Garfield: His 9 Lives 1988
Before I get into tinfoil hat theory on how Garfield becomes the creator of the universe, I want to talk about his 6th life first.
Diana's Piano (or Garfield's 6th life) was unexpected. Who knew in between the goofy settings for all nine cat lives we'd find a simple heartfelt story that's nothing like Garfield at all. Not even fully animated, just still images of pure emotion. Easily my favorite life from the special.
It's a shame that they didn't…

The Queen's Gambit 2020
Being a competitive Smash Bros. player, I unsurprisingly related a lot with Elizabeth Harmon's obsession with winning and the problems that come along with it.

The love that we are all yearning for. The love we're all trying to chase. We just have to find…

First Reformed 2017
Wow does this look good. Ethan Hawke is incredible here. I was completely hooked. Movies about faith and spirituality will always be interesting me, especially when it takes it as thoughtfully as this movie. I definitely need to rewatch this in the future (and I probably won't).
