Lilo & Stitch (2025)

While I never saw the full movie, I saw enough clips on YouTube to see why most people agree movie remakes don’t get as unnecessary (let alone bad) as 1998’s remake of the Hitchcock masterpiece Psycho

Apparently, when asked why he did the (nearly) shot for shot remake in the first place, director Gus Van Sant responded “So no one else had to.” This mindset is the only silver lining I can think of for Disney with their live action remakes, whether good or bad, and the remake of Lilo & Stitch falls in the latter category.

A Minecraft Movie (2025)

From what I remember, it was a mix of the kids at my church, my little brother Jackson, and (mainly) my cousin Cooper that introduced me to the world of Minecraft.

There was something about the game that just made digging and building so refreshing. Had I stuck with it, I am sure I would have made many a great thing. Then, of course, Cooper poured lava over the movie theater I constructed in the sky that took me an hour and a half. Sigh.
