Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey (2020)
So much potential, falls flat
There's so much wrong with this story and the way it's structured.
The costume design, scenography, animation and most actors are AMAZING, but the story and the characters are just nonsensical and horrible for such an otherwise magical concept.
Don't go into this and think it's about the robot. It's there in three scenes.
The protagonist doesn't show up until half an hour into the movie.
The songs don't reflect the plot or what the characters wants. It's just a mess.
Vampire: The Masquerade: L.A. By Night (2018)
Stale impro theater
I love Vampire and roleplaying streams, but this is something else. This is more akin to an improvisation theater, but the actors are tied down to the table, telling how they do their actions. You never get to know the actors - I don't think they even GET to go out-of-character, everything is just... stale. It gets real cringey when the sobbing starts, since they act out character emotions, but the player's sitting at a table.
The show has charming characters, good actors, and a cool story, but I'd rather have the actors do roleplaying with friends, rather than try to be completely, professionally in-character.
