It: welcome to Darry

ok first there are so many things I could say about this show I’m going to rewatch it tonight to see things that I missed. I know I missed a couple turtle references (ifykyk) I’m not going to spoil the whole thing but there are spoilers so mmtch. personally, I think the coolest character right now is dick Halloran he has a weird name, but he is special he has like a 6th sense for seeking the supernatural and his character has also show to be hinted as an empath. he can also dream walk we see this when he dreams walks into” it’s ” layer.

 

this show started with welcome to Derry is set in the 1960’s it explores the earliest encounters with the entity called it the series is a prequel to the movies diving deep into the history of Derry and the origins of penne wises terror. it follows a group of kids as they face the horrors of Derry, revealing dark secrets and the curse that haunts the town.

my favorite scene has to be where the girls who heard matts voice first friends died in a movie theater they were quick to blame the black owner who was nowhere near the scene but not the white owner who has keys and hates kids sneaking in. I feel like the show doesn’t only develop inside fears but also physical ones. WE see this especially when a new black family moved into town and were looked at strange by everyone although everyone claims to not be racist it is the 1960’s… I was also researching the entity Maturin I believe it to be a known theory that he blesses some kids with the shining which is what I think dick has but it’s too early to be sure he could be involved with other deity’s as we know so far it’s only a couple people able to see/have the shining  the native American girl, dick , and possibly one of the boys uncle who makes deals with evil spirits.  and maybe since the military man doesn’t have any fear he could be key to defeating it? knowing feeds of fear maybe he could defeat him?? also what would happen if hypothetically someone gave the kids a gun and said it was a special gun meant to kil “it” would it work since technically they know they can kill it now I mean they have to believe there not afraid to kill it in the movies so maybe that theory is the same and that’s possibly why they’re going to get dick to kill it.

daybreak

when I first watched this show, I was honestly half asleep but i locked in quickly I really don’t know why they canceled this show it was honestly so good especially with the major plot twist every episode had you on the edge of your seat 24/7 I would recommend this show to anyone above the age of 12. it has sum explicit scenes. honestly once you watch it you understand the reason for each of their actions in this post-apocalyptic world.  I knew it was about zombies from the cover page on Netflix but when I watched it reminded me that every show, book, movie is a whole world, and everything could have a story to it.

moonlight

movie overview

moonlight is an amazing coming-of-age story that follows a young man Chiron  through childhood, adolescence, and early adulthood. the film explores his journey with his identity, sexuality, abuse and self-discovery as he navigates the challenges of growing up in what’s considered the ghetto Miami neighborhood. “moonlight” is a poetic-type movie with lots of emotional depth, avoiding stereotypical black prejudices and offering an 1st person look into chrions life showing not just his skin but his sin, love, and family. I believe moonlight had a major impact on the black community specifically black boys and men moonlight offers rare and much needed representation of black male vulnerability and emotional complexity. Moonlight challenges traditional stereotypes of black masculinity like the need to be “gangster” or “hood” ad “homophobic”.  I know a lot of people found this movie deeply moving and relatable to their experiences growing up. Hopefully it sparked conversations about how most aren’t taught empathy and acceptance and self love within the black community. now let’s talk about Chiron the main character in the movie Chiron is bullied a lot leading to his self confidence issues and his problems at home are even worse he’s taking care of his addict mother and struggling to keep going. when he gets older, he tries to connect back with his “long lost love”. Their reunion is filled with unspoken words and confused feelings not knowing who they are or what they want.

my personal thoughts

moonlight was a cool, emotional movie to watch I see why many people recommended it. moonlight is down to earth and an accurate depiction of what life is like for many people. I highly recommend watching it inspired a lot of creativity in my stories also for certain characters. it’s definitely not a childhood memory type of show but it does give a great outlook on certain topics. (I talk about this movie a lot!!)

 

random questions for your brainnnnnn!!!!!!!!

have you ever experienced a feeling similar to the main characters?  

how does being in love affect you?

if you could ask a past love a question, what would it be?

how do you react when face with pressure?

if you could make a poem based off this movie what would the first line be?

in a world where what seems normal to you is seen as unnormal to other how would you navigate your life? what steps would you take to hide it or show off your “normalness”? how does it relate to the life your currently live?

“Earth To Echo”

Image result for echo movie 2014

warning spoilerss!!!!!!

