Since this technically marks the end of the 365-day challenge(I will be watching tomorrow), I'm going to put the long write-up here.

I want to start by thanking the Happening, you weren't just a movie for the whole year. You were a year of my life. It was rained 31 times, snowed 9 times, while I was watching you.
My return to going to the after (about) a 20 year absence. My first concert(Westlife), my first trip to a city(Boston),…

While it may not be as entertaining, when one isn't mind numingly unset, it's still a lot of fun.

Fear Street: 1666

2021

★★★½ Watched

At least these movies understood witchs were hung in Salem not burned, burning was done in Europe.

A bit of a messy finale but was satisfactory. How 1666 was structured was interesting.

All in all, a pretty fun time with this trilogy.
