Eleven years ago, I made my first video discussing Doctor Who and the Auton Invasion. And I’m still making videos about Doctor Who novelizations!

Sooooooo...... 2022
2022 was...... a year.
A year where it felt like nothing and everything happened all at once! At least for me.
I feel like my daily productivity suffered the most. Between how demanding my job can be, the stresses in my home life that popped up throughout the year, not to mention getting COVID after avoiding it for so long back in August (0/10 would not recommend), things just kept coming up and even repetition became exhausting. To the point that I was only able to make 13 Let’s Talk About reviews this year. Which I think is an all time low!
But in a way, all of that, was the marathon to get to the very special moments I had throughout the year. The most significant being, getting to meet up with online friends. Before this year, I’d only managed to meet two of my friends in person. Now, I think that number is at a dozen! It’s wild to me that I even have that many friends, but the fact that I took the chances and had the ability to see these people face to face, to talk and laugh and hug for as long as was appropriate because we’re still in a pandemic (mask up guys), was truly special in a way I treasure.
Even when those connection were just over the world wide web, as they have been since Day 1, they would always brighten my day. I’d be eager to check my notifications when I got home to see if someone posted something, or wanted to share something they thought I’d like. I may not have posted much myself (I’ll work on that), but whether here on Tumblr, Youtube, Discord or yes, even Twitter, it felt good, as it always has, to see what the people I care about are up to, and maybe exchange some words on what’s new. Not to mention you guys would motivate me a lot to work on reviews, which was very helpful!
Also my Mom and I started watching the Great British baking Show and have binged pretty much all of that this year. Which was a fun comfort for sure!
It’s now 2023. The year I’m going to turn 30. Which is.... frankly terrifying to me.
But you know what? As 2022 was wrapping up, I was feeling a bit more optimistic about it. Because it’s when I looked back on the good times I had with my family, the experiences I got to have after two years of lockdown, and friends old and new who I’ve shared many good times with, I realize that there’s always something to look forward to. Even if you feel like you’re behind, you can catch up.
Whatever happens, I hope like this year, I have more experiences where I push myself a bit more. To get out there, to make connections, and to form wonderful memories I’ll look back on everyday. Because when I did that during 2022..... it felt pretty damn good.
I know I’ve written sappy posts like this before. Where I thank friends like @orangeoctopi7 @amaranthbirate @marvelandponder @blackscarabfilmz and @jinxproductions (welcome to Tumblr Jinx, there is no escape) for being constant presences of fun, laughs, encouragement and friendship. But know that no matter how many times I say it... I mean it. Every year that passes, is a year where I realize how truly lucky I am to have you all.
To borrow a phrase from one of my dear friends. I guess what I’m really trying to say is....
I’m really happy you’re here.
Here’s to 2023.

blackscarabfilmz replied to your post “Do you have an account on TV Tropes?”
Ooh, this seems like that dude that was asking around because he's banned and i think he wants whoever he asks to tell the tv tropes mods to answer his emails. https://beckyhop.tumblr.com/post/188036171369/attention-if-you-get-an-anonymous-message-from
Ah okay. Well as it stands I can’t help them anyway so rip to that

4, 9, 21 for the Film Ask Game
4.) A film you could watch on repeat for the rest of your life? Clue!! Hands down!
9.) The most aesthetically pleasing movie you’ve ever watched? uhhh... good question. the only one coming to my mind is the Conjuring. i thought that was shot very aesthetically pleasing. maybe also Velvet Buzzsaw
21.) A film with an amazing soundtrack? Guardians vol. 1 & 2

Today was Fun Hat Day at work. As a hat guy, I have no shortage of choices. Choosing the best one was elementary, my dear Watsons.

The William E. Butterworth books are sometimes referred to as the “Goes To Books” because the titles are all M*A*S*H goes to (city name). It just so happens that ‘(character) goes to’ is also used by fanfic writers when writing post-cannon works. You understand my confusion.
Also, the plot of those books is somewhat similar to what you described except with Trapper and Henry Blake in place of B.J.
If you want a more in depth review I recommend YouTuber BlackScarabFilmZ video on this topic
"BJ goes to Maine" what about Hawkeye goes to Europe. Hawkeye has a miserable time in Paris. Hawkeye in the 60s British scene as an alternate universe Withnail. BJ goes to find Hawkeye who's disappeared somewhere in Italy. Hawkeye miserable 60s art black and white film protagonist when.

6, 17, 21 for the Film Ask Game
6: A film you wish you hadn't watched?
That's a tough one. Most of the time even if I don't like a movie I'm at least glad I gave it a shot. Recently I did watch Pieces of a Woman, and man that was, not fun. It's not a bad movie by any stretch it was just not enjoyable for me to watch until like the last, 10 minutes. So probably that.
17: Which cinematic universe would you like to live in?
I'd go for the obvious answer of the MCU because it's the one I'm most invested in, but if WB continues with their plans to make a cinematic universe for the Hanna-Barbera characters, absolutely that one!
21: A film with an amazing soundtrack?
So many! I am such a huge fan of musicals. But for the soundtrack, I'd probably go with Mary Poppins Returns off the top of my head. For the reason that it's a soundtrack without a single song that I skip. Most soundtracks have at least one song you skip, but for me, not that one!

Mom: Are you watching Mystery Science Theater 3000?
Twincityhacker: ...Sorta? *is actually waching BlackScarabFilmZ review Angel Armor: Cassandra Conflict*
She was across the room, so she was going off the sound and not the visuals - so it's a little less of a streech. And since MST3K is definately in the DNA of the style of Internet Review show, she's not exactly wrong?
But there is an upside! Congrats, all internet reviwers, you are all honorary MST3K hosts in my house. = )
