Happy weekend, again!

I hope you are feeling fine.

I will spend the next few weeks covering the New York Asian Film Festival 2021. I’ll be doing an episode of the Heroic Purgatory podcast tomorrow and publishing as many reviews as I can and also an interview. This week, I posted about the action film Hydra and continued to marathon The X-Files. I have got to mid-way in season 4 and decided to select the best episodes from later seasons.

What is released this weekend?
