Warning/Disclaimer: there will be flashing effects/colourful effects/rainbow community component/reference to bodily functions and there will be slightly censored adult language references in this content. Disclaimer: I am not referring to a section of our society as cult I am just talking about how it looks and feels like in this project, but then again in the current world we live in I can't help it if some of you get triggered by what I say.

Well this is just propaganda, rainbow community, virtual signalling, horse manure!: Briefly; we meet Martha [Josephina Hauler-Davies:] a 23-year-old disabled individual [severe level of cerebral palsy;] that is a lesbian and she takes us partly through a day of her life involving but not limited to going on a date.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script is only 6 minutes long, but incredibly so damaging to my community of disabled people and for those people that don't know I have a severe level of cerebral palsy myself, so before I receive any backlash; this is very much a case of I know what I am talking about, so if you're going to come at me, make sure you have some idea of what you're talking about at minimum, because I will probably hand your posterior to you on a silver platter within about 2 minutes, I mean I could probably do it in 20 seconds; but I like to give people a sporting chance.

Firstly the whole concept of waking up in this manner of everything is going to be okay today is just a false narrative, when in reality and I do stress in reality which this film seems to be placed in a fantasy world where everyone's dumps come out like candy floss and being happy will get you through every day and we can go to bed having a fulfilling life without too much difficulty; other than worrying about if someone likes me, having access to a venue or/and having problems with a sign that doesn't fully cater to your specific inclusivity.

I mean wow if these were just my problems on a day-to-day basis maybe I could produce a dump out of candy floss to; but from the age of 16 to as of this content being first created in my 40s; dealing with bills, politics and bureaucracy of this standard of life, rejection of any kind as it relates to my disability, mental health - depression, lack of genitals size and/or literally anything else.

Can I just say even in 2026 which trust me when I say 1986, 2026 or any time in the future if you have assistant is required issues of any kind, it is up to the disabled individual in question to telephone up way beforehand or/and do some research on the place in question, basically don't be a complete vagina head and just presume or/and even if they tell you on the phone everything will be fine, until you have gone through the routine once presume nothing.

The fact that she is 23 years old and finds this all the annoying... is completely beyond me based on the grounds when I was 23 years old I was already a seasoned veteran and somewhat she finds a rainbow sign offensive because it says something to the effect of "We Stand Together" or something to this sentiment, but what is important here is she doesn't like the words "Stand." Because that doesn't fully include her; And? Seriously And? At the age of 23 you might want to consider growing up if this is problematic for you...

The fact that by the end of this propaganda piece of manure everything works out right is nauseating really fudgin' nauseating, because it pains an unrealistic reality on average of a disabled person's life, so much so that throughout my life I have had to combat this false narrative of because someone has a support network, that doesn't mean to say every disabled person has a support network or/and a good one at that, so I had to deal with comments like; but you have your family behind you. Wrong, but you have good friends behind you. Wrong, but there is someone out there forever one, you just have to look. Wrong. You have lots of money because of your disability. Wrong; in a nutshell they give you enough money to survive and the more I think about it, the more I think this project just reinforces stereotypes so that so-called normal people can just use them as defence cliches, as to escape from a potentially uncomfortable situation and avoid actually getting to know the real person behind the disability or illness or other and maybe come to the realisation that the public perception about disabled people broadly speaking having an easy life on benefits is 100% false and those that push is narrative are in essence financially gaining from the aspect of; if we take more benefits away from the most vulnerable which in essence is much easier instead of going after the wealthy, because we hold the purse strings of the benefits system and not forgetting they can't fight back.

Character developments, performances and voice performances; in conjunction with everything I have said so far; these character types are incredibly weak in fact a pile of manure would be a much better description; yet again they are highly unrealistic as everything has the order of even though things go wrong in the end everything is alright; as you can probably guess this is the biggest issue I have with this project, to the point where I am getting infuriated by ignorance.

