Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Exactly that, Matt. I'm amazed more people weren't interested in Under the Skin. Between that and Lucy , I thought the reactions would be the other way 'round.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Loved Under the Skin.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I didn't enjoy Lala Land as much as I expected to, but I did enjoy it. My mother and I both agreed that Emma Stone's costumer was blind and/or a moron for 3/4 of what they dressed her in. It was actually distracting how bad she looked so much of the time (or my mom and I are just really superficial people?).

Punishingly Intricate

Huh, I thought Emma Stone looked pretty fab throughout. Now I have to go back and look!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Over the holidays I didn't have anything in particular to watch and came across the 1980s Flash Gordon - Sam Jones as Flash, Melody Anderson as Dale, Topol as Dr. Zarkov, Timothy Dalton as Barin, Brian Blessed as the king (?) of the hawkmen, Max Von Sydow as Ming. It was kind of cheesy fun. And Brian Blessed looked like he was having a BLAST - chomping scenery with gusto. Best line - one of the hawkmen was wounded and said, "they just winged me" (snerk).

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Dude, Flash Gordon is THE ACTUAL BEST. It's so fantastically campy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Brian Blessed is everything in that movie.

I really loved him ... and remember him as Augustus in I, Claudius?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I was a kid, babysitting other kids, a year or so after Flash Gordon came out. I was at the house of a family I regularly watched and went to pop a movie in the VCR for us to watch. Actually, they may have had a Beta, but whatever. There was a tape in the machine and the edge read Flash Gordon, so I thought. Hey, silly fun movie, why not. Ummmm, that is when I learned about pornos that mimic the names of "regular" movies. Luckily I caught it before things went too far, but dang. Bad babysitter. I have no idea if the kids told their parents or if the parents wondered why the tape was in their room when they came home. I just didn't know where else to put it, ya know?
