Longlegs (2024): Sadly I am going to declare this a stinker. Too much going on: cop ESP, satanism, ciphers, weird guys. The last 20 minutes explicitly explaining all the weird stuff killed the momentum. Nick Cage would have gotten arrested for the murders immediately due to being such a freak

The Naked Kiss (1964): Sometimes picking a movie based on a cool Criterion DVD cover does not work out. This one was kind of a dud, the sort of melodrama that I don't particularly enjoy. I know "hooker with a heart of gold" is a film trope but this hooker might have the gold-est heart of all time

next step for jaylen is to get his 3PA up from 3.5 to 5+ per 36. he isn't super hesitant right now but he has to be an actual threat to be useful against good teams

Pope Leo calls for Criterion box sets of Hou Hsiao-hsien’s Taiwan and Urban Youth trilogies. “The faithful need to see The Puppetmaster in its proper aspect ratio,” the pontiff declared, “and Good Men, Good Women needs a restoration to take its rightful place as one of the great films of the 90s.”

2046 (2004): The ending of In The Mood For Love (2000) is among the best final scenes in movie history, so a sequel seems deeply superfluous. The futuristic story-within-a-story sucks pretty bad.
With that being said, I will not turn down a chance to watch Tony Leung and Zhang Ziyi smolder

Republicans will be like oh you just oppose everything Trump does. Well let me tell you, he's 100% right in getting rid of the penny. Fuck the penny.

folks this is why i wager imaginary money in a google doc rather than real money in my bank account
Tonight's wolves pick is wolves -7.5 (-108). I know the Wolves are on the second half of a road back-to-back but they beat this team by 40 less than a week ago. Awooooo
So far: 4-5, +2.7% ROI

I am going to count -25 while going 5-13 in 29 minutes as "close enough"

Apparently i need to see the hbo tv movie By Dawn's Early Light (1990)
There is and was only one Curtis Lemay and one Thomas power Jr. So why is every Hollywood portrayal of the SAC/STRATCOM commander the same: a man deep in Nebraska who is ready to initiate Armageddon at a moments notice without deliberation or hesitation? I explore in my latest⬇️
