  • THE DRAMA 2026 Movie Review – Is It Worth Watching?

    How could I not go see The Drama? There’s a word in the title that’s almost exactly like my first name! Otherwise, they wouldn’t have reeled me into the theater just from the trailer. Previews only seemed to communicate a premise of: there is a person that has a secret. Was a film with such a simple setup worth watching?

    In the movie, there are four friends that each admit to a bad secret, culminating with a final shocking revelation! Ben Franklin (not the famous one) goes first.

    Ben Franklin: I once took a book from the library! It had to be almost 2 weeks before I gave it back!

    Friend 2’s name was Amelia Airhart (obviously not the famous one). Dis Drawma Kingg was already in significant distress from the library secret. I was worried I might pass out after only the second or third reveal. Airhart starts talkin’. 

    Amelia Airhart: Planes scare me, so I was taking a long boat ride. One of the other passengers kept making fun of my name and the fact that I chose a boat over an airplane. As I was walking away from the situation, I turned around and called him a MEANIE!

    Ben Franklin: You used that word?

    Amelia Airhart: Yes I did! I just can’t stand everyone making me feel like I live in the shadow of a famous person with a similar name!

    Ben Franklin: I can’t say such a thing has ever happened to me.

    You’re probably thinking the next person would have a name like Marlon Brando. Supposedly, the birth name of Friend 3 is Notafamousname (pronounced like naw may at the end).

    Notafamousname: Here’s my secret. I don’t consider Ben Franklin a friend.

    Amelia Airhart: Are you referring to the one sitting next to me or the famous Ben Franklin?

    Ben Franklin: The who?

    Amelia Airhart: Never mind, I’ll explain later. Notafamousname, which one is it?

    Notafamousname: I hate this one right here! He loves books, SOPHISTICATED music, theater, and even romance movies! How obnoxious!

    Amelia Airhart: Those are the things that make Ben wonderful! You’re just being a… a mm… a me…

    Ben Franklin: Don’t put yourself through that a second time, Amelia! It’s not worth it!

    William Milkshakespeare (Friend 4, clearly not the famous William Shakespeare, as the last name doesn’t even start with the same letter): SILENCE, all of you! Sit down and listen to my words! I didn’t have anything in the way of luxuries when I was a child. An emergency caused my parents to beg the next-door neighbors to let their daughter babysit me for the afternoon. The parents were reluctant, but the daughter was kind and volunteered to do it. She brought over a DVD player (which I had never seen before) with a large box full of DVDs! She encouraged me to sort through them to pick anything I wanted to watch. First, we watched Jurassic Park, which I think was about ancient reptiles or something like that. J. Parky was pretty good, so I put on Kangaroo Jack right after! My horrible secret is that I did not enjoy it.

    Notafamousname: Kangaroo Jack is an epic of our times! There’s no way you didn’t like it!

    William Milkshakespeare: I did not lie! Today is the first time I have told the truth about my opinion! I know it is heretical!

    Notafamousname: Wow, I think I’d rather be friends with Ben Franklin, and he likes SOPHISTICATED music.

    Is It Worth Watching?: Yes! The Drama was an excellent movie! It moved briskly and kept you interested the whole time!

    Final Thoughts: 8/10 Crowns. Zendaya and Robert Pattinson completely sold this story with their acting. All of the supporting actors were good too. There was an enormous amount of tension built from the rhythm of the unfolding events. Personally, I felt the Pretty Hate Machine Poster was the best character. The Drama was so overly dramatic that I almost wanted to give it a 10/10 for being right up my alley. I just couldn’t get past the notion that there might be people out there that don’t like Kangaroo Jack

  • THE SUPER MARIO GALAXY MOVIE 2026 Movie Review – Is It Realistic?

    My curiosity compelled me to see The Super Mario Galaxy Movie as fast as I could! I needed to know if the writers would be able to create a realistic portrayal of plumbers. How much overlap is there with writers and people who have worked at least one full day as a plumber? What are the odds that they found anyone with the knowledge to get it right? Let’s find out.

    The main characters are brothers named Mario and Luigi. For some reason, they are constantly getting into physical altercations, such as jumping on people’s heads! If a plumber jumps on someone’s head in real life, police come knocking at their door. No police officers ever show up to investigate these Mario Twin characters (that first appeared in a Group X video). This, in my dramatic opinion, is the first solid piece of evidence that the movie is not a realistic window into the life of a plumber.

