Interesting Premise (0 more)
How it's seemingly incohesive, and not explained well enough. (0 more)
So I watched this movie based on the positive reviews....
I get the basic premise.... humanity is down to one single running train, and on that train there is a caste system, the poor ride in the back in poverty and the rich ride in front, living it up. Chris Evans must fight his way to the front in a bloody revolt. But I mean this is the very last of humanity, and yet still people are not valued.... I also get that the train is only so big, and must be kept at a perpetually maintained eco-system that is balanced. But yet, how it ended, was so abrupt and painful. They elude to the future, but really seems wasteful on so many levels.

The cure for marvel fatigue!
We absolutely loved The Umbrella Academy! The characters drew us in, and the depth of humanity in the storytelling kept us around for the whole thing. We were especially drawn to the coping mechanisms of each character. We were also drawn to the family dynamics.

Fun for all ages
A great family game. Just get your cards ready and go around the room for as little or as long as you want. It's the kid-friendly version of Cards Against Humanity, and still just as fun. Something my family tries to play every year at the holidays.

So good
At first I thought this book was just going to be ok. Nicole, the main character is so shallow and self absorbed. But then the story gets going and it just blew me away. This book shows not just the violence of the holocaust but the way they stripped so much of a persons humanity from them. It shook me as few other books have.

Adorable Journey
An old man finds out his old friend is dying and writes her a letter and goes to post it but walks past the postbox and keeps walking.
This is such a sweet lovely book that highlights all the beautiful things about humanity. It is an adorable gorgeous book
