Trying to sum up 2020 would be hard even for entertainment only. It was the year The New Mutants actually released but Black Widow didn’t. The year I became a Boba Fett fan.
But looking back over the books, films, and shows of the year there were some treats that made me smile well worth celebrating!
I find myself falling somewhere in the middle on Wonder Woman 1984. There was good in the film but I also think some of the choices could have been stronger and basically it needed a tighter script.
I try to organize my 5 points on Wonder Woman that are sticking in my head below and judge the movie on it’s merit and not potential.
SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS!
After 20 some years of doing everyone’s Christmas present wrapping terribly apparently (but I like to do it so…) I finally, finally figured out the secret to the perfect okay reasonably wrapped presents!
And it’s not tape!
It was like a Christmas epiphany that I should have seen sooner…
Me: I really need to be reasonable next year with my book buying and maybe not pay so much attention to upcoming new releases.
Also Me: Oh my God! There are so many books!!!! Is doing four posts on this unreasonable?
Spoilers for The Mandalorian Season 2!
I’m going to break this ramble down into 5 separate questions, thoughts, mini-rambles what have you to try to keep it from being endless!
So at least after Wanda ends while waiting for Loki I’m going to get a nice little dose of a Darkling Spring!
Netflix finally announced a Shadow and Bone date!
Spoilers for the season up to this point!
Both times The Mandalorian has taken his helmet off in this show I’ve feel like a scream of happiness that he did and also really guilty that I was looking at his face.
Good work show.
Let’s talk my finale predications! And I wouldn’t put any money on these because the last two episodes have completely surprised me but I’ll put them out there anyway.
I feel like my general mood has put me into a reading slump but this, this was a book that was a shining light so I did want to talk about it.
Even though I know nothing about Creature from the Black Lagoon I do love old Hollywood and its untold stories and Milicent Patrick was a perfect balm.
Wandavision released a new trailer Thursday and I was going to rave about it but then Taylor dropped a new CD (what is she doing to me this year?) and there was a great episode of Mando so I got a bit distracted.
But no way was I not going to chat about my number one most anticipated watch of next year.
Some huge (good) Star Wars news came out of the Disney Presentation today and I’m admittedly a lot more hopeful about certain things.
