XOXO
XOXO was released to Netflix on August 26, 2016. Six strangers come from around the USA to attend the music festival called XOXO. What comes is a day of and night of partying, drug trips, dates, fights, love, happiness, and an opportunity of a lifetime. The most important thing about the film is it is a character film. The main plot is the festival but it’s the ensemble that drives the story. We focus on the individual lives of Ethan, Krystal, Shannie, Ray, Neil, and Tariq. During the pandemic of 2020, music festivals and concerts had been either cancelled or postponed so it is nice and bittersweet to see lots of people in a group dancing and having a good time.

Only Lovers Left Alive
Today I watched "Only Lovers Left Alive," a 2013 Jim Jarmusch film. It is hard to define its genre: Wikipedia describes it as "Gothic fantasy comedy-drama," but I've also seen it defined as "horror thriller." I guess to say it has a little bit of everything would be fair. I'm going to run it quickly through my usual media literacy analysis, with major spoilers included. So if you want to watch it and hate spoilers, you should probably stop here.

Amy Rose was the first Time-Travel Hedgehog
When you think of time travel in the Sonic the Hedgehog lore, who is the first that pops into your head? I thought it was Silver the Hedgehog, just like several other people. But guess what? Amy Rose did take part in time travel, and so did Metal Sonic.

From Variants to Legacy
This idea didn’t come from a panel, a publisher, or a Comic-Con keynote. It came from a comment section. After I published my article about how comic shops don’t need more collectors but more readers, I came across a comment that quietly reframed the entire conversation. The commenter pointed out something that, in hindsight, feels almost obvious: libraries are often the genuine point of entry for new comic readers, not comic shops.
