I saw Deadpool for the second time today and I appreciated it even more. I didn't laugh as much as I did the first time, but I was more focused on how well it works on a character and story level.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Oooh, elderflower old fashioned? Recipe please, thank you, Calli
Sure! 2 oz bourbon (I used Bulleit), 1/2 oz St. Elder elderflower liqueur, 5 drops Anguestera bitters. Put in a glass, add a couple of ice cubes, stir, drink. I got the recipe from a tag on the St. Elder bottle.

You're welcome, Burrell!
I'm watching High Society (Grace Kelly, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra) for the first time. It seems to be Philadelphia Story with a Cole Porter soundtrack. Nothing wrong with that.

It is exactly that, but in Newport. And with Satchmo! I prefer it actually. Well, I prefer Kelly and Sinatra. And if Grant could sing Crosby's role there would absolutely be no contest.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I love High Society.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I guess I'm in the minority because I prefer the original. Although I'm glad Crosby and Sinatra got the chance to sing a duet.

I'm on the fence. On one hand, Katherine Hepburn is my all time favorite actress. On the other hand, I could listen to Bing Crosby sing for days. But--Cary Grant! And whoever's playing the stuffy fiancé in Philadelphia Story is less annoying than whoever's playing him in High Society. But then there's the whole Cole Porter thing. Life has far too little Cole Porter in it.

I love 'em both, that's my vote
