The Legend of Vox Machina Season 2 Review: Still Brilliant, Even Deeper

Season 2 goes deeper on every character and raises the stakes with the Chroma Conclave arc. No single episode tops Season 1's premiere, but the whole season is brilliant. Rating: 9.

The Legend of Vox Machina Season 3 Review: A Worthy, Slightly Uneven Finale

Season 3 wraps the Chroma Conclave and pushes into Vecna territory. Still genuinely great animated television — a worthy ending to the trilogy, even if it's the least perfect of the three.

Lightyear (2022) Review: Chris Evans, Time Dilation, and the Best Robot Cat

The most misunderstood Pixar film in years. Lightyear explores time dilation, loss, and obsessive focus with surprising maturity. SOX the robot cat is an instant classic. Rating: 7/10.

Toy Story 4 (2019) Review: Beautiful, But Did We Need This?

Toy Story 4 is technically Pixar's finest work. It is also an epilogue nobody asked for after Part 3's perfect goodbye. Forky is funny. The ending is wrong. Rating: 6/10.
