Movies I Watched October 2025
The Burmese Harp - dir. Kon Ichikawa
Skin like a dam holding back swells of pain. When I open my eyes it threatens to pour in through the sockets. What happens when you cannot leave behind the remnants of cruelty? Walk through the corpses. Be immersed in the suffering. 7/10.

Avatar - dir. James Cameron
Terrible worldbuilding. Alien world where all the aliens ride alien horses and use bow and arrows. And look like tall people. Dances with Wolves for people who think Telltale Games is cinema. Graphics aged like ass. For one of the highest grossing films ever made you could probably not find a single person who could quote anything from it off the top of their head at gunpoint. I just tried watching it and the information has already slid off my brain like water off a duck’s back.
Why does James Cameron have shooters? He’s like if you took the lamest aspects of Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg and turned them into an artist.
