Also, if you frame Caligula as a Monty Python comedy, it's right fine.

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.

This days later chat has me thinking Carlyle might be the most underrated actor of all time.

Trainspotting (seriously goated, don't @ me)
Ravenous (the ultimate period-piece)
28 Weeks Later however brief, his performance was brilliant.

He also carried Stargate: Universe on his back.

Dude has a long dong.

Finally watched Asteroid City and I loved it real hard. Cartoonishly beautiful and full of immediately endearing characters. Goes unexpected directions and is brimming with style. Looking at the heart and soul needed to make a movie, a play, or anything. Found it super moving. ScarJo's best performance in a decade

Best 2017 movie watched this summer (out of 30) is the Finnish movie The Unknown Soldier (Tuntematon sotilas). While it was a rewatch, it really hit me this time, both in how well made it was, more or less true to history, and really Finnish in feeling.

Now rewatching American Assassin.

Should be room for a few more movies today. Need a calm day before going back to work tomorrow.

Liked American Assassin a little better in 2019, but it’s still a thrilling action filled film. Opening scene was really good.

Thinking about doing a deep dive into why zootopia is one of the most sinister movies ever made (even worse than Barbie!)
