I had a dream that was a montage of Spock going through therapy. Please, please tell me that's a fic that exists somewhere.

Back to the 1980s sexism
I have been rewatching the Back to the Future trilogy with the boy. It's 2015, so it's a must, and he had only ever seen the first one, and that only once. (I don't know how, if you were alive in the eighties, you could've avoided them ( Read more... ) -

I was listening to Christian Kane's albums today. I have two, and the third is so ludicrously expensive I won't be trying to acquire it. I probably wouldn't know who he was if it wasn't for his acting, but if I had managed to find his stuff, I'd definitely listen to it anyway. Damn that voice ( Read more... ) -

Mad Max: The Road Warrior
A Western where you know the good guys are good because they robbed a sporting goods store and the bad guys are bad because they robbed a bondage fetish gear store. Assless chaps: It's a statement.

So, turns out my enjoyment of Mad Max: Fury Road does not extend retroactively. Yeah, Mad Max was crap. Did not do it for me. And however feminist you believe Fury Road to be, Mad Max is on the opposite end of the scale.

Fury Road

I've never seen any Mad Max movies before, and I spent the whole film gripping my arm rather hard, and definitely gasped and flinched in certain parts, but that film worked for me.

Star Trek: We can haz special effects
I finished watching Star Trek: The Original Series and--oof, that third season. So I decided to started watching the movies, starting with Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Which should really be called Star Trek: Look! We Have a Budget ( Read more... ) -
Brains are funny things
The concert season is over for my choir, and so I've been feeling a little wistful and listening to recordings of old Dessoff concerts. I keep the recordings of everything we do--in fact, I have recordings all the way back to high school, though those are still on tape. As I've been in Dessoff for more than a decade, we are talking several days ( Read more... ) -

I am on a Star Trek kick, which means not only am I watching the original series for the first time (I’ve made attempts in the past but never got very far-the first episode I ever saw was Spock’s Brain; can you blame me?), I am reading some of the tie-ins, particularly the old skool ones from the seventies and eighties. I figured with the hundreds ( Read more... )
