Thankful

So, I kinda missed the mark on today’s post. Sorry, but was busy on the actual American Thanksgiving Day, so I didn’t really have time to make up a big ‘ol post.

Also, I’ve been meaning to blog about the current political climate in the area ever since the results of the election came in. But you know what? Fuck it. Politics honestly scare me and I’d rather just use my blog for lighter fair. So, let’s do something a bit more “Nice.”

Review: Doctor Strange

Housekeeping first: I hope everyone had a happy Halloween last week. I basically missed the last 3 days of Crypt-ober due to general busy-ness. Hey, at least I did a blog a day for the majority of the month. Now, let’s dive in.

Heck, I have even basically turned my opinion around about Jessica Jones (in that I will totally watch Season 2 when it gets released). (Agents of SHIELD is basically the only exception. Screw that show.) Marvel has even proven that their obscure comic properties can be turned into uber-massive hits. So I was super hyped when Doctor Strange was announced. The hype only got bigger and bigger for me the more we saw trailers and posters. I didn’t know anything about Dr. Strange going into this. So, how was the movie? Let’s find out. This is Doctor Strange.
