    Wow. That's incredibly weird.

    Thanks for indulging me! Lol

    In the end is it worth watching as a curiosity? Or a waste of time?

    An utter waste of time... but if you don't have to pay for it? Definitely watch.

    Cool! Sounds like a "movie that exists".

    When it comes to Natalie Portman sci fi, I'll stick to Annihilation for now.

    Now damn, that is a fantastic movie. Think I've watched it 5 times.

    The ending "confrontation" always gives me the heebie-jeebies. That music, the uncanny valley of it. Just...*shudders*

    That movie is the shit. Best movie of that year. I've seen it 2 or 3 times...I'd like to see it more, but it's one I have to pace myself, so I dont get TOO used to it. It's so damn good.

    I echo Annihilation being great. I thought it was more sci-fi than horror.
    Blog!

    And it's happened once again
    I'll turn to a friend
    Someone that understands
    And sees through the master plan
    But everybody's gone
    And I've been here for too long
    To face this on my own
    Well, I guess this is growing up

    While I felt that the lighthouse sequence in Annihilation somewhat overshadowed the rest of the film (as its use of periodic creature attacks to punctuate events made it feel a bit more formulaic by comparison), I did enjoy the movie on the whole anyway, and that scene is legitmately one of the best cinematic climaxes I've witnessed in recent memory:

    The first three movies I ever saw John Travolta in were Face/Off, Broken Arrow and Pulp Fiction.

    Even though he spent the majority of his career playing heroes, he has been forever cemented in my mind as a villainous actor because of those roles.

    I liked Travolta as the bad guy in Swordfish. He is fantastic in Blow Out.

    He was quite good at it it in Face/Off, too, really leaning into the gleeful sadism of Castor Troy's personality; I remember talking with a friend about Travolta a long time ago, and how (at the time) I felt he was a pretty wooden actor, only for him to say that he was good in Face/Off, then I finally watched it for myself a little while later, and I immediately thought "Damn, he was right!" in response.

    Blow Out is incredible. I was about to say that I would love to see Travolta and De Palma team up again because they both did some of their best work together...but I feel like neither of them are capable of the heights they had then.


    And Stu - agreed! I thought Travolta was a lot stronger than Cage in Face/Off.

    The first three movies I saw John Travolta in were Look Who's Talking, Look Who's Talking Too, and Look Who's Talking Now.
    Just because...
    The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
    Petite maman (CĂ©line Sciamma, 2021) mild
    The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild

    The last book I read was...
    The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain

    I ordered the new BluRay release of the 80s Rutger Hauer sci fi action flick Split Second, and Amazon sent me 2 copies by accident.

    Would anyone like the second copy?

    A Rainy Day in New York is *probably* the worst Woody Allen film (haven't seen Wonder Wheel nor his tv projects). Terrible acting from everyone. Inane, parody-level plot points and fumbled communication between people that would never, ever happen. Above all, Timothee Chalamet is absolutely awful- I'm convinced nobody read the script when they signed up for this and Allen didn't even bother to direct. I can forgive when Allen is doing his usual thing but this? This is trash.

    International funding? His movies always do fine abroad regardless of the press here.
