Madame Web
Okay so by now most people have seen the trailer for the new Madame Web movie. And I have heard mixed things, some people are really excited for it (the only correct answer) and some people are asking why it even exists. Well I’m just gonna say that there are 1000 bad superhero movies focused on men, we deserve some mediocre filmmaking too. Without worrying that this is the last representation we are ever gonna get. ALSO there are so many amazing women in the Spiderverse and they deserve some attention. But most casual viewers don’t know why it's being made because they have no idea who Madame Web is. And that's fair so here is your background into Madame Web and the other wonderful women that are making an appearance in this movie.

Saltburn
Okay so the internet is full of mixed reviews about Saltburn. On the one hand we have people who can’t stop raving about how awesome and brilliant it is. And on the other we have people who are saying that it is the most depraved and insane thing that they have ever seen. Now I was interested in this movie from the second I saw the trailer so we are going to go ahead and see which side is correct, or if we land somewhere in the middle. I couldn’t in good conscience put out my ranking list for the films of 2023 without watching this movie so here we go with my review of Saltburn.

Echo
With Echo now released I thought we should do a little comic book background on her as well as assessing how accurate the show was. Now as always I do not care if story beats are accurate, that is not how comic book adaptations, or any adaptations for that matter should work. I do however expect characterizations to be accurate. The show has actually done a pretty good job but let's go through why and what we might see based on her appearances in the comic books.

Echo
Recently Disney+ dropped its latest series, Echo. As with anything new that the MCU dares to do the show was met with many complaints. But as we know the general public’s opinion on what is of quality or not means absolutely nothing to me. So I of course had to watch it myself. The series is a very bingeable 5 episodes so I did finish it in a weekend. As of right now it is being railed as the second lowest rated MCU show…at 73% audience rating. First of all that isn’t at all a bad score, second of all we need to leave 10% wiggle room for internet incels angry that women exist and another 10% for the fact that Echo isn’t an established character in the MCU. Let’s go ahead and be really honest as to why WandaVision, Loki and Falcon and the Winter Soldier are rated so high, the audience was already familiar with them as characters. The first season of Loki sucked and some of y'all seem to be forgetting that. Also the lowest rated is Secret Invasion at 53% which is still way too high. So grouping them together when there is a 20% difference is insane. So here we go with the reality of Echo.

Best of Psych
Psych remains one of the best crime serials as well as one of the best television shows ever written. It stays consistent in tone, writing style and quality from episode 1 to the series finale. The show also remains underrated and underappreciated so I’ve decided to make a list of what I feel are the best episodes of the long running TV series.

In addition to our master list we are going to go over the Best movies of 2023, the blandest movies of 2023 and the worst movies of 2023. This is the Best list.

Our top 5 best movies of 2023 are;

Blandest Movies of 2023
The reality is that a lot of movies are just mediocre, kind of meh. They weren’t terrible but they were also nothing special. These were just movies that came out this year. They didn’t inspire me nor did they make me violently ill. So this is that list. This is the list of the most mediocre movies of 2023. These will be going from most to least interesting in a very relative manner.

Worst Movies of 2023
With as many amazing movies as we got last year there were bound to be a few bombs. Some bombed harder than others but altogether these are the worst movies of the year. Alright here we go with the list of the absolute worst movies of 2023. These are unforgivably bad with absolutely no redeeming qualities. This list also kind of has a wide range of scores so we will be going from the least offensive to the most upsettingly bad.

Oscar Nominations
Okay so we have been over what I would like to happen as these Oscar nominations are announced. But now we have decided to go a more realistic route. This is my list for what I think the academy is actually going to nominate. Now I may not round out every category but this is a general idea of the movies that the academy will highlight (whether deserved or not).

Oscar Nominations
We are going to do a couple of separate articles in the next couple of days, this one is going to be my personal wants for Oscar nominations. We will then do a separate article for what I think will actually happen in the upcoming Oscar nominations. And then of course we will cover the actual nominations. But here and now we are focusing on what movies I would like to be nominated in each of the important categories.
