet in IMAX and it was great. It was very safe and everyone had their masks on. I do recommend going to the theaters again, the way I exprienced it. However, that is not why we're here. We're here to talk about Tenet and see if it holds up after all the delays, due to COVID-19 . Before I begin, I a;so recommend seeing the new version of Mulan, if you have the time, because that movie is very good, trust me. Otherwise, give that a rental, when it comes out on DVD and Blu-ray. Let's just move on.

Anyway, so the story of Tenet is as follows: Armed with only one word, Tenet, and fighting for the survival of the entire world, a Protagonist journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will unfold in something beyond real time.

So, yeah. Basically, time goes backwards and a team of spies prevent World War III from ever happening.

This film ranks among Christopher Nolan's masterpieces with brilliant performances from the cast, incredible special effects, a great music score and masterful direction. Yet, the film contains a few similarities to one of Nolan's other movies, Inception. However, the two-and-a-half hour running time almost makes it so complicated, you'd have to pay attention to everything.

Outside of that, Tenet is the movie that will save 2020, with the end of the pandemic reaching closer as the weeks go by.

Tenet gets 10 out of 10.

See you at the movies and at this time,stay safe and wash your hands. Seriously!

Just today, I heard that a live-action Powerpuff Girls TV show is in development. The story involves The Powerpuff Girls (Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup as disillusioned twentyseomethings who resent having lost their childhood to crime fighting. Someone on the internet said it reminded him of the edgy fan film of the Power Rangers, back in 2015. How do I feel about this? I feel just as  excited as I was when I heard that Netflix was planning their live-action reboot of Avatar: The Last Airbender.

This is just so cool. I wonder, if it will to a live-action feature film based on the original animated show, in the style of Nolan's Batman films. I can dream, can I? We'll just have to wait and see.

In the meantime, see you at the movies.

A petition has been set to convince Warner Bros. to release Scoob in theatres on June 19, (taking the place of Pixar's Soul), rather than straight-to-video-on-demand on May 15, as it's been announced days ago.

Just a few hours ago, I went to see Sonic the Hedgehog movie. The story is: After discovering the titular small, blue, fast hedgehog, a small-town police officer must help it defeat an evil genius  named  Dr. Robotnik who wants to do experiments on it.

After the delay this movie had, because the backlash surrounding the initial design of Sonic's appearence in the original trailer, to give the effects team more time to redesign the character, we  finally got this movie.

It captures the spirit of the original Sega games, with straight-up action, improved visuals and brilliant performances from the cast, particularly Jim Carrey's performance as Dr. Robotnik.

This was much better than the Transformers movies, whereas if instead of focusing on the guy watching the Transformers, we focus on the Transformers, except in this case, it's Sonic going faster than ever.

Overall, I give Sonic The Hedgehog, a Thumbs Up! Go check it out!

See you at the movies.

​I wanted to talk for a moment about the movie “Birds of Prey”. Yesterday it was announced that the movie was going to me listed as “Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey” on the websites of top theater chains like Regal Cinemas, Cinemark and AMC Theatres. This was done so moviegoers searching for “Harley Quinn” would see her in the title of the movie and not get confused.
 
I understand why this move was made, but I think it does a disservice to the movie. I’ve seen the movie, and it’s good. It should be doing better at the box office, in my opinion. However, (small spoilers ahead) while the story focuses on Harley Quinn for much of the movie, the movie is really about the formation of a group of heroes. Harley Quinn, for all her appeal, is a villain. I think it’s important to not downplay the good guys in this movie.  I’m glad that Warner Bros. didn’t officially change the name of the movie, but I think the Theatres should keep the name ‘Birds of Prey’ also.
 
I also think it’s important for the full title, “Birds of Prey, and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn” to appear on the Blue-Ray and DVD release, as well as the IMDB page, and so on.
 
That’s it for now. See you at the movies!
