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.

Blue Jean.

Really good. Loved the photography and specially the lead actress. She was so good on a very hard role.

I watched Guardians vol. 2 and 3 for the first time last night, having seen the first one years ago. I might have to walk back my "comic book movie bad" stance, because all three movies are outstanding.

I'm guessing Gamora loses her memory in one of the Avengers movies?
I haven't seen any of those. Aside from that vol. 3 seemed to pick up where vol. 2 left off.

The Guardians movies are excellent and 3 is the best one.

James Gunn's Suicide Squad movie (that is, The Suicide Squad, not 2016's Suicide Squad) is outstanding as well.

Gunn has a real gift for finding beauty in the silly and bizarre.

She is killed and then a version of her is brought over from the past. It's kind of hard to explain but that's the gist of it
