Question: How hard can Daffy Duck go?
Answer: Pretty damned hard. This is a 1980s, heavy metal, HEAVY METAL delight:

…sometimes we switch it out to think of MASTER & COMMANDER.
Finally watched that new Deadpool movie. I do not care about most of the references but I'm fixated on this ship in the Fox graveyard being the HMS Surprise from MASTER AND COMMANDER. pic.twitter.com/HYAzvH25Lg

The predictable THE LEGEND OF OCHI trailer.
Is it awful that I kind of want the twist of THE LEGEND OF OCHI to be that the adult monsters really are impossible to reason with, and would have happily and deliberately eaten the girl if Willem Dafoe hadn’t shown up in time? Seriously, how many times have we seen this movie? The message as provided is not exactly subversive.
My major hope is that the trailer is a total head-fake, really. Which… maybe? A24 does like to do unexpected stuff.

I mean, sometimes you need an accident to create a thing of beauty.
Action movies, as they exist today, would not be the same without a mistake made by a special effects team in the 1960s in the samurai movie Sanjuro.

My mini-review of VENOM: THE LAST DANCE.

Alternate title: And Nothing Of Value Was Lost. I picked the first one because I don’t quite agree with the second one, but I respect that my readers will have a different opinion.

I’m picking DANGEROUS LIAISONS because some genius at Amazon has decided to remake CRUEL INTENTIONS as a series. Since We all know that movie was only a “little copy, a child’s model or a slave’s flattery” of the Glenn Close / John Malkovich / Michelle Pfeiffer masterpiece, it’s safe enough to assume that the series is going to somehow be even worse. Hell, the new series may not even be particularly lust-inducing. We don’t really do those anymore, after all.
Truly, this is an appallingly drab age.

Probably going to see VENOM: THE LAST DANCE today or tomorrow.
Still figuring out when I can see VENOM: THE LAST DANCE. The critics hate it, naturally, much like they hated the last two, too. Just as naturally, I am reassured by this. I thought they were going to be flat-out wrong before, and I turned out to be correct, at least in my particular case. I’m ready to be vindicated again.
