Survived the arrival of St. Nicholas (Sinterklaas) since our daughter is old enough to start understanding the celebration a bit. Sinterklaas wanted to give her a hand, but she was way too shy. She did enjoy several handfuls of "kruidnoten". All in all, quite fun. I do need to relearn the songs. 😅

Every movie ever made has people who love it & people who hate it.
If you hate a movie, you're free to express that however you want on your timeline.
But don't shit on other people's positive posts. Personal opinions are just that...personal. Not right. Not wrong.

Freakier Friday was a pretty good sequel. Jokes were easy and safe a lot of the time. But the performances, especially in the final act, made it funny and surprisingly heartfelt. Jamie Lee Curtis in particular was excellent. Other fans of the the 2003 movie will probably enjoy it as well. #MovieSky

Done with my first three hours or so of the Appendices, Part 7: A Long-Expected Journey (part 1). It brings me back to the obsession I had for Peter Jackson's King Kong, and nothing changed since then. I just love watching the filmmaking process of movies I adore. #MusicSky #PhysicalMedia #TheHobbit

Bonus content will take a few months to watch, but it's so satisfying to see what incredible amount of work went into making The Hobbit and TLotR. Now reached Rivendell in the first Hobbit, and it's a joy watching McKellen, Weaving and Blanchett prepare their scene like it's a theater production.

That Steam Machine looks like a level of immersion only hinted at in peak cinema once before in the '90s.
I can't help but imagine Gabe Newell like this as soon as the first machine is plugged in.

To celebrate, I'm going to reignite my beef that BLADE RUNNER 2049 (2017) was never given the respect due. Denis Villeneuve's film is visionary masterpiece & deserves as much (if not more) love that his subsequent DUNE saga.
