“If ever something marked the modern superiority of television over the movies, it’s the arrival of Ridley Scott.”

I was supposed to be on that tour, but I had a prior engagement throwing chum on Derek Jeter.

Boreanaz is great, but he always seems like he’s super-high. Like, in a way that speaks of great experience with that state of mind, and he knows how to function and cope while super high all the time.

“Take it from me.”

I really thought it was a good movie, and the things I find frustrating about it only further the themes and ideas it was going for, which is something I can’t say for many movies.

Ditto. As a sequel to a cult sci-fi, made over 30 years after the first, 2049 has no business being as good as it is. Usually such a long gap between films is a bad sign and the original doesn’t gel with the newer one but 2049 really works. Felt the same about Fury Road.

If a homeless guy found a phone, their videos would probably turn out exactly the same.

Uh oh. “Let the Devil out”?

“What if something horrible goes wrong!?”

Willow is back on the magics (magicks, magix?) again. 

My main takeaway from this article is disappointment that Alyson Hannigan uses abbreviations when she’s well within the character limit.

Because it’s the GOAT? By which I mean, literally the goat is the best.

Aw yes! “The Witch” rules! One of the best thrillers in years.

I can’t figure out how to change it at the hotel where I work. Some of the TVs have motion smoothing on and some don’t. For 1500 a night there should be a little more consistency. 

The TV setting bandits... 

You’re doing the Lord’s work.

I’ve actually started breaking into random people’s houses at night to turn this feature off on their TVs. Naturally, I’ll take any valuables or liquor I see lying around as payment for my services.

I don't know. I enjoyed this movie purely from an aesthetic standpoint. I don't see what's wrong with that. I wouldn't go around comparing it to the works of Kubrick, Tarkovsky, or Lynch but I don't see how the movie's to blame for people that do. Also, if you have any insight into the the symbolism, meaning, or plot…

Buckaroo Bonzai's quoted at the end of this film in the credits, of course. How could it not be?

Evil Carl Sagan is looking pretty evil, there.
