finished watching František Hrubín 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
A short video poem about the writer/poet that helped write the story of Beauty and the Beast (1968). It had a few good lines!

Wow wow wow.

A gorgeous adaptation of a classic text. Eager to revisit this one.

finished watching The Pillar of Fire 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
Crazy.

finished watching The Odyssey 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
A beautiful looking movie that is merely fine. (I added and deleted "soulless" a half dozen times. I swapped it with "joyless" a few times, but that didn't feel right either.)

The best kind of Benny Safdie role (you barely see him, he barely talks).

Robert Pattinson is a little scene stealing sonofabitch.

My face lit up and I said to myself "I forgot she was in this!" when Mia Goth appeared. When the movie ended, I thought "That's it? That's all Mia got?"

I don't know who I would've replaced Matt Damon with, but I would've.

My favorite parts were the times when Odysseus plucked the string on his bow and the sound was incorporated into Ludwig Göransson's score.

That and Circe having her way with the boys. What can I say? I love a witch.

When they traveled past the Sirens and all but the score cuts out, the song reminded me of Björk's "The Anchor Song" That's now been in my head for three days (Björk, not the score).

finished watching Le singe musicien 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
Look at that monkey go!

finished watching Terminator: Dark Fate 🌕🌕🌑🌑🌑
I'd hate for this rating to be misconstrued as Dark Fate being as good as ("as good as") Terminator Genisys, or even that it's better than Terminator Salvation for that matter.

I debated 1.5 or 2, and what it ultimately came down to is not anything about the movie itself (which isn't great) (clearly), but the jokes that my good friend Jesse and I were able to make about it while the movie was happening at us.

I liked the opening and the idea of Carl (cool name) being from a future that never happens, but that's about it.