 

 

This movie is an absolute hidden gem not a lot of people watched and if you didn’t, I highly recommend it. This coming-of-age movie shows the value of friendship, adversity, hardship, and the importance of not backing down to “bullies”. echo brings the 3 main characters together even more than they already were although this journey couldn’t keep them together in the end, they became brothers for life.  you will find earth to echo similar to E.T it’s meant to appeal to crowds like those. it’s a movie for people who believe in the power of friendship and magic. 

 

 

The journey starts with one of the main characters “tuck” recording an anomaly happening in the neighborhood. Everyone who lives on the street devices has been messing up and the government is paying people to hand the devices over: There’s also been construction happening a new highway is being built. tuck finds this weird, so he records the interaction. the friends discover that the devices show a map in the middle of the desert and decide to investigate leading down a series of events, and eventually to them finding “echo”.  after making their way through the desert the groups determination was questionable. the harsh sun beat down on them as they went through the desert. their water supply drained fast. just when their spirits began to give up a small gas station appeared seeming from nowhere. overjoyed they rushed towards it. seeking refuge from the relentless heat. inside they found an old map, which they happily examined. hoping to find a shortcut to echos next coordinates. munch tinkering with the gas pumps got just enough fuel for their bikes. Alex was cautious and scanned the area to see if anyone were following them. As they work with one another their bond deepens and, each playing a crucial role to their mission. with renewed energy and a clear sense of direction they head towards the coordinated with their revved-up bikes. ready to face whatever comes their way per their commitment to echo.

 

I’m not going to do a whole review explaining everything that happened because no one likes spoilers for real. I do have a couple questions though if you and your friends found an alien robot thingy how would y’all react? what would y’all do next? if you and your friends were being split up, what lengths would you go to avoid separation?

I saw the tv glow

This may not be a childhood movie/show, but this 2024 film is amazing. I watched it randomly and I wasn’t disappointed it may be confusing at first to some. I feel if it wasn’t rushed it could be so much better but maybe the vague sense of detail is what makes it great?  I honestly was expecting a cheesy horror movie. “I saw the tv glow” has a great storyline and it leaves it up to the viewer to interpret what certain scenes mean. I honestly like thought-provoking movies. It prioritizes atmosphere and emotions over plot. long after the credits it will still have you thinking about it.

The movie starts with a young middle schooler being introduced to a tv show/book “the pink opaque” by an older girl with a deep love for the show. then they plan to watch the show together by having the young boy pretend he is at a friend’s house for a sleepover. the pink opaque is about 2 girls fighting supernatural beings and they have matching tattoos. they continue this for 2 years until Maddy (older girl) wants to run away with Owen (main character) after her friend leaves her and she becomes depressed. Owen unable to go through with it leaves the girls house crying in tears. This traumatizes and leaves Owen unable to separate tv from reality.

I’m not going to spoil the whole entire movie it’s hard to explain without giving the whole plot away at once.

The pink opaque shows escapism and the struggle with identity; It shows the comfort of not living in reality, but it also shows the horrible downsides it brings. It shows that living in the fantasy world of your favorite tv shows can be fun, but it hinders personal growths and makes it hard for you to live in society. the pink opaque also touches on fear of having an uncertain future and struggling with belonging. The main dilemma it shows is his struggles with sexuality (spoiler incoming) in one scene he can be seen trying on a dress with Maddy and thinking he is a female character from the pink opaque. Maddy and Owens characters grapple with feelings of being different and not fitting into traditional societal expectations.

 

do you have a movie/show you like to watch with your friends?

do you consider yourself normal?

have you ever been distant from reality because of a book or tv show?

bismuth

in season 3 ep 24 of steven universe steven travels inside lion and finds bismuth- as masculine blacksmith ready to lay her life down for the revolution. now this is why I don’t like her character.

 

 

bismuth character was focused on war and destruction, or she was rather blinded by it, I guess. she wanted to do whatever it took to kill the diamonds even if that meant killing other gems and of course rose happily agreed but deep-down rose knew she couldn’t let her do that because Suprise she was a diamond herself. killing one diamond would not be enough they needed to kill all of them. the writers made it seem as if that was bismuth whole character was made to be this bloodthirsty monster. she even built breaking point to shatter the diamonds.  bismuth attacked steven believing it was rose attempting to stop her mission once more, leading to her being bubbled, fortunately in the episode “made of honor” she gets unbubbled and talked to properly where steven explains rose quarts = pink diamond. honestly, they should’ve bought back other gems and let us hear their “war” stories too.

