🦋 My Summertime Watchlist! 🍓

Hey everyone!Summer is right around the corner, and I've been dreaming of chill nights, good food, cold drinks, and just hanging out together watching movies that feel like summer! For me that sounds like a little adventure, a little romance, and a whole new journey!So, I put together a Summertime Watchlist to kick...

Dune: Part One | Patreon's Choice | Full Reaction

This was AWESOME. I felt like I was pulled into something ancient, vast, and hauntingly beautiful. I didn't really know what to expect going in, just that it was sci-fi and set way in the future. But what I found was a world that felt both alien and also deeply familiar. From the very beginning, the scale of everyt...

Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens | Full Reaction

I was very pleasantly surprised with this one! Going into it knowing the vibes may be different, the director is different, and it was TEN years after the epic-ness of Episode III, I was a bit hesitant. But I ended up falling in love with it for so many new and old reasons. What stood out to me the most was how the dyn...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E11: Colonial Day | Full Reaction

I didn't expect a political episode to grip me the way this one did. And being very honest, I don't love politics. In real life and in fiction. The scheming, the power plays, the backdoor deals. It feels exhausting and cynical. But somehow, BSG made it feel so deeply human, and I respect it for that. They didn&...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E10: The Hand of God | Full Reaction

For the first time in awhile, it felt like hope finally broke through that cloud of dread covering the fleet. Watching Adama take the offensive was such a huge shift and it was exciting (but also a bit nerve-wracking) to see these characters actively reach for something instead of just trying to survive. Lee's arc ...

Loki | S1 E6 | Full Reaction

What a finale. This episode left me with so many thoughts and feelings. Wonder, heartbreak for Loki, and a many more questions than answers. It was FULL of deep conversations that left my head spinning. Everything we've been building towards this entire season- the mystery of the TVA, Loki's personal growth, Sy...

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith | Full Reaction

This one was INTENSE. Emotionally, visually, and narratively. Of course I went into this film knowing Anakin's fall, but I wasn't prepared for how heavy it felt actually witnessing it all. There is pure tragedy at the heart of this story. Anakin's transformation into Darth Vader isn't as easy and sudden...

Mad Max: Fury Road | Movie Ticket Pick | Full Reaction

This was such a visceral, raw and deeply symbolic film! I knew it was going to be intense and chaotic based on the 'Thriller' and 'Action' tags but what I didn't expect was how powerful the storyline was. Survival. Freedom. Fighting to reclaim your voice in a world that strips it all away. It was a ...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E9: Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down | Full Reaction

This episode actually left me reeling a bit. Just when I thought I had a sense of who was trustworthy and what side everyone was on, another wrench got thrown in. The return of Ellen was disorienting in the best and worst ways. She is flirtatious, manipulative, and unsettlingly calm through all of the chaos. I'm de...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E8: Flesh and Bone | Full Reaction

(Episode 9 following shortly behind this upload a little later tonight!)This episode was psychologically and spiritually loaded. It honestly left me feeling a bit unsettled. It slowed everything down and trapped us in a room with Starbuck and Leoben. Truth, power, and identity were all brought to the interrogation tabl...

Loki | S1 E5 | Full Reaction

This episode was absolutely wild in the best way. It kind of felt like dropping into a dreamscape stitched together from chaos, loss, and eerie hope (if that makes sense lol). The Void was terrifying, but fascinating. Watching all of the Loki variants interact was both hilarious and kind of touching? They would be the ...

Pulp Fiction | Full Reaction

This film was like a jigsaw puzzle made of grit, rhythm, and style lol. Even though some parts were a little tough to sit through (mostly the language and the violence) it's impossible not to appreciate the artistry behind this one. Vince and Mia were my favorites. There was something about their scenes that felt s...

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones| Full Reaction

I have to say this was a very awesome step up from Episode I! I was honestly a little worried it would lean into the same cheesy tone as the last installment. But they really switched gears here, and it worked.The story deepened in a way that pulled me in emotionally again. Watching Anakin's inner conflict grow fel...

