Let's start at the beginning at Shiz University: basically; Galinda Upland/other name [Ariana Grande-Butera:] she is a very popular student at this University, she meets and shares a dorm room with Elphaba Thropp/another name [Baby: Unknown name/Younger: Karis Musongole/Older: Cynthia Erivo:] she on the other hand is unpopular and different, but eventually these two become friends and eventually Thropp gets invited to Emerald City to meet  The Wonderful Wizard of Oz [Jeff Goldblum:] legend says he is a great and powerful wizard, but sometimes legends can be wrong, but we have Thropp and Upland heading off to Emerald City: which I do hope everything goes okay?

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 160 minutes film is good, well let's be honest Disney have very much gone back to what they know with a very reliable and fruitful outlay of this project; of script, musical number and so on and so forth; even though let's talk about the elephant in the room this film may be long but it doesn't feel like it because there is more than enough happening in one way or another and as I have just indicated the rotation between script and musical number is a useful variety to your have, but it does have some negatives which I will discuss later. But for here and now the framework and pacing has nothing for me to criticise.

Art and action; it is very clear on where I am going to start; they have done a outstanding job bringing this landscape/world to life in all of its glory, including but not limited to the wardrobe and I can see a certain miniature model landscape [that is as much as I am going to tell you; when you see it you will know what I mean] being turned into a Lego set [I mean if it isn't it should be] and moving on from that as I just touched on the musical numbers where mostly beautifully performed and in this first film it does feel like we only really begin to scratch the surface of the action sequences towards the later stages of this film; but at least what we see of them; they are excellent.

Character developments, performances and voice performances; the character developments ranged from really in-depth and well rounded, to reliably good version of what they are meant to be to predominately really shallow and even when they have some character developments; they still come off as phoney to a certain extent as even when this individual has proof in front of them, they still are okay to take another path. So let's start with the glowing positive to this film Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba Thropp/other name; she really does grasp this lead role opportunity and makes her performance as this character her very own; as she is a strong woman that knows herself and does come across as someone that wants to do right, but every time she tries to put yourself out there she ends up getting scorned in one way or another, she can also sing with excellent range and confidence; she should hopefully at the very least be nominated for an Oscar for this performance, but however there is just one thing I didn't like that much; and there was the reference to skin colour as her reminiscences is African-American and she is green so she basically points out; this relative is the right colour. But it is delivered in such a way that; as an Englishman understanding the subtext; I can see and smell on the surface in our context is based on the film, but underneath getting ready sense and feel; is she making reference to real life? It most definitely felt more was being implied here then just on the service, because there is just too much of a punch here.

The rest of the character developments are good versions of what they are meant to be and smoothly fit into the chemistry of the casting now we come onto Barbie Oh apologies I meant to say Ariana Grande-Butera as Galinda Upland/other name; I can't stand these character developments, I mean I get them, I understand them, but that we have done hit the typical popular high school girl character types so hard? Like I said there is some growth at some point, but even after this there isn't much friction or anything, I mean a little bit of friction would have been nice to see that these two women in a character's sense have rubbed off on one another just a smidgen and for me hell no can Grande-Butera sing and if you're wondering the duets are smoothly synced and in beautiful harmony, but Grande-Butera no thank you and the voice performances are all good as well.

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; I think I have made myself clear about this film, it should be noted that person I watch some of the content with doesn't think too highly of Ariana Grande-Butera as Galinda Upland/other name; as this individual felt she was very plastic, but obviously we are still going to say that the sequel. It has some awards accredited to its name such as 3 Winners that includes Santa Barbara International Film Festival 2025 Virtuoso Award Virtuoso Award Ariana Grande and Critics Choice Awards Celebration of Cinema & Television 2024  Actress Award for Film Black Cinema & Television Cynthia Erivo. 5 Nominees that includes Hollywood Music In Media Awards (HMMA) 2024 HMMA Award Best Song - Onscreen Performance (Film) Ariana Grande & Cynthia Erivo Song: "Defying Gravity" and from the same award ceremony/event Best Music Themed Film, Biopic or Musical Jon M.

