Girl on: Hideaki Anno’s ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’ (eps 17-20)
It’s weird, before I write these I’ll watch all of the episodes I’m covering twice. Once spread out, over a few days or so, so that I can pay attention and get the experience of actually watching for the first time, and the second will be running through the four and taking notes right before…

Thoughts on: Hideaki Anno’s ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’ (eps 13-16)
These next four episodes are split two ways again, 13 and 15 seem to be interested in drilling down into objective reality, 14 and 16 go in the exact opposite direction, interrogating these character’s subjectivity. It feels odd to describe them out of order like this, but it’s really the only way that writing like…

Thoughts on Hideaki Anno’s ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’ (eps 9-12)
Nine episodes in and it seems like things have finally settled down into a good rhythm, although I’m assured by reputation that it’ll be shaken up before too long.

Thoughts on Hideaki Anno’s ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’ (eps 5-8)
I guess I basically decided to cover these episodes in blocks of four because I got to the end of the fourth and decided it was such an amazing piece of filmmaking that I had to write about it.

Thoughts on Hideaki Anno’s ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion (eps 1-4)
So this is a show with a main character who is suicidally depressed. It’s confirmed at episode four, but the whole thing’s been building to that point.

Netflix’s ‘Love Death & Robots: The Secret War’ Review
I guess this kinda represents an anticlimax then, the last episode isn’t the show’s worst or its best. It hangs somewhere around the middle, barely managing to escape the fog of mediocrity that it is mired in. Maybe i’m just exhausted, Netflix has just uploaded Neon Genesis: Evangelion and I kinda just wanna get this…

Netflix’s ‘Love, Death & Robots: Alternate Histories’ Review
Okay, this one is an extended six riffs on the same joke none of which are funny. Like, oh my god it’s so fucking bad.

Pixar’s ‘Toy Story 4’: Review
Both this and Toy Story 3 surprised me I guess, I don’t really remember when I watched the first two — definitely I was young and they were broadcast with ad breaks — but they felt epic, big adventure movies in their own right, despite being so small looking back. They left their mark, but never sunk…

Netflix’s ‘Love, Death & Robots: Blindspot’ Review
After one episode that just about pushed enough past the realm of ‘okay’ that I actually struggled to write about it, Love, Death & Robots returns back to its core content. Execrable garbage.

Netflix’s ‘Love Death & Robots: Zima Blue’ Review
I was watching and then reviewing all of these a while ago but had to stop here because it broke me. It’s the first one of these shorts to actually be good, and I didn’t quite know how to deal with that.
