watching GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS and i am very tickled by the idea of briefing a Senate subcommittee on Godzilla
how would you even get on the Godzilla committee anyway? the west coast senators obviously. who else?
imagining the late night vote-a-rama on the godzilla response reconciliation bill
senator mike rounds insist that we cannot pass the godzilla appropriation because “the Founders did not intend for the the federal government to handle Titan response, that’s a responsibility for the states”

right. and a 0 percent vacancy rate is the sign of a extremely unhealthy housing market, where demand greatly outstrips supply and people don’t ever move or change residences
also, if it were true, the homeless population and the unoccupied housing aren’t evenly and equally distributed. are we going to round up homeless people in norfolk and ship them six hours out to bristol and abingdon?

my wife chose KILL BILL, VOL. 1 for our movie tonight so that’s what’s on! i have not seen this since i was in high school
first thought: this movie is very bright and colorful compared to most modern action flicks!
yes! the highly choreographed brutality of the fighting in that scene is something we wouldn’t get in a major studio film again until, what, John Wick?

an annual household income of $400,000 puts one in the top 2 percent of households! no you aren’t a billionaire or multi-millionaire but that doesn’t mean you aren’t very affluent.
also, it is not all that difficult to drop 40 stacks on a toyota
part of the problem here is that the existence of the super wealthy has made the merely rich seem less affluent than they actually are.

great scene, incredibly frustrating movie. denzel is magnetic whenever he is on the screen but the film is built around russell crowe’s much less compelling protagonist
in fairness “great scenes, frustrating movie” is the ridley scott special
absolutely. there’s that whole run of tony scott movies that basically ride on the fact that Denzel is the most compelling screen presence of his generation

any substance that is available in cookie form at a neighborhood store is probably something that shouldn’t disqualify adults from employment
i was promised no malarkey and this looks like some dang malarkey

we’re watching MANK tonight and my immediate thought is that the lighting is bad
i’m not comparing the lighting to color films, i’m comparing the lighting to the films MANK is trying to invoke. even something as dark and shadowy as RAW DEAL (1948) which takes place mostly indoors, has bright highlights
okay, here’s the thing. i am actually totally for a movie that tries to emulate the look and rhythms of a film from the late 1930s and early 1940s. but if you’re going to do it, do it! it is distracting to me, for example, that the editing rhythms are still very modern.
