Ah, this was fantastic! I think I like this the best of all three movies. Well, hmmm, I dunno. The first one is really good. I liked this better than Thor 1 and The Avengers, the only other MCU movies I've seen, certainly! And it was randomly a Christmas movie! I had not expected that. This movie feels really dense; there's a ton of subplots that could have been expanded on (like, what was up with the giant Christmas rabbit? "Iron Patriot"! The Vice President being arrested at the end - I somehow entirely missed that plot point beforehand). It's good – it makes it feel complicated and real. I liked the big twist, and it continues the series's theme of the enemy being more the "War on Terror" than "terrorism".
After that I started The Feast of All Saints, which – did you know there was a movie of this? I did not know there was a movie of this. I watched about fifteen very confusing minutes while going "What is happening? What are they talking about? Who are all these people?" before realizing that somehow I was watching Part Two. I'll have to find Part One and try again.
Parks & Rec
5.02: Soda Tax. Two years ago I became obsessed with Parks & Rec and binge-watched the entire thing. Then I caught up to currently airing episodes and promptly forgot to keep up. Now that I'm two seasons behind it's time to binge-watch again! This was very sweet, I love everything about April/Andy, Chris is hilarious, and Tom is my favorite.
