John Stark

Where I watched It: Netflix English Audio Description Provided By: International Digital center Written By: Dakota Green Cast: Jennifer Garner, Ed Helms, Emma Myers, Brady Noon, and Rita Moreno. Written By: Victoria Strauss Directed By: McG Let’s hit that audio description first. Dakota Green’s script for the audio description is the smart way to go. Instead of trying to follow the absurdity of a six way Freaky Friday, she decides that when the character’s soul, if you will, moves from one body into another, after a little bit of explaining it, you realize that the character name has moved to … Continue reading Family Switch

Fast X

John Stark

Where I Watched It: In The Family Room on Peacock English Audio Description?: Yes, Family May Enjoy Audio Description Family. I’m pretty sure when The Fast and the Furious was a surprise hit in 2001, a sequel was presumed. but we are now on the 10th film in this long running family franchise, and it has grown in size as to be able to maximize the family members on screen. The amount of people in this film is so ridiculous that after the movie ends, and the credits start to list the various family members, when we start to wind … Continue reading Fast X

Where I Watched it: Paramount Plus English Audio Description?: Yes It’s pretty hard to assemble a cast like this and have a bad movie. Although, I do now look at Sally Field, knowing she’s a method actress, and wonder… did she go all in on this role?

Tomlin had cancer a while back, and she and her friends watched Brady and the patriots because they couldn’t change the channel, and became fans. When her cancer resurfaces, … Continue reading 80 For Brady

The Best Of 2021

John Stark

With the Oscar’s swiftly approaching, and my Oscar final predictions released yesterday, it’s finally time to discuss who i think actually should have been nominated in the major categories, and who I would vote to win. This list will be completely different than the Oscar list, because I am just myself, I have no guild or board of people to mess up my nomination process, and my awards mean nothing. No actor is sitting out there waiting with bated breath to see if they will be included on Mac The Movieguy’s Best of 2021. Which is great for me, because … Continue reading The Best Of 2021
