This week was so freaking exhausting for me. I always had something to do and fell into a really bad sleeping pattern, I can’t believe the weekend is basically over already. Oh well, sometimes life’s just like that. Let’s check out some trailers and promos for TV shows and movies for relaxation.
Movies
Glass Onion
I’m so hyped for this movie! I hope it lives up to the previous one.
Chevalier
I love that his story is getting a stage! We’re about to rediscover some gems from history and show them the respect they deserve.
The Almond and the Seahorse
This movie is going to be devastating to watch, but it’s so interesting to see Rebel Wilson in serious roles now.
The Whale
Brendan Fraser deserves his comeback, even if I don’t know whether this movie is for me or not.
George & Tammy
Jessica Chastain is doing it again!
The Marriage App
Don’t gamify your marriage!
Diamond in the Rough
It doesn’t look great, but it could be fun to watch at home on a slow day.
John Wick 4
I kind of lost track of the sequels? But I love Keanu Reeves, so that’s always good.
Scrooge: A Christmas Carol
This can’t beat my Christmas comfort movie – Klaus.
Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio
I’m way more likely to watch this adaptation than the latest Disney one.
Sissy
Shouldn’t this have come out before Halloween?
Mindcage
Lionsgate is doing all the dark movies.
TV Shows
Kindred
Oh! Did not know an adaptation for this was coming!
I Hate Christmas
This is … an exact copy of Hjem til jul/Home for Christmas just in Italian?
Criminal Minds: Evolution
I loved the show, even if I didn’t watch it all religiously. Still unsure if enough time passed for a reboot.
The Witcher: Blood Origin
I’ll watch it.
Dragon Age: Absolution
The art style reminds me of The Legend of Vox Machine … oh wait, is that Matt I hear? I see a pattern.
The Lying Life of Adults
Feels like it could be a movie, but the interwebs says otherwise.
Gossip Girl (Season 2)
Is it like the OG show? Nope, but let’s be real – the OG show would not work today at all. I’m here for the new drama.
Carnival Row (Season 2)
I legit forgot everything that happened on this show. You can’t just go ahead after four years and expect me to still be invested.
Thoughts:
1. John Wick 4: I’ll watch it when it’s on home media.
2. Sissy: Everyday is Halloween for some people. Also, I like the idea of influencers being the victims/perpetrators of horror.
3. The Witcher: Blood Origin: I’ll check it out, but I’ll admit my Witcher enthusiasm has cooled a bit since season 2.

I think I’m more excited for the Witcher Blood Origin than for season 4, when Liam Hemsworth takes over the role of Geralt. Still feels like such a wrong decision to me. They should have gone older instead.

Maybe Chris Hemsworth?

No? I mean older older. They should do a time jump to grown up Ciri and old Geralt, like in the games. Not suddenly younger.
And Chris Hemsworth is taking a break from acting after learning he has a genetic predisposition for alzheimer’s to focus on his family.

I had no idea! Well, we can’t change the casting decisions, can we? Just lament them.

I love Rebel Wilson in comedies, so it will be interesting to see her in a serious role. I can’t even imagine it.

I think the more serious roles came with her weight loss, which I find interesting. She gave a really profound interview on how she struggled to find her place once she wasn’t the funny fat girl anymore. Typecasting can be so annoying.

That’s exactly what I was thinking! It’s like she’s now “good enough” to be taken seriously. That is not cool.

I 100% agree!

With Glass Onion coming out, maybe I should watch Knives Out, I’ve heard SO much about that movie 👀
