Let's Watch "The Hunger Games"


Watched The Hunger Games premiere night so I'm reviewing it. I'm pretty sure there was a shit-ton more and I'll probably keep adding it in as I remember.

EXPECTATIONS: As soon as I saw the main cast, I expected very, very low quality in the film. I mean, I like a lot of them as individual performers but for something of this caliber, with this important a message, they wouldn't be able to pull it off as well as a POC could. Let's see what I got...

Let's Watch "The Playboy Club" - Episode 1: Pilot


EXPECTATIONS: I hate Hugh Hefner so, of course, my expectations are extremely low. I expect this will be another glamorization of women being emotionally and sexually harassed in the business as well as a white-washed revisionist history. Let's do this...

Let's Watch "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho (Nine-Tailed Fox)"


EXPECTATIONS: Yay, another cisgendered and heteronormative K-drama! One of my friends kept telling me to watch this so I'm finally getting around to it. It's by the Hong sisters. Lately, they've been disappointing me to the extreme. The Greatest Love (F-) was horrible and You're Beautiful (D) had its moments but it was almost equally as horrible for almost the same reasons. I don't know how I skipped over this but HERE I AM NOW! I hope Hong sisters don't disappoint me with this. We shall see...

Let's Watch "Teen Wolf" - Episode 1: Pilot



EXPECTATIONS: I was pretty much against watching this because it's MTV and they're known for their trashy gimmicks and whatnot but, after reading about it in last week's issue of Entertainment Weekly, I decided to give it a try. Giving it a chance mostly because it's been a while since MTV has had a scripted show. Who knows? Maybe they've improved. Maybe they're not like The Jersey Shore or any of their other ridiculous "reality" television shows. We shall see...
