Crudup is such a fantastic actor - his presence and delivery is so entertaining.  Also, stray observation:  Alex is a terrible pet owner.

I tried to see the original article through backdoors, but no luck. Read the abstract and it strikes me that the general anesthesia is a potential confounding variable.  I wonder whether the experience of the “trip” is what is needed both subjectively and neurologically. It will be interesting to see where this goes. 

I was thinking Micky Rourke and Axl Rose’s long lost mother.

One segment had promise - the one where the protagonists go camping (won’t add much more) but I hoped that it would have been incorporated more as a thread through some subsequent segments.  Perhaps I am just too old but I am a horror fan and watched this with my 28 year old son who I introduced to horror, and we both…

The latest entry was terrible, IMHO.  One of the few movies that I watch where, at the end, I feel like I have wasted minutes of my life.

I fear you will be correct.  Some of the original plot lines that were most compelling - to me at least - have played out.  The conceit of the show being an alternate history has also played out IMHO.

Worst makeup of the year award for how they aged Joel Kinnaman.

I think I saw the first in the series because I find this genre of horror simply gratuitous.  However, after seeing the trailer I might actually see this one - it looks kind of fun (I’m hoping the movie doesn’t take itself too seriously).

The frustrating thing about Meta’s shutdown on “news” is that Canadian users can’t post links to ANY sites, Canadian or otherwise.  What Meta considers “news” goes as far as trying to repost an article from Snopes.com.  Meta’s blocking of ALL news stories, not just those originating from Canadian sites, is an…

These are gorgeous! High res versions do not unfortunately appear to be available, so I hope the photographers are managing to monetize their use.

I plan to continue skipping it.  ;)

I thought She Hulk looked creepy and crappy but it seems many didn’t share that criticism - apparently the show wasn’t that bad and perhaps that made up for it.

The scene below looks horrible.  

Oh Jesus - that’s terrible!  I’ve seen cut scenes on PC games that look better than that.  Did you see the whole movie and does the shitty CGI detract as much as I imagine it would?

So the image above of Cage is how it actually appeared in the movie?  If so, I get why The Flash has been criticized for shitty CGI.  Obviously I have not seen the movie yet.  I am experiencing Marvel/DC fatigue.

I call bullshit

Another reason to dump social media altogether.

Uggh... yet another reason to ditch X/Twitter.  Does Threads allow political ads?

The dinner scene is reminiscent of family dinners I have attended.
