Today I was intending to start my recap about The Fall of the House of Usher but I notice today is December the 1st, 2023 is almost over just 30 days left so I decided to check whats for December and there are a few TV Series that I got my eye on, two of them brand new and other two on their second season that’s Reacher and Sweet Home, on top there are a few Movies that I think will do great, one of them Godzilla Minus One already premier in Japan and was a total home run, then we got Aquaman 2 probably the last time we will see Jason Mamoa doing Aquaman as he will probably start doing Lobo, that’s another story for another time; then American Fiction a total blast of a comedy considering the trailer and Rebel Moon first part.
The moment I finish the cover of this post I realize this is going to be a fucking lone one, I took in consideration a few things like providing more info like:
- Release date
- Platform
- Trailer
Things that people usually ask for when you mention titles on micro blogging platforms like Waves or Inleo, besides the usual but I was already committed so there was no turn around, I also added Movies this time that I would love to start doing Movies reviews but the problem with me and Movies is that I’m easy to loose as a viewer when it comes to Movies, I get disappointed really fast before even watching it for example Napoleon, I haven’t watch it and considering reviews and comments online I might skip it when it comes online, last month there were two banger I mention that was Monarch and For All Mankind that I already starting doing recaps, I’m a bit behind as always but on this two I will do a full review of the season when I’m done with recaps, in case anyone ask my blog is not about how fast I put out new content but quality, trying to narrate a story with images, my opinion and probably bring awareness of a good entertainment TV Series or Movie for anyone who haven’t watch it, so here I’m about to write a probably long post.
Tv Series
Sweet Home: Season 02
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11612120/
Air: December, 1, 2023
Platform: Netflix
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WJweFedauI
I can’t give much of an opinion about Sweet Home since I haven’t watch season one, actually this could be one of the last seasons I will start doing recaps about it because of that, I have to first watch season one but based on the trailer there are a few things that caught my attention, the first is how the main character name Hyun, only shows a single wing on the entire trailer like he doesn’t know how to fully transform himself, to me it look like a story of monsters invasion but they have learn how to shape shift into humans, evolving and probably try to be humans, like they are learning how to control themself and experimenting how to behave like humans to the point that they like it but still can not fully control themself at times while others just keep ripping them off, at the same time humans, military most; can’t trust anyone not even their own people because of this shape shifting monsters between them, I don’t speak Korean so been on a language that I don’t know its hard to watch sometimes because you have to pause/play/rewind to keep track of things, but looks very interesting and its on Netflix a very common platform for viewers to have.
Tv Series
Culprits: Season 01
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14531774/
Air: November, 8, 2023
Platform: Hulu, Disney
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj676s3BS04
Total new series for me, I got a bit confuse on this one because some places say that it started on November 8 and others on December 8. Culprits, from the trailer this could be a very short series, its eight episodes and the reason I say short series is because they would have to really develop the story after they main event, there is Joe and Dianne who rob a vault, not sure where its from but during the process something goes wrong and a guard gets hit, Joe doesn’t look like a bad guy so he takes the guard with him probably to take her to a hospital but at the same time he is running away. Joe looks like an opportunistic guy, a man who is not afraid of taking risks but this lead to wanting progress to happen from thin air and grow fast, this usually comes with a very high price when things go south and after his last job now he got some heat behind him, some people are coming for him, certainly in revenge for a job he did, his partner at home has no idea of this double life he is in but the pressure is starting to become too much that he probably putting everyone around him in danger.
Tv Series
Reacher: Season 02
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9288030/
Air: December, 15, 2023
Platform: Amazon
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tC-rRhQcnlI
After watching season one I know this is going to be a total banger of a season, its very similar to the movie from 2012 Jack Reacher, but not sure if its exactly the same story from what I can tell it is, an investigator with military background, the guy is a total bad ass and keeps fucking up people on every episode, protects the innocent at all cost at the same time is very smart and “technical” about how he approach things to figure out who is guilty or not, this is a AAA series that probably not many people know about with a 8.1/10 on IMDB, looks like it has been a long time since I watch season one, only a year ago.
