Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024)
classic storytelling
This movie has a coming of age feel. Stong family values. Movie also explores parent and child relationships as well as friendships, family legacy, leaving behind a legacy as you get older , identity and individualism vs community/family. Empire reminds me of 80s and 90s movies. For a deeper look at these themes see Popcorn Theologys review of the film. Movie did not have as many funny jokes as Afterlife or the 84 movies, in my opinion . Acting was good. Action was good. Practical effects were awesome! See Adam Savages videos. Some takeaways: take advice from people who know and care about you. Don't write off your family. Don't communicate with occult.
Batman: The Doom That Came to Gotham (2023)
a more consistent Batman story than The Batman
An interesting take on Batman and his universe. The setting ( time period) was interesting. The interpretation of the villains was well done. But I would have wanted to see more batman in 1920s. Would have wanted to see Catwoman and Constantine. Story kept the core of what makes Batman/Bruce a hero. Story was easy to follow and kept me entertained. It did not seem predictable as other Batman stories are sometimes. Animation was well done and should age well unlike CGI and live action. I got the comicbook soon after watching the movie because I wanted to see more of the story and compare with the movie. Definitely will rewatch.
Free Birds (2013)
Fun, entertaining, different, funny, enjoyable, original plot.
Fun, entertaining, different, funny, enjoyable, original plot. Good voice acting. Works for Thanksgiving. Movie does not take itself too seriously. Fun cultural references.
If you're wondering how time travel works And other science facts Then repeat to yourself "It's just a movie I should really just relax" . Works as an annual turkey day movie to watch with family or without them. Produced by the guy from Shrek. Who doesn't want to watch time traveling birds! References to Bill And Ted. Movie does not try to hard. Watch the end credits. Would like to see a sequel. Now I want pizza for Thanksgiving!
The Chosen (2017)
great show, very very well done!!!!
Very different from other "jesus" shows! In a good way! Good actors, story, scenes!
Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020)
what the live action movie should have been!
Good story, full of action. Best to watch all the previous films but it can stand alone also.
Tolkien (2019)
wonderful summary of Tolkien's life
Film sums up his youth and ends at the beginning of his books
God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness (2018)

There is this idea that movies have to be entertaining, fun, and Academy Award level or they get dismissed (e.g., The 15:17 to Paris). This movie along with the others in the series, in my opinion, is not meant to be those things but meant to inspire discussion on truth, morality, government, religion through stories that are based on real events and current events.
