Stuff & Things
Irregular posts about various shit I find cool. Books, music, games, and whatever else. Not so much reviews, as me geeking out. Messy, random, and weird.
Shazam!
So, this is my first post since a) starting the Podcast and b) switching to substack. I’m going to start off with the usual nonsense…
Cocaine Bear
POSSIBLE SPOILERS!!!
It’s been a bit since I’ve posted but these drafts have been hanging about so I’m trying to get them out.
”I honestly can’t think of anything to compare it with.”
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania
POSSIBLE SPOILERS!!!
It’s been a bit since I’ve posted but these drafts have been hanging about so I’m trying to get them out.
”Also, kudos to Marvel for finally getting around to including one of my all-time favorite villains since I was a kid.”
Original 1910 Frankenstein Restoration
The Library of Congress blog has announced that they have finally resored the original Frankenstein after 108 years. This is a pretty huge moment in early film history.
War for the Planet of the Apes (Spoiler Free)
It's a bleak world, with some hard truths about where we've been and where we're going but it never becomes didactic and is not without hope. There are a lot of historical parallels drawn throughout, as well as current ones, and a few very endearing moments of levity that speak to the humorist that, hopefully, resides in all of us. It asks a lot of questions that it expects us to take on our way out because the answers aren't in the narrative. They're not for Caesar or The Colonel but for us.
