some thoughts on Wicked For Good:

– pretty dour & joyless compared to Wicked
– stop trying to make “in a clock’s tick” happen
– the reveal of Elphaba’s father fell super flat
– trying to perfectly retrofit the Wicked story so fits into the 1939 classic was… a choice
– questionable messaging IMHO

I just beat The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the first time… 8 years & 8 ½ months after the game was released (and yes, I bought it at launch).

while waiting in line at Costco today, an older guy behind me commented on my t-shirt (that of an iconic local record store) and asked if they were still in business. I said, “yes, still doing well, fortunately.”

with zero shame, he then admitted to me he hasn’t paid for music “since Napster” 🤨😑😮‍💨
