I liked that Superman 2025 let Lois Lane ask some hard-hitting questions in her role as a journalist, albeit in an informal setting. It was one of the few bits of breathing room the film had, though. That's the only problem I had with the movie.

Fantastic Four: First Steps was dull and predictable. I dug the retrofuturism. The four leads are likeable enough but they chose a dull and drawn-out storyline to go with. Just straight to a villain whose motivations are rather dull too. The comedy is as bland as I've seen in any comic book movie.

RIP Ozzy Osbourne. Such a trooper to put on that last show for all of his fans. Pioneer. Invented a freaking subgenre of rock. Not many people who can say that. A big part of the mystical/Satanic themes of heavy metal. Black Sabbath broached initial aspects of thrash metal, doom metal... Legend.

Ok I'm still playing Neopets cuz I'm l̶a̶m̶e̶ cool as shit and I just gotta ask, are there any customizations with piles of clothes on the floor or overflowing hampers? Something like this but moreso: items.jellyneo.net/item/59570/

Where is the background where I yell at my neopet to clean their room!?
Messy Dresser Trinket
Clearly there are all kinds of clues hidden in these drawers.

This moment was so Hallmark Channel that if you look closely, you can see that the fake snow is actually the writers grating cheese onto us all. #thebear #spoilers #meme #hulu #fx #thebearS4

If they ever made a beat 'em up/side scroller with the Bear characters, Mikey's ammunition would totally be forks. Melee, thrown, whatever. Too close for forks, I'm switchin' to hands. Scott Pilgrim aesthetic. #thebear #mikeyberzatto #michaelberzatto #jonbernthal #hulu #fx

Let me tell you, I was struggling with whether to end this meme with Shinji, Carmy, or Cousin. #thebear #hulu #fx #carmyberzatto #spoilers #meme

Predator: Killer of Killers was pretty badass. Wall-to-wall action. Just go into it expecting over-the-top action like in an anime instead of grounded fight scenes. Main issue I had was the low framerate. First predator was also way too big. Third chapter was the weakest. Overall 7/10.

Still can't get over how Rhaenyra went off to Dragonstone. She should've remained in KL schmoozing all the lords and ladies. Plus she could've developed a relationship with Aegon. Candy bribes and piggyback rides could have averted the war. #houseofthedragon #hotd #asoiaf

It was an amazing run for the pillows. But I get why they broke up. They seemed to be stuck in a rut creatively these past 10, 15 years. Still forever my favorite j-rock band.

I've been going down a rabbit hole lately about the history of PC and video game music tech.

A lot of the sounds in 16-bit console games were essentially compressed samples from popular sound modules. It's an interesting watch for anyone into nerdy stuff.

Mega Man X is one of my favorite vgm OSTs. Here it is remade by someone using the original hardware. This is how it would've sounded to the composers before it got compressed when they sampled everything for the game. Launch Octopus in particular sounds amazing.

Watched Late Spring (1949) by Ozu recently. What a masterpiece. Not sure if it's better than Tokyo Story but it's close. Wonder what Ozu movie I should watch next...

Anora was mostly fun but I wish they had turned down the incompetence/hijinks of the henchmen in the middle act
