Wednesday (2022)
Much better than expected.
First few episodes seeing the cast I was very skeptical but I'm very glad I stuck it out. The cast played their roles well.
Wednesday was uniquely Wednesday. Intelligent, strategical, morbid, brutal, uncompromising of her own self, stylish yet caring, considerate within reason, and showing she can look out for others besides herself. She uses her intelligence (and thing) to help her classmates and maybe even saving a few of their lives indirectly, even if it is to fulfill her own desires.
Overall the show is about Wednesday and she plays her role very well. Between the interesting environment, scenery, cgi plus the background people (extras?) They do a good job at making the world come to life around Wednesday and really sell the world for the viewer.
I definitely recommend you give it a solid chance if you're a fan of the original.
America's Funniest Home Videos: Animal Edition (2021)
Alfonso is trying too hard and ruined the show for me.
America's Funniest Home Videos used to be one of my favorite shows. I grew up with Bob Saget hosting. I feel like he just let the videos be funny without trying to set them up too much or trying to be funnier than the videos themselves.
Alfonso was great on fresh prince and other areas I've seen him in but I feel like his brand of comedy conflicts with America's Funniest Home Videos. Which is really sad for me because I loved the show but every time I've settled in for the comedic ride with a couple friends he will tell a poorly timed joke, make a joke too obvious to the point he ruins it where if he left it half way through it would have been funny. Sometimes it even seems he's trying to be funnier than the videos he is introducing.
I hope he is offered another equally opportunity, if not a better opportunity so a different host can take over. I feel like Terry Cruz would do a good job but he already has his several gigs.
The Before Time (2014)
Decent story, bad acting.
The story was decent, it even had a lesson. The acting kept it from being a great movie. There was overacting and underacting. The actors where good enough to make you hate some characters personalities. My biggest complaint was the lack of immersion. The bad acting kept pushing me out of the world the movie created.