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects

In this little town Evart, Michigan: briefly we meet this husband-and-wife Jerry & Marge Selbee [Bryan Cranston & Annette Bening:] they are now both retiring Marge has been for some time, in fact we don't know what let's go with some time and Jerry is just about being retired; they are a very balanced couple and have been married for the vast majority of their life; Jerry is a numbers guy whilst his wife is more of a people/street-smart individual, but when Jerry discovers a way to make lots of money, his wife is up for the journey and not only that they take this whole town with them as well.

Generally speaking: this framework and pacing of this 96 minute film is good; as in it settles down and moves at a good pace

Comedy and art; this film has a good-natured to it, with little bits of comedy in it as well, I say it more as first of all of real life events and secondly a light and breezy drama with comedy moments; such as when Jerry purchases these shades which can turn into glasses and vice versa; he just has to flip up or put down what he wants and that specific time or/and when he schools this character that attends Harvard University in real maths; where he mathematically and verbally hands this individual his posterior on a plate. When we have this event near to the end of the project we have these little blub lights: they look welcoming and elegant.

Character developments and performances; the character developments and performances of everyone in the cast are good and there is good chemistry throughout. But let's be completely honest the pairing of Cranston and Bening as Jerry & Marge was very natural and free-flowing, if which I am sure they are; if this is what the real Jerry & Marge were/are like they nailed it; as this couple really do balance each other out and with Rainn Wilson as Bill: he is a shopkeeper that is going through a divorce, seems a pretty normal guy with odd tendencies: so if you know anything about Wilson this kind of role suits him down to the ground, so we have this trio being the driving force.

This film receives: 7/10, this film is good; it is a pleasant little film and there are some real life photos in the closing credits. This film deserves more positive awards accredited to its name other than this one; 1 Nominee Astra Television Awards 2024 Astra TV Award Best Streaming Movie

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/robotics/transformation/slavery/torture/disfigurement/stabbing/shooting/burning

On Cybertron: Iacon City: briefly; we meet these two robots; one by the name of  Orion Pax/other name [voice by Chris Hemsworth:] he wants to do his best for Cybertron by locating The Matrix of Leadership and he has a best friend by the name of D-16/other name [voice by Brian Tyree Henry:] that basically believes in the wall around him; these two are minors doing their part for the collective of Cybertron, whilst Cybertron's leader, Sentinel Prime [voice by Jon Hamm:] he is the leader of this planet and he is searching on the planet surface for The Matrix of Leadership to restore Cybertron's power supply to it once plentiful resource. At one point or another we meet; Captain Elita-1 [voice by Scarlett Johansson:] she is a minor, but a higher level of minor, she is also career focused and she does like dealing with Pax and finally we will meet B-127/other names [voice by Keegan-Michael Key:] let's just say he on a very low level and consequently doesn't have much contact with others and boy howdy does it show as you will see when you go and see this film.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 104 minutes film is really slow to begin with, but eventually it got straightening its feet.

Art, action and comedy at the beginning of this project I was a little bit worried on what I was seeing; the mobility of these characters; well if you have ever owned a PlayStation and/or PlayStation 2; you would know that sometimes you head characters walking around with not the most smoothest walking motion including but not limited to walking into walls; that is what the kind of movement I am talking about in the opening section to this project. But thankfully it stops being a problem more you head into the title. Conversely we get this grainy effect of this back story; this is captivating and from a visual perspective one of the highlights of this film. As you would come to expect from this franchise, the action is consistent; but likewise it does get better the more we progress through this title and for the comedy; I may have laughed a few times, but the problem is; this is a problem when you put a most of your comical bits in your trailers in some way or another, I mean at some point we do get a Gobots reference.

