Finally watched those Dune movies. They're really good. If you're a fan of fantasy and sci-fi hooking up and blurring the lines between the two genres a bit, this should be right up your alley. My only complaint / wish is that I'd maybe waited for a 3rd movie before watching because they're blatantly just parts of a bigger story and not that satisfying on their own.
Also finally watched Barbie last night. That was also very good. Slightly bittersweet considering that a big part of the plot was the Barbies stopping the Kens from destroying democracy. Not at all a fan of the ending where Barbie becomes a real girl though. Felt like that was kinda unnecessary and had nothing to do with anything else that the movie was about.
Edit: oh and I also finally watched that Mashle anime (this was a week of getting through random things that have been on my list forever) and it was funny as hell and I liked the overall message and shit but it's not the kind of thing that I would normally seek out and watch of my own accord. Very much a 'kids' (or maybe teen) anime show with a magic school and shit. The non-binary character that I watched for was cool as fuck though.
