Disney's Aladdin is weird when you realize this entire story is told by a guy trying to sell you a lamp. And that either he's lying and this is a regular lamp, or he just told you the story of how this lamp contains a malevolent genie inside it. He's not a great salesman

Still very unsure how I feel about a running man remake, but it seems to be sticking to the novel more, and Edgar Wright directing and co-writing, I'm willing to give it more of a chance that some of the other remakes of 80s action flicks, which have by and large been terrible.

Portrait of Thomas Jefferson
Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he began what many in 2025 STILL consider a romantic tryst or loving affair with Sally Hemings.
Ms. Hemings had no legal capacity to consent to such a relationship not only because she was enslaved, Jefferson's property,
BUT ALSO BECAUSE SHE WAS 14-YEARS-OLD. /1

There was a line in an article I read about how "rock the casbah" somehow became really popular with far right conservatives, and boy, I have some bad news for them about the guy who wrote the lyrics to that song, and the message of the song itself
It's actually good news but they won't like it

Peter was one of the first comic writers who made me see that you could have nuanced, emotional stories, and still have room for humor, and it was about balancing the two. He was the first comic writer I would follow from book to book, and if i saw his name on something, to this day, I'd buy it

I think a lot of it is the stuff like deckbuilding that I had several friends tell me was the main reason they didn't even try it, which i get, I usually don't care for deckbuilding, but I gave this a shot and loved it. Wish they would make more like this but I guess that's unlikely

A side note to all of the Springsteen stuff:
It's been my understanding since about 1985 that Bruce doesn't like being called "The Boss" but he's pretty much given up on telling people not to do it and "come to terms with being stuck with it"
So I don't call him that, because basic respect

Btw, Bruce Springsteen is what a guy who comes from nothing and becames a billionaire through hard work and talent looks like. The thing that is most conservatives wet dream. But he said a mean about their cult leader, so

At least one of the trailers I saw before I saw it gave that away. Though some trailers for another "stealth vampire" flick, from disk till dawn, also spoiled that, but i hasn't seen any of those when I saw that in a theatre, so I was genuinely surprised. But I would prefer less trailer spoilers

#Sinners was in fact the best vampire movie I've seen this decade, and it's not even a close race. Probably won't win major oscars, but that's because the academy doesn't tend to like genre films. It deserves the awards though
