La La Land
Okay…so this movie came out when I was in high school and I hated it then. It was in fact way overhyped and won far too many awards for what it was. I re-watched it recently with my best friend and I have not changed my opinion but I can now articulate my thoughts on the matter better, so here we go.

Review of Season 2 of Paradise: Sterling K. Hulu's expansive post-apocalyptic revival is led by Brown.
On February 23, 2026, the highly anticipated second season of the popular Hulu show Paradise brought viewers back into its post-apocalyptic world and expanded its narrative in ways that have garnered praise and criticism from viewers and critics alike. The series starring Sterling K. has a broader scope, new characters, and a shift in tone. Brown's performance as Xavier Collins, a Secret Service agent, continues to investigate survival, human connection, and the emotional cost of disaster. Season 2 debuted with "three episodes available immediately" on Hulu and Disney+. It will continue with weekly episodes through an eight-episode arc, similar to how the first season was structured.

Unstreamable ’80s Classics: The Movies Lost in Digital Limbo
The reality of the streaming era is something stranger, and far more fragile. A surprising number of culturally significant films from the 1980s—movies that helped define their era, shape careers, and influence generations of filmmakers—are not currently available to stream on major subscription platforms in the United States. They are not lost in the literal sense. They exist. But they are functionally invisible, stranded in a digital limbo created by rights disputes, lapsed licenses, music clearances, and the quiet indifference of corporations toward anything that doesn’t immediately generate clicks.

XOXO
XOXO was released to Netflix on August 26, 2016. Six strangers come from around the USA to attend the music festival called XOXO. What comes is a day of and night of partying, drug trips, dates, fights, love, happiness, and an opportunity of a lifetime. The most important thing about the film is it is a character film. The main plot is the festival but it’s the ensemble that drives the story. We focus on the individual lives of Ethan, Krystal, Shannie, Ray, Neil, and Tariq. During the pandemic of 2020, music festivals and concerts had been either cancelled or postponed so it is nice and bittersweet to see lots of people in a group dancing and having a good time.

Only Lovers Left Alive
Today I watched "Only Lovers Left Alive," a 2013 Jim Jarmusch film. It is hard to define its genre: Wikipedia describes it as "Gothic fantasy comedy-drama," but I've also seen it defined as "horror thriller." I guess to say it has a little bit of everything would be fair. I'm going to run it quickly through my usual media literacy analysis, with major spoilers included. So if you want to watch it and hate spoilers, you should probably stop here.
