1st Annual Bib’s Corner Movie Awards (Nominees)
After allowing the movies I watched in 2019 to marinate for a while I am finally ready to announce the nominees for the 1st Annual Bib’s Corner Movie Awards.
What better way to do that than creating my own awards? Continue reading 1st Annual Bib’s Corner Movie Awards (Nominees)
Mavs Mid-Season Report Card
Before the season I predicted the Mavs would make the playoffs but I had them in the 7-8 range. When we checked in for our first quarter report card, the Mavs had made their way up to the 2 seed but things have changed since then. Continue reading Mavs Mid-Season Report Card
Call it a Day Review: I can’t get enough of these ladies
The ladies are flawed and they don’t pretend not to be but you cheer for them because dammit, they’re trying and the world isn’t exactly doing them any favors. Continue reading Call it a Day Review: I can’t get enough of these ladies
Every 2019 Movie (ranked)
One of my goals for 2019 was to keep a running ranking of every movie I watched this year. That way I wasn’t spending too much energy trying to figure out how I felt about a movie from January when December rolled around. I still ended up shifting some of the movies at the end but it was much easier starting out with a baseline. Continue reading Every 2019 Movie (ranked)
1st Annual Bib’s Corner Movie Awards (shortlists)
With awards season upon us I find myself already being disappointed by the nominees. Many great performances and movies are being overlooked (as usual) and rather than being frustrated I’ve decided to do my part in making sure they’re recognized.
What better way to do that than creating my own awards? Continue reading 1st Annual Bib’s Corner Movie Awards (shortlists)
Waves Review: 2 stories about love and family
Waves has a strong cast, headlined by Sterling K. Brown and rising star Kelvin Harrison, Jr. The first story is about toxic masculinity but both stories highlight how a lack of communication within a family can be devastating. Continue reading Waves Review: 2 stories about love and family
Mavs 1st Quarter Report Card
Before the season I predicted the Mavs would make the playoffs but I had them in the 7-8 range. However with some of the top teams underperforming for different reasons (Blazers and Warriors injuries, Jazz chemistry) the Mavs looked to be in even better position to make the playoffs, perhaps a 4-5 seed. It appears Luka has other plans, though and has carried the Mavs all the way to the 2 seed one fourth of the way through the season. Continue reading Mavs 1st Quarter Report Card
The Last Black Man in San Francisco review: Poignant and beautiful
I watch a lot of movies and I would be lying if I said that I didn’t forget many things but the opening 5 minutes of The Last Black Man in San Francisco are the most powerful opening 5 minutes I can remember seeing. Continue reading The Last Black Man in San Francisco review: Poignant and beautiful
Brittany Runs a Marathon review: An unlikeable lead
Brittany Runs a Marathon starts out strong with great humor and an inspiring story. Then, when things appear to be looking up for Brittany she devolves and hurts the people around her. This killed the good vibes and simply made me dislike her the rest of the movie. Continue reading Brittany Runs a Marathon review: An unlikeable lead
Parasite review: Funny, Real, then Dark
I went into Parasite blind so I was incredibly shocked by what I saw. Bong Joon Ho has to be up for every writing and directing award for his work here. Even when I knew things weren’t going to go well I felt secure and when he took that away it left me devastated. By the end I was hurt but the message had been received. Continue reading Parasite review: Funny, Real, then Dark
