Amy, if you can, watch The Endless completely unspoiled. I couldn't find any spoilers beforehand, and I'm actually glad about that, even tho' the movie left me uneasy for days.

Like I haven't already seen that!

I'm using it for rage and stress management.

In other news, I finally got a Roku. It was too annoying to do the HDMI computer hookup for Criterion. I hadn't realized how cheap or small they were! And now my Blu-Ray player can go back to just being a DVD player.

Unfortunately, now Amazon, Criterion, Hulu, Kanopy, Mubi, and Netflix are all in the same place and I'm a bit overwhelmed by choice.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm a bit overwhelmed by choice.

Sometimes I just default to cooking and baking shows.

I saw We Have Always Lived in the Castle last night, and adored it. There were a few changes from the novel: Cousin Charles became physically violent toward Merricat, which is what prompts her to start the fire. When he comes back to the house after the fire, he attacks Constance and Merricat bashes his head in.

While I'd rather that they kept Cousin Charles as more subtly controlling and creepy so that Merricat's actions had a less "obvious" trigger, it still works.

As soon as we got to the first scene of Merricat burying things in the forest as spells to protect them, my big brother by proxy looked at me and said, "How old were you when you read this and imprinted?" Which, fair comment.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Vanity Fair just put up their big Star Wars Ep IX spread.

Main cover story including an interview with JJ Abrams: [link]

In what has turned into a SW/Vanity Fair tradition over the years, set photos by Annie Leibovitz: [link]

Predictably, there isn't much of plot related info, but I am both intrigued and kinda worried about what they are doing with the Carrie Fisher footage from TFA they have retrofitted to this movie.

The photos are great as usual. The one with Finn and Naomi Ackie's character on space horses in particular looks fucking awesome.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I saw Booksmart last night, and it was good! Kind of a John Hughes movie for Today's Youth, but better. A lot of really funny parts and enough heart.

The trailer looks a lot like a girl led version of Superbad.

I haven't seen Superbad, but sure.
