  • Here's my Bob Marley One Love spoiler review. I've done the review a month later from the original release date to see how the box office would do. $93 Million later, how does it stack up to the other theatrical releases of 2024?

    Also a video of my friends and I attending a party at Lot 45 in Brooklyn last weekend.

  • On this podcast I discuss my favorite quotes from Dean Graziosi's book, 'The Underdog Advantage.'

    My main takeaway from this book is a new perspective on selling. Like many, I need help selling anything and find doing so awkward. But truthfully, we all sell every day and don't notice. When we enthusiastically recommend a favorite TV show, food, song, or type of music to our friends, family, and acquaintances, we are selling. Which, to me, is the most accessible way to sell anything to anyone. Interested in reading the book yourself? Find it through my affiliate link here.

  • Reggaefest.

    I've attended many Reggaefest parties, including a couple of Yacth Fetes and 2022's Blaze party by South Street Seaport.

    Epic League and CJ Milan have taken this party on the road with stops in Washington DC, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Boston, and Toronto. I believe in this brand and can see a future where it goes to Latin America and Europe—potentially even a multi-day cruise.

    My favorite thing about the party is the format. The party is called Reggaefest, and they mostly play Dancehall. There's also Soca, Afrobeats, a little Reggaeton, and Ampiano as of this year.

    They played Hip-Hop in the early ReggaeFest days(a few years ago), but I prefer they don't. Many other parties call themselves Reggae this and Reggae that, but they play close to an hour of hip-hop—false advertising on their part.

    I also love that there are hardly any performances. Great DJs and great music keep us dancing all night long.

    Having attended this party for some time and spending my hard-earned money to do so, I have a couple of criticisms.

    New York Reggaefest has gotten stale.

    Their fabulous DJ lineup keeps the vibes going, but they play the same songs at each party. A playlist that changes very little.

    Another criticism is the same venues all the time. Stage 48 is the main culprit.

    As a fan, I'd like to see a guest DJ at the monthly parties and different changes of venues. Let's do one month in SOBs and one in Irving Plaza—a day party at Knockdown Center or the Elsewhere space in Brooklyn.

    I wish the Reggaefest team continued success, but I haven't attended as many of their parties this year because of this stale feeling. I'd love to continue going, but please give me more variety.

  • Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is Sony Picture Animation's biggest financial success to date. Spider-Verse 2 has almost doubled the global box office of the initial Oscar-winning film.

    Movie pundits say 2018's Into the Spider-Verse run on Netflix helped this unique take on the Spider-Man story, grow a large cult following leading to this current film's winning box office.

    Vulture.com interviewed 4 of the animators who worked on this sequel and said it was a demanding production—working upwards of 11-hour days, up to 100 artists quitting throughout, and having to start from scratch five times due to pandemic-related starts/stops and editorial issues with Phil Lord.

    My thoughts; it was my favorite theatrical release of June 2023, over several other notable franchises, including Transformers, The Flash, and Indiana Jones. It made me yearn for more big-budget, superhero, animated films.

    Visually I noticed it more in this movie than in the first; the mixing of the art styles is incredible-a comic book come to life.

    Examples include the scene in the third act when Gwen talks to her father; the background turns into these pastel-like colors. Spider-Punk is introduced, and his appearance is in a style of a collage alphabet often associated with the punk scene. Shading on Miles's face using Ben-Day dots to convey a dramatic scene. The Spot monologuing and stick figure artwork present in his design.

    Once upon a time, I had aspirations of wanting to illustrate comics. I bought 'How to Draw Comics The Marvel Way' by Stan Lee and John Buscema. I spent hours drawing what I was learning from that book. This film is a love letter to comic book art, which took me back to those days.

    Other notes-anytime you throw in moms and dads relating to their children and kids wanting their parent's support, I get emotional, which happened several times.

    I loved the integration of the past live-action Spider films where you see clips of Andrew Garfield and Tobey Mcguire's turns as Peter Parker, which was unexpected and made these Spider-Verse stories part of the overall Sony Spider-Man universe.

    Fast action and, as the first film, contemporary, especially with its Hip-Hop influence and style. Characters such as Miguel O'Hara's Spider-Man 2099, a motorcycling Spider-Woman, and Pravit Prabhakar were intriguing. Potential TV and movie spin-offs? I am here for it.

    My criticisms-Across the Spider-Verse felt longer than it had to be. It did what 20 years ago, Peter Jackson's LOTR Return of the King, did and had multiple endings. It kept going on and on.

    There should also be an epilepsy warning. The flashing lights and colors might be triggering.

    This animated lane is a fantastic way to tell this Miles Morales story. Preferably he stays here and does not come into live action, but with the popularity of this character, it is inevitable.

    9 out of 10 for me.

  • After watching and enjoying the Super Mario Bros Movie(here's my review), I was motivated to buy a Nintendo Switch. Reliving the nostalgia while watching the film, I wanted to experience the latest generation of Mario Brothers games. Come to find out, most, if not all, of Nintendo's first-party games are still selling at a premium price on the digital store (I prefer digital over cartridges).

    In this video game console cycle, the Switch has sold 125+ million units compared to Playstation 5's 38+ million and Xbox Series X/S' 18+ million units. Granted, the latter two consoles were released three years later, in 2020.

    Nintendo's Online service has older games(NES, SNES, Gameboy, Sega Master System, etc.) and no Switch games.

    The movie has crossed 1.2 billion dollars worldwide and is the first billion-dollar film of 2023. In addition, it is the most money-making video game picture to date.

    As of this writing, Super Mario Bros is now available to view at home, with a price tag of $29.99 to buy and $24.99 to rent.

    I feel Nintendo nickels and dimes their customers. They are the top dog in video games; why can't they be more generous with their legion of fans worldwide? Sony and Microsoft have subscription-based game services, which include various current and older games. First-party titles too.

    When I was younger, there were strictly cartridges no digital downloads. Used copies of Mario, Zelda, and Metroid games on the used/trade game market would be substantially cheaper than retail. Making it economical for consumers who couldn't afford to buy the games brand new at full retail. The counterargument is that the game companies wouldn't make any money on their games sold in that market.

    As an adult, I wasn't much of a Mario fan. I prefer more adult content from a PlayStation or Xbox. But now, having owned the Switch for nearly two months, I'm immensely enjoying the indie games I've purchased on sale at the Nintendo store. I like the handheld and find myself playing it more than my Xbox or PlayStation. Moreso on my commute from work.

    I'm currently playing Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion and enjoying it.

    Come on, Nintendo, give the consumers a break and lower the prices on your older Nintendo Switch 1st-party games or include them in your online service. If you do, I'll be happy to subscribe.

    Here's my spoiler review of 2023's first billion dollar movie, Super Mario Brothers. I also share my opinion on Nintendo as a whole.
