Netflix Dragon: August 2019

Yes I'm a bit late on this one. The listing for September will be up at the end of the month. What movies have you streamed lately?

Replicas

This film was a mess. One that in my opinion were three different movies smushed into one. Not very good but if you like watching bad movies then go right ahead. Or if you love seeing anything with Keanu Reeves. The subject of cloning was interesting but their take was way too ridiculous to believe.

She-Ra Season 3

We get to go on more adventures with Aurora/She-Ra and company. It was a pretty good season overall. But I felt a few creative choices made it fall from being a great one. Still, recommend for fans of the series. 

The Perfection

I have heard some praise this film and I agree there are some interesting storylines, visuals, and horror. But I was not a fan. There are ableism, racism and other undertones or outright obvious decisions that were a huge turn-off. Including making losing a limb seem like a punishment worse than death. People are actually born with missing limbs. It's not just via attacks or accidents. Making it look like there's no future for individuals like that is very damaging. I have seen films tackle that topic carefully but this was not one of them. I won't even go into a white student targeting a black student she met a child. The racism is nauseous, more so when the film tries to make it seem okay. Just no, and then having a white majority cast but somehow the two biggest victims (aside from the white female protagonist) in the film are black and Asian? Yeah...bye. 

Once Upon A Time Season 7

I was not a fan of the new direction that Season 7 took. But the storyline eventually grew on me enough to find it a decent conclusion. Might have been wiser to try something else since it ended up being the final season. Feel free to check it out if you feel the urge. 

Rocko's Modern Life: Static Cling

I was not a huge fan of this series and only saw some episodes in the past. The movie was a nice time and they covered some important issues. But seems more for those with knowledge of this series.

Invader Zim: Enter The Florpus

This was an absolute masterpiece. Dib and Zim match wits again in a movie deserving of Invader Zim fandom hype and dedication. A must watch and epic movie conclusion to the series.

Other Shows/Movies:

Zootopia: Had a great time rewatching this film.

Let's Be Evil: A decent mind-bending sci-fi film with Children of the Corn vibes.

The Smurfs: Rewatching these old cartoon episodes are interesting, to say the least. Gargamel was even creepier than I thought.

Black Mirror: There were a few leftover episodes from previous seasons I had missed out on.

Rurouni Kenshin, The Bye-Bye Man, Sextuplet, When the Bough Breaks, Tau, Don't Watch This,  Sing.

Thanks for stopping by.
