My Thoughts on the 2024 Kids' Choice Awards

        Hey guys, Chuck here. Well, this past weekend saw Nickelodeon hold their annual Kids' Choice Awards. A little later in the year than normal, but that's okay. Now, something different this year is that in lieu of a celebrity host, Nickelodeon instead had cartoon characters SpongeBob and Patrick from SpongeBob SquarePants handle hosting duties this year. Odd, but okay. 

         So, of course, there were a ton of winners, with Barbie winning Favorite Movie, and Margot Robbie winning Favorite Movie Actress for Barbie. Timothee Chalamet won Favorite Movie Actor for his turn as Willy Wonka in Wonka, which was nice. Jack Black took home the award for Favorite Villain for his turn as Bowser in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, while Spider-Man: Across the SpiderVerse won Favorite Animated Movie. The awards for Favorite Voices in an Animated Movie went to Adam Sandler and Anna Kendrick, respectively, for their roles in Leo and Trolls Band Together. Finally, Good Burger 2 won the award for Fan Favorite Movie.

       Now, that's just for movies. As for television, winners would include the following: Percy Jackson and the Olympians won Favorite TV Show (Kids), Walker Scobell won Favorite Male TV Star (Kids) for his performance as Percy Jackson, Olivia Rodrigo from High School Musical: The Musical: The Series won Favorite Female TV Star (Kids), Young Sheldon won Favorite TV Star (Family), Iain Armitage won Favorite Male TV Star (Family) for his performance in Young Sheldon, Miranda Cosgrove won Favorite Female TV Star (Family) for her performance as Carly Shay in iCarly, America's Got Talent won Favorite Reality Show, and SpongeBob SquarePants, once again, won Favorite Cartoon. 

        Online media was represented as well, with MrBeast, Lexi Rivera, Kai Cenat, and Jordan Matter/Salish Matter all winning. In the world of sports, both Travis Kelce and Simon Biles were big winners, and music winners included Imagine Dragons, Post Malone, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Reneé Rapp, Bella Poarch, Sabrina Carpenter, the collaboration of Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice, and Aqua, and the winner of Favorite Video Game went to Roblox. Finally, Serena Williams won the Legend Award. Nice. 

       But, it's not a Kids' Choice Awards without the green Nickelodeon slime. And, there was lots of slime to go around. Among the slimed celebrities included Reneé Rapp, Jack Black, Jelly Roll, Henry Golding, and The Kid Laroi. Oh, and Hannah Stocking got cake in the face. And, the show ends with a massive 25th Birthday celebration for SpongeBob, as yes, SpongeBob SquarePants is now a twenty-five year old cartoon. Man, I'm getting old. 

       All in all, despite how late in the year it was, the Kids' Choice Awards were a ton of fun to watch, and I am really happy for most of the winners. Well, that's going to do it for me for now. I'll see you guys in the next review on Wednesday.

Review - The Thundermans Return (2024)

        Hey guys, Chuck here. Last night, I watched the new movie The Thundermans Return on Nickelodeon, and I have a few thoughts on it. For those who don't know what The Thundermans was, it was a Nickelodeon sitcom that ran from 2013 through 2018, and focused on a family of superheroes known as, well, the Thundermans. The show was okay, at least the episodes I happened to catch when it was on, but after seeing a lot of the advertising for this movie, I was genuinely tempted to check it out. So, here's my review of the new Nickelodeon movie The Thundermans Return.           So, the movie starts off with the Thunderman family, who since the end of the series have moved to the city of Metroburg, and are fighting crime as the superhero team the T-Force. And, something worth noting is that the family has aged in real time, so we see that Phoebe and Max are now adults, Nora and Billy are high schoolers, and Chloe is a middle schooler. Unfortunately, after a mission gone awry due to

Review - Ocean's Eleven (2001)

       Hey guys, Chuck here. Back in the 1960's, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and the rest of the Rat Pack teamed up and made a movie called Ocean's 11 , which told the story of a military veteran named Danny Ocean, who teams up with his fellow squad members to rob a number of casinos in Las Vegas. It was definitely a product of the time, and is actually a really fun movie. Seeing Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and the Rat Pack on screen together is just genuinely fun.        In 2001, producer Jerry Weintraub and director Steven Soderbergh would bring together a fantastic cast to tell a more modern version of the Rat Pack classic, and that's the movie we're talking about today. This is my review of the 2001 Steven Soderbergh film Ocean's Eleven starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, and Julia Roberts, along with the likes of Bernie Mac, Don Cheadle, Eddie Jemison, Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, Elliot Gould, Carl Reiner, and

Review - Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022)

         Hey guys, Chuck here. The other day, I took a look at Rian Johnson's murder mystery Knives Out , which was a financial and critical success for Lionsgate Films. However, even though Lionsgate greenlit a sequel, Netflix wound up buying the rights for a two-film deal for sequels to Knives Out . Today, we'll be taking a look at the first of these sequels: Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery , written and directed by Rian Johnson, and starring Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc, along with a cast of newcomers that includes Edward Norton, Kathryn Hahn, Dave Bautista, Kate Hudson, Jessica Henwick, Leslie Odom Jr., Madelyn Cline, and Janelle Monáe.          So, this movie involves a tech billionaire named Miles Bron, who has sent puzzle boxes to his circle of friends, including politician Claire Debella, fashion designer Birdie Jay, scientist Lionel Toussaint, and Twitch streamer/men's rights activist Duke Cody. Within the puzzle boxes are invitations to Miles' private island