Because I have been disabled for 40+ years at this point and those of a significant disability or illness or other would agree with me on some level at minimum; there are two types of disabled or ill or others; there are those that deliberately live in sheltered life or you have someone like me that lives between two worlds the normal world and the disabled/others and yes there are those that need to be protected from the real world for their own good.

But by and large as this film shows live in a sheltered life where everything is safe and what I can see there are no major threats or disagreements or anything to upset the fragile nature of this landscape/mentality is a dangerous way to live a life as they don't learn skills to deal with things or deal with any kind of negativity and/or someone so forth so the whole character developments, I believe it to be highly dangerous for this project to float the idea that for an example if I was a member of the rainbow community on any on any level that I would be entitled to this level of support and safety, which let’s call it for what it is shall we; implications to coercive behaviour strategy;as in do you think the selection of people would make this effort for anyone else outside of their community? Hell no, so it kind of implies that join us and you will feel respected, heard and wanted; if you wanted to make some elements of the rainbow community sound like a cult; good job here, just the record I am saying it sound like it; I am not saying it is and finally the performances and voice performances are poorly acted on any level or any form as well.

This film receives: 1/10, this film is poor; now the person I watch some of this content also had the unfortunate mishap to see this project as well and as we are two salty veterans as it comes to this lifestyle; they said and I am paraphrasing here; that it was embarrassing and I just went with it was manure.

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/transformation/robotics/disintegrating/medical and adapted adult language reference.

After this tragic mishap: basically; Dog Man/other characters [voiced by Peter Hastings:] he is a hybrid of his namesake, he protects and serves the people of Ohkay City; we get to witness and experience what happens for a short time in this location.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 89 minutes film is let's be honest very much like the art, comedy and action all very much quick paced, lively and ever so slightly off the wall; it is absolutely harmless, but it is very suitable for me to say; it is off the wall, what with appealing vibrant and captivating  art, with the comedy using the free-flowing nature to the comical such as for the older generations our lead character briefly playing some music to the old folks and one old folk for an office chair and much later on another character adapting John McClane's [Bruce Willis] quote Yippee-ki-yay mother lover: all I can suggest is their intention it gets used but as I have already indicated this sentiment and the speed pattern will be there but they have obviously this adapted it to fit in with this film and finally roughly around or just before the final quarter we have these robots doing battle basically like the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in the sense of robots and collateral damage.

Character developments and voice performances; on both counts; they follow or/and become their characters such as voice performances, so at this moment in time theoretically and completely guessing here with a little bit of facts just looking this up; there are 10 main books and 4 spin-off, so 14 in total they could maybe make a sequel or/and safely a trilogy in film form; so as it relates back to this film; it is very much the foundation level of character work and simultaneously voice performance in print, but if they want to make any more films they will have to bring back this cast as they very much make these characters their very own

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; as I have already referenced in one way or another, this film is just harmless enthusiastic madness, as this project is built for yes young families, but it does have that universal appeal to all. There are extra little bits and pieces roughly around the closing credits, the only downside to this film is as of when this content was first created; this film doesn't have any awards accredited to its name being Winners or/and Nominations.

In-depth Predictions/Other elements for NXT The Great American Bash 2026 by AverageMansReviews

Just a heads up: now is it just me or is there a distinctive lack of creative on these match stipulations? Because man this card is lacking the Wow factor.

Arianna Grace vs. Champ Wren Sinclair; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Speed Championship: I don't have much to say here as I know nothing about them, so I'm just going to go with a retain here.

Shiloh Hill vs. Tristan Angels; Singles Match: as I know absolutely nothing about these two wrestlers, I'm just going to go with the American wrestler over the British wrestler, just because he has home-field advantage.

DarkState's:  Dion Lennox vs. Saquon Shugars; Single Match: let's keep this brief shall we; I fully expect his stablemates to get involved to assist with victory

Tatum Paxley vs. Champ Zaria; Singles Match for the NXT Women's North American Championship: this match/match outlay is just going to be in essentially a squash match, based on how they are now choosing to present Zaria.

