Article Two, “section five” of the United States Constitution is unveiled to the vice president, who keeps it secret and uses it as a leverage for extrajudicial power using one agent and a dude in her basement.
A mediocre show. It started episodic with no story arc, but then grew a weak one.
This show was cancelled after one season. I can see why.

Some sort of time machine thing is discovered by an idiot and time machiney things happen because of paradoxes and a murder spree of intrigues and stuff.
I don’t think I paid close enough attention to understand what the fuck was going on. It wasn’t bad as such, but it was distractingly-overdubbed Kiwi-ese. Everything about it was fair, except for bits of the plot not grabbing me, and the speaking. The speaking thing is kind of important for me.

The world, having gone to shit for some reason, has no guns for some reason, and, in a world nothing like Mad Max – (1979 movie), things happen for various reasons.
It’s a manly man man show, with fighting and stuff, though it does have some sort of fantasy fiction quietly woven in. It seemed fair, but I struggled to get through season one and just didn’t care after a couple of episodes of season two.
Loosely based on Journey to the West, attributed to Wu Cheng’en.

A kid goes mad and then vigilante after witnessing the murder of his mother.
This is nothing like batman, honest. This is an awkward movie that would have been better off cut-down and presented as a series pilot. A series made of this would, of course, have failed. While this movie does present a better angle for the insanity behind vigilanteism, it’s lacking overall. I don’t empathise with the character at all, which I think is the entire point of this angle of movie.

About stupidity. For some reason.
I don’t see a point to watching this. At best it’ll probably go into events or trends or whatever that reveals stupidity. It’s telling me the things I live as though I’m not aware of them.

A documentary that follows Jack Charles for seven years.
A thoughtful movie that focuses more on his fallen-lifestyle than his rise, success, fall and recovery. Though it was not its intention to, I find this movie reveals a lot about how fallen men are treated. No respect, no concern, no support. Acting out and desperation are treated as crimes, not cries.
While Jack is notable, and Bastardy won the 2009 AFI Award for Best Feature-Length Documentary, this film has no Wikipedia entry. I feel that says a lot.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1524134/ Orcs resurface into and threaten a national park. While definitely a B-movie, this is well-written and well-acted. It doesn’t really have comedy like most B-movies though, so it doesn’t “work” all that well. Still, I think it’s worth a watch. See also:
Entertainment > Movies > (on Wikipedia) An assassin, that everyone knows, does some assassiny things but everyone knows him. This is basically a long intro to a video game. While not bad, it’s not good. It is rife with over-acting and it felt confused to me. I didn’t stay interested. I see there are other shorts, but I’m not going to watch them.
(on Wikipedia) Though an author tags along with the police because a particular detective is particularly hot, it turns out he’s actually helpful. I adore this series, even though it gets repetitive later on. If I get to re-watching things, I’ll add notes.
