100%. People used to act and dress old back in the day once they hit their 30s I think. And I'm convinced that acting old does make you age faster in some ways.

Watching the 1958 Dracula. One of the scariest things about it is that Peter Cushing is only 45 years old.

#LastFourWatched Lovely palate cleanser of Field of Dreams.

'Tonight'. And tomorrow morning, right?

Yes!

3 things you can talk about for hours without prep.

1. Retrogaming
2. Time travel
3. Professional wrestling

I'm imagining it's the Arnie predator handshake though.

Urgh. BlueSky isn't loading me the last two GIFs you've posted! Unless both GIFs are a black rectangle with a spinning wheel.

And just remember Pax, I have the same (correct) Star Wars ranking as you. Jedi, then Star Wars, then Empire. 👍

Retromash @retromash.bsky.social · 22d

Well, my star ratings might be slightly unreliable and dependent on my mood, but I actually think I maybe did enjoy 2 slightly better than 1! Enjoyed both. Seen Terrifier 1 and it was totally fine.

Retromash @retromash.bsky.social · 22d

Terrifying indeed.

#LastFourWatched Entering horror season again with my son. Wow Magnolia is scary 😉

Next movie is just Palpatine in the shower and the whole rest of the Star Wars cannon has been a dream.

Retromash @retromash.bsky.social · 29d

Ooh that one would be super interesting

Retromash @retromash.bsky.social · 29d

Great!

Retromash @retromash.bsky.social · 29d

Magnolia and Jaws?

Retromash @retromash.bsky.social · 29d

I'd never gotten around to see it. I really got into baseball on my US trip so I'm watching a bunch of baseball movies. Also made a list of Vegas movies and a huuuuge list of LA movies that I want to watch/rewatch.

I'm going to go for Lenny Kravitz' first album Let Love Rule. Bending the rules as it was released in Sep 89, but I very much consider it a 90s album. I never skip a song. It's great from start to finish. And he basically wrote, recorded and performed the whole thing himself which is amazing.

I did not love the Den of Thieves sequel. I was disappointed. Yeh D&D was great
