Update Blog - 6/26/21 (Patreon)

At long last, I've finally finished my streak of reviewing me movies every week! That's gotta be a record for me, right? It had its ups and downs, some good ones, some...not-so good ones, but at least now I can have a bit of a break and have more time for my family and friends and finishing off other big projects I have in store.

- Released my review of Luca: Among all the movies I had to review in a row, Luca was easily the best one. Come to think of it, a part of me does get the disappointment that this is not on the big screen because it would've greatly benefited from the atmosphere and make the great immersiveness of the movie even better. I'll agree that this is nowhere in the leagues of Pixar's masterpieces like Soul, but it is still great on it's own and still one of the best animated movies of the year so far. Admittedly, it was surprisingly challenging to make this review. Maybe I didn't have my groove on my first day of working on this project, but I ended up rewriting about half the script and added more talking pieces that it ended up becoming a whole weekend project. It turned out to be a review that's quite long by my standards at around 14 minutes, but I'm happy that found a way to put out all my thoughts onto this one video. There may be better Pixar films out there, sure, but it still doesn't change that this could possibly be the most charming animated feature of the year.

- Writing & Recording another History video: Since I finished off that other History video last week, I might as well make the one that more than half the people voted on my poll. I will say right now that, after going through all the research and writing the script, this will be a bigger video than the last History video I just made. In fact, the script for this one has more than 4000 words in total. I even found the time afterwards to record in front of my green screen for it. It was a lot to go through that session, but that's why I freed up my day for that moment :P Anyways, this is going along pretty well and I can imagine editing this will be a whole challenge of its own, which is why I'll be saving it up next week. If this is what people want, then I think I'll deliver it in ways they won't be expecting.

- Watching episodes for the next Series Review: Like I said in the last vlog, I'm starting my next series review and checking out the new episodes for that one and I'll admit, it's honestly bigger than I thought. In fact, out of all the ones I've been requested recently, this is the biggest. As well as working on the other projects, the best I can do is get the habit of watching some episodes at a time on a daily basis. The big update of where I'm at now is that I've finished the first season and got 2 more to go. If I keep this pace going, I'll have 2 more weeks of watching episodes and then I'll finally make the review itself. It's going steadily as I'm working on other projects, but it is still happening.

And that's been my week of analyzing Italy and working on some anticipated projects. It was a nice break from continuously reviewing all those big movies, but I know I'll have to get back to that for next week. Let's just say I'm gonna have to show who's the boss with my next review. So, until next time...

See ya later, dudes!
