I saw Jurassic world Dominion in IMAX yesterday. One of my favorite dinosaurs made an appearance in the movie and I was super happy to see that! Therizinosaurus, aka, The ‘Freddy Krueger-saurus’.
As for the movie itself, it’s...alright. There were a lot of references to older movies/lore and all, which I appreciated. They also added some ‘more accurate’ depictions of dinosaurs, also appreciated.
But on its own merit, it was alright.
The plot was a little weak, but honestly, considering what happened in the last movie, I feel there’s very little you can do next without stepping on any toes. (Seeing as dinosaurs on the mainland could probably get old pretty fast, and hybrid dinos were used for the last two world movies so that would most likely be tired by that point.)
I think it was a pretty okay send-off, all things considered.
Though it did kind of feel like they cut out scenes, or shaved off things for the sake of the run time. There were still quite a few things I liked about the movie, I’d probably watch it again, tbh.
All in all...ehh... 5/10
I watched the first season of Hazbin Hotel and gave myself a few days to let it simmer in my head, and now I have thoughts.
(Note: I don't count anything Vivs has said on podcasts and livestreams as being canon, only what shows up in Hazbin/Helluva is canon to me, so please don't try to 'gotcha' me with anything from a ten-year-old livestream or something, lol.)
The opening scene mentioned that Adam and Lilith were equals and that Lilith left after Adam tried and failed to control her, right?
Well, as someone who was raised Christian, I'm assuming that might be a misdirect, given the bible's version of those events actually meshes a bit better with the vibes I'm getting from the story so far.
You see, in the bible, it's actually mentioned that god created Lilith to serve Adam, not that they were made as equals. God created Adam first, then Adam grew lonely and god created Lilith to be subservient to him. However, Lilith proved too independent and was replaced by Eve - who was literally 'made' more subservient due to being created through one of Adam's rib bones. (Side note: Adam eating ribs in the show is hilarious.) After Eve's creation, Lilith was basically kicked out of paradise and became a demon.
Now, I'm not saying that the story will/should make it exactly that, or that I expect it to be 'more accurate'. What I am saying is, I think at some point, we might end up getting a 'hey, god's a douche actually and enabled Adam like an entitled child and that's why he's such an asshole' angle to the story.
I think this fits mainly because there seems to be a 'heaven isn't all it's cracked up to be' vibe, as well as the fact that from what I've seen, the older testaments are the versions Viv is using mainly for inspiration and the older testaments, if you know anything about them, tend not to characterize god as being the most... 'merciful' sometimes. (Turning people into salt pillars, drowning the entire world, asking Abraham to sacrifice his son on a mountaintop, etc.)
With that in mind, I also feel like Adam's probably gonna come back. Not as an Angel, but as a demon. At the end of the last episode, we saw Sir Pentious return to life redeemed and in heaven, so it only makes sense in my mind that if it works one way, it must work the other way around, too.
I feel like it'd be a pretty cool plotline if Adam got pulled into Charlie's Hazbin Hotel to try getting redeemed only to end up actually becoming a better person through it. With Adam's redemption becoming a way for Charlie to prove she was right definitively to heaven and maybe having a narrative timer since Adam technically counts as a sinner and would likely be targeted by the exterminators, who would have no reason to believe this 'sinner' claiming to be Adam was actually the real Adam.

I hope you get the help you need, and that your daughter gets through this okay. I sadly don't have money to spare, but I'll answer here so other people can see in case they have funds for you.
I finally caught back up on The Dragon Prince, and I gotta say, I'm glad the newer seasons got rid of that odd and awkward pacing and writing issue that the fourth season had.
Also... (MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE DRAGON PRINCE SEASON 3, 5, & 6)
Not me crying while Viren sacrificed himself to cast the cinder heart spell. Damn-
Not me also crying during Aaravos' flashback with his daughter, oh my god. They really had to have him tell her to 'close her eyes', didn't they? (Also, I'm not the only one who suspects Leola had autism, right?)
I also didn't expect how much blood was in these two seasons. WOW. What age is this series geared towards again? TV-Y7? First Viren gets stabbed in the chest in season 3, now there's a bunch of blood spread in a ritualistic rite for dark magic? Yikes! (Also, in season 3, Soren stabbed Viren in the heart, right? Now Soren has Viren perform dark magic that requires a rune in his heart. Coincidence? I don't think so.)
Oh, but I love this series. I cannot believe that they actually got me to care about Viren, though.
I also gotta say, I love that none of my theories end up being right. I have so many every season, and then the story just keeps taking a left turn to somewhere completely different.
Anyway, now I'm just gonna sit in a box like a cat and wait for the next season.

Person: Hey, don't call that MLP character 'Derpy Hooves', that's insulting and ableist! Me: Oh, okay, what should I call her, then? Person: Call her 'Ditzy Doo'. :) Me: ...How is 'Ditzy Doo' less insulting than Derpy Hooves? Person: Well, 'Derpy' is ableist towards people with mental disabilities. Me: And 'Ditzy' is a misogynistic insult towards a woman perceived as stupid, especially if they're a blonde (Which Ditzy happens to also be). ...And you think naming a FEMALE CHARACTER 'Ditzy' is fine?
Can someone explain why people say this? How is 'Ditzy' less bad than 'Derpy'? /gen
I assure you, brother, the sun will shine on us again.
so can we start hunting down white liberals now or what
Oh look, back in the time when Marvel was willing to admit that the NYC invasion wasn't all Loki's doing and somebody else had sent him there.
Now however? Oh now they act like Loki chose to let go from the Bifrost thinking "hey, I feel like invading Midgard. How about NYC? I never liked the skyline".
Now they have one of their new characters say to Loki's face that he enjoyed it, that he was having the time of his life killing mortals and that he was doing it out of his own volition. Not a damn mention of Thanos.
Even in the What If series they have him in ep3 willing to invade Midgard for... reasons? And giving that goddamn speech about craving subjugation.
Marvel, please stop acting like Loki invaded NYC because he woke up one day feeling edgy. It's in your own damn canon.
