The weird thing about the Star Trek Motion Picture is seeing Star Trek for the first time with good VFX, sets, and costumes. Took a few scenes to get used to it 😅 The great thing however is how it shows the scale of the Enterprise and its crew. It’s a big ship!
The Star Trek Motion Picture’s problem is not that it’s a 2-hours-long episode, but that it’s one episode stretched over 2 hours! Between yawns, there’s still a good episode in there. Somehow I managed to have never heard of the final act’s twist! Nice.
Heretic was good! I’m game for anything with Sophie Thatcher in it, but also I want to see more of Hugh Grant playing bad guys, he’s just great in this. Lots of fun theological rants (if you’re into that), and I’m very happy to see the story of the Landlord’s Game mentioned in a movie!
Another nice-looking morning out there.
The good fluffy boy is golden.
Weapons was fucking great! What could have been a by-the-book [REDACTED] story turns into a great series of “WTF is happening?!!!” by careful application of a few storytelling tropes that, in less skilled hands, might have felt like cheating the audience. Also: Aunt Gladys is great!
A little stroll to downtown Vancouver… looking good out there…
Judging from what my phone tells me, Apple thinks I was completely slacking off during my ski week…
Heart Eyes was a lot of fun. An improbable slasher/romantic-comedy combo that goes heavy handed on both accounts. The story makes no sense but it’s the boyfriend/girlfriend we made along the way that counts, right?
The good fluffy boy is learning that he should in fact NOT try to catch ducks… despite everything that his DNA and breeding tells him. Notice the untouched ducks in the background. The good fluffy boy is being good.
