Power Rangers Review: "The Power Transfer"
The second season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers definitely featured a lot of huge moments, almost too many to count. The season started with Lord Zedd becoming the new Big Bad, and later on, Tommy Oliver's Green Ranger days were officially numbered. We wouldn't be sans Tommy for long, as he returned as the White Ranger and the new leader of the Power Rangers.

My Top 10 Favorite Coldplay Songs
#1 - Fix You, Released 2005, X&Y Album Fix You is a song that is very near and dear to my heart. I learned to play it on the guitar when I was 12 years old and it was always one of my dad's favorites. It's a beautiful yet surreal song about offering support and guidance to those in the throws of grief. While the beginning alludes to feelings of regret and emotional exhaustion, trying your best but not succeeding, by the end, we are reminded to never give up. Healing and love can always be found, even in the darkest times, just know "lights will guide you home."

Zoey's Extraodinary Playlist?
Can I be totally transparent? Yes? Okay, I haven't really been that interested in anything I have absorbed on television or the internet in years. To be quite frank, art however, subjective it always turns out to be has really been lacking for me, personally, as a viewer of the craft. Ever since the pandemic, it feels like, nothing seems to be interesting or entertaining. Everything seems almost dull or is trying a bit too hard to be something it's clearly missing the mark in.

The History of Sound
The History of Sound is a well-made, beautiful film with fine, touching performances. I defy anyone to disagree with that. It is a film that is difficult to fault. But it is also difficult to love. Ironic given that a central plot line is the difficulty of love for two young men, who should be made for each other.

Spongebob Reviews
In this episode "Tea at the Treedome" I will be discussing the third segment of the first episode of Spongebob Squarepants. It aired alongside "Help Wanted" and "Reef Blower" on May 1, 1999. I will not be a separate review on "Reef Blower" as it was two minutes long and it had no real dialogue other than the subtitle "You" coming from Spongebob. The short segment is about Spongebob using a reef blower, which is a sea version of a leaf blower. And this happens because Squidward throws a shell from his lawn onto Spongebob’s. He is understandably not happy at it and gets his reef blower to blow it back onto Squidward’s lawn, which he successfully does after several tries. All it took was the reef blower blowing sand everywhere, the sand being sucked up by the reef blower and the reef blower exploding, causing the sand to fly all over Squidward’s house. Now onto the episode "Tea at the Treedome", as I mentioned before it marks the debut of Sandy Cheeks, voiced by Carolyn Lawrence, also known as the voice of Cindy Vortex from the Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius franchise. Carolyn Lawrence uses a Southern drawl, which is significant for Sandy as the character is from Texas. It has been long stated that Sandy and Spongebob are meant to be just friends, despite mutual feelings and sometimes attraction, but it goes no further.

Spongebob Reviews
In the episode that started it all, which became an influence to animators and writers throughout the 2000s going into the 2010s and put its network into full gear, I want to talk about one of the greatest cartoon shows of all time. That show is Spongebob Squarepants. For over 25 years, this show has played a role that inspired and helped shape cartoons in the decades since then for the better or worse. Today I will be discussing the first episode, “Help Wanted” written by the late great creator Stephen Hillenburg alongside Tim Hill and Derek Drymon. The trio had worked on Rocko’s Modern Life, also on Nickelodeon prior until its cancellation. This led to the development of the production of Spongebob. However, ideas and drawings were done by Stephen Hillenburg, inspired by his own previous prototype called SpongeBoy. Two versions of this episode were produced. The original 1997 version that was first pitched which also had a completely different intro. And there’s the 1999 recut version that is recognized by viewers and critics alike today, Plus the original had errors that were corrected by the time the recut was done. Some songs had to be changed, some of the artwork had mistakes that were kept in and the names in the credits were misspelled but later put in the correct spelling. Regardless this remains one of the best episodes in the show.

Cosmic Princess Kaguya!
I have decided that this is going to be the year I branch out more. I am going to watch more anime, more foreign language films, and I am going to rewatch less. With that, I decided to start my movie reviewing this year with Netflix's newest anime addition.