Tavion Heights vs. Champ Myles Borne; Singles Match for the Men's NXT North American Championship: I think they might do a championship drop here to create some headlines to control the social media landscape, based on the fact that AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2026 is happening on the same day

Kendal Grey vs. Champ Lola Vice; Singles Match for the NXT Women's Championship: I fully expect the championship to remain where it is after this match/event.

Naraku vs. Champ Tony D'Angelo; Singles Match for the NXT Men's Championship: like I referenced earlier I can see them very easily doing a championship drop to create headlines coming out of this event to control or try to control the wrestling Internet landscape, but also taking into consideration that as of this content being first created Naraku isn't the most youngest of wrestlers to be performing on this brand, based on he is a debuting/incoming wrestler at the age of 39 years old, so give him a run with this championship now to then after this his destination is the main rosters

Warning: now and again there will be some censored adult language references; like I actually give zero fudges about the WWE product right now, I was thinking I would just say that from the very beginning so that I don't have to repeat myself and I am being honest with you from the outset and yes it has been this way for some years now, but even more so over more recent times.

Iyo Sky vs. the WWE World Champion The Judgement Day's: Liv Morgan; Queen of the Ring tournament final: The winner will be crowned "Queen of the Ring" and earn a world championship match at SummerSlam: so let's just put all the significant gold or/and title on Morgan and completely shut down not one but two women's divisions at the same time, I mean she has done absolutely nothing with one championship, I mean whilst we're at it let's bring back bra and panties matches, I mean let's go the whole hog and introduce tampons on a pole match, I am sure that will go down well in Saudi Arabia and get people watching the WWE content, because how this match is probably going to go is mess interference from the Judgement Day and that is it, like I referenced in my opening section I really don't care for the WWE right now so as you can clearly see I really wasn't joking.

Ricky Saints vs. Champ Trick Williams; Singles Match for the WWE Men's United States Championship: I don't care, give me, Carmelo Hayes vs. Champ Williams and then we will talk other than that stop wasting my time.

Jade Cargill vs. Champ Tiffany Stratton; Singles Match for the WWE Women's United States Championship: either outcome I couldn't care less, we have a choice between someone that can't keep hold of their hair, so how is she going to handle the responsibilities of being champion again which was lacklustre to begin with or the current champion which like every other run on the main rosters; it has been lacklustre through and through... it's almost like TripleH has lost interest in actually booking anything, so we are really spoilt for choice here.

The Vision's: Bron Breakker [with Paul Heyman] vs. Seth Rollins; Cage Match: simply put I just don't care either way, so yes I fully expect multiple interference on both sides, but hopefully after this; this is going to be done and over with.

Oba Femi vs. The Bloodline's: Jey Uso; King of the Ring tournament final; The winner will be crowned "King of the Ring" and earn a world championship match at SummerSlam: well this is very predictable; let's just have more interference from multiple characters including but not limited to Brock Lesnar; set-up to Lesnar vs. Femi for SummerSlam and consequently King Uso vs. Cody Rhodes for his championship likewise at SummerSlam, but I hope you realise that this is going to be much worse than what you probably think and I know I'm not the only one thinking like this.

