I went another two months without writing a media diet! These posts are way too important to ignore for that long, so let’s get into the crap I took in. But before that, look at this ๐ Table of โฆ Read more
Monkey Man was brutal action fun. Big ups to the trans community training Dev Patel how to kick the corrupt cop’s ass. ๐ฟ
Did I watch Friday the 13th Part 6 and 7 last night? Yes, yes I did. Do the teenagers behave like humans? No, they do not. But they do behave like Friday characters, so that’s consistent. ๐ฟ
Media Diet: FebruaryโApril 2024

๐ฟ My year in film stats, via Letterboxd. Do I stand behind all my star ratings? No. Will I revise them? Absolutely not. Most interesting takeaway? Only a quarter of the 93 movies I watched were released in 2023.
