Media update - Get Out, Hedda Gabler, GotGv2, Nazeem Hussain
It's so quiet in here - kudos to those of you who go on filling the silences :)
Been spending a lot of time in RL and feeling terribly uncommunicative, but still seeing stuff, so here are some rather terse reviews.
Get Out - excellent, and much more my thing than the worthier African-American dramas nominated for Oscars this year. But then I ( Read more... ) -
Moonlight, The Play That Goes Wrong, The Lego Batman Movie
Like everyone else, I've pretty much made the transition to having DW as my main site now, but haven't quite got the hang of how to post from Semagic, so working on it. A couple of days ago I was also delighted to discover that

Life is a cabaret, old chum...
Ah, where does the time go? I think about fandom (and read lj, although not tumblr) almost every day, and yet it's been a month since I posted anything. Which of course means I've seen too many things and can't be bothered writing about them in detail. But here's a rundown in brief:
T2: TrainspottingThis was such a pleasure to watch. I wasn't ( Read more... ) -
Media update - Xander Cage, Split, Celebrating David Bowie, No Man's Land, Hidden Figures
It feels like ages since I've updated - I've been so lazy, and it's been so hot. Like, record-setting, power-grid-breaking hot. I didn't actually realise "catastrophic" fire danger warnings existed - it stopped at "extreme" when I was a kid. And we lost power for a few hours on Friday night (local fault, not load shedding) when it was still around ( Read more... ) -

Media update
I feel like I should think about Sherlock more, but a) I'm just not as invested as I used to be, even though I am still enjoying it and b) my brain is insisting that I deal with unfinished business first, which means writing about stuff I've seen so far this month. I'll keep it brief, since it's mostly for my own benefit anyway *g*
Fantastic ( Read more... ) -
Anyone?
I'm guessing most people are staying far away from Sherlock spoilers until tomorrow (my time), but if anyone would like to talk about spoilery stuff, I'm leaving this post here until then.
[Obvious warning for potential spoilers in comments.]

Speed the Plow / Arrival
...I haven't quite got the hang of crossposting yet, clearly...
***
In which I see off the old year with a post to the new journal :)
Saw Speed the Plow (David Mamet), with the excellent Rose Byrne, who I loved in Annie (shhh) but is probably better known for things like Spy and some X-Men movies. I've never seen anything by Mamet, so had no ( Read more... ) -
Move in progress - how about you?
Given the heads-up from several members of my f-list, I'm joining the move to DW. I'm still not entirely committed to moving wholesale and crossposting, but will head in that direction as and when more people make the transition. If you're on DW and haven't added me, I'd love it if you would do so please! I think my f-list is automatically ( Read more... )
