🎬 ~ 20th Century Girl

rating: 10/10

ok bro i shed a couple tears. what i was expecting to happen kinda happened. and some things i wasn't expecting and it also happened. I GASPED SO FUCKING LOUD WHEN ONG SEUNGWOO CAME IN OUTTA NOWHERE BRO DJDJSJS. i- ok dude the scene where bora and woonho say goodbye at the train station and bora's crying her eyes out and woonho is tearfully smiling but straight up starts painfully bawling when he's out of bora's sight in the train shihhhdhd BRO THINKING ABT IT IS MAKING ME TEAR UP. THIS MOVIE BRO idk i can't put it into words i think imma bawl a bit if i don't stop thinking abt it. should i give it 10/10?? hmm yes. i think i would have been sadder if tanisha didn't say it has a "REALISTIC ENDING" but oh well it did affect me. this movie put my angst daydreams to life fuck bro.

📖 ~ Daisy Jones & The Six

rating: 5/5

now, let me put a few things in perspective. i didn't like this book. if the rating were based solely on my personal experience w this book, it would have gotten a 1 star rating. but i have to acknowledge the fact that the subject matter of this book is such that i don't fully grasp or understand it to the extent it was meant to. i had no emotional attachment to any character. somehow the characters ended up being both one dimensional and nuanced at the same time. idk tbh. it is what it is. maybe some day i'll fully grasp the concept of this book and wholeheartedly embrace that 5 star rating. i did end up highlighting a lot of shit in this book, i think it's the most i've ever done? maybe not. i didn't count. what i wanted to happen didn't happen. this story is abt addiction. a real world problem. and as a person who reads for escapism... well... yk. i couldn't properly get the chemistry between billy and daisy. better off as friends. eddie was fucking annoying. i wanted daisy x warren to happen but who's listening to me? graham was lovesick the whole time. i'm happy for pete and jenny. karen was... eh. wish we could've expanded on simone more. camila was fine but again ehhh.

🎬 ~ The School For Good and Evil

rating: 8/10

i think a scene w sofia wylie made me tear up.the casting for sophie was perfect, but sofie's character arc was cut down a lot for the movie and it didn't truly showcase her narcissism ykwim? TEDROS. i was most nervous abt how he'd been casted and at his first appearance i was like NO ABSOLUTELY NOT but his fight choreography was so good and when he opens his mouth to talk to agatha uff the charisma and the chemistry btwn them too won me over fr. all the fight scenes were so good bro, spectacularly choreographed that pumpkin scarecrow scene was straight outta a horror movie Imao i jumped, and that TOXIC by Britney Spears waala orchestra music and vocals during the evers vs. nevers OHHH MY LORD BEST REMIX EVER. aside frm that, the whole rafal thing was as off-putting in the movie as it was in the books. in the book they brought it out of nowhere but they at least tried to establish it properly in the movie, but alas, i didn't like it in either, but the good brother's personality was kinda hot-STOP. SADER MY LOVE WAS NOT IN THE MOVIE WHAT A CRIME but it's a good thing too ig coz no one can do my love justice, lol he's blind like Matt too oh no i don't have a blind man type right? SHIT- Lady Lesso was hot ok why what idk and no one told me Cate Blanchett voiced the Storian how odd. I LIKED GREGORY BUT HE GOT DONE SO DIRTY POOR GUY. OK THATS THE REVIEW BYE.

📺 ~ Akudama Drive

rating: 6/10

cyberpunk anime. group of misfits pull off a heist. i liked hacker and also courier x swindler >>> but it never happened in canon yikes. literally everyone dies. the finale is actually very good. it was the middle part which was lacking but the end was worth it. courier and swindler's death was very impactful. and also that first executioner's death (low-key hot). i despise the op theme. lots of very abrupt cutting too. ambiguous ending.
