What does that even mean?
What’s the most underrated movie you’ve ever watched? It’s hard to answer this question because what constitutes “underrated”? There are some movies that I love with my whole heart that have a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score and others with really good scores that are just meh. “Joe Dirt” is a movie with a single digit… →

Equally Compelling and Horrifying
On Friday, I started reading this book: I got maybe 50 or 60 pages in before I went to bed. There’s almost 500 pages in the whole book. I remember posting about it on Threads and saying I would have to pace myself because of how horrifying it was. That was Friday. I read this… →

Movies That Motivate

Not a Bad Adaptation
Talk About it Tuesday And since I didn’t talk about it on Music/movie Monday, I’m going to use today to rave about the movie “Project Hail Mary”. Josh and I went to the matinee on Sunday. We were in a theater that boasted a Dolby sound system. I thought theaters always had that, but apparently… →
