Seeing Star Wars in the theater would have been nice, but I was barely out of my baby years and my parents were super-religious and thought "The Force" was Devil stuff (they got over it, thankfully).

I had only seen the trailer to the Sixth Sense and my friends went and saw it and were raving about it.
Without even thinking I asked, "Is Bruce Willis one of the dead people?"
Their mouths were agape.
I think the giveaway was their describing Willis character as a, "Therapist who was attacked by one of his patients," so…

Am I the only person not really feeling this season?
I think this year is showing the struggle of plugging in the same characters into every scenario.
If you don't do something wildly colorful with your noble law enforcement protagonist, eccentric underworld evil types, and suburbanite schemers, it starts to show.
I just…

I found The Keepers to be very troubling.
It is certain some terrible, unforgivable things happened, but… and this is a big BUT… the weaving of conspiracy against solid evidence was really unnerving.

I really liked it.
I went from laughing at "Is that mothers hat?" to tearing up seeing the log lady.
It's pretty clear they are letting Lynch do whateverthefuckhewants.

"Nothing grated me more than the storyline of mayor's young wife being called a witch, gawked at and being a shadeless golddigger. It's such rampant sexism, I wince every time she's on screen."

Well, the UFO stuff being misunderstood is also understandable because when Major Briggs reappears he's wearing a WW2 fighter pilot uniform.
It was part of their half baked approach to the mythology, connecting it to UFO/abduction lore, likely, without really thinking it through.

I revisited Twin Peaks for the first time since it originally aired earlier this year and the following things were the biggest surprises to me.

Yeah, I get it, they have to be there in *some* fashion and I do want that backstory.
I just brace at them being almost co-characters (having their own subplot worlds), I guess?
I'm just saying 'tis hard to get into plot points where a metaphorical or literal gun is to their head and you know that trigger won't be…

I was always opposed to Breaking Bad characters showing up.
My worry with them is that knowing their ends, it totally deflates many tension points in their storylines.
And I think they've proven that it is a problem.
With Mike, Gus, and the lot, it's interesting, but their stakes are chained to the fact that we know…

Prometheus was so terrible, I almost walked out, something I have done maybe twice in all my years of moviegoing.
The sole fact I'll give Covenant a chance is that none of the writer's of Prometheus were involved.

And, Kim notes Jimmy did it "by hand," so I guess he can add sewing to his list of skills alongside grifting and general chicanery.

I like it, so I'm happy with this news.
I think it is the best horror show currently running.
I know the article slags on it for poor ratings, but maybe this is a Hannibal deal where Fox actually said "fuck it" and renewed something because it was good and airs on a dead night anyways.

I just watched it last night and I was struck by how it paled to his last stand-up special, which was phenomenal.
He's got some okay bit's (like one about how you can get away with lying by using sarcastic tone of voice), but overall it felt like a lot of Macdonald b-material or filler.

Eh, prêtty much everything that creaks and groans in the Hellboy movies is De Toro's fault.

I used to listen to Night Vale, Who Charted, and The Long Shot regularly.
Who Charted and Night Vale just got tiresome, predictable in their goofs, and I ditched Long Shot when Eddie Peppitone exited.

Fuck.
He was a featured artist at the Big Ears festival just last month and was in attendance.
I wish I'd had the time to go to some of the screenings, especially Stop Making Sense at the gorgeous Tennessee Theater.
R.I.P.

"…No, the assistant getting eaten isn't sexist: dinosaurs don't give a shit…"

I really enjoyed this episode.
Bill was delightful.
I was worried they were going to lean too hard towards her being comic relief but the character had more solid grounding.

I felt the same thing about the pacing in the two I've watched.
It's one thing to be quick fire, but there are stretches where they literally sound like they are rushing to get a quip out.
It kinda kills the joke.
Far better to cut a joke or two to let a good one land rather than stack two or three only to nervously…
