[thrill]

I read the series this is based on. It's very weird. Looking forward to this.

After exactly a month, I finally got an email this morning that said my MoviePass card is on the way. About freaking time. Looks like next week I'll start going to the movies again!

I don't know if that's news, but I guess they've got the receipts. He's been known as a horrible person for a long time.


Unrelated, this is a fun Twitter account:

At least it's women and not little boys. Once that domino falls Hollywood will come crumbling down.

Apparently Blade Runner 2049 has nothing to do with 1987's The Running Man. That's 2049% bull [expletive] if you ask me.

Twitter is great. I don't care what anyone says.

So, who's in on this [expletive]? Even though they showed the whole compromised technology, kidnap the president, Gerard Butler loses a shirt somehow, day-saved movie in the 12 second trailer, I can't deny that panty-dropping two-door, who could*?:


*hint: not the ladies.

I've given Blade Runner plenty of tries and finally sat through all if it. Are we sure it held up well? I thought maybe the ending made all the boredom worth it (like Arrival, though Arrival (appropriate comp) never gets nearly as boring). Seriously, wtf film geeks?

There are some cool scenes, and the last act is entertaining. Also, the soundtrack was very interestingly ahead of its time with the periodic Indian/Middle-Easternishness (which is the soundtrack for every epic from 02 to 09). But it burns waaaay too slowly.

I tried to give Blade Runner another go yesterday and it really is just an unwatchable terrible movie.
