Restless Tonight -Reviews and Rants

I'm just going to cut to the chase: there is no fucking way that this was Andy's favorite movie back in 1995. I think that's what really bothers me about Lightyear . It's not   going to light a spark in a kid's heart to that degree. Why? Because it's so. damn. depressing. I wouldn't even call it fun, and aren't kids movies usually supposed to be fun, lighthearted, with a side of life lesson tossed in? Lightyear feels like one big life lesson. A movie for adults, basically. I am not here to be an adult. Alright, now that I've properly jumped the gun, I can get started. You ever watch Toy Story ? Toy Story 2 ? Toy Story 3 ? Toy Story 4 ? Do you remember Buzz Lightyear? Love him! Well this is his origin movie, the movie that launched a million action figures. Apparently. It feels completely disconnected from that series, but sure, let's go with it. Buzz and his crew land on a scary, monster-ridden planet (mmm, tentacles!). Their escape goes awry, le

Oh boy. You know I'm a sucker for all things Austen. I will watch any stupid adaptation that's thrown my way, even when it's obvious that it can't live up to previous versions. This latest movie is no exception, and I can already guarantee you that it won't be faithful enough to the source material (one of my favorite Austen novels!). Characterizations are off, for one. Dakota Johnson's portrayal already looks too confident for a meek Anne Elliot, who only begins to find herself towards the end of the story. There is, in fact, very notable animosity coming from Wentworth in the book and in other films, because this ho broke his damn heart! But while this trailer promises to be unfaithful, I'm still going to watch it, and I'll probably enjoy it, because I'm lame.
