hopefully we’re nearing the end of the recycled and rebooted era. There aren’t that many movies coming out lately that I’ve been super excited about, but funny enough it’s the animated movies that have been the ones I’ve enjoyed the most. They’re getting pretty creative with art styles and taking a few more risks compared to live action options.

Apart from Spiderverse 1 and 2, we’ve also seen great animated movies like Mitchells vs the Machines, Nimona, Puss in Boots the last wish, wolf walkers, and the Mario movie was more fun than most live action films I’ve seen lately. I liked Guardians of the Galaxy vol 3, but other than that I can’t say I’ve been really excited or interested in any other live action movie in a while.

I'm actually very happy with the A24 releases especially 'Everything Everywhere All at Once' for creativity and unique story telling. The fact that they are killing it in awards and cult favorites gives me hope that maybe we can just say "fuck the big studios" and put talent into smaller budget companies and get good stuff out that people will take chances on.