Character developments and voice performances; the character developments are all good, but however I do find the cast voice performances to be this; a very mixed bag of indifferent to that is how they should sound; Hemsworth as the voice of  Orion Pax/other name does very much come across as he is just speaking normal, then maybe the most smallest of changes, when he goes through the changes, but you can still hear Hemsworth as Hemsworth [and yes on my limited knowledge of other Transformers cartoon TV series of the modern day I am aware that sometimes they do this.] But if he is going to be this iconic character then maybe this the sound people should have robotic Hemsworth voice up a bit, if he couldn't do it himself or I should hasten to add if this was even an option or discussed. For long-term Transformers fans I wasn't expecting Hemsworth to at any stretchm to be anywhere near the level of Peter Cullen [in a nutshell the original voice of the other character which let's be honest turn into a legendary voice] and the same could be said for Brian Tyree Henry as D-16/other character name, I had no illusions of him coming anywhere near Frank Welker [likewise as the voice of the other character turn into a legendary voice;] but either way some kind of attention to this massive sticking point would have been nice.

I mean let's be positive for a couple of minutes; Steve Buscemi as Starscream: he is the leader of the Cybertronian High Guard and without giving too much away eventually he sounds like more like his old self; they did the back story to why he sounds the way he does and then we have Laurence Fishburne as Alpha Trion: he used to be one of the Primes, but now he is ancient and wise and for those that may be getting concerned don't worry Jon Bailey as Soundwave: he is a member of the Cybertronian High Guard: I can confirm he sounds as he should, because if he didn't we were going to have massive problems.

But hopefully you can now get a taste of at minimum the mixed bag of voice performances; especially what with this being an animated project you would think they would consider this to be a big component to the product in question; based on voice, mannerism relating to your voice are vitally important and so on and so forth

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; now having said that it does come with clearly some provisos such as I have just pointed out in this content and now the biggest problem is minus the UK releasing this film on 11/10/2024 Australia Sydney released it in on previous and the US were nine days later and somewhere between $75 million-$147 million it has only taken $99 million to to just break even they need another $48 million which is a very tough ask. Full disclosure; I did hear little bits suggesting this before I went to go and see this film, but then again I am going to go and see this film twice as I bought two sets of tickets before seeing it once and I should just give you a heads up there is two extra credit scenes one right at the beginning of the ending credits and the other right at the end of the ending credits.

What a night: briefly; it is coming to the end of high school for these people, they just have a few months left; so we meet Seth [Younger: Casey Margolis/Older: Jonah Hill:] he has a habit of saying what he thinks, he has the best friend by the name of Evan [Michael Cera:] out of the two of them he is the reserved one, they both have interests in these two women that high school; Seth has interest in Julie [Emma Stone:] she invited them to her party and if they can get their hands on the alcohol for it, which Seth agrees so Julie gives him $100 to get the supplies, Evan's interest is Becca [Younger: Laura Marano/Older: Martha MacIsaac:] she tells Evan her favourite drink and I can't directly remember what it was; but I think it was vodka with little golden bits in it. Luckily Seth and Evan have a friend by the name of Fogell/McLovin [Christopher Mintz-Plasse:] that has a fake ID to get the supplies with, mostly in the night Fogell/ McLovin will have his own adventure and trying not to get caught up with Seth and Evan: even though Evan and Fogell/ McLovin have got to tell Seth something at some point.

Generally speaking: the script/storyline, the framework and pacing of this 113 minutes film is naturally escalating chaos with never known what is going to happen next at any stage of this film.

Comedy and action; now I have to be incredibly selective on what references I leave in this content, because they range from immature to mature to adult, so in one sequence we have Seth going through these scenarios in his head on how this situation could go down and we the viewers get to see these different scenarios and even for the early 2000s we get a excellent bit of equality as we get a reference to penises and vaginas: okay, okay at the wrong time of the month, but then again equality is equality and poor Seth at one point or another gets hit by a vehicle, away from this Fogell/McLovin gets to fire off this gun into this vehicle that is already on fire.