Walter vs. Sami Zayn vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; Triple Threat Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship: where Zayn is here to take the loss, to set up Walter vs. The Bloodline's: King Uso vs. Champ Cody Rhodes for yet another triple threat match for his championship at WWE SummerSlam 2026, where King Uso will become your new Undisputed WWE Champion. So in essence not only have they pretty much locked down the women's divisions, they will also do it to the men's main roster as well, literally putting The Bloodline front and centre even more so than before across the entire main roster landscape, so if you're like me that over recent years has found this whole saga of The Bloodline insufferably boring, I think it is safe to assume that we haven't seen anything yet, so consequently it will be The Bloodline vs. Cody Rhodes, Walter [his motivation for aligning himself with Rhodes is simply because he has been robbed twice from becoming the new Undisputed WWE Champion thanks to The Bloodline, so there is no love between him and Rhodes whatsoever, but he just simply has a bigger issue with The Bloodline right now] with other members of their team to be announced for WWE Survivor Series: Men's WarGames 2026 and if I ever made it crystal clear over the years; if I am anywhere near remotely in the right ballpark I'm going to chocolate fudgin' hate this with a passion. I have just realised we are going to see a almost déjà vu where everyone knows by now Mr. H likes to create moments or/and recycle pops, so there is nothing to stop them going with the narrative of Rhodes needs one more member... but we won't find out who it is until moments before the match begins... here comes... CM Punk to return again and WWE Survivor Series: WarGames like he did in 2023, talk about recycling something just to get a diminished pop.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Principal 1987 by AverageMansReviews

The Principal 1987 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time

Warning: there will be flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/drugs/sexual assault/medical/references to many things, I am not being lazy here I just can't remember all of them such as cultural/population divided.

Brandel High School: briefly; this English teacher gets a job promotion Rick Latimer/Principal Rick Latimer [James/Jim Belushi:] well kind of he gets arrested for in a nutshell for this situation at a bar, so he has the choice of taking the job or it is indicated nothing. But this high school is the worst ever it is in the slums and it is an urban high school, so in essence they have sent in a screw up to sort out other troubled or/and lost teenagers in this heavily dilapidated high school location. Jake Phillips [Louis Gossett Jr.] he is the head of security for their school and once was a pupil here.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing for this 109 minutes film is good, but it does have one quite obvious technical problem, the sound volume is an issue from the perspective of either way the background music is quite loud, whilst by comparison with a dialogue exchanges so if you put the volume up to hear the dialogue exchanges you may want to be prepared for the sudden loud music and yes as I was born in the 1980s I am aware, I am very much aware that in some films these technical issues or I am seeing it as a technical issue, but it may have just been a case of working with what they had and keeping in budget at the time of filming, we also have the usage of montages as well.

Character developments, performances, comedy and action; the character developments are very good versions of what you expect them to be of a dilapidated school with a lawless environment and characters to match with coming-of-age in some way or another, likewise the performances are excellent, and based on they are not the most polished performances, but in this location and environment you would lose the authenticity of these characters/performances if they were performed to highly anyway, they needed something gritty or/and not willing to tolerate either a new principal in town or/and what is happening in this lawless location; but a special mentions has to go out to Belushi, Gossett Jr. and Rae Dawn Chong as Hilary Orozco: she is a history teacher at the school: between this trio they really do support one another and lead this cast excellently. The comedy comes from dealing with this or being in this environment, so the comedy is mature based and the action as a result of dealing with these situations, so to the younger generations that read my content; yes you will see people in authority putting their hands on these younger characters, but remember this the punishment will always fit the crime and no I am not trying to justify it to you, but it is how you turn responsible teenagers into responsible adults hopefully.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; it is well worth a watch at some point in your life there are only two major disappointments about this movie; the first is; it only made $19.7 million at the box office from a budget of $11 million and it could have done with a little bit more actually a lot more recognition in the way of awards be it winners or nominations; so as things are we have 1 Nominee accredited to this film in the form of; Young Artist Awards 1988 Young Artist Award Best Young Actor in a Motion Picture - Drama Jacob Vargas: as Arturo Diego: a good kid that can't read too well, by today's standards he is dyslexic.

Warning/Disclaimer: there will be flashing effects/colourful effects/drowning/shooting/drugs/terrorism/animal cruelty/robotics/torture/kamikaze/suicide/disintegrating/decomposing/vehicle crash/vehicle hit/medical and there will be some censored adult language references in this content. Disclaimer; anything I say about race is not based in racism as it is a non-racist point or/and prospective, but obviously it will be based in race and yes this will make perfect sense when you get to that point in this content.

