TV and Movie Chat.

Woman of the Hour with and by Anna Kendrick.

I think this movie could have benefited from another 20 minutes. The problem is that suspense over the whole movie was not built up tho individual scenes were good.

There are two ways to show a bad guy. One is to show him doing his evil acts. The other is to show how seriously the good people are chasing him.

There has to be much more screen time of the chasing by good guys than of the bad guy doing evil stuff otherwise we just don't take in the story of the good guys adequately.

So I came away from watching that movie not as affected by the stories of the victims and the victim's families struggle for answers and justice as I should have been.

A good example of the right balance is the movie Zodiac. A few scenes of evil, 90% is the chase.

3 hobbits.

I rewatched the pilot of MAS*H. It cannot be over stated how popular and influential this series was . I have watched the whole 220 episodes , some more than others. It was show I would watch after high school.

And I couldn't watch it this time. Maybe I'm tired of war and sarcasm.

But I did think of the show and pondered how American sitcoms are different to Brit culture sitcoms.

I think Americans like to have many episodes a year in their shows because they like to get to know the characters really well. Brit sitcom is 6 episodes a year and more about a situation and challenge.

I think it can all be explained by The Office and how the show differs in UK and US versions.

Iโ€™m glad itโ€™s late night so nobody sees this. I just purchased a pair of crocs. How embarrassing but Iโ€™m looking forward to the comfort.

are you going to get those cute little personalising charms? ๐Ÿ™‚ I think it's worth it just for those. And the comfort.

I have now come to realise that it takes about 4 years of early mornings to ruin my usual sleep schedule. No matter how late I sleep, how tired/exhausted I am or whether itโ€™s a day off, unless Iโ€™m unusually unwell, I cannot sleep in the same way I used to.

This is an annoying revelation. Even napping, which I do very poorly, is worse now.

I need to find a way around this. I need more hours.

I saw Vampire Survivors has a local coop mode now. I'm going to try it out with my girlfriend soon, and it sounds like a good excuse to get addicted again and get a friend hooked too

Oh damnโ€ฆ turns out while I knew I was near one bad spot, Iโ€™m actually right between two. On a busy highway per se. No wonder Iโ€™ve been getting a lot of grief.

Even with how much I keep to myself and mind my own it was unavoidable.

Had to do a "Criteria" assessment for one of the jobs I'm interviewing for - interesting insights! I don't agree to what it's said on some things, but I did answer trying to be in a strictly current role mindset, but also remembering what my current workplace has some... quirks.
