Film

Dredd (2012)

A midnight movie fit for tumblr that plays like the little sister of Mad Max: Fury Road and The Raid. Extremely solid and also features Lena Headey almost knifing Domhnall Gleason in the belly. I am a simple woman of simple tastes.

Funny Or Die Presents Donald Trump's The Art Of The Deal: The Movie

I just super-needed something silly and dumb this week, and this fit the bill. Depp does great weird comedy, so it’s nice to see him apply himself to this. Also, that theme song is great.

Music

Selena Gomez, Revival

I accidentally listened to this entire album on Spotify ( Read more... )

Film

Knightriders (1981)

WHAT A GOOD MOVIE. The motorcycle action sequences still drag, but it’s so homey and warm and loving, despite its downer ending.

Television

The Great British Bake-Off (2014)

This is all I could muster last week; just nice British people making nice British pastries in a tent they have to take the bus to on weekends. I ( Read more... )

Fanfiction

Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi/Qui-Gon Jinn, “Hour that is mine” by randomalia (spilinski)

Looks like my sci-fi ships are all about the tragedy of surviving your beloved and living on a desert planet. Obi-Wan contemplates what he’s lost in exile, and I cry a thousand buckets.

Star Wars, “Hope’s Worth is Written with a Golden Quill” by ( Read more... )

The Star Wars Prequels

I watched a fan edit of the prequels that was about four hours, which was a fun way to revisit the prequels. And Ewan McGregor's Obi-Wan Kenobi. I am now poking around at this dead ship, which means wandering through fic archives that have been inactive for years. Magical.

No update last week because I didn’t consume anything last week.

Film

The Comeback Kid (2015)

John Mulaney’s greatest bits are the long, intricately woven stories he often tells at the end of his acts-like the Salt and Pepper Diner or “The One Thing You Can’t Replace.” And The Comeback Kid has an amazing story about Bill Clinton that is perfect ( Read more... )

The Addams Family (1991)

We don’t really make living cartoons like this anymore, do we?

Saturday Night Live, “Christopher Lee/Meat Loaf”

“Howard, don’t hang back! You two are going to work together in the future!”

Saturday Night Live, Tracy Morgan/Demi Lovato”

A 30 Rock reunion (JOYOUS), Larry David as Bernie Sanders (and kind of glowingly happy about it, which is very sweet), and Astronaut Jones’ amazing theme song? ( Read more... )

Film

Crimson Peak (2015)

A luxurious but straightforward gothic romance for the cinema.

Television

Sailor Moon, “Shadow of Evil: the Trio's Last Chance”

WAIT, WHAT? The Amazon Trio learn that they aren’t, technically, people, sending Fish’s Eye into an identity crisis over whether or not he even has a soul. This is some dark stuff.