Character developments and performances; are all really lively and interesting, with 2000's take on the coming-of-age outlay and here are just some examples; from Evan doing the right thing when someone is being sick or Seth carrying Evans home, even though Seth has consumed a lot of drink himself and the beautifully natural crossroads at the end of the film where without giving too much away one friend goes one way and the other goes the other way, but they still will remain good friends and catch up later.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; as I have probably made this crystal clear at this point; this film is a lively affair with a minimum mature comedy style with real substance as well, I had the pleasure of watching the film at the cinema with the person I watch some others contend with and this individual also enjoyed it, this individual did find this project could be a little bit strange in a pleasant way, but as I said they seem to enjoy it anyway. I did feel a bit bad after watching this film, because without going on and on; it does show that high school people could work things out on their own, without raising this massive alarm and in 2025 and beyond if things don't change, broadly speaking we are robbing the future generations the key skills to develop and deal with things on their own or/and looking after a friend. This film also has some awards accredited to its name; 11 Winners Positive: that include but not limited to ASCAP Film and Television Music Awards 2008  ASCAP Award Top Box Office Films Lyle Workman and Young Hollywood Awards 2008 Young Hollywood Award Exciting New Face Emma Stone. Negative: Women Film Critics Circle Awards 2007 WFCC Award Most Offensive Male Character. 24 Nominees: with also include but not limited to Boston Society of Film Critics Awards 2007 BSFC Award Best Ensemble Cast Tied with the cast of I'm Not There (2007) and Golden Schmoes Awards 2007 Golden Schmoes Coolest Character of the Year 'McLovin'

Warning: there will be censored adult language references.

Real Talking Time:

Let's start from here: Transcript of post Instagram: Ariana Grande wrote/said "I want to check in with Trump voters I have one very genuine question: it's been 250 days, now immigrants have been violently torn from their families and communities have been destroyed, now trans people have been blamed for virtually everything and live in fear, now that freedom of speech is on the brink of collapse for us all - has your life gotten better? Have your groceries gotten cheaper? Has your health insurance premiums gone down? Has your work/life balance improved? Can you take a vacation yet? Are you happier yet? Has widespread suffering of others paid off for you in the way he promised it would, or are you still waiting USA flag emoji" full disclosure I haven't changed any of the words used all I have done is dictate it in a grown-up style instead of someone that quite possibly is in kindergarten with all lowercase.

My question is simple what the hell was she thinking?: Only a brain-damaged recovering vehicle crash victim [yes I can make reference to being brain-damaged; because I am life-term brain damaged myself, but I digress:] would be this fudgin' stupid and a complete moron to post this especially when I have a massive sequel being released in the near future Wicked: For Good 2025 release 21/11/2025.

Okay I am far, far from a Trump liker, but then again if I had a responsibility to make sure that to the best of my abilities that the project of any description was a financial success I would keep my fudgin' mouth shut, to ensure everyone got paid. Because Grande doesn't have to worry about being paid as she would have been given the money upfront, so she loses nothing okay maybe some opportunities in the future, but she is already a millionaire roughly estimated somewhere between $240 million-$250 million [as of this content being first created] and the only way this point still affects her is if she had a stipulation saying in her contract she is entitled to hypothetically 2% of the box office takings.

I mean slightly moving away from this situation, this wasn't the only problem this part 2/sequel face to begin with Grande or/and Cynthia Erivo immature or/and bizarre behaviour as it relates to the media circuit for Wicked 2024 or/and it's success has irritated people: such as the person I watch some of this content with is/was at minimum put off by their behaviour and at the time I remember this person saying something to that effect of if I had seen this before I saw the film, I wouldn't have gone and seen it, me speaking now they are not exactly thrilled to go and see part 2, let's put it this way they are only going because of I am going and we are half way through the story.

But there is more on top of that Erivo was in the lead role of a theatre production of Jesus Christ Superstar 2025 as Jesus Christ, which it doesn't take a genius to work out that this was probably going to irritate people, especially in the USA as there is a wide population of moderate to strong Christian beliefs, I should state yes I am fully aware that any form of art is open to interpretation so my perspective is not racially motivated even though yes absolutely my point is racial based on fact that for the vast majority of the time Jesus Christ has been depicted as a Caucasian man.

Which also as of this content being first created Erivo is worth $5 million, so in essence she doesn't have to worry about money either, which brings me onto my next point; these two women have no concept of the real world one in as of this content being first created 32 years old and the other 38 years old, so they can shelter themselves from the real world and live in the world of their own making, whilst they can do as much virtual signalling manure as they like, but I have one question... I bet they couldn't tell me the price of milk?... I am waiting... yes I can tell you the UK price for two litres of milk between £1.50-£1.60/$2.02-$2.15 [I am quite impressed with myself, I got the ballpark figures correctly:] but my point here is if you don't know the rough ballpark figures then that is in itself a good indication that an individual has very little concept of reality in the real world.

