The plan was to see it tomorrow while ltc went out with my in-laws, but now ltc is sick and I need a new plan.
I've tried to march in the Slayer Pride Parade ...

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
HQ: BoP was *excellent* fun. The plot is paper-thin, but I didn't mind one bit. The girl power themes are hammered HARD and not with any subtlety, which for me was exactly what I wanted and so it was great.
Margot Robbie is a joy to watch. She is having SO MUCH FUN.
Ewan MacGregor's performance is...confusing, but as a personification of rich white male fragility it kind of works?
The fight choreography which has been praised everywhere is REALLY that good. And well lit! You can actually see what people are doing!
The pace lags a bit in the middle, but the last 1/3rd makes up for it. I would have liked less set up and more time with the girl gang all together.
I have already complained on Twitter about the unforgivable sandwich continuity error.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Her face when she's hiding in the evidence room and realizes the air is full of cocaine.

Also, seeing a bunch of women's names in the credits was pretty great

I enjoyed that - women in front of and behind the cameras.
I did wonder what ita would have thought about the fight scenes - they looked good to me, but it's not something I have any expertise in. On the - literally - bright side, they were done with enough lighting you could see what was going on.
