Sugar Rush Recaps: S1E1
In case you missed it, I’m bisexual. I am very much on the bi side of the spectrum. When it comes to sexuality: straight I ain’t. And since this is my blog, I can yell as much as I like about things that interest me, and the representation of the non-straights in pop culture has always been one of them. So it only seems right, after the decided chasteness of my last set of recaps, that I take on something a little more…sexual. A little more gay. A little more…Sugar Rush.

The Marketing Department: Aladdin Trailer
Another Disney remake!!!!!! My Favourite!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m going to be real with you here: nobody at Chez No But Listen happens to be a die-hard classic Disney fan. Star Wars? We got you covered. The movies of Rob Zombies? We’re all in. Batman? Too much, some might say. But honestly, the first teaser for Disney’s live-action Aladdin remake had the internet scratching its head for days, and we can’t miss out on a potential carcrash of the childhood-ruining variety. So here we are, blue fresh-faced and ready to take on the first full-length Aladdin trailer! Let’s get to it.
0:10: The less said about the Will Smith intro, the better, I feel.

Riverdale S3E14: Fire Walk With Me
It feels strange to be writing this Riverdale recap this week. I know a lot of you are here for the snark on TV’s biggest trainwreck, but there’s a heavy weight on the back of the show right now, and that’s because, on Monday, Luke Perry passed away.

Game of Thrones Trailer: An Idiot’s Reaction
You know, the final season of Game of Thrones is coming out next month and I feel like it’s the end of an era: not a good one, of course, because I despise Game of Thrones and always have. Yes, it’s a well-made show and I admire the artistic blah blah fan appeasement blah, but it’s just not for me. Never has been, never will be. And yet, this is the most virulent pandemic of a pop culture disease that has existed in my lifetime – bigger than Breaking Bad, bigger than Doctor Who, Game of Thrones has been following my unwilling ass around like Jamie Dornan getting into character for his latest role. I’ve watched almost all of the show, just trying to get to that point where it clicks and I go “ah, yes, this is what I’ve been missing!”. It still hasn’t happened.
