LoganCrews (2861 KP) rated Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009) in Movies

Still hilarious as hell. Its breakneck energy, spastic animation, and frenetic joke-ifying forever influenced the current playing field for fast-paced children's blockbusters such as The Lego Movie(s) and its subsequent clones - good or ill. The inescapable hype around this back in the day was totally deserved because we'd seldom really seen anything like this at the time, and it's truly sad this is looked upon less fondly today just because it isn't as revolutionary as it once seemed. It still very much is imo, and how can one even try to deny that voice cast and role subversion?

My Man Jeeves is the first book I’ve read by P. G. Wodehouse, and I very much enjoyed it. They were very amusing stories, and there were lots of laugh out loud moments. They had a cartoonish quality to them, and it was as if the characters came from another world entirely - perhaps that’s just what it was like for the aristocracy at this time 🤷🏼♀️
I had avoided Wodehouse, thinking that he didn’t write ‘my kind of books’. How wrong I was!
Many thanks to The Pigeonhole for giving me the chance to read these short stories.

3.25 stars.
I didn't like this as much as the previous two. Admittedly I cried quite a bit, but I was bored a lot between the emotional bits near the end. I just couldn't get into the storyline. It didn't snag me, the characters didn't really grab my attention...
In truth, I was glad to get it over with but at the same time not having the will to read it.
It was nice to see the characters from the other two books and the Anna and St. Clair thing was nice :) I also think that this book rounded off the trilogy nicely.

David McK (3557 KP) rated Star Wars, Vol. 11: The Scourging of Shu-Torun in Books

I've just discovered that this is the final part in Keiron Gillen's run of Star Wars graphic novels, edging ever closer (as it does) to the timeline of The Empire Strikes Back.
Any, yes, in many respects it does 'feel' like a finale or even an epilogue, with the disparate plot threads of the previous entries all finally coming together and with Leia, Han, Luke and co all making a strike back at the Queen of Shu-Torun, whose betrayal was largely responsible for the massive defeat they suffered in Star Wars, Vol. 9: Hope Dies.

*I received a copy of this book and the other instalments in this series through Netgalley*
WTF have I just read?! Yeah, that was a little too f*cked up for my liking. I'm a reader of romance and though I like my tortured souls as much as the next person I think this was a little too graphic in the torturing department for me.
It was an interesting concept but NO! I didn't feel comfortable reading about it at all.
Thank you for the opportunity Riptide Publishing but I'm afraid I'll have to pass on the rest of the series.

holy wowza!!
I LOVED this film. The pacing, the cinematography, the characters, the plot, literally everything about it. I loved the details and the fact that it felt real. I think sometimes films like these, especially ones Netflix does, can have the intentions of being real but they just aren't. I think there's a little bit of Ellie, of Paul, of Aster, in all of us. I am in love with this film. Alice Wu knocked it out of the park and I can guarantee I will be watching this film over and over again. I am in love.
