Flee, Vonnie! Go see Frozen 2.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, good, I just saw that Uncut Gems existed a couple days ago and couldn't figure out if it was for me or not - I now suspect that it is. Thanks, Vonnie!
Bombshell seems like an excellent cast and probably a good movie but I just can not with that. It is reminding me that I still want to see Atomic Blonde, though.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I might just see little women in the theatre. I have to point out that I never see movies in the theatre, to the point the last one might have been Cars. Or Chicago. I did watch Moulin Rouge multiple times, though. Right now, my big barrier is driving- there are no theatres really on a bus line. And Maria hates to go with me because ai talk/sing.

I do want to see Little Women; maybe this weekend. But I'm a no for Uncut Gems, that sounds like nails-ona-chalkboard for me.

Have you watched Fleabag? In S2, Andrew Scott TOTALLY has that quality. Vonnie can attest to that.
Is it easy to get past his association with other roles? For example, Moriarty. Which, you know, keeps making this Hot Priest thing confusing for me, but I haven't watched Fleabag.

I know I need to see Little Women, but truth be told it was the first book that made me ugly cry as a child and I never re-read it from the childhood trauma. More than 5 decades later I might take it better.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I was AMAZED at how easy it was for my brain to make the switch from Moriarty to Hot Priest.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
My brain never got over the Moriarty thing, and I'm still trying to process where the Hot part is supposed to come in.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I adored Little Women. I might have unseated the 1994 version as my new favourite.
It's not a completely straightforward adaptation. I mean, all the story beats are there, but slightly... scrambled. It's formally inventive and has some startlingly metafictional side to it, which may give LW purists a pause. It really worked for me though.
All the cast is first rate but a particular shoutout to the Florence Pugh for being the Best Amy Ever. I can't get over how splendid that casting choice was, honestly. She's such a sparkly, charismatic pistol, it's kind of difficult to look at anyone else when she's on screen (which is saying a lot given the rest of the cast). Also, this is first time a LW adaptation really sold me on Amy/Laurie.
Oh, and make sure to take some Kleenex to the theater. The sad parts made me cry until I had a headache.

Ditto. Basically from the first scene, he was just Hot Priest.