Loki | S1 E4 | Full Reaction

So, I know I mentioned to you all that this was a rewatch. But this episode made me very quickly realize that there was absolutely no way I had seen this episode before. I might need Sylvie to come tap into my deep hidden memories or something because WHATMobius pruned? Loki pruned?? The Timekeepers are fake???There&#3...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E7: Six Degrees of Separation | Full Reaction

I was just about to comment on how Six was dressed all conservatively for the first time ever because of her and Baltar's heated discussion on God. But then that scene turned into one of the most psychologically surreal episodes so far. She was actually there. In the Cylon flesh. Pointing fingers at Baltar for betr...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E6: Litmus | Full Reaction

This episode dragged the cat out of the bag. It gave us that chilling reminder that the enemy isn't just out there, it's among them. And just like Adama thought, fear immediately turned inward once the broadcast was made anyone could be sitting next to a Cylon and not know it. It was painful to watch the tribun...

🌻 This Week's Watchlist!

Hi everyone! Here's what's coming up this week: 🚀 Battlestar Galactica (S1 x E6 + E7)⌛ Loki (S1 x E4)✨ Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones🍿 Pulp Fiction Can't wait to dive into these with you all this week! Thank you so much for hanging out here and making this such a cozy place to be💛

The Last of Us | S2 E7 | Full Reaction

Watching Ellie carry the weight of grief, rage, and guilt this entire season has felt so deeply human. Through her arc with this search for revenge and Dina, I learned that survival isn't just about living, but about still being loved in spite of everything. Or maybe because of everything.This finale is one I didn&...

The Joy Luck Club | Movie Ticket Pick | Full Reaction

I think I'm still sitting with the beautiful weight of this and will be for a while. This film was so much more than I expected. it felt like being gently cracked open in the most honest, necessary way. It was beautiful, aching, and deeply moving. Coming from a broken family myself, there were moments that felt lik...

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace | Full Reaction

Jumping into this film right after the original trilogy felt like going back in time to when the galaxy was cleaner, brighter, and maybe even hopeful-er. And seeing young Anakin felt a bit painful knowing how his future turns out. He's so sweet and brave and just wants to help. And yet I couldn't stop thinking ...

Loki | S1 E3 | Full Reaction

I was really moved by the conversation of 'Love' and what it means to both Loki and Sylvie. It's so playful at first, layered with that classic Loki mischief, but then it dives deep into something raw and poetic. "Love is a dagger" isn't a perfect metaphor lol, but that's what makes it feel ...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E5 | Full Reaction

I had to immediately continue when this show hit me with the "To Be Continued..." 🤣 So here I am, straight out of Episode 4's emotional act of contrition. Seeing the fallout of Starbuck's confession about Zak, and how deeply it shook both Adama and Lee, showed so many true raw emotional colors from a...

Battlestar Galactica | S1 E4 | Full Reaction

It said "To Be Continued..." so I continued haha. Surprise on two episode this week even though I told you all I wouldn't start that until next week :) "Act of Contrition" surprised me. Not because of what happened (though the abrupt ending definitely left me shaken), but because of how quietly heav...

We also have two more movie tickets, so next week will be our last ticket watch! ✨ I have really enjoyed the awesome variety of movies you...

The Last of Us | S2 E6 | Full Reaction

First off, thank you all for your patience with this upload! After seeing how emotional it was, I'm so glad I decided not to record this while I was super exhausted last night. I don't think I stopped crying the entire episode. And not the slow tear kind, the bull-body, ugly cry kind. Shew.This episode felt a b...

Hey friends, just a quick update 💛

I wanted to let you know that tonight’s episode of The Last of Us will be coming out tomorrow afternoon instead of late tonight. My little one's cold turned into pneumonia late last week. She's on antibiotics and thankfully doing better now, but it's been a tough few days for all of us and I'm exhaust...
