#86

hello, its me again, been almost a year, just a repeat of basically last year, what I do is still the same, volunteering as liquipedia editor (albeit I do do a lot of updating), sometimes I get donation - its the same person all along (just a small amount compared to minimum wage), for now I currently live with my parents, think will probably stay here for a couple months, my plan was always the same, reduce my volunteer work and get a irl job - although I always procrastinate the plan every year lol, but maybe this year is actual real.

relationship with my brothers more or less the same, except maybe my 4th - I have no idea if I mentioned before that I got four brothers. there was this one time, I forgot when was it, but it was during a car ride from Ipoh to KL, I had a argument with my 3rd bro - after that I also exploded at my 4th bro. though after that I quickly back to peace/zen mode as I always do. because at this age its not wise/good/healthy to have argument/drama with family members, not sure about relatives though lol, I like to think I always have been on a 'good' side with my bros (not sure about them towards me though) except 4th, we always have on and off speaking terms.

movie time, its been a year, surely watched more than a few movies, maybe I'll go through them with random thoughts.

Prey - good, not bad of a design of a predator, a prequel

Black Adam - mediocre, I do think the people involved tried sincerely

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - mediocre, same as above

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery - good, I have no idea how to talk about this, I just think its good

Avatar: The Way of Water - neutral, I never get to really experience as a whole, as my first experience with it didn't go well, I'll remember this movie release for the wrong reasons, after maybe two-third into the movie, my chest started to pain, the intensity causes me almost want go exit the theatre into the hallway to somehow relieve myself, I have no idea the cause, maybe my sitting posture or whatever, then I lost consciousness and awaken after 10-13 minutes (I checked the time later), I felt the experience of slowly regaining consciousness as I started to hear dialogues of the movie again but the world is black to me, I woke up, I'm not sure but I might sweated, after the movie ends, I exited the mall and just sit on a sidewalk, trying to slowly regain my strength, although my chest continues to pain if I walk, well perhaps because the heart beats faster when walking, so everynow and then I have to stop to relieve the pain, I finally reached home, and lied on the bed for a couple minutes, the pain during walk went on for several days, although it gradually becomes less intense and lesser. I have no idea what episodes I had, I remember googling the symptoms I had lol, could be collapse lung, heart attack, cardiac arrest. although I think I'm too young to have that right? haha, no way its due to empty stomach, I believed I ate before that 3h movie.

so if you gave me list of choice of the movies above, I would rewatch Prey or Glass Onion

Knock at the Cabin - mediocre, I think its only good for one watch

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania - mediocre, the trailers portrayed it very good, the actual film itself is just so so, serious Kang in a comedic movie, not workable(?)

Cocaine Bear - mediocre, this one quite lol, I think if you got time to kill then can try watch this

65 - mediocre, I always see Adam Driver as a villain type, as I was introduced to him through Star Wars, so its hard to accept when he's playing a hero type

Shazam! Fury of the Gods - mediocre, I don't think the first one is better, its more or less the same, but I do agree that some scenes doesn't go well

John Wick: Chapter 4 - very good, I have no idea what clicks but John Wick films is always good, the only one thing I might consider is some action scenes the extra is clearly waiting for Wick to hit, so that makes me want to trim those scenes a little

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves - good, I only heard about the game/books but never knew about it, so I watched it with no expectations, turns out really good itself

The Super Mario Bros. Movie - good, gonna agree with some reaction videos, I think its good because of the nostalgias it had, although I would think if a person never had any experience with the games - that person would also think its good

Evil Dead Rise - good, again no idea what clicks, but I only watched the modern recent Evil Dead and this one, think they're both good, I dont think I have a like for horror films, just if I like it then I like it

Guy Ritchie's The Covenant - mediocre, no idea what to say although I do remember the basic story

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 - very good, the only one time I ever cried in a movie theater, I think before this I only had wet eyes or feel sad, but this one actually made me cry, a good ending for the crew nonetheless

Fast X - good, haha I actually like this one, think its a lot better than the previous one

Transformers: Rise of the Beast - mediocre, I think to go from bumblebee to this its a bit too much,

The Flash - above mediocre, I know there's a lot of negative things, but I think as a film its not that bad, able to rewatch it

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny - good, not very interested with the trailers, but the film itself is not bad, able to rewatch it

Insidious: The Red Door - mediocre, as with generic horror films, think its good for one watch only

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One - good, MI movies always good to watch
