The Sandman (2022)
As someone familiar with the source material...
This did an excellent job, but haters are always going to hate on projects like this. I'm shocked that it's this good tbh. Don't listen to the haters, this is great.

Loved ever moment
The creepy vibe that reverberates throughout every episode, the interesting storytelling dynamic, the acting, the characters... I pretty much enjoyed it all. I've noticed a trend on IMDB over the years and that is that movies and tv shows in this genre tend to score lower per quality than other genres. I really have no idea why this is the reason, but the scores of the best horror/scary type things always score a bit lower than something like an action or drama genre work. This should be at least an 8.5 on imdb based on it's quality, but people just overcritique the genre. I've noticed the score has started to trend upward, I hope it continues to do so. I'd give it about a 9, but I'm going full 10 to balance things out a bit. It was an excellent +/-8 hours of bulk watching for me. I loved how it just combined all kinds of creepy elements together and created a solid story. I'm a bit worried about the future based on the ending, because stories like this can unravel very quickly.. but so far so good.
Avengers: Endgame (2019)
First time I've been truly impressed by a Marvel movie
What more is there to say? They've had some good Marvel movies, but this is a tier above the others.
Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
Very good, better than expecting
I'd like to preface this by stating that you can't ever please Star Trek fans. I've been both a Star Trek fan and a Star Wars fan for the majority of my life. Star Trek fans are the worst.... the absolute worst when it comes to nitpicking things. They are obnoxious to a level that Star Wars fans can only dream of becoming. The reviews of the show on this site are a pretty good indicator of that. Klingons don't look right.... 1/10. The ears don't look right... 2/10. No show will ever be the Star Trek that you grew up loving. The original series was made for the 60s... TNG was made for the late to early 90s. Things evolve... get over it.
The show does many things well... has complex characters, an intricate story.. and is never short of action. The show has a similar tone to that of the JJ Abrams incarnations of Star Trek, yet has a more detached cerebral quality to it. Is it perfect, no. It is pretty darn good though.
