Code 8: Part II (2024)
Why should anyone care about these characters?
Great special effects, for a realism trying cgi movie. But, the constant question I found asking is, if almost every decision made by every character is the wrong one, and the 2 main characters screw up every chance, why do I care what they do? Found the gang leader was actually likable, he talked to everyone, made his intentions clear, and even when the calelion character screws up tries to let him save some face. But, the brothers plan is to rob the head honco, he leaves his backpack, forgets to zip up the money bag, makes noise everywhere, and generally is a terrible character to try to relate to outside of taking care of his sister. The sister, after waiting for 2hrs, does not use a phone and decides to go outside first thing, I'm not going to even get into her messing with the K9 unit right off the bat (why didn't that flag through the handler immediately). She impulsive, mean, and demonstrates 0 want to try to overall help the situation. I know the Cardinal rule is, don't put a kid in a movie for any reason outside of the kid drives the movie, but this is the point where the kid drives the movie, and I could care less about the kid. This character makes elle from last of us seem like a genius comedian, and I get it a sad movie. But, that doesn't mean all the characters have to be sad beaten people. If you've been in a sad life place you learn pretty quick that being upset and mad all the time only alienates people. They don't need or want to care about you, and the same is true for this movie. First one was pretty good, this not so much, but I hope they get it better with the 3rd if they make it.
Bee and PuppyCat (2013)
If you are not high then you are not watching this show how it was designed
Couple of things: the soundtrack is a very mellow synth retro dreamscape, for every decision that Bee or cat makes it is always, ALWAYS not what you expect, every character is a mess, and all characters will do something wierd and the most random time. For plot points finding out the stories of the characters is awesome for revels and in ways you wouldn't expect their plot growth is always a good start does some off topic adventure and then comes back to right after you for&gotten about it, without a doubt the creators and writing staff know what are doing and what the kids like. Very Steven universe with the filler episodes, and adventure time with the non-plot ones, but that is the point with this show. Random silly randomness that looks, and sounds cool. If you are not high you will not like this show to the level that it deserves. Which it is brilliant at. (Typed on POS phone after bingeing 1st season)
