Let’s try this again, shall we?
I’ve been itching to tell someone that Predator Badlands and How To Train your Dragon have some serious narrative overlap.

Always felt Kill Bill’s black and white fight needed re-editing. The eye doesn’t track as fast shot-to-shot without colour, which is how it was originally edited.
Having it returned to colour for The Whole Bloody Affair? I’m IN. Not for the blood, for the clarity of action. youtu.be/-SzkFgEqB6Y?...

Very much enjoyed Eden, Ron Howard’s new film on Prime.
Good ‘hell is other people’ stuff, which I hate-enjoy. For all the 1930s setting its’s horribly contemporary. All influencers, egotists and resource terror.
Worth renting The Galapagos Affair documentary from Apple for two quid afterwards.

What exactly happened with those two totally separate Lord of the Rings DVD documentaries? This is a really good breakdown of the hows and whys. https://youtu.be/k68X9r14XAw?si=poOaKGIwjEVQYFaN

Buying groceries in the States is insane right now, even compared to the UK cossy-lives.
Normal big bag of Doritos costs $5.50 in the supermarket, which is about £4.10! (In the UK they’re £2.50, which is about $3.40)

The BBC iPlayer app on my AppleTV box just gained subtitling. Huge font, not adjustable, but…there they are. Working. Like they’ve not been saying it’s impossible for six years.
Any else got this?!

As a Stephen King fan, two Bachman adaptions coming out this year is cool all hell.
That both look like they totally get the source materials’ dystopias is THRILLING. The Long Walk trailer has a real 70s-gone-bad vibe. The Running Man’s has an asshole battling the world that made him into one. 😁👍🏻

Cassian Andor, Jyn Erso, Han Solo and Finn all have the same arc: from self-interested scoundrel to committed rebel.
And I enjoy the moment that change lands every single time.

I have a new car. And I have read the whole manual. (Cos autism.) But I cannot find out what these two little dudes are.
They’re not lights, microphones, air vents or speakers. The block fills a space that, on some models, stores sunglasses.
Can they really be just…nipples? For the aesthetic?!

When I first got on TikTok I was thrilled but surprised to discover hundreds of young people who loved the Phil Collins songs from Disney’s Tarzan. With a mania. None of the weary disgust of the reviews at the time.
Using Take Me Home on the new #DoctorWho trailer? Love it. I bet they will too.

If I were editing the Broccoli-Wilson 007 tribute video for the #Oscars I might not have included a clip from Never Say Never Again, since that was a rival film to their franchise…

I’m doing my best to make sense of #snl50 and it’s going pretty well - all the archive content thrown out in recent weeks set up a lot of the references and callbacks.

Ace from #DoctorWho is named for her catchphrase. Itself just a common exclamation of positivity in the 1980s.
Which is actually great. I would totally accept a modern companion named Slay.
