Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret trailer.
I'm still not sure how I feel about a movie version of that book but I suppose it was inevitable and, if so, I trust Kelly Fremon Craig. The Edge of Seventeen was so good.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm so glad it's a period piece (npi).

I'm 50-50 on (1) being incredibly delighted and (2) wanting to run far and fast in the other direction.

I remember the book already being dated by the time I read it (very late 70s-early 80s), because I was totally confused when the book talked about pads with belts. I was picturing, like, a leather belt you use to hold your pants up! (In my defense, I was 9 or 10 years old, and pretty much Amelia Bedelia.)

It'd be cool if Angela Bassett and Michelle Yeoh won!
But I think Cate is going to take best actress.
Kinda feel like Brendon is going to win. There's a lot of feel-good vibe around that performance.

A fat suit and an actor's triumphant return? Hollywood eats that shit up.

Bring him back for another Mummy movie, along with the rest of the original cast, and *then* you're talking pure gold. But hard pass on the fat suit.
I completely missed The Banshees of Inisherin when it was released. I'll have to watch it on HBO Max.

So far this is what I'm rooting for, but only because I think Women Talking has no chance.
