Just got back from it, and it was SO wonderful! I am really liking that the Russo Bros. have now worked with Michelle Yeoh as the lead actress; I hope that leads to more movies that feature her similarly.
If the apocalypse comes, beep me.

Finally saw The Tragedy of Macbeth. Very cool, especially the last couple of sword fights. Macbeth coming at wossname all unarmed was badass. Made me want to rewatch Throne of Blood and maybe Orson Welles’ version. I might need to do a Macbeth-athon at some point.

Oh, I don’t know that I’d call it bleak. It’s kind of comforting, in a way, that the Macbeths can’t really handle being usurping murderers and I’m sure Banquo’s descendants were all good and just rulers and nothing bad ever happened to Scotland again.

That's how I understand Scottish history.

I went and saw The Unbearable Something of Whatever today after getting my 2nd booster because the timing worked out well that way. I enjoyed Nic Cage playing with his image very much, but the action movie aspect didn’t work great for me.
I need to watch the latest Spider-Man before Dr Strange, right?

It's not a bad idea. And it's a good movie.

You can just end your sentence right there. It's so good.

Ok! I guess since I missed it in the theater it has been hard to pull the trigger on renting it at home, but I will get on that soon

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I couldn’t get past the horrible ableist trope in the last Spider-Man movie to actually enjoy it, but I know I’m in the minority in that opinion. I was angry for days after watching it.
