Berry Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald - The Original Screenplay by J.K. Rowling Breach (Cold War Magic #1) by W.L.

Barlog (AB) Monsters Beware! by Jorge Aguirre (GN) Bluecrowne: A Greenglass House Story (Greenglass House #3) by Kate Milford The Dispatcher by John Scalzi (AB) Mogworld by Yahtzee Croshaw (AB) The Pro by Garth Ennis (GN) Nameless by Grant Morrison (GN) The Left-Handed Fate by Kate Milford Mort(e) by Robert Rep Tales from Vader's Castle by Cavan Scottino (GN) Dinosaurs vs. Aliens by Grant Morrison, Barry Sonnenfeld (GN)
Mort(e) was a not good book. Interesting premise, an intro that brings you into the story well, but the middle 1/3 was a bit much and the last 1/3 was too much.
TfVC was an alright book, no great backstories just ghost stories from the Star Wars universe.
DvA was a much better back-of-the-book than it was an actual book. Doesn't help that it's part 1 (that's not really mentioned anywhere) and it was released seven years ago and part 2 does not exist. There is a Goodreads review that says it all better than I can.*

The Kid Who Would Be King came out this year and we saw it on video already? wow it was a bomb huh.
MPR was a nothing movie. It tried too hard to be something and was nothing. Bike stunts? really? and you could so obviously tell they were BMX bikes hiding in the rabble of bikes.
Now & Then trivia: Christina Ricci and Devon Sawa were also in Casper the same year.
At the end of the movie, during the credits, I found out that the same people from the first Lego movie and Spider-Verse had made this movie. It was shocking, frankly, because this was some also-ran garbage that would have been better off as a tv show story line. Though I was amused at Chris Pratt being in two time travel moves in the same year. And they both reference Hot Tub Time Machine, which also made me laugh.
Pokémon Detective Pikachu was pretty good. Figured out the dad about halfway through the film. Laughed my ass off at sad Pikachu singing the Pokémon theme song.

This Immortal is amazing, one of my favorites.
Shape-Shifters was in the Netflix show about robots and death. The thing is, they changed it to Marines for the show for some reason. Kind of stupid to be honest but I'm also biased there.
The Luminous Dead was terrible. A worse love story than Twilight!
True West was also bad. I blame the performances because all it was were two men with very similar voices shouting at each other for a little over an hour.
Beowulf I was surprised by, mostly because I was only really familiar with the Grendel part of the story and it just kept going.

Wine Country was OK, I guess. Not great, not terrible, but not good or bad either.
John Wick 3 was also just OK. Too many things that weren't consistent with the previous two movies. I feel like the composer is coasting on a great theme (oh, let's make it Arabic sounding!) and the stunts are starting to show as just that - stunts.
