John Cameron Mitchell rocked the venue tonight with both his thoughtful responses in a short Q&A session and performing multiple songs. Hedwig and The Angry Inch still delivers twenty five years later.

Excited to see Hedwig and the Angry Inch at Revolution Hall tonight. It is a 4K screening of the film followed by a special mini acoustic performance by Mitchell. Also, it has been quarter of a century since I’ve seen it first at a movie theater. I’m going to sit with that for a minute.

Queued up The Ghost in the Shell (2026 TV series) and it is unwatchable. Cartoony, in a cheap way. The opening scene of episode one looks like a silly parody of the original movie. I was excited about it but it is a rough ride and a definite miss. Motoko Kusanagi didn’t deserve this.

Nolan’s The Odyssey is what happens when one imbues Odysseus with conscience and ability to reflect. I didn’t expect to feel so much watching a story unfold that I’ve read a dozen times in multiple languages and yet, I walked away from it changed for the better.

My favorite take by John Gruber on the subject of Maps advertisements: The easiest way to keep scammy and predatory ads out of Apple Maps would be, you know, not to sell ads in Apple Maps.

Luca Guadagnino’s Suspiria is even better the second and third time. It is a film full of small but significant details hidden in the shadows, subway signs, book titles, graffiti, restaurant windows and more. One thing that was mind blowing is how much of the story is revealed in casual chatter.

Ari Aster's 171-minute Director's Cut of Midsommar (2019) was such a treat on Saturday. It is darker, bleaker, delving deeper into Dani and Christian’s relationship troubles and lingering on rituals and symbols.

I love the subtle musical reference to Cowboy Bebop in S4:E5 of Legend of Vox Machina. The percussion in the heist theme is nearly identical to Tank!, Cowboy Bebop opening theme.
