Some things Iโve experienced lately, in no particular order, and not necessarily only recent stuff:
Ratched (TV): I want another season immediately
I’m Thinking of Ending Things (Movie): This generally blew my face off
Rage (Book): Starting to think that this Trump guy may have made a few mistakes ๐คทโโ๏ธ
The Boys (TV): Diabolically great as always
Class Action Park (Movie): Mindblowing
Challenger: The Final Flight (TV): Heartbreaking and maddening
Cuties (Movie): An important, emotional story (subsequently ruined by online morons)
The Three-Body Problem (Book): Have just started this, but am already being pulled into its world
We Are Who We Are (TV): An interesting look at military base teen culture
Feels Good Man (Movie): That poor, poor artist ๐
Helter Skelter: An American Myth (TV): I’m perpetually fascinated by the Manson story
The New York Times Presents (TV): I liked this when it was The Weekly, and I feel like it’s been even better since the reboot
King of The Cruise (Movie): Powerful vibes from this guy
I Am A Killer: Released (TV): Quite a story
Coastal Elites (Movie): An interesting embrace of COVID constraints
Raised By Wolves (TV): Have just started this, but ๐ so far
The Social Dilemma (Movie): There’s certainly much more to clarify/investigate for those that were shocked by this (I’ve heard criticism of the Hong Kong stuff specifically), but it’s a decent jumping-off point
The Third Day (TV): Also early with this, but I’m intrigued
Pure (TV): As someone with severe OCD (including “Pure-O” episodes), it’s awesome to see a show diving into this subject matter
