There are a million things that can be said about him, but there are also millions a people talking about him, so I try to find something more unique about his craft. Hopefully th...

2020 was tough, so let's end the year with a feel good comedy. Introducing Saint☆Young Men, a animated film about Jesus and Buddha taking a vacation in modern day Japan. The premise itself is already hilarious, but the jokes it offers are also great. They are not only funny, but deep, offers un...