I hate this fudgin' film with a passion: briefly; Spectre are back for Colonel James Bond/other alias [Daniel Craig:] a retired MI6/007 Agent that is trying to build a life after MI6/British Secret Intelligence Service, but seemingly Spectre is right under his nose, which eventually leads him to finish what he started.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script and consequently about 90% of this film is absolute garbage; straight off the bat this instalment of this franchise is just way,  way, way too long at roughly 163 minutes; no way in hell should this film be this long someone anyone should have taken a chainsaw to this film in the editing room, because as things are; things are incredibly fragmented to the point where yes we have Bond his thing in one way or another it jumping off things, vehicle crashes, being dark and leaving somebody behind because they know he doesn't have a choice and not forgetting the legendary and infamous James Bond style opening credits sequence as it relates to the action and art, so I thought the knowledge that there are some positives to this film, but the negatives are so overwhelming that it is very much a counterbalance situation.

The framework and pacing is heavily inconsistent and heavy chunks of this film the performers are left to try and generate some momentum/on-screen chemistry which is at best fleeting and at worst non-existent and everything in the middle really depending where you are in the film and because this film is so long you will feel every agonising chemistry and on top of that; because the chemistry is let's be honest being consistent the scenes will feel really hollow from time to time as this scene or sequence does feels much bigger because of the hollow nature of it

Character developments and performances are broadly speaking adequate to fulfil their purpose which includes exposition, seeing an old adversarial and not forgetting so utterly dumb and so harmful to this film and move along the franchise regardless of who owns the rights now it actually made my brain damage so much worse which medically minus physical ageing would confound medical science.

So before Craig came back to do one more instalment there were talks of there being a black James Bond and basically everyone over a certain age said no, for myself as long as they are British or/and mixed heritage I don't mind, but perhaps stay away from being German, I am not being racial or racist, it is just I am very much aware of James Bond's background meaning World War II being a strong component to James Bond and as World War II was a real thing let's be respectful to all regardless of side that gave their lives, it just feels like a little bit of bad taste.

But this film decided to let's be honest very unwisely chose to raise two middle fingers to their fan base, by giving his numbers to a woman and not only that a black woman; I refuse to put her name in this content based on the grounds she is a good person of what I know, she works hard and it does feel like she is being used as a political virtual signalling pawn, so this is not on her, I just refuse to talk about this immaturity and if you're wondering why I am taking this route, it is because at some point in the film it does something what I perceived to be unforgivable based on giving this honour and designation/alias to this black character she decides to then give it back to Bond, so on one hand we have all this virtual signalling garbage and then on the other hand we have this black character giving up this prestigious designation and giving it back to a white man even though early on in the film she was persistent to find out his designation as if she would be angry if he took it back or out rank her and here she is giving it back to him, without a convincing or in-depth character building to make this look other than what it is which is formulaic at best; this is just so ugly. But allow me to say this one more time I have no problem with her, I have a massive problem with this script and how it has been written, I just wanted to shield her and put 100% focused on the point based on the script and nothing and repeat nothing more or nothing less.

So where do we go from here? Because they are now made a massive hole in the franchise were we have had a black 007, but not a black/other ethnic background of James Bond and on a quick side note even if I was a woman there was no way in hell I would want a female version of James Bond in the James Bond franchise... what to actually follow this misogynist plus other personality traits... no thank you. Now I'm not saying we can't have a female equivalent which could cross over into his world, but give the female lead equivalent a chance to stand on its own two feet and let it succeed or fail on its own merits, instead of being tied around the neck with its massive baggage and other expectations.

