Habitually curious. I just like too many things to sum up here.
Name a film that was actually *better* than the source material.

Was tempted to go with The Two Towers, but that was more of an improved structure than actual content.

I wonder if it ever dawns on a creator during production that they are making the next stone cold holiday classic. This one is without blemish.

A ★★★★★ review of The Holdovers (2023)
So many great performances in this one.  Perfect soundtrack and you can practically feel and smell every part of this.

It’s a crime how few will be able to see this on the big screen. An absolute masterclass in visual storytelling.

Perfection.  Amazing visual storytelling throughout.  Top notch performances especially from Josh O’Connor.  The score from Nathan Johnson sets the mood perfectly.  As we left one of our group simply ...

About to head up to the Cedar Lee to see Wake Up Dead Man. Snow squalls be damned! I will not be thwarted.

Never quite develops into an effective drama or supernatural horror flick.

A ★★ review of Tenement (2024)
A decent movie, but it never could quite figure out what it wanted to be.not scary enough to be effective as a horror flick, but also because of the very light horror elements it never fully develops ...

A very tough read at times but the first hand accounts of the terror and surreal events of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are truly incredible.

Watched this with the commentary track Mike Flanagan recorded with Brian Henson. It’s a truly great commentary for a holiday classic.

A ★★★★½ review of The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)
Watched this to kick off the holiday season along with the director’s commentary Mike Flanagan did with Brian Henson.  Highly recommend it.  Great movie only enhanced by the lively conversation.

Four Christmas movies to know me by.

I know two of these were on TV, but it’s Christmas and I don’t give a shit 🎄

My favorite Sunday ritual is reading @slmandel.bsky.social college football wrap up during the season. Everything I need to know in one thoughtful and sometimes hilarious column. Reminds me of the best days of @peterking1.bsky.social MMQB. Both are legends.

There is nothing better than Village Idiot on a Saturday night. Great music, killer pizza, and god tier people watching.

I would have never guessed I would describe a Predator movie as “charming” but that is what Badlands is. Took me a minute to get into it but I was grinning for most of the run time.

Took a minute for me to get into this one, but it is so much fun.  All the creatures are a blast and the fight sequences are top tier.

A ★★★★ review of The Age of Disclosure (2025)
Probably one of the more persuasive docs about UAP (UFOs).  Man it would so rad if this was all 100%.  Hard to not be somewhat skeptical, but I am on board and wearing a tinfoil hat now.

A new action series called Trigger Point you say? Jeremy Saulnier on the creative team and starring Joel Edgerton…

Got another strange brew for #LetterboxdFriday! Bugonia is stellar, but the two docs are highly recommended as well.

If you enjoyed the HBO TV series this fits right along side. Narrated by the people who actually lived through the disaster. On HBO Max.

First time watch for me and it wasn’t half bad. Not sure it belongs in the holiday canon but given the lack of true Thanksgiving centric films it is likely graded on a curve.

A holiday blind spot for me.  Not too shabby.  I know it was drug aided by Downey, Jr. was totally unhinged and hilarious.

I came to see Emma and Jesse, but Aidan Delbis was wild in this one. Bizarre in the all the ways you want it to be.

A ★★★★½ review of Bugonia (2025)
I went back and forth on what the ending may be as I was watching this one and boy was I delighted in the end.  Jesse Plemons is a national treasure.  And Aidan Delbis was wild.
