I bought this on a whim thanks to @jasondashbailey.com. I’ll probably wait until I can get a few people together to watch it, but I’m excited by the idea.

I'm happy to see the war on CLOUD ATLAS continues even now. In 2012, Roger Ebert praised the film with a four-star review, while it was also named the worst film of the year by Time magazine.

Happy 250th to Jane Austen. There’s a lot of obvious choices of movies/TV to watch, but if you’ve never seen it, watch Love & Friendship

I watched four documentaries last week, and only one made the shortlist. Time well spent. (I liked two of them, "The Perfect Neighbor" and "Predators")

I knew The Testament of Ann Lee would probably be deemed ineligible due to its usage of existing material, but this still blows.

Also, Lewis Pullman is terrific in the movie. And obviously, so is Amanda Seyfried.

Make sure you see THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE in theaters. I believe it's the first female-directed movie to be shown in 70mm (Wonder Woman had a 70mm blowup). That and I love it.

The Searchers got a beautiful 4K UHD from WB Achieves. The beginning of the second half (vol.2) opens with a shot very reminiscent of that movie. external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%...

I had to remove a lot of KPOP Demon Hunter, Kidz Bop, and weirdly Celeste B-Sides to get an honest look at my top songs of the year.
I don't even remember listening to that Addison Rae record that much.
