It was once called a fairytale for millenials. It is a 21 st Century fairytale for everyone.

There was a James Bond in my class in high school. He was an asshole.

Thereās a guy I follow on that thar YouTube called the Feral Historian.
He wanders out into the Wilderness and natters about some sci-fi series or book or game, usually with some interesting observations.
Heās quite anti-authoritarian, but also seems to hold some views somewhat to the right of my own. Doesnāt stop me enjoying his content though.
If you fancy a gander, find him over here:
To be honest, I wouldnāt be surprised if some of youse lot are already familiar with his work and maybe even know him?

Should we revive a specific John Oliver thread?
Sad that this will only be accessible to a wider audience on Thursday.
Oh itās already up!

Iām subscribed, though Iāve only watched about a half dozen or so of his videos so far. His meandering discussions are interesting though, and a good length.

Billy Zaneās Brando is uncanny.

It should be āTangoing with Brando.ā

Based on this, I give kudos to his makeup people, but the voice really isnāt there and he seems too energetic. Billy Zane is probably about the right age for Brando in this period, but I bet heās kept himself in better shape and it shows.

Itās based on the memoir written by the architect Bernard Judge. I donāt know why he titled it that, but the movie is clearly based on that memoir.

I seem to be channeling my inner Halloween viewer tonightā¦
Which, granted, is a little milquetoast as far as scare factor goes.
Comedies befitting the times, with just that tinge of scare factorā¦

Okay, this is more about me asking questions than about what Iām watching (Rifftrax, btw, with Matthew J. Elliott and Ian Potter, love those Brits!):
Of all of the 20th century movies/tv shows about the earth and society having reached a dystopian future, which do you think is the closest to whatās going on now? And out of all that youāve seen, which one is your favorite, regardless of whether or not itās closer to actual life? Or cheesy or not, LOL!
For me, itās āMetropolisā (1927) that is the closest to what weāre approaching. But my favoriteā¦I dunno, WALL-E was goodā¦itās a 3-way tie between that and āSoylent Greenā (1973) and āLoganās Runā (1976).

If Iām not working, Iām mostly on the couch, under a blanket, watching ST: Voyager this week.
I did branch out to watch national treasure Taylor Thomlinsonās after-election episode of After Midnight yesterday, though. Nothing can really make me feel better about all this shit right now. And it obviously isnāt funny. But raging, crying, and even laughing a bit with four talented comedians really hit the spot for a moment. Here are the first two clips:
