Mothra vs. Godzilla, 1964 (contains spoilers)

This review may contain spoilers.

Really nice cinematography, doing wide shots and camera moves that you don’t always see in the human scenes. Also, two caterpillars kick Godzilla's ass with webbing.

In this one, it’s pretty racist.

Godzilla vs. Biollante, 1989 (contains spoilers)

In this one, the psychic gets turned into a flower monster, and a man in a hard hat gets bonked with a big bonk sound.

Gentle reminder that Black Sabbath’s Sabotage album cover was itself the victim of sabotage.

The album cover for Sabotage by Black Sabbath features the band members standing in front of a large mirror with the album title above them. They are wearing wild-ass clothes.

The designers “carried on with the shoot, explaining they would superimpose the images at a later stage and that it would look great, to be honest. The session was unbelievably rushed, and the outcome was far from what had been originally envisaged.”

Those were their street clothes. 🎵 🤘

Bring Her Back, 2025 - ★★★★

Sally Hawkins is so, so good. She gives the biggest feel bad toxic positivity performance I've maybe ever seen, and somehow you're still sort of rooting for her. Also, features one of the gnarliest gore scenes that had my roommates and I crawling up the couch. A+.

Weapons, 2025 - ★★★★

Finally got around to seeing this. Wha a romp. Beat window smashing in recent memory.

Talk to Me, 2022 - ★★★★

What a great modern horror movie.

Happy Halloween 🎃

I voted early today, and got myself that sweet sweet Halloween sticker, along with supporting a mayor I’m actually excited about. Let’s go Mamdani! 🌇🇺🇸

Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla, 1994

This movie happened.

Astoria loves Lions.

A neighborhood flower.

A vibrant pink and white flower blooms among green foliage by a sidewalk, with cars and autumn-colored trees in the background.

I took a photo I only kind of liked. Something was missing. Turns out? Mirror.

Playing with desaturation.

One Battle After Another, 2025 - ★★★★★

This movie rules. Saw it in vista vision and only the front row was left. Had a great time but my neck hurts.

Retsina doesn’t always sit in the toy box, but when she does, she drinks Dos Equis. 🐈

A good rain.

A vibrant red rose blooms amidst lush green foliage, with a blurred park setting in the background.

Playing with hyper saturation at the intersection of industrial and green space, in Astoria.

I actually like a lot of the new Liquid Glass apple redesign, but the expected readability issues are very much present. 💽

A smartphone screen displays the time as 11:22 and shows battery, Wi-Fi, and cellular signal icons along with some text about layout positioning in the DOM. The time and battery icons overlay the content with a very light background behind it, creating small contrast. It’s hard to read.

Last week I completed Mental Health First Aid training. Good material, and a great group and instructor. I highly recommend it to anyone who’s interested.
