“You can sorta understand a censor getting upset about your reaction to a movie you very much liked, or very much did not like, right. This movie was neither, but both my review, and literally the fact that I even watched it, were tampered with, quite frankly. Not even just the public review page, bu” read more
Ironic Mysterious Censoring (of Reviews)
“—I have an emotional response to a movie about rape being covered up. —Rape? People censoring rape? You don’t want to hand in a la-di-da doesn’t matter response to something like that? Down the Memory Hole. (walks away, whistling).
It’s like…. Wow…. Surely it isn’t rape ” read more
“Wow. Talk about defending the liars, right.
—This movie is full of lies. —That’s ok. Creativity. —My review explained how I felt about being lied about. —I deleted it. —It was creative. —(dismissive hands) Rules don’t apply. —You actually deleted, not just my revi” read more

“(10 minutes) Wow, I was expecting this to be a boy movie, right—like a movie about boy books, many lols—but WOW, this is…. Phew. I mean, my premise to start watching was: maybe I went hard on “Napoleon Dynamite”, right: I watched so many “important” movies, in that time…. Mostly, I r” read more
“Everything just fits together so perfectly; it always makes me so happy.
But yeah: Chris Sanders is a middle-piss quality director, but I figured I’d give him that third movie to watch like I always do, now: and also, I have a personal history reason for watching, right. I had my broth” read more
“So, yeah: I mean, it does promise to be a better movie than “Rocky”, right, (although that is how I found it: same director; I’d hate to write somebody off after 90 minutes of exposure to them, right)—“Rocky” was some serious sucking up, right—[edit] and yeah: the title character kid, ” read more
“(Two Towers Rohan King Guy) So, it has come to this. Jo March vs Galadriel, with the Time Traveler’s Wife’s Husband guy: an epic space opera without singing, directed by ~Joe Wright~, Joe Wright. (shakes head, to facilitate thought, then continues) You have so much talent, JW: such a big, Big br” read more
“So yeah: I guess the idea is it’s a person-of-color/alien (outer space) team, which is a nice idea; it used to be, say for the first Star Wars movie (1977), that “alien” was like as close as you got to, haha, OMG…. But yeah, it’s like: hey guys, compared to Space Goblin Stitch—who does s” read more
“(Re: Tolkien, etc.)
This will probably be a lot of fun, right. Who says that we shouldn’t tell twelve-year-old white boys, and people who are twelve year old white boys at heart, that they aren’t far more important than they actually are, right?

“Wow, the library has THREE copies of this DVD: I’ll never have to push back a sitting in time because it’s checked out…. I guess Joe Wright is a pretty prestigious filmmaker. Of course, that one attempt he made to make a movie with a mixed-race cast, “Pan”, (2015), was kinda a crash and bu” read more
Alternative Propaganda (from the greatest country)
“I watched “It’s A Wonderful Life” which was like a, curious example of how things used to be for some people, and I try to eventually watch three movies by the same director, and the library had this movie too. I feel like “Arsenic and Old Lace” will be like a better movie, right—Cary Gr” read more
When Eights Don’t Hate (But Bar the Gate)
“Update: Events in my personal life have made me question whether perhaps my original title for this review, “When Eights Don’t Hate” was a little naive about the Classic American Enneagram Eight, you know—like, it’s natural, maybe, to want to let the ‘man of the people’ have his day in” read more
“I didn’t enjoy this, although I expected to. I didn’t like “Emma”, it was one of my less-liked Jane books, but I anticipated a modernization making it seem less…. Something. But, it certainly seemed…. Something. I guess if you’re Knightley/Paul Rudd you don’t really like Club Woodhou” read more
“N.B. I’m against classifying made-for-TV movies as “TV”—are there episodes? What’s going on in people’s heads that this is called “TV”?
Okay.
…………………Well, I’m on the wrong side of the Ethnic Miracle for Irish nationalism in the USA, and the wro” read more

English Mythology (Becomes London Mythology)
“First, let me just say that Jane Austen is English mythology, so, I mean, the legalists, sorry the historians, sorry the literary critics, don’t think that this is “accurate” (you don’t even want to know what angry aristocrat nerds are like—I’m telling you: you don’t), but basically: t” read more
