This is a cool trip down nostalgia lane, and it's interesting to see the doomsdayers being ridiculous, but there isn't enough information about what they actually did to prevent anything disastrous from happening due to the 'Y2K bug' and what, if anything, actually went wrong. More details in these areas are needed.

I've always liked Gervais' comedy but I felt like I'd heard a lot of this before. His jokes where the punchline is rape, a disabled kid, or turning around from sounding like he thinks the amount of homeless people are a blight on society, from an egalitarianism stand-point, to them just being horrible and the need to get rid of them, all felt recycled. His story of calling his mum and pretending to be blind is from his podcast/radio show with Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington from a long time ago. It's not unenjoyable, but he needs to write some more original jokes. Before watching this, from some reviews and seeing the reception it received, I thought it would be full of anti-woke content, and while he starts and ends with it, and his jokes aren't what would be considered PC or 'woke', it's not a constant theme or what Ricky talks about. He ends by saying something like if woke is caring about equality then I'm woke, but if it's trying to get people fired for a joke then I'm not. And unfortunately that's where we're at in the current age. Other points from Ricky, like those about clowns having an issue when an actor plays an identity that isn't them, are spot on, but it isn't exactly something that hasn't been said before.

This is better than Book One. The consistency is really good from front to back. I don't think I've heard a more well rounded project from Omarion. Best Tracks: Black Magic, The Usual, I Can't Even Lie, O.E.O (Our Eyes Only), Taking Off, Elevation

This is decent hardcore hip hop/gangsta rap from Detroit. Vocally, there seems to be some Pac and Mystikal influences.

As with all Studio Ghibli films, the animation/visuals are eye-catching, and like most, there is some uniqueness/weirdness as we encounter one unearthly creature after another, but the whole movie doesn't come together. From what I've seen from the studio, Grave of the Fireflies is my favourite and the opening gave off a similar feeling to that film, so I was excited. Overall though, the pacing and character development isn't perfect, and I found that the objective of the character didn't completely gel with the endgame.
