Raped by an Angel 

Although Christmas is a time of year for love and cheer for all, holiday cinema has not always represented diverse communities. Being a holiday with Christian origins, much of its media consists of straight white families or straight white romances. Luckily, modern years have been bringing with them plenty of POC and LGBTQ+ representation that the holidays so desperately need.

Taylor Swift dazzles many fans with remixes of her country and pop singles in her Reputation Stadium concert tour, becoming a successful concert film.

Ripley is a great character because she serves two distinct, but rewarding, purposes in the original film and the sequel.

“Nobody 2” is the kind of sequel you expect to roll your eyes at—and then end up grinning through the whole thing. Bob Odenkirk proves once again that an ordinary-looking guy can be the most entertaining action hero alive, battling cartels with harpoons, deep fryers, and pure chaos. Toss in Sharon Stone as a delightfully over-the-top villain, and you’ve got 89 minutes of wild, joyful mayhem that reminds you why going to the movies is just plain fun.

As a frequent “the book was better” extoller, this movie was well worth the watch. 

This 2023 film serves as the final chapter of the Indiana Jones franchise.