 

 

bismuth was and probably still is suffering from ptsd from the war. now she has a family willing to fight for her as she will for them. I don’t like how her character is shown in the show, but the episode overall was in my opinion meant to represent ptsd in people who go to wars, or people who are still grieving. she now resided in little home world as a blacksmith; she and many other characters might appear in lar’s new show.

steven universe: the movie

steven universe is a show that I personally watched a lot growing up. I can’t really do a review on the show as a whole, but I could do individual episodes. Ever steven universe episode teaches a new lesson and I’m pretty sure that’s why I love it. It teaches you how to be emotionally intelligent whilst also tackling things like self-confidence issues, attachment issues, how to grieve, and diversity. what character do you relate to the most in steven universe?

also sorry for it being kind of out of order. and some events in the story are missing. 

 

 

steven universe the movie starts off with steven running through beach city enjoying life. He feels free from his mother’s actions finally and can now start to heal himself and be “human”. Unfortunately for him as the song ends suddenly garnet gets a vison from the future and its terrifying unexpected something they could never prepare for. A giant drill wins king of the hill against the small mountain and plants itself inside the earth. On top of the drill is spinel a gem that once served as pink diamonds version of a court jester, she played for centuries with pink. unfortunately, pink grew tired of the constant games she became annoyed with happy little spinel. one day as they played in the garden pink told spinel to stay in one spot and wait for her to come back. spinel obeyed happily thinking it was all a game she waited and waited for years until finally seeing steven on her screen welcoming gems. she grew angry and instead of happiness filling her heart anger did and her heart became black she morphed into a shell of her former self and plotted for revenge. spinel made quick work of the diamonds and tried steven, but it didn’t work unfortunately though he didn’t leave unscratched. the weapon she used reverted all gems back to their original selves’ pre-pink diamond. garnet became red ruby and sapphire; pearl reverted back to her base self-awaiting orders from “Greg”, Amathyst reverted back to her kindergarten self-shy and confused. They all became what they were before rose. spinel herself got hit by the rejuvenator and became her base model also. she was happy and excited and got on stevens nerves quite a bit. steven was falling apart the rejuvenator worked in a different way for him. steven and Greg tries Mutiple attempts at putting the gems back together for most of the movie and he succeeds in except with garnet. unfortunately, spinel has to be reverted back to fix the damage caused by the drill. All day spinel tries to help and play with steven but unfortunately get declined at every turn. the rejections forced her to turn back into “maniac” spinel. She leaves to the garden where her and rose once played saddened. steven follows behind her where she tells him her origin story and how rose abandoned her. Steven convinces her to come back because he’s not rose, and things are different, and she agrees. once back she stops the drill but unfortunately see’s steven with the rejuvenator and thinks he’s going to reset her, paranoid she fights him and takes Greg hostage, this forced garnet to remember, and she fused back into herself. Shes beaten by the crystal gems again and retreats to the top of the rejuvenator steven follows and is tries to convince her again causing them to fight more. until spinel realizes she lost her reason to fight after one of stevens speeches. the drill explodes and steven now having his powers restored traps spinel in a bubble to protect her. spinel trust steven after this and gets convinced she must leave earth to atone for the damage she has done. Then the diamonds arrive to try and get steven to stay with them but steven reasons with them and has spinel take his place as she would be of more use to them. thus, leaving spinel with the friends he promised and everything’s alright.

 

this story is peak ngl it sets steven up to have all the emotional outburst he does leading to him discovering more powers in steven universe future. 

would you like to see stevens other powers? or would you like to see steven try and have a normal life?

 

Toy story

Hello! and welcome to my blog my name is Kemarrion Galmore and I will be reviewing movies , tv shows and books. since I was young I always adored storytelling no matter what form it was in and now were going to be reviewing the details and meaning of the storytelling.

As they make their way through the world facing many hardships and challenges like toy-killing Sid. they learn to eventually understand each other and recognize one another’s strengths. the overall message developed in toy story is the importance of friendship. Woody learns to shared Andy’s affection whilst buzz learns too come to terms with his identity as just a toy. this story reminds us that value lies in not just being the favorite, But in the relationships we created with people and they joy it brings.
