Godzilla vs. Kong (2021)

I might’ve been a little starved for blockbusters the first time I saw Godzilla vs. Kong and rated it. In my defense, it was during the pandemic and the other movies I was able to see during lockdown were mostly disappointments. Reviewing the film again, I recognize that the human’s plot is undercooked while everything with the monsters is spectacular. Well, at least the movie knows where its priorities stand and considering what its audience wants to see…

When Godzilla suddenly attacks Apex Cybernetics’ Pensacola facility, conspiracy theorist Bernie Hayes (Brian Tyree Henry) becomes convinced they somehow provoked the titan. Madison Russell (Millie Bobby Brown) - an avid fan of his podcast - shares his suspicions. They rope her friend Josh (Julian Dennison) into investigating and confirm their fears aren't entirely unfounded. After the attack, Apex insists mankind needs to develop a weapon against Godzilla and asks Monarch to give them access to Kong. They believe the titan ape can lead them inside the vast caverns below our world to a power source formidable enough to take down the king of the monsters.

Though Godzilla’s name appears first in the title, this film is about Kong much more than the radioactive dinosaur. It’s a good choice, as the ape is resourceful, an underdog in this fight and intelligent enough to communicate with Monarch via sign language. Godzilla might’ve protected the Earth/humanity in the previous movies, but was it really a heroic character, or was the nuclear reptile just killing its rivals? Kong, on the other hand, has actual human friends. Even though the Iwis we met during Kong: Skull Island have been wiped out (seems like a missed opportunity), Kong still has a link to them in the form of Jia (Kaylee Hottle), a deaf-mute Iwi survivor adopted by Dr. Ilene Andrews (Rebecca Hall). Nonetheless, his situation gives him a very relatable quest: he wants to know if there is a new family for him out there.

One-half of the human's story fares fairly well. With the help of Apex Cybernetics, Dr. Ilene Andrews, along with Jia and hollow-earth scientist Nathan Lind (Alexander Skarsgård) follow Kong into this hidden world beneath our feet that houses all sorts of monsters and an ancient rivalry between Kong and Godzilla (seems wacky, but it does lead to some fun developments). These characters are following Kong on his journey so when the 8th wonder of the world is put in danger, they are too. The other humans, however, feel like they only appear to deliver exposition or to give us some familiar faces. You could easily re-jig this story to remove them.

But of course, you didn't come to this film for the human element. Yes, kaiju films are better when the "tiny" protagonists are compelling, but if there's one aspect of this movie director Adam Wingard had to get right, it was the Godzilla and Kong stuff. I'm happy to say you won't be disappointed. The Titan battles are varied, clearly shot, tense and action-packed. You get three rounds between Kong and Godzilla, with a clear winner at the end that will leave fans of either camp satisfied. I know a lot of purists will say a Godzilla film isn't the same without rubber suits, but this picture does so much with modern special effects. Varied locations, varied angles, moves no human could do, etc. That last brawl in the neon-lit Hong Kong will make you say "wow!".

There have been a lot of Godzilla films since the character appeared. Some have been dramatic, others comedic or somewhere in the middle with an emphasis on dumb fun. None have featured action scenes as good as the ones in Godzilla vs. Kong. Even if you only have a passing interest in the characters, the highlights are strong, strong enough to make you forgive the parts that could've been strengthened. It's not even a guilty pleasure; it's gargantuan fun. (On Blu-ray, March 27, 2024)

Black Widow (2021)

My rating: 6/10

I mean, it's a Marvel movie, so it has been meticulously and painstakingly engineered to be, y'know, pretty good I guess? Gotta say, though, those bits where the crude CGI approximation of Scarlett Johansson was doing flips on the crashing air fortress made me feel terrible for the poor sods in the Disney animation sweatshops.

 Transformers One. Movie Review.  

At varying levels of financial success, there are several ongoing franchises studios simply refusing to let rest that on paper would be better suited to the medium of animation especially if this is where they got their start in the first place. Chief among these would be Paramounts continued attempts to make their post-Bayformers ownership of the theatrical incarnation of the Transformers into…

I’d love to see this movie either by Mel Brooks or Taika Waititi, Eric Pearson, Craig Kyle and Christopher Yost.

I feel like posting for the really under rated shows and movies like santa clarita diet, my babysitters a vampire, and there’s an alien in the attic because i’ve been looking for any kind of posts on the characters for so long and on different platforms like wattpad AO3 and on here and there’s relatively nothing and it makes me so sad. These characters are so good but there’s no recognition.

