https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukJ5dMYx2no&t=29s Coming out in the US March 9. A friend of mine recommended this trailer to me. This movie looks flippin' hilarious. Apparently based on a graphic novel, La mort de Staline. Looking forward to this semi-historical absurdity.

Ready Player One, a Call to Arms
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6vEqhOh8E0 I am absolutely floored by the new trailer for Ready Player One. I was already excited for this movie before seeing this trailer. Now I am not only excited for the entertainment value, but the cultural significance of this movie. This movie is going to be extremely fucking relevant to the people of my… Continue reading Ready Player One, a Call to Arms
Coco Recommendation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rvr68u6k5sI Kersti Rating: 10/10 Worth Seeing In Theaters: Most definitely yes. The movie is amazing and beautiful and deserving of a 10/10 regardless of visuals, but the visuals are pretty darn stunning. MVP: I cannot recommend this movie enough. I have not enjoyed an animated film this much since Song of the Sea or Finding Nemo.… Continue reading Coco Recommendation
The Annihilation Trailer is Out!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufaDurSCKOk The second of my 'books to read before they become movies in 2018' now has a trailer! And it looks really awesome. Somehow they have nailed the visuals for me. They are sufficiently surreal, with just the right amount of familiarity to put it on that border of unnerving and creepy. It seems like,… Continue reading The Annihilation Trailer is Out!
IT Movie Recommendation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKJmEC5ieOk Kersti Rating: 8/10 Worth Seeing In Theaters: There are some pretty awesome visuals that are cool to see in a theater setting, but overall the theater experience didn't feel entirely necessary to the enjoyment of the movie. I recommend seeing IT while in theaters, but no need to lament if you miss the opportunity.… Continue reading IT Movie Recommendation
Blade Runner 2049 Movie Recommendation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZOaI_Fn5o4 Kersti Rating: 8/10 Worth Seeing In Theaters: Yes the visuals are amazing and worth seeing on a giant screen. But go only if you can stand loud Inception-like soundtracks. MVP: I haven't seen the original Blade Runner in a very long time, and I remember surprisingly little about it. 2049 stands on its own as a… Continue reading Blade Runner 2049 Movie Recommendation
The Frozen Disappointment
This post contains spoilers for the movie Frozen. I wanted to like Frozen. I would like to start off by clarifying that I don't think Frozen is a bad movie. It has many truly wonderful aspects, and was more enjoyable to me than some previous Disney films. Both things I expected to have to tolerate, namely… Continue reading The Frozen Disappointment
Little Evil Movie Review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mnj-MXs1yVU Kersti Rating: 7/10 On Netflix! MVP: Not cinema gold, but worth watching. If you are a stepparent, or (like me) have a stepparent that you love, this movie is for you. What starts off as an amusing concept eventually becomes a surprisingly touching story about the unique challenges that new step children and step… Continue reading Little Evil Movie Review
Deathnote Movie Review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvxNaSIB_WI Kersti Rating: 3/10 On Netflix! MVP: Not recommended. Not a complete waste of time, but not a satisfying experience. It wasn't even bad enough that it was funny. It has that little smidgen of 'mediocre' that kept it from being downright crap. It has absolutely nothing to do with the source material, aside from… Continue reading Deathnote Movie Review
DROP EVERYTHING The Trailer for Ready Player One is Out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtwpjnuaVTE&feature=youtu.be From the moment I read this book, there has been no other sci-fi or fantasy world that I would rather live in than the one created by Earnest Cline in Ready Player One. Like this trailer says, Ready Player One is is the Holy Grail of Pop Culture. I am so excited for this… Continue reading DROP EVERYTHING The Trailer for Ready Player One is Out
