I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Duvidha. Mani Kaul, 1973.
What a fever dream of a movie. Really beautiful images, poetic, reminded me a lot of the dreaminess of La Jeteé.

Re: What movies are you watching?
little movie roundup:
Bob's Burgers: Nice little movie. Enjoyed.
Marvel Magic Madness Wizard movie: This started out terribly, then got progressively better, until the end that was actually pretty awesome. I wouldn't say it saved the movie though. I'd suggest showing up an hour late to this one. Or just fast forward to the climax. There is no reason to watch the rest.

Finally watched both The Terminator and Terminator 2 so that people would stop being upset with me.
They were both great! I get it.
