Stacy's Blog Has Got It Going On

Wow, did we have some bad movies this year.  Normally, when I do my Worst Movies of the Year list, it's mostly horror movies, and that's still true this year, but we also got an abnormally high amount of superhero movies on the list.  From Best to Worst, here is my list! #10. The Watchers I'll give The Watchers points for creativity.  It follows a group of people who get trapped in a strange room in the middle of the woods and are watched by mysterious creatures at night.  That's a great premise!  It has a few interesting moments and great cinematography, but the movie has some serious pacing issues.  The 2nd act isn't as interesting as it could have been and the 3rd act is genuinely terrible.  Plus the characters are very stupid. #9. Venom: The Last Dance I've been pretty mixed on the Venom series.  I didn't like the first movie, but the 2nd is easily my favorite movie of the Sony Spider-Man villain-verse or whatever it's called.  This one i...

 "You don't see me saying anything crazy about Abed and Troy's weird, little relationship." -Shirley Bennett "Romantic Expressionism" picks up with Jeff (Joel McHale) and Britta (Gillian Jacobs) spotting Annie (Alison Brie) and Vaughn (Eric Christian Olsen) flirting with each other.  Later, Annie asks for Britta's blessing to date Vaughn and reveals that she has given up on ever dating Troy (Donald Glover) because he seems more interested in Abed (Danny Pudi) than anyone else.  Britta gives Annie her blessing, which angers Jeff, who says creepier and creepier guys will now see Annie as an option.  Later, Star-burns (Dino Stamatopoulos) mentions to them that he has the hots for Annie, which resolves Jeff and Britta to break up Annie and Vaughn to set her up with Troy instead. Jeff and Britta tell Troy that Annie is in love with him and using Vaughn to make him jealous.  Troy attempts to flirt with Annie in front of Vaughn.  Annie admits that she used to h...

We've reached the end of 2024 and it's time for me to rank my Top 10 Movies of the year!  There were a lot of great movies this year and it was tough to cut some movies from my Top 10.  And the Top 3 are all absolute bangers with 1st place being one of the best cinematic experiences I've ever had.  Let's take a look! #10: Longlegs Longlegs made me think a lot of Silence of the Lambs  combined with The X-Files. This is a police procedural following FBI agents in the pursuit of a serial killer.  Pretty straightforward on paper, but this is a movie that goes off the rails with its story and a fantastic performance from Nicolas Cage.  The direction and cinematography are both fantastic, but I do think the movie missed a few opportunities to get even scarier. #9. Lisa Frankenstein A love story between a teenage girl and the corpse she brings back to life.  I think I definitely liked this movie more than most people.  It's a total vibe movie that I real...
