Movies
3. Avengers 2: Age of Ultron (May 1) -- 3 stars
This was an okay movie about LMDs of the MCU cast. They were badly programmed though, like honestly, who on Earth could possibly mistake this film's imposter for Natasha? And Steve? Don't make me laugh.
Hella into the new Avengers lineup though, everyone pray that Marvel actually makes it happen. 3 stars
4. The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (May 10) -- 4 stars
Oh lord, this is why I shouldn't attempt to write up movies weeks after I've seen them. I remember this was quite pretty? Sad ending though. 4 stars
5. Mockingjay Part 1 (May 10) -- 3 stars
I dunno, might be because I was airplane tired but I just didn't feel this a whole lot.
6. Pride (May 11) -- 5 stars
This on the other hand was amazing and is def gonna be in my top ten movies of 2015. I have feelings about solidarity: mainly, it is beautiful and one of the most effective ways to bring about change. Go LGSM!! 5 stars
7. Maleficent (May 23) -- 4 stars
This is definitely one of the top three movies KLM Airlines had available on flight. Maleficent is my truest beautiful occasionally petty daughter and I am so pleased at how stalwartly the movie was on her side. I was baying for the blood of King Trash Heap from his first wanton betrayal but I figured the movie would spare him because 'he's Aurora's father!!!' Disney exceeded my expectations in all the best ways. 4 stars
8. The Hobbit (May 23) -- 1.5 stars
This is not a very good movie but it is an excellent soporific. 1.5 stars
