The show in my opinion is flawed in many ways, from … Continue reading Steven Universe The Movie; Absolutely Amazing

On May 17th, 2019 the film “The Sun Is Also A Star,” and adaptation of the book by the same name, was released in theaters. Directed by Ry-Russo Young, the film came out to like warm reviews.
