Kamen Rider W Forever: A to Z/The Gaia Memories of Fate
Cool movie. Nothing super groundbreaking, but it was fun and contributed a bit to Philip's character (though he didn't really need it).
Eternal and the CG overuse at points was funny,

Kamen Rider W
Had a few stinker arcs, but it's overall a very good show that really comes together in the last stretch. The characters and their arcs are also really good—I like Shotaro more than I did in my initial watch. Rewatching this def reminded me why this is in my top 5 Kamen Rider seasons.

The Big O
Season 1 wasn't as good as I wanted it to be, but the aesthetics and robot stuff were very cool and elevated it, and I did like the episodic mystery elements. Season 2 did less for me between the "answers" being convoluted and it looking worse bc of digipaint, but it was still cool.

Fuuto PI
I don't think this is the exact kind of sequel Kamen Rider W needs or deserves, but it's still pretty good. I think it does what's fun about the show even if some of the more "mature" elements can feel out of place (especially the sexual fanservice [Tokime]).

honestly get kind of embarrassed whenever I'm reminded that there's a real place called "Christchurch"

Fuuto PI: Portrait of Kamen Rider Skull
I liked this a lot! I was always sort of sad the original story was a sort of weird supplementary crossover special thing, so having it fleshed out as a full story was really cool even if it's framed within Fuuto PI (which I think is fine).

Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace
I don't think this movie is BAD—it's just not very good either. The dialogue, performances, and fairly boring first half are probably the main things holding it back, but the second half is fun, it looks good (even with dated CGi), and the fights are cool.

as with most things, the truth is "it depends" since, of course, there's also the other extreme

ehhhhh like 15 minutes in I was like "I can tell this isn't going to be my type of movie" and I was right. It looked and sounded good, and the horror was effective, but I couldn't vibe with it no matter how much it wanted me to. Then it just kept going well past the point it should've ended.
