I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, I don't know how that happened. I'll have to check the library

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm just excited for Brendan Fraser getting to do something fun.

Doom Patrol was fun! When it wasn't being annoying. And Brendan Fraser's character was the biggest offender when it came to being annoying. But sometimes it was fun!

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Is it weird that I pictured the latest Fantastic Four as in an AU where maybe JFK didn't get shot?(Not that I'd expect the pace of change in real life to be *that* much slower. Some, though.)

Wake Up Dead Man is really good, I may have to marathon all three soon. Also, Beignet Blanc on Sesame Street (and Daniel Craig’s reaction) is delightful

Oh, I really didn't care for it. I guessed the ending pretty early on and kept waiting for something to surprise me but it never did.

I like an impossible crime and while I wasn’t surprised by whodunnit I hadn’t worked out all the details (I was sure that Nate had killed his wife so it was a relief that that wasn’t part of it…

I must admit, I spent kind of a lot of time trying to remember which classic mystery had the lectern or podium or whatever that was built like a ship (I am still doing this, have not remembered), and it took me until this morning to recall that the thing that Grandad priest putting all his money into a jewel reminded me of was K J Charles’ Thief in the Night, which is a favorite.

And “scooby-dooby-doo” made my day

Okay, I love that the proshot of Merrily We Roll Along enabled me to see the Groff-Mendez-Radcliffe cast performance, because holy cow, they are all so fucking good. They deserved those Tonys. And I honestly appreciate the use of *some* closeups, but that was too many closeups. But the choice to use a lot of closeups didn't make the performances or music any less great. I love me some Sondheim.

hwæt

Wake Up Dead Man is my favorite of the three, by a lot. Rian Johnson managed to ease back on the campiness, so that Craig was less Foghorn Leghorn, but also with the rest of the cast, and everything was dialed in perfectly.
