I’d agree with you. The actors, singing, set design, choreography, are all amazing. The story is just uninspiring and I think it’s reflected in the performances outside the musical bits.

Hot take, but Wicked. It’s an average movie with a huge marketing budget preying on nostalgia for a much better film.
Like, it wasn’t bad, but it certainly was my biggest letdown of the year.
Also — movie starts, title card… “Part 1”? Fuck right off, Disney.

I walked away to do something else for 30 minutes in the middle and I don’t think I missed anything. It was very much like a Hallmark movie. Doesn’t help that Dakota Johnson can’t act her way out of a paper bag, and the rest of the cast just phoned it in.

Somebody deepfake and broadcast this for the next State of the Union. Please.

I like it. Dolph and Frank better get a cameo, too.

His videos have some good points but damn I hate his aloof presentation style.

Why do you want to know? I didn’t do anything!

File for an extension? That would at least buy you some time, and as far as I’m aware, it’s free to do so. I’ve never done it, though, so I’m not sure if there are other implications.

It’s a nice chord, but it annoys me irrationally that you have an octave between C and E on the staff but not on the keyboard below it.

He looks damn good and mentally sharp for 93. We should all be so fortunate.

I thought it was a student art film project at first.

Looks fun. Loved seeing Taggart and Rosewood again. I’m sure there will be lots of fun throwbacks too. Exciting!

If entertainment companies are against it, then it likely is a good and effective law in favor of the people.

Good luck to all the engineers billions of years from now having fun moving to 128-bit time. What fools we were.
- Comment on [I just watched] Spider-Man - Across the Spider-Verse 1 year ago:
I suspect the second will feel improved when the third comes out to finish the conclusion. It’s hard to end a movie on a cliffhanger like that.
I do agree with you, though. I like the first one better and it does feel like a tighter story. Also an amazing opening sequence that just pulls you right into the world (and is a great home audio test).
But I have no doubt that when I see the third film I’ll likely appreciate the second more.
- Comment on MS to update Windows every 3 years 1 year ago:
Surely you’re all running with the same security policy, agents, and account permission constraints (e.g. no local admin) as all your Windows counterparts so you have a true comparison?
And you can get a “real” terminal on Windows right now.
- Comment on Marvel Studios' The Marvels | Official Trailer 1 year ago:
Looks looks a fun popcorn movie. Still haven’t watched the Ms Marvel series, though. Wonder if the backstory will be that important.
The worst part about that trailer, in my opinion, was the massacre of the Beastie Boys for that crappy remix. (Side note: didn’t MCA forbid use of Beastie Boys music in ads in his will when he passed?)

Following up – I wouldn’t say it’s a perfect film, but it is a damn good blockbuster, and I really enjoyed it. One death I really didn’t like, and as a huge fan of the actor’s previous work was looking forward to seeing them more in these next two films.

Bought my ticket for Friday’s showing on Tuesday. Super excited. Tom may be nuts, but I think he’s proved he can repeatedly make damn good blockbuster movies.
