I can’t believe how good Roadside Picnic is. Sad like Hemingway’s good stories and a voice like Chandler but also totally weird. This is the book that became bones of the story for Stalker.

The Dougie stuff sure is some uninspired stuff. Episode 5 is not a very good gear shift. I'm not encouraged.

Twin Peaks 2.12
The Romeo & Juliet (subtitles strangely read for us too dear instead of for earth too dear)
The witchcraft
The Duchovny
Feels like many many scenes in this show (not this episode in particular) are just excuses for the music.

Young Pope 1.07
Temptations. Power. Sure. But what was the last temptation in the Last Temptation of Christ? Wow, I read that book before college and was blown away by it. I wonder how it holds up.

The Young Pope is an office comedy with funny clothes.

Young Pope 1.03
Papacy: this is the ridiculous system you have, and you put Lenny in the big chair.
USA: this is the ridiculous system you have, and you put Trump in the big chair.
They could not have planned a more miraculous timing of this release.

Walking Dead general comment
I've made it as far as 5.13.
I want to say how much I appreciate the efforts they make to have a unique method of zombie kill in each episode. That must be pretty exhausting.

"There are two kinds of life. There is, as Viri says, the one people believe you are living, and there is the other. It is this other which causes the trouble, this other we long to see."
The strange narrator in James Salter's Light Years shortens the Great Gatsby to near Twitter length.

I haven't been to nearly as many movies this year, but Sicario is a good one. The war on drugs as a war not an import/export problem. It's not Dante's hell, but the canyon'd wilderness above after a tunnel was dug out of there. Might be my personal version of Fury Road for 2015 movies.
