My take on Movies & TV Shows in 2023

For this video, I take a look back at Movies/TV Shows of 2023

My take on gaming in 2023 - https://youtu.be/v6kjewEkNl0

00:00 - Intro

01:40 - Part 1 The good

The Last of Us was a hit

Barbie & Oppenheimer (aka Barbenheimer) was a success at the box office

The Super Mario Bros. Movie did very well at the box office

Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 & the live-action The Little Mermaid were bright spots for Disney

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour became a hit

08:50 - Part 2 The Controversial/Mix

HBOMax is now being called Max

Writers & Actor strikes having an impact

Justin Roiland allengacence 

11:38 - Part 3 The Bad

DC Films didn’t do well (Shazam: Fury of the Gods, Blue Beetle, The Flash & Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom)

Marvel/Disney didn’t have a good year either (Ant-Man 3, The Marvels, Indiana Jones, and the Dial of Destiny)

Jonathan Majors legal troubles

My review/thoughts on season 2 of Netflix Sonic Prime

Note to Parents: Sonic Prime is rated TV-Y7 here in the USA - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13961348/parentalguide/?ref_=tt_ql_stry_4

Didn’t expect Nine/Tails to betray Sonic

No new dimensions for Sonic to visit

00:00 - Intro

02:56 - Part 1 Pro

Best looking 2-D Mario game to date so far

Tough challenging levels of design (especially when the wonder flower is involved)

Yoshi and Nabbit are there for those who have trouble with the difficulty

Definitely getting a Super Mario Bros 3 & Super Mario World vibe to it

08:08 - Part 2 Cons

Outside of Yoshi and Nabbit, all the characters play the same

Somewhat mix their online multiplayer approach