So finally I do expect this continuation/sequel/conclusion to have a financial drop as its predecessor made roughly just over a $756 million at the box office if this project make somewhere in the region of $510 million from a combined total of a budget of $300 million [$150 million each instalment,] then I would say it they got away with one here.

 

In-depth Predictions/Other elements for NXT vs. TNA Showdown 2025 by AverageMansReviews

In-depth Predictions/Other elements for NXT vs. TNA Showdown 2025 by AverageMansReviews

Just a heads up: this will not become a regular thing; but as it is a big thing for next Tuesday 07/10/2025, I will create this content and I do believe that it will be most probably 50-50 booking, with the main event ending in controversy as one member from one side will portray their promotion to join the other.

Mustafa Ali vs. Champ Ethan Page; Singles Match for the NXT North American Championship: my pick is Ethan Page. I just hope this match is given time as this match could be the match of the night.

The TNA Champs The Hardys': Matt & Jeff Hardy vs. the NXT Champs DarkState's Dion Lennox & Osiris Griffin; Winners Take All Match for the TNA World Tag Team Championships and the NXT Tag Team Championships, Everyone is banned from ringside: my pick is the Hardys as I am sure both promotions will not mind having this legendary tag team appear on the WWE/NXT can have the Hardy Boyz appear on their promotion as well as TNA

Women's Team NXT: the NXT Women's Champion Fatal Influence's: Jacy Jayne, Jaida Parker, WWE Women's Speed Championship Sol Ruca & Lola Vice vs. Women's Team TNA: TNA Knockouts World Champion Kelani Jordan, TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship's: The IInspiration's: Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee & Mara Sadè; 4-on-4 Women's Survivor Series Tag Team Match: my pick is Women's Team NXT, just because of 50-50 booking.

Men's Team NXT: the NXT Champion Ricky Saints, TNA World Champion Trick Williams, Je'Von Evans & Myles Borne vs. Men's Team TNA: Mike Santana, the TNA International Champion Frankie Kazarian, The System's: Moose, & the TNA X Division Champion Leon Slater; 4-on-4 Men's Survivor Series Tag Team Match: my pick is Men's Team TNA. I'm guessing here based on Je'Von Evans turning his back on his team consequently turning heel going forward and I can give you motivation on why he does this, because based on my loose understanding, he hasn't been taken seriously for months, so for him to make a surprising turn/big impact this is where I would do it, but hey at least if I am right they may give him a decent push after this, instead of doing the garbage he has been doing

Wasted: Jade Cargill vs. Nia Jax vs. Champ Tiffany Stratton; Triple Threat Match for the WWE Women's Champion: SmackDown 26/09/2025 by AverageMansReviews

Warning: there will be centred adult language references in this content.

Well I tried: meaning I have heard and seen online the negative feedback of this match and I really did try and to go in with the idea of let's see how long it would take to find something I didn't like about it and it just took roughly 13 seconds Nia Jax performs this jumping into Jade Cargill splash with Cargill coming off the ropes and Cargill goes down like a sack of potatoes, so I knew what ever happened next isn't going to be good and before I continue full disclosure I am going to cover my back by saying I have watched the vast majority of this match, because the version I am watching may or may not show the entire match due to breaks of some description.

But I digress; Jax attempts to perform this suplex to the outside nearest the commentators table and Tiffany Stratton goes through the legs and pulled down Jax: the only reason I bring this up is to point out; you know when you get that feeling that they are either moving to quick and no one is really being the ring general and following the script and keeping everything together, regardless of what I know about this match slot, based on my viewing experience watching this match and producing this content roughly at the same time pausing to do it, I am not surprised that things went south.

Stratton performs this really sloppy kind of pushing Jax's shoulder into the top right ring post, Stratton and Cargill try this move which I have no idea what it was meant to be which turns into a pin combination: this is just really sloppy. Booker T. acknowledges he almost called Michael Cole Vic Joseph.

