Scored and classed, not written.

I scored this from the couch and moved on. Usual suspects: vibe-scored, saving it for a rewatch, or no time yet. Funny thing though, time shows up the minute someone buys me coffee.

Buy me a coffee

Everything here is one guy's opinion and a lot of late nights. If a review saved you two hours, or cost you two hours you enjoyed, the coffee goes toward the next one.

Ava says: the token bill is real.
