[List] Ranking the Vampire Academy Novels From My Least to Most Favorite

  Years ago, I first read these novels when they recently were released and I remember having fond memories of the series and enjoying them for what they were. I was also a young teenager back then when I read them. However, in light of the new tv show adaptation, I decided to revisit the novels reexperiencing them through a different method this time the audiobook versions, and I'll just say that there are multiple things that didn't age too well in retrospect.  6. Vampire Academy You have to start somewhere and since this is the first novel in the series it had to set up the world, characters, and plot. However, not much really happens in this novel. It revolves around typical high school drama and clique cliches. Not to mention all of the slut-shaming Rose experienced and the fetishization of Rose's "exotic dessert princess features". About halfway through the novel, I found myself getting bored and it was a chore to get through the rest of the book. Rose Hatha...

[List] Ranking the Star Trek Kelvin Timeline Films

  I want to preface this ranking by saying that I enjoyed all of the Kelvin Timeline films despite their flaws, and I would like to see a continued continuation of the Kelvin Timeline whether it be in novels, comics, or films. Right now Kelvin Timeline projects have screeched to a halt. Furthermore, I hope that if Paramount is actually able to get another Kelvin Timeline movie off the ground that the script is strong and good. Without further ado, onto the ranking: 3. Star Trek (2009) This is the film that kicked off the resurgence of the Star Trek brand and it's a solid first entry. The movie was cast well and the film's score was phenomenal. I believe that Spock/Uhura being romantically paired together makes perfect logical sense and I love them together as a couple. However, despite the subtle hints during the movie that hinted there was something more to their relationship beyond that of a teacher and student, it was disappointing that we didn't get to see how they fell...

[List] My Top 10 Favorite Saved by the Bell Episodes

  Saved by the Bell (1989) Peter Engel Productions//NBC Productions (NBC) I grew up watching reruns of Saved by the Bell, and I decided to list my top 10 favorite episodes from the show. Therefore, there will be no episodes from Good Morning, Miss Bliss. 10. "Drinking and Driving" This particular episode presented an important message in a manner that didn't come across as preachy and it really resonated. The message presented was loud and clear and so were the potential consequences of drinking and driving. 9. "All in the Mall" I enjoyed all of the hijinks that ensued during this episode. Imagine spending the night at the mall to buy some concert tickets.  8. "The Wicked Stepbrother (Part 2)" Eric was a good foil to Zack and gave him the runaround. Also, it was nice that Lisa was able to have her own serious love interest that lasted for more than one episode.  7. "Fourth of July" I enjoyed the overall premise of this episode. For example, t...
