Bluey: TV Shop (2023)
One of my favorite episodes of many!
It still blows my mind how much these creators cram into 8 minutes. This episode had SO MUCH going on! Bandit getting vitamins, the cameras, the kids finding each other, the other parents trying to better themselves, the single mom and dad connecting! It just goes on and on. You just cannot help but smile seeing every kid light up and dance their own unique dance. Not to mention Bluey doing a phenomenal job narrating the scene/camera chances.
These kids have a blast at "work" voicing these characters, and it shines through brilliantly. Every episode is simple enough for a child of any age, yet always contains multiple nuggets that make any parent chuckle. I can't get enough of this joyous show!
Soul (2020)
Was in tears through the majority of the movie
Beautiful display of what it means to be human. Life literally is what you make it; it's those moments that make you *alive*. To avoid becoming a Lost Soul (consumed by anxiety, fixation, addiction, etc), you must live in the moment. It's all perception, it's all mentality based.
Jamie Foxx said it best in an interview: "This movie could not have come at a better time"
Bo Burnham: Make Happy (2016)
Spot-on Thinkpiece surrounding Depression
Yes, he has a twing of angst, and he gets that off with snide remarks, but haven't we all?
To those that can relate to Bo's take on being young, so worried about success, and constant worry/frustration with your situation *for whatever issue*, this is a moving representation of what we feel like we go through every day.
We all just want to Make Happy, in some way.
BoJack Horseman: That's Too Much, Man! (2016)
Hauntingly Beautiful
This goes down as one of the most eloquent pieces of television to ever be created. Up with the high moments of Breaking Bad and Ozark. A commentary on our place in it all. No matter your own personal experience, you can relate to some portion of this show in your own unique. A beautiful display of human emotion.
Interstellar (2014)
Masterpiece.
Let me take a moment to explain my connection to this incredible film. While getting my undergrad at Ohio State, I took a class dedicated in its entirety to Black Holes. This was in 2014, and the semester perfectly coincided with the release of this film. Although I've since gone on to enter the business world, this was my favorite class of my undergraduate tenure. I had the privilege to learn from a professor who was required to take a couple of weeks off to attend a summit in Chile, as he was one of the few people on the planet qualified to work on and analyze the Hubble telescope. We spent an entire week dissecting the metrics of the film's central black hole, Gargantuan; it's spin, mass, and charge. My textbook? Authored none other than Kip Thorne, who was also the Executive Producer of this film. Kip, as you'll see in the trivia section on IMDB, had the immense task to keep all aspects of this film within the grasp of our current theoretical realm. Although elements of this film fringe on the very edge of scientific theory, the overall scientific elements of it are sound, which is why I respected it so greatly. It is a perfect converging of Hollywood and Science. This film came at the perfect time for me, and capped my favorite educational course I have ever taken, albeit far from the professional path I would end up taking. Please dismiss the campy elements of the film, perhaps realizing they simply add "gravity" to the plot! One of my favorite movies of all time, if you have any interest in the deep recesses of space and the *truly* unknown (as humanity has no grasp of what surrounds the central plot of this film), I encourage you to watch, and rewatch, this cinematic adventure.
