Rogue One: Forceful Words?

By G.P. Avants I think it is about the right time to give some thoughts and inspirations from Rogue One. There are so many really great points, plot twists, and analogies to draw upon. Rogue One kept true to the original plot for the most part, however it also broke tradition and gave a us…

By G.P. Avants There are two reasons why I thought Kubo of the Two Strings was a movie worth watching. One reason was the visual animation used to tell a very unique style. Since it was from the creators of Coraline, they already peaked my interest. So this is for storytellers and wordsmiths who…
