My 2025 music listening habits. Good to see @waterboysmusic.bsky.social in there as they were a highlight of discovery and rediscovery. I don't recall listening to U2, tho.

How about Drone? Good for the brains.

I wrote about Train Dreams for @dmovies.bsky.social. I loved it. My snotty little dig in the intro seems more justified in light of Netflix's acquisition of Warner Bros.

Keep at it. My upcoming book has a short chapter on Star Trek. The focus is TNG, Discovery, and the Kelvin Timeline films. Voyager gets overlooked I find.

I reckon I'm going to watch this tonight. It's on Tubi, so adverts, but still... it is there to be watched.

Congrats. I'm looking forward to your book on Star Trek: Voyager. Lever Press are great to work with!

up next Suicide Is Painless (Theme From MASH)

Excellent. I've just finished Twin Peaks: The Return and I'm listening to Jeff Wood's book on episode 8. Do I really need to read another Lynch book? Yes. Yes I do.

I won't reserve a seat for you, then.

I would love to live in the blissful ignorance that Mike Johnson exists in.

So cool. I'm bringing a mumblecore season my my local indie cinema next March.

Everyday.

Back in the mid-1990s I would watch and record the metal music show Noisey Mothers. Some days I'll be minding my own business and a song from the show will just randomly pop in my head. Today it was Saxon's 1995 song Dogs of War.

I hope so!

Believe it or not Easy Rider is a Thanksgiving film.

Mike, track 20 on Life, Death and Dennis Hopper might have been quite different if you'd only caught the TV edit.

Growing up in the UK, we obviously didn't do Thanksgiving, but all year round we ate British pork with mild sinister overtones.

I remember at school the day after the film was shown on TV and every kid shouting "your company built the freaky thing!"

Krang is what happens to most men who do not do core exercises.

YouTube video by Kristian Goddard Blue Velvet by David Lynch edited-for-television version

I had the pleasure of finding out this week that there was an edited for TV broadcast of Blue Velvet which replaced all of Dennis Hopper's obscenities' with the word "freak."
Might not be real, but fun anyway.

On Post-Catastrophe Film
'A fascinating account of what it means that the world may be ending in a smoky and damp whimper, not a Hollywood bang. Deft and provocative criticism that helps us see our moment!'

The paperback edition of Music and Sound in the Films of Dennis Hopper landed a few months ago. Reissue of Screen Captures comes out in the Spring, and Post-Catastrophe Film arrives in the summer.