This film receives: 1/10, this film is poor; other than that though massive opening section with the action to the theme song and accompanying James Bond style opening, this film is nothing but a hot steaming pile of manure, in my honest yet incredibly frank opinion as the distinction of now being the worst James Bond movie of all time, yes I am also including Casino Royale 1967 [yes, I know it is a mixture between a parody and a spoof of James Bond; but it is harmless by comparison to this film;] I mean the person I watch some of this content with said I am paraphrasing and in a nutshell version here; this is not a James Bond film and I would have to concur with that assessment, I mean this film was released in 2021 it is now 2026 as of this content being first created and I have to find the ending line of something to the effect of James Bond will return a bit of a joke at this going rate as we are nowhere near close actually having a James Bond to carry on the franchise under new leadership of Amazon MGM especially after this pile of vomit. Yet somehow this film has some awards accredited to its name such as 54 Winners which includes but not limited to Academy Awards, USA 2022 Oscars Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures (Original Song) Billie Eilish (music and lyric by) Finneas O'Connell (music and lyric by) For song "No Time to Die." 75 Nominees which also includes but not limited to going back to the same award ceremony/event Best Achievement in Visual Effects Charlie Noble Joel Green Jonathan Fawkner Chris Corbould [in total it has 2 Oscar Nominations.]

The Birdcage 1996 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time

Warning/Disclaimer: there will be flashing effects/colourful effects/rainbow community component/transformation/political opinions could cause offence animal cruelty/medical/reference to suicide, racism and underage activity and anything I say about this film that may or may not be questionable, let's just keep in mind that I have seen this film and consequently just talking about in the context of the film itself.

These two very different families are going to be one family sooner: briefly; the groom comes from a very colourful background; a gay father Armand Goldman [Robin Williams:] he owns a drag club: The Birdcage alongside his life partner; Albert Goldman/other characters [Nathan Lane:] this person is a drag act and is definitely the feminine one in his relationship. The bride; comes from a very straight laced family; so much so her father is Senator Kevin Keeley [Gene Hackman:] a highly respected politician, that for a while need to get away from this scandal which by association he now finds himself in, let's hope he doesn't find himself in any more scandals as he is currently up for re-election and is married to Louise Keeley [Dianne Wiest:] the placid one most of the time.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script mainly focuses on a very short time in these characters lives and then again sometime later underneath the closing credits, the framework and pacing of this 117 minutes is good.

Comedy and character developments; Albert spends some time trying to teach his beloved how to be much more masculine, so he can act like an uncle of the family instead of his life partner just for tonight; but as you will see being masculine for Albert at any point being masculine is not easy for him, he can just about pull off a John Wayne walk, being feminine is for Albert comes very natural as a duck to water; which as you will see is a good thing as on this night where everything could go wrong, does go wrong and for my parts Albert/another character just about holds things together.

Art, character developments and performances; the art; costumes and accessories are immaculate they have done a fantastic job capturing the drag incredibly high standards of outfits and accessories and everything else really, broadly speaking the character developments and performances are either somewhat flamboyant, in the middle as in understanding or rigid to an old way of thinking; but then again if you don't have all three of these different perspectives this film wouldn't work, with excellent performances from the heart of this cast to bring this incredibly crucial moment in two people's with the right amount of warmth, love, catastrophe, comedic chaos, rigidness and a certain element of disbelief and coldness.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; for it is still relatively modern approach to; parents still wanting to do the best for their child even though the parents are the same sex, I went to go and see this film on its 30th anniversary with the person I watch some of this content with at the cinema and yes this film does have an ongoing sequence underneath some of the closing credits. This film also has some awards accredited to its name such as 7 Winners; which includes but not limited to Actor Awards 1997 Actor Outstanding Performance by a Cast Robin Williams Gene Hackman Nathan Lane Dianne Wiest Hank Azaria Christine Baranski Dan Futterman and 25 Nominees would also include but not limited to; Academy Awards, USA 1997 Oscar Best Art Direction-Set Decoration Bo Welch Cheryl Carasik
