10.He Man (2021).
I'm watching this right now, and even though it's in CGI and Orko is a robot in this one, I prefer the real Orko - the less mechanical one. Okay, I'll admit, I love this Orko because he's adorable as a robot, but he's struggling with his identity. He's the robotic Tarzan of the Netflix world, so if Teela showed him a treehouse belonging to the original Orko, his whole problem would be done for by now, and he would be a wild robot running free in the Heavens. Forever will Cheese and Furaha be friends with incarnations of the real Orko, both in his 1980's and 2002 forms.
9.Voltron: Legendary Defender
I rarely heard of Voltron except in fairytale books, but today, I have a chance to see him in action. And no matter how boring and flashy it gets, I'll watch it all the way through. Maybe I'll get some inspiration from this series - besides, Voltron IS a giant robot after all.
8.ReBoot: The Guardian Code
ReBoot mixed in with Power Rangers? Why not? I get it, Netflix already did some Power Rangers series, but it's like they got Saban to do a ReBoot series, threw all the money into their Frisket-shaped piggybank, and then said "Bye bye, we're off." Also, the heroes look really depressed here, almost as if they're about to cry. Do they come equipped with digital hankies?
7.Power Rangers: Once & Always
Oh, NOW we're onto the Power Rangers. This live action special contains all the charm and spirit of the original Power Rangers series, not terrible CGI - costumed characters, unstable props and no Disney-like diverse casting choices. Just a reimagining of the Power Rangers in their original forms for a new generation. Netflix, you're good at this - especially with Alpha. He's my favourite character in the special!
6.We Can Be Heroes.
I haven't seen this film yet, but it's like Netflix's very own Sky High, except there's kids who have superpowers out to save their parents from the forces of evil. And yet what makes this movie so special is that there's this kid hero - IN A WHEELCHAIR? No offense, but this is the perfect role model disabled kids need. In a world where Henry Danger and The Thundermans are taking over Nickelodeon, we push these stupid shows aside and let superheroes with disabilities tell us that their disabilities are their real superpowers, like autism is my superpower. Without it, I won't be able to write great slice of life vignettes or do Slides. Good job, Netflix, now go show this movie to someone who deserves to see it.

5.Orko's Restful Spot
This is a simple vignette about being out in nature, and the wild, free forces of it making you want to think while smelling the flowers. Orko goes to a special place he goes to when he wants to escape the hectic stress of home life and relaxes under his favourite tree, dreaming of wandering the forest and thinking about why friendship matters to him. It's a vignette about mindfulness, purpose and finding yourself - tell that to the robotic version of Orko from 2021 He Man I mentioned earlier, he would love this place.
4.Bratz: Rock Angelz
OOOH! Another Bratz movie I bought because of support worker problems! I hope it contains exciting repetitive footage! I hope it will, and I hope it does - the Bratz here are teen magazine editors who review the coolest bands in the world. When a sceptical problem arises, the girls have no choice but to become a rock band themselves. I hope this film will be a much better piece of media than that super annoying Disney XD show I'm In The Band, starring the most annoying rock group in the world, Iron Weasel. Never trust guys like them...
3.Baby Cuddles
Ah, now this one's a lot sweeter. In this vignette, Furaha and Orko help out at a nursery, caring for all the baby lion cubs who are playing there. There's a lot to look forward to in this cuddly scenario - from Furaha's toe trick she plays with babies to get them to trust her to Orko being cuddled by the babies, you'd want to have kids after reading this with your partner - or if you have kids, you might want to cuddle them like they're babies again.
2.Furaha The Hot Water Bottle
In the last few days, my region has been especially cold, because Winter had arrived. Support worker delays, jumpers that make you sweaty, hot chocolate...those are the things that make Winter as a 23 year old more enjoyable. Well, in this vignette, Furaha and Orko make cold days lying in bed more playful and sweet, as Orko feels chilly on a cold and snowy morning but uses his little sister as a hot water bottle to keep him warm. Much better than being cuddled by some baby lion cubs, am I right?
1.Forest Heaven
Aaaaah, the forest. So peaceful and magical. Tell that to Furaha and Orko. This vignette shows our two friends wandering a magical green forest that's just as peaceful as any natural scene they stumble upon, with crystal clear water, glowing green leaves and sunshine shining through the trees onto them. It's a vignette that helps you to feel at peace with yourself...even if you feel uncomfortable cramps and bodily malfunctions for a whole week.
Okay, now you can speak.
