Sitting down for Spooky Season Day 8 (In 30 minutes technically).

Spooky Season Begins! From Aug 1st-Oct 31st I watch at least 1 Horror, Thriller, Supernatural, and/or Paranormal project per day. DAY 1 (August 1st) Fall (2022) and a rewatch of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (part of a marathon for my mom).

Poster for the 2022 film Fall. A brunette girl in a white shirt and jeans sits on the top of a 2000 foot radio tower and looks down at a blond girl hanging by a rope as a ladder falls to the ground.

The movie poster for Fantastic Beats and Where to Find Them. A redheaded wizard man in a long blue coat holds out a wand that glows blue on the end. On the right behind him is a short haired white, blond woman and a short man with a mustache. On the left side of the front man is a brunette woman with a long coat and a white shirt. New York City in the 20s is the background.

Some apps are really like, “We need to change the terms and conditions every week.”

Darth Vader in Empire Strikes Back saying, “I Am Altering the Deal. Pray I don’t alter it any further.”

Yeah, it makes this headline extra funny.

Name a film with a title that is a full sentence. “Go (1999)”

The poster for the 1999 film ‘Go.’ A blond woman in a red Jacket over a black top with black pants tosses a yellow card into the air of the foreground that reads the movie title ‘Go’ in red. Above the title reads, ‘from the director of Swingers.’ Below the title reads, ‘life begins at 3 am.’ Behind the girl deeper in the background is a squatting brunette man in a green shirt with a gun in his right hand that is resting against his mouth, casually. Behind him is a brunette woman with a green crop top and a black leather jacket. The background is blue.

Lmao this is so surreal. This sounds like the film I wanted to make around 2023ish? Maybe before that. I told my then-fiancée about it and she was just like, “Why?” lol. I’m glad someone is doing it. Godspeed. (Mine obvi wasn’t ’coming of age’ because I was like 35 and going lead).

Best film adaptation of The Odyssey, wrong answers only

A poster of the cinematic masterpiece Without a Paddle. Actor Matthew Lillard on the left. Seth Green center. Dax Shepard on the right. They are standing on a red canoe. It is under water. They are standing as if on land in their clothes but up to their noses in water. A few big fish swim around them.

Who's your favorite super-hero (Without saying Batman or Spider-man) Even with Batman and Spider-Man available, my fave has been Daredevil since like the sixth grade, replacing the The Flash (who is still top five).

The Marvel Super Hero, Daredevil, sitting on a ledge on a clock tower with the big clock behind him. It is raining heavily.