Tv Series
Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Season 01
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12324366/
Air: December, 20, 2023
Platform: Disney
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHb7au6Gmls
From the trailer Percy Jackson and the Olypians is exactly what I thought it would be, they have taken the movies into a tv series, Disney got this character very dominated with a few movies already but to be honest their rating is a bit low, this is a series I would try to watch with my kids, probably technology has advance enough so special effects can be at the same level that the story demands, this is a story based on mythology, Percy Jackson a half blood between Sons of Gods trying to learn their ways been push out but he is the real deal, this series is a 50/50 but I would still give it a try, those scenes with lots of special effects must be really cool on VR.
Movie
Godzilla Minus One
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt23289160/
Theaters: December 1, 2023
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvSrHIX5a-0
Godzilla Minus One is a Movie I have mention many times before on my Hive account, many call it a piece of art, its very different from other Godzilla movies I mean from Hollywood Godzilla Movies, main on Godzilla shape, the story around is the classic Godzilla who attack Japan and humans try to stop it without much luck at first, there is nothing really special about the story itself, the concept of Godzilla, from what I can tell after watching all the trailers available, I hope this is not a movie that gave it all on the trailer, it doesnt look that way neither and it has high reviews already from its premier in Japan, 8.4/10 on IMDB.
Movie
American Fiction
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt23561236/
Theaters: December 15, 2023
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0MbLCpYJPA
I’m not really into comedies but since the moment I saw American Fiction first trailer I knew I have to watch it, its the hilarious story of Thelonious ‘Monk’ Ellison a writer who has self respect and try to make a honest life out of his books, books that make sense and he puts hard work on them but they are not popular until he watch another author basically trolling people with her book, bringing them the street life on her own words and that is the moment when he had enough and starts doing the same although money and fame probably got the best of him, starting to create a false character that others love to the extreme of making too big of a lie that puts his life in danger, then remembering the good old times when he was a no body but had a peaceful life.
Movie
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9663764/
Theaters: December 22, 2023
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FV3bqvOHRQo
I think the first movie of Aquaman the first movie is undervalue based on online ratings, its a very entertain movie, Jason Mamoa did a great job representing Aquaman and the now days hated Amber Heard, after her trial with Johnny Depp; as Mera she look so fine and sexy, what I like about Aquaman is how they show all the other realms, something that other movies like Quantumania could have done exploiting all this different race, characters, living things and Aquaman does that very well, the two hours of movie does feel like a long time because they kept traveling from one place to another, on top there were different side stories all connected at the end to Aquaman, The Lost Kingdom is a continuation to that story even brings back Patrick Wilson as Aquaman half blood brother.
Movie
Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14998742/
Stream: December 22, 2023
Platform: Netflix
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhr3MzT6exg
Rebel Moon is a story I know nothing about just what I have seen and read about the trailer, the story of Kora, who landed on a far a way Moon and started a new life as a farmer, she is a very skill fighter and first treated as just a worker now becomes the only hope to the farmers to fight back after they were caught selling crops to the wrong side of a war they can’t fight, Kora starts recruiting fighters from around to try to defend this place she was now making a honest living trying to forget her past, this movie is from Zack Snyder who has made some very cool movies and some of my favorites like 300 and Wonder Woman, even with his version of Justice League did a great job so I don’t think Rebel Moon will disappoint the only problem will be how much of hanger will it be at the end been a two part movie, similar to Rune that we are all waiting on.
This are just brief descriptions of what I expect from each of the TV Series and Movies I mention on this post, trying to bring you my premature opinion on them adding as much information I could grab, this set I think will do very well specially with the movies, the only weak links are Culprit and Percy Jackson, those two for me are a 50/50. Sweet Home is the only one that is not on English and some people cant take watching with subtitles but in my case that’s fine I do it with anime already so its not big deal and the story very Sci-Fi fits on anime too so I still have high hopes about Sweet Home, everything else I think its bulletproof.
