one of my favorite things to do is actually watch a movie on my laptop and on the seat back simultaneously (one with subtitles one with headphones)

There was some 20 year old blonde girl in the window seat who was watching something and on a tablet on a phone simultaneously and I said to myself, this is psychopathic behavior. Figures

I saw someone mention The Florida Project a couple days back in a way that raised my curiosity and saw that it was 111 minutes long right when I had a spare 112 minutes (not a joke, was 5:08 and I had to be done by 7) so I watched it earlier today. I lack the movie vocabulary to really get into it but I thought it was well done, if it wasnât for Dafoe popping up you could forget that you werenât watching a bunch of real people struggling to get by.
That said I mainly watched it because of a mention of an all time great closing shot thatâll stick with you forever and itâs probably the part of the movie Iâm least likely to remember.

Hello everyone! TooManyCookbooks coming to you from the sunny island nation of Malta. Some of you may know me as @MintyJuffowup âs wife. After informing him that I was invited in a familiarization trip to Malta for my part time job as a travel coordinator, Minty informed me of the existence of Popeye Village. I thought there was no way we would ever visit such a place as the company I work for focuses on the upper middle class retiree market. Little did I know that our guide for this trip was the second person to ever play Olive Oyl at the park. As soon as I mentioned how much Minty had wanted to see Popeye Village, her eyes lit up and she told me all about her time there as a young woman. She grew up in the village right next to the park and took over the role after her future sister-in-law moved on from it. She had to do a lot of physical comedy/acting for the job and told me she learned to play poker there over the summer for the role. She told me they had a bit where they would insert themselves into a park scene with mannequins, pretending to be one of them. When a family walked by and the parents looked away, they would stick their tongues out at the children, who would scream, âMommy look theyâre moving!!!â only for them to go back to being mannequins when the childrenâs parents turned around.
I was motivated to create an account here to share this story and the pictures. I hope you enjoy them. Sorry we didnât get to go inside and experience it fully.

Watched Possessor. Way more sex, a bit more violence, and not nearly as much body horror as I guess I expected going into it.
I guess it was OK.
Finding out the guy that actually directed Nightmare Before Christmas did a similar thing in 2022 produced by Jordan Peele I checked out Wendell and Wild.
It starts with a Fishbone shirt and The Specials âGhost Townâ. Ska Movie confirmed. It also has parents dying in the first 3 minutes.
Itâs filled with beautiful stop-motion animation and Ving Rhames and James Hong and a Marlon Brando Character and an Explicitly Trans Character. It also has way too much story that it also wastes too much time on stuff it didnât need to.
Fantastic Soundtrack, about 30 things to like about it, ultimately about how corporations destroy small towns and refuse to believe in humanity and community. You canât fault it for not having enough everything in it.
Still it is like 2.5 Hair Implants and definitely too scary/serious at parts.

there was a local âinteractive movieâ event that after a quick potted history of the form turned into a full screening of⌠a Final Destination 3 special dvd feature where every so often you get to make an extremely minor choice. we all chose by yelling at the screen. it was hard to tell if the branching was comically slight or if the tech didnt work correctly as it never seemed to do much but it was fun all the same, and i guess Your Choices Donât Really Matter is fitting with the premise of the series anyway.
a good movie to see in company, real bush era id stuff⌠they explain the concept of cursed premonitionary photographs by showing one of a plane shadow superimposed on the twin towers. one of the kids who temporarily escapes death is like a snarky goth-adjacent kid who wears black and makes morbid jokes - in any movie in the last 10 years heâd be one of the relateable outsider good guys but in this one heâs the threatening crazed kid who instantly flips to trying to kill the heroine and i was like oh right, i guess this is still a post columbine kind of thing instead.
the trailers for some of the lost(?) interactive movies were good. hope this one is unearthed at some point

I thought Mr Payback was on archive.
OâMalleyâs latest is 55 minutes, so that qualifies as a movie. Itâs pretty funny (but like i get not liking his sense of humor cos it can be abrasive) and kind of a bummer. Itâs a great period piece: that mii that looks like zooey deschanel, passport pics taken with some slide up phone, etc. it wasnât my suburbs but i knew idiots like that and i definitely hung out in drugstore parking lots, it made me feel real embarrassed i guess. Or i guess iâm just really glad iâm not that age anymore.

A lady at the pancake place was watching Joker Fois Gras on her phone and I watched about 10 minutes from 2 tables away when the angle was convenient.
Seemed the ideal way to watch.
For one I was eatting pancakes and could pay attention to my family at any time.

I made my previous post without watching this video and I did not expect it to so perfectly represent the people I knew in 2007
edit: my wife does that guruguruguru thing 40 minutes in, is that just a PA regionalism
