In a decade, a massive chunk of our lives has ended up in our smartphones. Our daily lives depend heavily on this helpful yet addicting device that can deliver us the world with just a flick of a finger. What happens when our phone, a big part of our lives, ends up in strangers’ hands? […]
Masterlist of 2022 – Every Movie, Show & Kdrama I Saw Last Year
Though I haven’t talked about movies, TV shows or even Kdramas here in over a year, I’m still watching them! Maybe not as consistently as I used to and not as eagerly every month, but I still find solace in fictional characters and their stories brought to life on screen. I just have been finding […]
An End of an Era
Well, hello there! It’s been a while, a whole six months worth of absence here on Mettel Ray and I’m… alright. I’d be lying if I’d say I didn’t miss blogging though. Part of me has always thought about returning but then what would I say? What would I even write about… because I’m not […]
Hating The Hating Game – Spoiler Free Review
I have mentioned this in passing but one of the reasons I really enjoy Kdramas these days is because they feature a lot of traditional romcom elements. The kind that used to be very present in western cinema and TV… but has slowly disappeared. Granted they are mostly silly, sexist and create unrealistic expectations in […]
Masterlist of 2021 – Every Movie, Show & Kdrama I Saw Last Year
Happy fucking new year! I know it’s a bit late and I’m posting this masterlist later than planned but life, you know. Plus it’s not normal if I don’t decide to do something outlandish for my first post of 2022. Masterlist of 2021 seemed like the way to go and I really went all out. […]
Caught in the Web of Cinematic History – Spider-Man No Way Home (2021) Spoiler Review
I’m not gonna bet anything on this but I’m pretty certain my first superhero movie was Tobey Macguire’s Spider-Man. The only one that can change my answer is X-Men but I’m pretty sure I saw it a few years after it came out. Regardless Spider-Man has been in my life for almost 20 years and […]
I Am Too Single All the Way… Thank You for the Reminder, Netflix
Last December I thought it was a great idea to torture myself with 24 Christmas romance movies. It was basically a 24-day horror fest because 98% of the movies were awful. Though I must admit by the end the alright ones started to feel Oscar worthy cause there are some god awful holiday romance movies […]
7 Kpop Songs That I Have Been Loving Lately
I wrote in May that I’ve discovered Kpop. Fast forward half a year and I’m still very much into it. But now instead of focusing on one group my focus has shifted… everywhere. I now have so many favourites it’s hard to keep track of them all. But I figured it would be nice to […]
When Love Turns Sour – House of Gucci (2021) Review
To be completely honest I have no fucking idea where to start off this review. It’s been ages since I’ve written down my thoughts about a movie in a proper review form. With all that time passing it seems I have forgotten how to word my thoughts and opinions. But there’s one thing I’m completely […]
Thursday Movie Picks Television Edition: Mystery
Welcome back to regular Thursday programming! I’m hoping to be back full speed and what better way to begin than a television edition. This month’s theme is mystery! Now while the theme itself is fabulous it’s also way too vague. Yet of course I found a way. I also sort of went with a theme […]
