The Bureau of Magical Things

The Bureau of Magical Things: A Fun Suprise

0

By Brandon Scott on May 31st, 2023

Even after watching the first three episodes, The Bureau of Magical Things feels like a show that doesn’t exist. A hypothetical series a nerdy character might watch in the background of a scene. I’ve heard no one discuss The Bureau of Magical Things, reference it, or allude to it anywhere online in critic circles, yet it has all the trappings of a show that people make video essays about.

The Cellar Letters: A Badly Paced Horror

0

By Brandon Scott on May 24th, 2023

The Cellar Letters is the first podcast I’m reviewing that I didn’t like. Its first few episodes have many problems that ejected me from the narrative. Because of limited review time and well over forty episodes, I’ll concede the podcast may leverage its ideas later to great effect, but the initial impressions were medium to bad.

Circle

It Came From The Archives! “Circle: An Unfocused Death Game Movie”

0

By Brandon Scott on May 10th, 2023

To call Circle an intense film is to undersell it. Utilizing almost only a single location, this death game story touches upon politics, human nature, mercy, and bigotry. It uses a very simple premise and plays it straight and is one of the best-paced films I’ve seen in a long time.

Nope

Nope Is One Of The Best Horror Movies

0

By Brandon Scott on Apr 26th, 2023

I hope it’s clear how good I think Nope is by me actively not wanting to spoil anything. Usually, I keep these reviews as vague as possible about plot points, but I must be even more careful with this one.

Resistance

Star Wars Resistance: The Worst Star Wars Show

0

By Brandon Scott on Apr 19th, 2023

I don’t blame you if you’ve never heard of Star Wars Resistance. It’s more obscure; I only discovered it by searching through the vast swath of Star Wars content on Disney+. It’s the only series I know of that deals with anything related to the events of the newest trilogy (at time of writing) and seems the closest to a traditional children’s show.

The Owl House

The Amazing Ending of The Owl House

0

By Brandon Scott on Apr 17th, 2023

So, here we are: The end of The Owl House. Perhaps my all-time favorite animated series. I wish the third season had been more, had been an actual season, but this is the next best thing.

The Book of Boba Fett

The Book of Boba Fett: A Different Star Wars Story

0

By Brandon Scott on Apr 12th, 2023

The Book of Boba Fett seemed like an outlier when I considered it for review. A strange tangent for the Star Wars universe to explore. In the grand scheme of the current version of the universe (I’m sure the no-longer-canon books had him a ton), Boba Fett is a blip.

Horrid

It Came From The Archives! “Horrid Review: The Horrors Of Extreme Feelings”

0

By Brandon Scott on Apr 5th, 2023

Horrid is a book about emotions more than anything else. Its plot, its ending, its momentum are all in service of getting across big emotional moments.

Star Wars Rebels

Star Wars Rebels: Mostly Tropey Fun

0

By Brandon Scott on Mar 29th, 2023

Star Wars Rebels mostly escaped my radar during its 2014-2018 run, but it was a positive surprise to explore now. Despite feeling like this franchise is now racing towards oversaturation (if it has not already reached it), Star Wars television shows have—for apparently a long time—been mostly solid little pieces of media.

Kenobi

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Nostalgic But Predictable

0

By Brandon Scott on Mar 27th, 2023

Obi-Wan Kenobi is a show hard to review as its own thing. While lately a good chunk of Star Wars is an act of accounting for missing parts in the timeline and universe, Kenobi has especially little space to experiment—its plot is so heavily stuck by continuity that there are practically no surprises to be had. We know who can and cannot die in any scene; even people who don’t know Star Wars well will have a general idea of what will happen in this plot.

Foundation: Almost-Phenomenal Science Fiction

0

By Brandon Scott on Mar 22nd, 2023

To review Foundation, I must reveal my lack of foreknowledge. I’ve not read the books; I’ve heard amazing things and that they’re a seminal work of science fiction, but never ventured there myself. I probably should now: if they’re better than this show, they’re probably incredible.

Andor

Andor: A Strong New Era For Star Wars

0

By Brandon Scott on Mar 20th, 2023

Perhaps the most notable thing about Andor is how immediately it establishes itself as different from the usual Star Wars fare. What little I’ve seen of more recent Mandalorian projects suggests this isn’t an isolated affair, but it is to me.
