Now Watching Moana. Could've sworn I saw this a decade ago, but whatever.
RIP Gene Shalit, an alliteration fiend of a film critic, referring to Ishtar as "ish-terrible."
Sharon Apple has declined to play at President Trump's Freedom 250 celebration.
Phantasy Star IV. The music and sound effects alone are superb.

Happy #TransDayofVisibility. Watch some movies by trans filmmakers.
Finally, there's YouTube PoopTroop, Saturday at midnight. We're just gonna watch some YouTube Poops with a crowd and laugh our butts off.
The Horrors of Anime is back this year for another absurd showcase of anime diced up for your weird pleasure. It'll be at 10:30 pm on Saturday in Greenway H on the second floor.
Saturday night at 7:30 pm in Lakeshore A, I'll be hosting (In)Correct Anime History, a satirical panel that makes up complete BS about anime.
On Saturday morning, I'm talking classic cartoons from the 20th century.
Following that panel at 8:00 pm, in the same room, I'll be talking about the 2000s era of being an anime fan and what made it so special.
I'll be at Anime Detour next week. Here are the panels you can expect to see me hosting. First up, on Friday at 6:30 pm in Lake Bemidji, is Getting Into Gundam, where I attempt to explain G Gundam. 🧵
Also, one week before this movie came out, Pacific Rim Uprising was released in theaters, which features another Gundam cameo.
