Just one similar fight scene and so many reddit threads comparing lol...

I'm not sure Puss in Boots would be able to defeat pure titans sha...at least from what I'm watching in the movie

Titan skin is super hard and his sword can't penetrate...plus he needs to cut out the entire nape...
However pure titans don't attack animals

For Titan shifters....Puss in Boots doesn't stand a chance at all imo...

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish....8/10


I honestly didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did especially since I'm not a fan of kids animation. But I did enjoy it a lot

They also did well in making the main antagonist so terrifying to Puss in Boots.
The themes of family and friendship were also well done although kinda predictable since I could already tell where they were going with it

For some weird reason I expected some kind of plot twist with the cute dog but then that would have contradicted everything the story established especially with the map tying to his personality. So I'm glad they didn't go with that twist

Only thing I didn't like was the ending
The resolution felt highly underwhelming. I sort of expected more. I get the point was him getting over his fears and also cherishing what he had...but I still expected more from the final battle.

The villain walking away like that with some lame forced explanation felt very weak, and seemed liked an attempt to just keep him alive as a reoccurring villain

Anyway quite a very very enjoyable movie as you said @ Ishilove

You do know who the villain is, right?

Glad you enjoyed it. I am yet to meet anyone who didn't

Death....
It still felt weird the way he left him. He came for someone who thought he was immortal.
The problem is that from their first encounter, Puss in Boots realized his fatality and as such didn't feel that way anymore

It's not really spoilers tbh...or rather just minor...those who want to avoid the little spoilers will avoid the review

What is 'AOT'? Never hoid of the woid undecided

Don't expect much blood. It is very minimal, you vampire tongue cheesy

It really is very good. One of the best I've watched in a long while.

I wish I were you.


I would love to enjoy this masterpiece again without knowing what's going on. I am not an anime fan but this one got me hooked. From the beginning I kept on wandering whats going on till the last episode.

Luckily for me I had 4 season to gorge on. I practically stopped every other thing that time.

Attack on titan 15/10

the villian wolf was my favorite character in the film funny enough.
He was more than a match for puss and his signature whistling was like a death call grin

I don't buy that shït that CBMs are facing a fatigue with audiences. At least one or two CBMs would have easily hit $1bn last year if they premiered in China. 2022 was just a year where other mega franchises turned up and the sleeper hit of Maverick.
I mean 4 CBMs were in the top 10 and all grossed high $750m+. They'd consolidate in 2023 and noise about fatigue would quiet down. I've been hearing of Superhero fatigue since 2015/16, yet here we are. undecided

My prediction for top 10 grossing movies of 2023 in no particular order:


Dune 2
Mario Bros movie
The Flash
Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom
Fast _X_
Guardians of the Galaxy 3
Mission Impossible 7
Transformers: Rise of The Beast
Indiana Jones 5
The Little Mermaid


Notable mentions that has a shot at top 10 but most likely in top 20 includes:

Antman: Quantumania
The Marvels
Blue Beetle
Barbie
Wonka
John Wick 4
Oppenheimer

What people are trying to pass off as fatigue is simply the novelty of the superhero genre finally fading away as it's now settled firmly into the mainstream. 5 years or more ago, Black Adam, in all its averageness, would have made $700m upwards. Currently the audience expects more than average fanfare from the superhero genre and as long as that is delivered, they'll keep patronizing.

Right. Superhero genre will remain firm in today's cinema for the next 10 yrs.
True, BA would have made serious bank in 2016/17.
And yes, audience have expected more quality from CBMs. CBMs are simply now moderating in contrast to the time when it was still growing. So any slow downturn, some ppl will start calling it fatigue. As if na everyday be Christmas. grin No be NWH smash everything smashable just a year ago. Ppl easily forget and chronically suffers from recency syndrome.
Avatar 2 release na, everybody dey twerk for Cameron. grin grin

I haven't seen much hype for The Flash
But I won't be surprised if it truly makes top 10 considering the show surprisingly still has a huge following despite it being utter trash for so many years

The fans of the show alone should make up a good number of movie viewers
