  • Nailed It!

    Love your movie insights! Even when I’ve already seen the film, hearing you talk about it enhances the experience. Great job on New Hampshire. As a resident, I accept your pick! Gonna either rewatch all three Jumanji films OR go insane. Haven’t decided which yet. Looking forward to following along on your movie road trip!
