Fear Street: 1666 (2021)
I did it! I actually took the time to reread The Fear Street Saga books! And it’s a good thing I did, because the parallels between that trilogy of books and this trilogy of movies are… uh… Okay, so there’s next to no connection and I can’t get too excited about reading a novella written for teenagers, but still. Back to the topic on hand, Fear Street: 1666 ties all the threads from Fear Street: 1994 and Fear Street: 1978 together, revealing the truth behind all the bad things that happen in Shadyside. And I’m going to talk around that…

Henry V (1989)
I really need to stop slacking off. My list of films that I’ve referenced on this blog but haven’t gotten around to currently has 330 movies, and that’s not even including any movies I’ve mentioned in the last week or so. So let’s bite the bullet and roll the digital equivalent of a 330-sided die! And we get… #138. That is… Henry V by Mr. Kenneth Branagh. I mentioned this in my Thor review, didn’t I? Good to know I’m predictable, at least. Anyway, let’s get Shakespearean up in here!

Arrow – Season 1, Episodes 18-20
Remember when I talked about episodes of Arrow? It’s understandable if you thought I had forgotten, since the last time was three weeks ago. But now that Loki is over I’ll have to post something on Saturdays, so getting back into the groove and finishing off Arrow season 1 sounds like a pretty good idea. This batch of episodes introduces John Diggle’s future wife as well as having two different love triangles involving Oliver, so let’s warm up with a recap of the season so far!

Loki – Season 1, Episode 6
Starting this post off with a little PSA: We live in the age of immediate spoilers, and whether you like it or not, we sort of have to adjust to that. Back when Marvel Comics killed off Captain America, they infamously told news outlets before comic stores even opened to sell that particular comic. But don’t actively tag people in spoilers before you know that they’ve seen the media in question. As you can probably tell, I went into the season finale of Loki’s first season knowing that my theory from episode 5 was wrong. So let’s see how things…

Fear Street: 1978 (2021)
Okay, so I didn’t actually reread The Fear Street Saga as I suggested I might while talking about Fear Street: 1994, the first in this trilogy of horror. I’m going to try again this weekend, but I make no promises. It’s not like it really matters anyway, since these films are more inspired by the Fear Street series, as evidenced by Sarah Fier being a central character in the films who isn’t in the books. With that out of the way, I do have something positive to report: my expectations for Fear Street: 1978 were pretty low, and this movie…