Do you think either Eric or Donna have had sex with someone else?

Hi anon! Thanks for this ask.

Short answer: no.

Long answer:

Eric is the more simple side of the equation, so I'll start with him.

Although he was characterized as a typical, horny teenage boy throughout the show's run - and that included looking at porn and admitting to attraction to and fantasizing about other girls (like Miss October, that poster he has in his room of Farrah Fawcett, the Playboy magazines he enjoys, the X-rated film he saw with the guys, etc) - there was never any indication that Eric had sex or even got close to having sex with anyone else during the show. I firmly believe this is because he was so head-over-heels for Donna.

Now, Eric did date other women. He did have plenty of other women (and one guy!) who were interested in him. He did kiss and make-out with other women.

Kate (S1xE9 "Thanksgiving")

Buddy (S1xE11 "Eric's Buddy")

Shelley (S3xE15 "Donna's Panties")

Katie (S4xE4 "Hyde Gets The Girl")

Connie (S4xE7 "Uncomfortable Ball Stuff")

Emily (S4xE16 "Donna Dates A Kelso")

Leslie Cannon (S4xE22 "Eric's Corvette Caper")

Chloe the Slurpee Girl (S6xE20 "Squeezebox")

So he had the opportunity to do it if he wanted to. But he tells Donna in the season 6 episode "Squeezebox" that he didn't have sex with the Slurpee Girl and that he didn't even tell Donna about her because she didn't matter/wasn't serious to him. The whole time he and Donna were broken up, he never stopped loving her.

This tells me that Eric's never had sex with anyone else, because even when he and Donna are broken up she has an emotional hold over him. There are also indications that sex is meaningful to Eric, like it seems to be to Donna. Not something he views as casual, or something he would do with anyone. At the end of S4xE25 "Eric's False Alarm", he tells her that when he found out she was going to have sex with Casey, it felt like the day after they'd broken up all over again. It was heartbreaking for him, it refreshed his pain to think of her being that way with someone else. In season 5 when he and Hyde are sarcastically describing how sex works to Red after Kitty thinks she's pregnant, Eric starts out, "When a boy loves a girl - " (Hyde interjects to say he doesn't have to love her). Etc.

Now, onto Donna.

Did Donna have sex with Casey Kelso? I don't think so. Here's why.

In S4xE25 "Eric's False Alarm", she comes to the basement the morning after she and Casey had a motel room and Eric asks her if she and Casey did anything. She says no, they didn't have the chance. They spent all night in the parking lot with Leo and his hootie mamas, because someone kept pulling the fire alarm all night (it was Hyde). Now, could she and Casey have had sex between this episode and the season 4 finale, when he dumped her? Sure. It's technically possible.

But given how explicit this show tended to be about when characters had sex - I doubt it. It also makes sense that two episodes later, Casey is dumping her because he doesn't think she's worth the hassle - aka, she hasn't put out yet.

My headcanon is that Donna and Casey messed around/had a physical relationship, but no, they never had sex. After her talk with Eric in the basement at the end of "Eric's False Alarm", Donna reflects and realizes she's not ready to have sex with Casey yet.

I also don't believe Donna slept with Randy.

There is one episode in season 8 (and I am not going to bother to look up the episode and exact dialogue, because it's season 8 and who cares amirite) where Donna, Fez, and Jackie have an exchange. Jackie asks Donna if she and Randy have had sex yet. Donna gets defensive and doesn't answer the question. Fez says he thinks it will happen soon, because lately Donna has started shaving her legs all the way up to her thighs (ew - creepy Fez alert).

Once again - I think Donna did things with Randy and got close to having sex with him, but I don't think she actually did.

Similar to how she got close to moving in with him. She was forcing something that wasn't meant to be, accepting his offer to move in together because of her situation (she needed a place to live after Bob moved to Florida) and not because their relationship was that serious/ready for that next step. After she moves her stuff in and Randy gives her the key, she seems to take in what she's done and freaks out. She leaves, and guess where she runs to? The Forman's house. Eric.

I think Donna realized just in time that she was using Randy as a replacement for Eric - who she missed achingly. It wasn't fair to Randy and it wasn't going to make for a healthy relationship, so she ends it. Before they had sex - or moved in together.
