I know the Pratchett fans jumped your entire shit the other day, but this came across my Facebook feed yesterday, and it's appropriate in this context.
And, if anyone's curious, rabbit housebreaking looks like this: Rabbit: Here is the spot I have chosen for my toilet. You: Okay, that is where I will put the litterbox.
I was busy Friday and didn't do my usual #LetterboxdFriday post, so I'm doing it today. I've hit 2004 in my Oscar-watching. And mostly for @raysidman.bsky.social (because he won't make the discussion group tomorrow), I included my review of The Forgotten in the screenshot. #LastFourWatched
The OP isn't quite a side-by-side before & after. The one on the left is (I think) Music and Harvest. The one on the right is Sacrifice. For a better before & after, here's a pic of Sacrifice taken in 2013.
Moving on from 2003 to 2004 in watching Oscar-winners and others (with a brief side-step to watch Pearl with my parents). Not shown here, because Letterboxd doesn't include TV shows: I've started on the first season of Veronica Mars, also from 2004. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
Family stuff got in the way of movie-watching this week, which is why one of these was visible on last week's list. Not pictured: I also made my brother & his partner watch all of season 1 of The Good Place. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
Finished up 2002 with Wallace & Gromit: Cracking Contraptions, then on to the 2003 Oscar winners (due to entry order, Lord of the Rings: Return of the King got pushed off the end of the list). #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
I fully recognize my own hoarding tendencies, and have worked diligently over the years to channel most of it into a form that neither occupies space nor collects dust.
No Oscar-winners this week; had to watch the traditional 4th of July movies, one new theatrical release, and a movie for the discussion group I'm in. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
I'm going to share with you the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, created by @brucemccorkindale.bsky.social. The only reason it's not currently hanging on my wall is that when he put it up on eBay, I was saving up for the one he did of the Dinosaurs characters in Terry Gilliam's Brazil.
Great movie (despite the historical inaccuracies and Lost Cause-ism).
Others have posted the most obvious album cover comparisons, but here's one that's slightly less well known.
I've made it to 2002 in my chronological watch-through of the big Oscar winners. I meant to watch the Best Foreign Language Film, "Nowhere In Africa" last night, but got busy with other stuff. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
Maps are the best. I've got my whole computer room and the hallway leading to it decorated with a bunch of game maps.
Making my way through the major Oscar winners, along with random other movies from my collection, I'm currently wrapping up 2001. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched #FilmSky
I'll put this one here, because I doubt anyone else will.
I have arrived at 2001 in watching Oscar winners (and others from my collection according to my own whims). #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
Possibly second place (and also potentially useful in a variety of situations in the world today):
"In the year 2000...." #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
