‘Falling Skies’ is a series that I spent a lot of time watching and re-watching. As it is a completed series, I can be satisfied whenever I’m doing a watch through of the show and I reach the end. At the start you are thrown right into the action with little narrative explanation, but it is just enough to make sure that you know exactly what is going on. There is action right out of the gate when the show begins, but the biggest part of the show isn’t the action, so much as the drama. What would people do in an apocalyptic scenario and they were forced to fight or hide from aliens. That is a question that is answered very well in this show and makes for good, but also somewhat cheesy interactions between the characters. I always look forward to re-watching it every once in a while because I will suddenly remember how much I enjoy it.

This tv series is easily one of my favorites of all time. I am a huge science fiction fan, and as such this is a fantastic series. The accurate depiction of how physics is affected in space starts right from the first episode and had me hooked. That and the mystery introduced to the audience as well makes you want to keep watching to see what is happening. This is made even more mysterious when you realize that it is a mystery that began at the far reaches of our solar system. ‘The Expanse’ is a show where if one mystery is solved, then another one pops up immediately after. Just like space in real life; if we discover something about the universe, then we will just keep ending up with more questions. Scientific curiosity is one of my favorite things in science fiction and this series shows that sometimes it can just go too far.

This film starts off bleak, which is why I was expecting there to be some kind of triumph for humanity, but I did not expect what it would be. This film is one that I went for a long time without seeing, and then some day I decided to watch it. At this point we should know that just because a film is animated, that doesn’t mean it is a kids film. This is important to note because when I finally saw it, I was sort of shocked to see a movie about the vestiges of humanity surviving in the future. The film itself plays out in some ways like an epic, but at its hour and a half run time it is definitely worth the watch. If you aren’t into heavily into sci-fi and can’t suspend your disbelief, then you probably won’t like this film. It has its moments where it can be a bit much to take in, but I still enjoyed it overall as a film. I hope that this film has some kind of effect on people because it could inspire many people to work toward a better future.

I feel as though I need to first preface this by saying that I have never had any problems with clowns, but this movie made me feel uncomfortable around them now. The titular Klowns are just creepy and eerie looking, and they just make you feel awkward by looking at them. The film itself has a ridiculous premise, so of course it is a comedic horror movie, but that still doesn’t mean it’s not creepy to sit through. If you like horror movies, then this is definitely a movie for you to watch, and I strongly recommend that you do. Just know that it is exactly as weird as you may think it is, and if you have seen it, you can definitely agree with me at least to some extent. If you are already afraid of clowns, then you may just have candy-coated nightmares for the rest of your life. That is, assuming the film doesn’t give you a heart attack.