    SUPER SPOILER PARAGRAPH: My favorite part of the movie was when Fox McCloud showed up! Dis Drawma Kingg was surprised to see him! I only knew the Mario Twins from the Group X video, but I was familiar with the Star Fox video game series. Unfortunately, Fox McCloud leads us to the most problematic plumber scene. Mario and Luigi are riding in Fox’s CONVERTIBLE interstellar spaceship. That’s right. They are moving fast enough to travel through galaxies in a spaceship with no top to cover them or seal in oxygen. Were they at least wearing space suits and helmets? Get this: No. I cannot believe zero staff members told the writers that plumbers don’t have a special ability to breathe in space!

    Is It Realistic?: Absolutely not! I think it may have even been computer generated images instead of human actors.

    Final Thoughts: 5/10 Crowns. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie gets a low rating for two main reasons. Firstly, all of the jokes were not funny. Secundius, the plot did not take any interesting turns. You could 100% predict everything that was going to happen. I am wondering if this film was only meant for kids. Maybe they weren’t actually trying to entertain adults. At any rate, I can assure you this movie was not meant to be used for documentary purposes when learning about plumbers.

  • METROPOLIS 1927 Movie Review – Is It Worth Watching?

    “Why don’t you ever review any silent films?” Dis Drawma Kingg gets asked this question all the time. I’ll just be walking down the street and people keep shouting it at me! In today’s episode (#54) we will deeply analyze the 1927 movie Metropolis!

    I’ve been meaning to watch Metropolis for many years. Perhaps the universe nudged me to wait until I created drawmakingg.com so that episode #54 would eventually come into existence. Shortly into the movie, you realize that watching it is going to require significant effort. Characters say lots o’ things to each other and you just have to interpret what the words are.

    One scene I managed to interpret:

    Character 1: I do believe you still owe me 30 bucks.

    Character 2: Yeah, but I ain’t payin’ it.

    Character 1: You liar! You promised me! I thought we were friends!

    Character 2: We were, but your friendship ain’t worth 30 bucks to me.

    Or this other riveting scene:

    Character 3: You don’t look like yourself today.

    Character 4: Anguish, agony, despair, existential dread, hopelessness…

    Character 3: You are experiencing those feelings?

    Character 4: Pain, hunger, would like a cookie, disturbed, unnerved, unchallenged, exhausted.

    Character 3: I can get the doctor!

    Character 4: No! I only feel this way because someone took my parking spot!

    Character 3: All of those emotions just from something as simple as that?

    Character 4: Have you SEEN the traffic outside?

    Is It Worth Watching?: Yes, if you are a lover of cinema, film history, or silent films.

    Final Thoughts: This may be the hardest Crown Rating I have ever had to decide. Metropolis likely would have felt like a 9 or 10 if I were a movie critic in 1927. The sets were amazing, the artistic vision of the whole metropolis was unique, and the android design is remarkably cool. I think I will have to go with 9/10 Crowns official Drawma Kingg rating of Metropolis! From this episodic experience we all now know why it’s bad to encourage me to interpret silent films. So quit yellin’ it at me when I’m taking a casual stroll down the local street!

  • PROJECT HAIL MARY 2026 Movie Review – Is It Worth Watching?

    Ryan Gosling in spaaaaaace! That may not legally be a sentence, yet I’ve always thought it a myth that a sentence needs specific components. Just like it’s a myth that writers (such as Dis Drawma Kingg) are obligated to be articulate. Oh yeah, I went to see Project Hail Mary, because there was nothing more interesting playing at the movies this week.

    Don’t get me wrong, I love science fiction movies, and I honestly do think Ryan Gosling is a good actor. The unenthusiastic attitude was merely due to the fact that all I knew about the movie was Ryan Gosling in space. This was certainly not the first, nor do I intend it to be the last, time I entered a movie knowing virtually nothing about it. Ignorant viewings are actually pretty fun! Also, I had a slight suspicion this could secretly unfold as a long-awaited sequel to Leprechaun 4: In Space.

    Aren’t movie trailers basically just an evil collection of spoilers? Maybe I go too far with the word evil. I mean, that’s pretty rude of me to call anything evil unless I am 100% sure. Regardless, I see movie trailers for what they really are —a rapid fire grouping of spoilers.

    Is It Worth Watching?: To my surprise, I really enjoyed Project Hail Mary.

    Final Thoughts: 7/10 Crowns. Project Hail Mary worked reasonably well as a whole film. I did find myself highly skeptical of the science, but Dis Drawma Kingg is not qualified in this area enough to make any worthwhile arguments. My only real disappointment in the film was the fact that Ryan Gosling in spaaaaace turned out NOT to be a sequel to Leprechaun 4: In Space. Although… that one character did look like it could be the child of the ultimate villain of the Leprechaun Universe known as Mittenspider!
