Counted the jumpscares in Blue Exorcist. Lost count. Lost interest. Refunded the popcorn emotionally.

Blue Exorcist thinks "scary" means turning the lights off and slamming a kitchen drawer.

The science in Blue Exorcist has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

Blue Exorcist is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Blue Exorcist actually is?
Rewatched Blue Exorcist last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Blue Exorcist?
Just got out of Blue Exorcist and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Hot Take: Blue Exorcist's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Honestly, Blue Exorcist would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
