Time and time again, we’ve seen the culture-defining bands of yesteryear fall so easily into the inescapable pit of mediocrity. A band releases a few hits, gets too confident, and proceeds to produce large quantities of the most subpar music imaginable for the rest of time.

Content warning: This article discusses domestic violence. By now, you’ve probably heard about It Ends With Us (2024) for all the wrong reasons. And that’s a damn shame. Adapted from Colleen Hoover’s best-selling 2016 novel, It Ends With Us (IEWU) follows Lily Bloom (Blake Lively), a florist who starts dating neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid (Justin Baldoni) while renovating her new flower shop.

Walking into AMC Georgetown on a sunny Monday afternoon, I was completely unprepared to be transported into the jaw dropping, mind-bending universe of Dune: Part Two. This movie shook me to my core not just emotionally, but physically too. The soundscape was so thrillingly loud that at certain points I was nervous that the speakers would combust; the bass turned my seat into a massage chair.

In the years since their schoolyard days, both have established themselves as dynamic creative forces.