Jax pulls Cargill underneath the bottom rope as she is running off them, to drag her and me nearest the commentators table: if Jax left it any longer she wouldn't have reached Cargill, yet again this is really sloppy work here.

What is this absolute manure?: You clearly have Jax and Cargill discussing the next incoming spot; clearly getting into the right spot then Stratton coming over the ropes to perform a suicide dive to the outside where she screws up as a foot gets caught: this really is amateur hour on both sides of this sequence Cole making reference to the fact that Stratton made a mistake and I have just realised that Jax for the first time in this match hit Cargill in to the steps or as Cole says into the post: which this is important for later on.

I have had enough now Jax performs a double clothesline on both of her competitors I see she hasn't learned about using less force entry does this really stupid dance afterwards.

Between the three of them they couldn't even get the mechanics of a double superplex from the top right turnbuckle on Jax to look confident [they even had the grapefruits to replay it from a different angle and is still look bad] and a little time later we have the crowd going this is awesome which I beg to differ.

Cargill goes in for a Kevin Owens style power bomb on Stratton: which looks it again unsurprisingly sloppy, but luckily enough Stratton turns it into a hurrincanrana.

Cargill performs Jaded on Stratton: you would think Cargill would feel at home performing this move as it is a finisher, but from the reversal into this move and the execution is just so ugly, time to rearrange the commentary table with Cole saying thanks.

Now this is where this match slot goes from amateurish into plain ugly Cargill tries to lift Jax again and yet again Jax hits Cargill's face into the steps were at some point Cole makes reference to the fact that Cargill is busted out.

We have a steps sport where Jax set up to perform a suplex with her comments of game over dude I mean her bleed with Cole somewhat cleaning up on commentary saying game over folks: this is what I have grown to expect from Jax, with Cargill reversing this into a samoan drop which doesn't look comfortable or easy to pull off and with Cargill clearly looking angry saying something to the effect of it is my time and T. bringing it up on commentary as well with the referee: Daphanie LaShaunn checking on Cargill at this point things are getting really messy and let's hope Cargill isn't out for too long with this facial injury, but knowing the WWE as I do they will probably make it into another element of a storyline/feud which at this point is very much painting over the cracks of Jax is a liability, so it probably will happen again and again, before people start saying accidents happen in the ring and if it was just a little bit of blood I would regard this as it happens, but when your face looks as if someone has just squirted tomato sauce/tomato ketchup on your face, then there is a clear problem, [this is where I should point out if you go to WWE they have cut out the controversy: but I will just go somewhere else.]

Basically: everyone was late/no one took responsibility out of the three wrestlers on this controversial spot and as far as I can tell LaShaunn tried to manage it, even though she has apologised for this situation, when she really didn't need to, yes 99.9% of the time I would be on this botch like a rash, but in this one rare situation, she had a lot to deal with, so as a last resort you try to fix the situation and manage it, at the time at least someone took someone responsibility for this shower of manure, so what I am saying nicely or as nicely they can at least someone had the grapefruits to stand up and be counted when the chips were down.

It is about time that everyone calmed down, because the reality is simple no one is going to get fired, because if they were Jax would have been gone twice over by now in her career minus leaving the WWE, yes to a certain extent the but stops with her mainly for two reasons; because she is a veteran by experience/age she is automatically put in to the role of ring general and on top of that she has a history of hurting people in the ring and for the other two in one way or another I have seen enough of them to come to the same conclusion; individually they are both as good as the ring general you put them with in any capacity be it opponent or tag team partner and finally for LaShaunn I hope someone got to her and says something to the effect of you did good with what you had to deal with. I would recommend if she is in a similar situation or anything like this again; to quickly make a decision to go to the blindside of the pin fall: that way she has some plausible deniability, I know by doing this she will get criticism anyway, for being out of position, but in these situations they serve a purpose in a nutshell the match must continue, I know her job is to be in on the theatre of wrestling, protect the talent but she can also protect herself a little as well, But the WWE hierarchy should be giving her hopefully high praise for attempting to go on the fly and bringing this match home.
