Melanerds

I’m back!! There has been little to no buzz about “Onward” from Pixar and “Abominable” from Dreamworks but after watching them there are more than a few similarities. I point out my likes and dislikes about both animated films as they deal with grief.

Everything is indefinitely postponed this month which makes all of the news I had to share sad news! With our entertainment offerings being pushed to this winter and beyond, what do we have to look forward to?? I share some of my current favorites from Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and more!

We love a good movie and I am all about binging a tv show so why not share my thoughts on these (not so new) offerings. I take on “John Wick 3” and the High Table then try to get through “I am Not Okay with This” on Netflix. Spoilers ahead!

What better way to come back from being sick than to watch the 2 biggest movies of the month and share with your internet friends! This week I give my review and experiences at “Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey” and “Sonic the Hedgehog”.  Will the action of Gotham’s girl squad beat the retouched face of Sony’s fastest spiny mammal? Listen now to find out!

Netflix just dropped their supernatural horror drama “Locke & Key” so we HAD to talk about it! I share my favorite (and not so favorite) characters, try to figure out the source of their magic, and share something I’m a tiny bit obsessed with. Have you watched Locke & Key? Did you like it? Let us know on Twitter @melanerds1 or on Instagram @melanerds.
