Emo The Musical, Short VS Feature

So as part of a little series I've been doing I'm going to compare which version of Emo The Musical is better! (SPOILER WARNING)

So, if you haven't read either the Feature Film Review I would recommend reading that first, then reading the Short Film Review of the movie.
Alright now that's out of the way, I want to give a spoiler warning for this post. Turn back now if you don't want spoilers!
LAST WARNING FOR SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, the character of Ethan is very different form the short vs the feature. In the feature film, he is willing to compromise his beliefs so he can be with Trinity. Yet in the original short, he still wanted to be with her but he wouldn't change who he was. 
Now with Trinity, in the feature she was constantly trying to convince Ethan to convert and she does get what she wants. By that I mean, Ethan gets baptized, and sets aside his values for her, but in the short he stands up for his values but still accepts that hers are different and he's okay with that.
There is just so much more feeling from the short rather than the feature length version of this film, and I think it was reflected in the scores I gave the films.
Now, there are good parts to the feature length version, but they don't convey the tone the short was going for very well.
In the end, I think it's fine to watch both, but if you are going to watch only one of the two, then just watch the short.

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review This Was My Dad's Idea Well... I went and saw Dora and the Lost City of Gold today with my dad, and... the film was a lot funnier than it has any right to be. Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a live action adaptation of the Dora tv show on Nickelodeon. Dora, now a teenager, is sent to the City to live with her cousin, Diego, while her parents go exploring for a lost City. When her parents go missing, Dora and her new friends go and search for her parents. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but the movie wasn't half bad. There is a ton of tongue and cheek humor. There is some cringe to the Dora and the Lost City of Gold too, but remember, this is a movie made for kids. As a kids film, it does a fine job. The acting was fine, and for a kids film, everyone did alright. Isabela Moner, who played Dora, did a good job portraying the character from what I remember about the show when I was very young. What surprised...

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far The funniest show I've seen in years I've been watching a show on Netflix called Norsemen, and I swear this is the funniest show I've seen in years! I can't understate how funny this show can really be, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say about 90% of the jokes land. Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen  are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold.  I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
