The Small Screen Diaries: 09/11/25

John Stark

TV Shows Watched: Daryl Dixon: S3E1 (AMC Plus) no audio description, The Buccaneers: S2E8 (Apple Plus) with audio description, Sausage Party: Foodtopia: S2E5 (Amazon) with audio description, Ginny and Georgia: S3E2 (Netflix) with audio description, Task: S1E1 (HBO MAX) with audio description, and Hostage: S1E5 (Netflix) with audio description Daryl Dixon- I went through literal unnecessary skullduggery to watch this. I should have had access to this on Sunday, as part of my AMC Plus subscription through my Prime channel add on, like every other Walking Dead spinoff. Instead, it wasn’t there. Going back and forth with AMC and Amazon, … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/11/25

The Small Screen Diaries: 09/05/25

John Stark

TV Shows Watched: The Buccaneers: S2E7 (Apple plus) with audio description, Wednesday: S2E6 (Netflix) with audio description, NCIS: Tony And Ziva: S1E1 (Paramount Plus) with audio description, Long Story Short: S1E4 (Netflix) with audio description, Sausage Party: S1E4 (Amazon) with audio description The Buccaneers- I definitely felt with the last episode that The Buccaneers had finally reached its true potential, and with this episode, all of the strong subject matter they have opened up until now is paying off. the season’s penultimate episode has Nan’s mother filing for divorce from her husband, and she has to have proof. Mind you, … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 09/05/25

A Complete Unknown

John Stark

A Complete Unknown- Timmy’s Best Work Since Beautiful Boy Quick Take: As part of my screener bonanza, I received A Complete Unknown without audio description. So, this review is my first thoughts on the film, but by no means my final thoughts. It was enough to give me a taste, and to have some idea of whether or not this film has actors in winning performances. If we’re being honest, that’s why most people are here, to see Timothee Chalamet play Bob Dylan. How good is he? How close does he look to the part? The funny thing about being … Continue reading A Complete Unknown

Sausage Party: A Second Look

John Stark

Yes, I’ve reviewed this film before. The great thing about maintaining a website this long is that someone can look back and see what I initially wrote about Sausage Party. with the release of the new Amazon series Sausage Party: Foodtopia, I took the advantage of Sausage party being on Netflix, with audio description, to watch and see how the audio description holds up and compares. Also, is this film still funny? I do want to type this part out. It’s important. This film stars the vocal talents of: Seth Rogen, Kristen Wiig, Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, Edward Norton, Salma … Continue reading Sausage Party: A Second Look

The People Vs Larry Flynt

John Stark

More of my Oscar Shame, though this one I’m less ashamed of. I wasn’t old enough to se this on my own when it first came out, and it just became a matter of never catching up on this double nominee. Nominated for Best Director for Milos Foreman and Actor for Woody Harrelson, it is easy to write this film off as inconsequential. In fact, I assume that is why it doesn’t have audio description on Paramount Plus. but, ultimately, the film is very much about free speech, whether you agree with that speech or not. And that is the … Continue reading The People Vs Larry Flynt

American History X

John Stark

I’ve been trying to watch Oscar movies I hadn’t seen before and cover all the streaming services I typically cover. Hulu being the exception, because it would seem every film I find on there that has an Oscar nomination. I’m very familiar with. Tubi, which just started into audio description this year, has an atrocious list of films with audio description, rarely offering films people want to actually watch. Shockingly, none of them have ever been nominated for an Oscar. Broadening my search, while I would have preferred this review to be la Cage Aux Folles (even with English dubbing), … Continue reading American History X

Asteroid City

John Stark

Where I Watched It: Peacock English Audio Description?: Yes Wes Anderson is one of the few directors where I’ve actually managed their entire filmography. He is one of those very influential directors whose style speaks to cinema lovers, but always really stands out as a director who makes the kinds of choices that make me wonder how do we appropriately convey his quirks to a blind audience through audio description? He has released three films in the span of my vision loss, and none of them have pushed into my Top 5 of his filmography. To be fair, it seems … Continue reading Asteroid City

The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/12/23

John Stark

Yesterday provided ample TV news. NBC announced their fall lineup, which included a Season 2 renewal for Lopez V Lopez, and has left its remaining sitcoms (American Auto, Young Rock, and Grand Crew) on the bubble. NBC also surprisingly revived Transplant with a 2 season order (since the series comes from Canada), and pushed LaBrea’s tiny third (and likely final) season to mid season. Meanwhile, The CW surprisingly rescued cancelled AMC drama 61st Street. I’m not sure why. I’m not sure anyone was asking for that. But this is the new CW, and by God, they will be irrelevant in … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/12/23

Glass Onion

John Stark

Where I Watched it: Netflix Audio Description Provided By: International Digital Center Written by: Steven Christopher Narrated By: Jamie Lemcheck A few years back, Knives Out was all the rage and the hotness among film twitter. it had Oscar buzz, but really just managed a screenplay nomination. We are back, thanks to Netflix ordering two sequels, with Glass Onion, which once again is in the Oscar race, and very likely to again get a screenplay nomination. Knives Out wasn’t one of my favorite films from that year, though i did appreciate it. I can say that I think Glass Onion … Continue reading Glass Onion
