    Whoa.

    I'm guessing this is Scott's outlet to continuing the David android story-line, waiting patiently for the dust to settle on the Disney Fox deal. I mean, this looks gorgeously perfect for the Alien Universe.

If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    I'm skeptical of the hype building around this movie. Obvs I hope to hell I'm wrong, but sheesh.

    It's a good sign they are building this brand as much as they can. Hints that the execs like what they see with the movie.

    I sure hope so. I get nervous with hype.

    Also it appears I was wrong about this prediction:

    Or that they're operating under pressure from AT&T, whose stated goal is to pump out as much "content" as possible.

    Just got HBO Max for Lovecraft Country and the Guadagino series.

    They have a HECK of a movie collection. Probably better than Netflix's.

    Awesome.

    I just bought a Samsung TV, and it comes with a decent selection of movies to stream as some part of SamsungTV thing. Very odd. Also, I bought too big a TV for the bedroom.

    Anyone watching Lovecraft Country? It's a wilder, weirder pastiche than I expected, having not read the source material. The zig-zagging tones and tropes and story lines do a slight disservice to the overall plot, as we never quite feel settled, but this also enables some truly stunning one-off episodes mostly devoted to one particular character. Just finished "I Am," and it was just awesome. It feels like this whole show is a series of bottle episodes--tho intentionally done and on a larger budget--more than a standard narrative. Once I adjusted to that, I'm enjoying it enormously.

    It feels like it wants to be both Prestige TV serialization and episode-of-the-week throwback format, and get messy at both. Still interesting enough, and indeed sometimes that mix leads to great episodes (I love the pilot, the Korea-set "Meet Me in Daegu", and the creepfest of "Jig-a-Bobo").

    Whew this was a whole mess of not good. It's so hyper-mannered and facile for a kids' movie. Spencer is earnest and talented enough to give it a heroic effort, trying amiably to make terrible material work. Hathaway is allll over the place, proverbially and literally. This isn't even half-baked. It's quarter-baked at best. Rock's narration is terrible and unnecessary. It's exactly what I expected, regrettably. It's a wobbly, lopsided mess.
