I did listen to this on Audible, and I have to say that the narrator (Rosario Dawson) was really good. It’s just a shame she had to read this book ??♀️

Erika (17788 KP) rated Ahsoka in Books
Apr 26, 2020 (Updated Apr 26, 2020)
Her characterization of Ahsoka was alright. Honestly, the reason I believe Ahsoka is so popular is because of her arc and because of the voice actress, Ashley Eckstein. Ashley knows the character inside and out, and I think she probably would have been the best person to write it.I'm not looking forward to anyone else touching the character (cough, cough, Rosario Dawson).
The only thing that was a necessary part of canon that came out of this was how Ahsoka got her new cyber crystals for her white sabers, as seen in Rebels. That was one of the only things I liked about the book.

LeftSideCut (3778 KP) rated Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020) in Movies
Sep 23, 2020
Apokolips War is the final movie in the 16-part connected DC Animated Movie Universe, which started back in 2013 with The Flashpoint Paradox, and as a culmination of this particular storyline, it's near perfect.
In terms of plot, things are batshit insane from the get go - notable heroes are slaughtered as Darkseid lays waste to Earth, leaving a broken and small crew left to hold the fort and try and claw a win from a seemingly desperate situation. Everyone gets involved - Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Swamp Thing, Etrigan, Shazam, Martian Manhunter, Raven, the whole Suicide Squad roster, just to name a few, and with all these heavy hitters in tow, it's an absolute pleasure to have Constantine at the forefront of it all, once again voiced by the fantastic Matt Ryan.
He's joined by the likes of Rosario Dawson, Tony Todd, Rebecca Romijn, Jerry O'Connell, Taissa Farmiga, Jason O'Mara, Camilla Ludington, John DiMaggio - it's a stacked voice cast to say the least.
The animation is wonderful, the action is non-stop and brutal, gritty yet smooth - it just feels like the creative team on this one pulled out all the stops to make sure the DCAMU finished with and Avengers Endgame sized flex.
It knocks spots off the first Justice League Dark entry and is ultimately my pick for the finest animated DC feature out there.
LeftSideCut (3778 KP) rated Zombieland: Double Tap (2019) in Movies
May 16, 2020
The four main characters - Columbus (Jesse Rosenberg), Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Wichita (Emma Stone), and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) - are a huge part of what made the first film work so well, and thankfully, the chemistry between them all is still intact.
It takes a minute to show though.
After the gratuitous opening scene, Double Tap struggles to find its feet somewhat.
It's not until the main plot kicks off that things get rolling again, and from there, it's great gory fun.
Zoey Deutch is great as Madison, a stereotypical blonde bimbo character who didn't really grab me in the trailers, but is actually pretty damn funny in the finished product.
Rosario Dawson is also here this time around and I'm pretty much guaranteed to love her in anything she's in, so thumbs up there.
The climax to the film feels a little out of nowhere by the time it's rolls around, but it's pretty spectacular to say the least, not too unlike the first film.
Honestly, Double tap is best explained as more of the same, and that's not a bad thing.
On a final note, I found the film to be a solid 7/10 throughout, but Bill Murray battling zombies during the initial outbreak whilst promoting the fictional Garfield 3: Flabby Tabby pushed it to a well deserved 8/10. Well played Zombieland, well played.
