If you can find Pig see it. Cage does crazy like no one’s business, and I think we all know why that is...

Nice. Thank you. Forgot to watch that one. Cage's "owes the IRS and will do any weird film" era has produced some serious gems.

I watched Death Of A Unicorn earlier. Kinda has a similar vibe as The Menu. More weird and less dark. Recommended.

I watched Pig because of Cage and had the accompanying expectations. I really enjoyed the movie and it was quite different from what I was expecting. I'd totally watch it again.

Very impressive music film - all the more as the actor plays all the Chopin pieces seen/heard in the film. No small task.

Finished my 3rd time through The Wire, about to start my 3rd time through Breaking Bad.

But I will probably watch Ken Burns’ The American Revolution first.

I'm enjoying the Ken Burns doc very much. Like all of his docs, it fills in so many gaps.

if you’re interested in the details, one of the guys he has on a lot, Rick Atkinson, has written a very thorough history of the conflict. Partially, really, I think he’s working on one more book.

Just started re-watching my Sherlock Holmes DVD box set. I always liked the Granada production with Jeremy Brett as Sherlock.

The Chair Company on HBO is bizarre but entertaining. If you don't like Tim Robinson, definitely skip it.

Conan the Barbarian, or not.
I got all excited when I saw it on the listings so made a bowl of popcorn and dialed it in. How disappointed I was when I realized it's some janky remake from 2011.
Pass. Back to NYPD Blue.

Just deviated from Sherlock and watched an old favorite of mine. This would’ve been on Mystery Science Theater 3000, but I still dig it.

Anyone else think the secret weapon looks like three AA batteries in a lady’s compact?

That had a young Jason Mamoa as Conan, iirc. Not good, but kind of an interesting artifact.

You're totally right, that's who that dude was. I recognized him, but as soon as I realized it wasn't the real deal, I flicked it off.
NYPD Blue was on season one at that time, much more interesting than watching a fake Arnold.

Liked Deliver Me From Nowhere.

Started watching Talamasca. I've been a huge fan of Anne Rice and her Vampire Chronicles book series ever since I was a teenager. Interview wIth a Vampire series was also done SOOOOO much better than the cheesy Cruise/Pitt movie that was made so long ago. I am really enjoying how they are creating her vision into the new shows on AMC.

RIP Udo Kier!

Bummer, he was great.

 

[TOOL460002]

Fatman was great. Probably should've saved it for next month but was looking for something weird and didn't want to pay for Violent Night (forgot to see that one).

 

[friskinator]

Watched the Lilith Fair doc on Hulu last night. Another great snapshot of a time in music that isn't coming back. Sarah McLachlan was the Perry Ferrell of Lilith, but not an eccentric, unpredictable weirdo like PF.

It took him half a season to feature someone hiding food in their clothing to eat clandestinely but he brought us there with the last one. Only a matter of time. It's dumber than it is coherent but a fun show. The guy that was (presumably) killed via top hat may be one of my favorite moments thus far. So stupid.

Yeah, that's definitely something he's obsessed with. Agreed that there wasn't a coherent narrative, but it's hard to expect that in Tim Robinson world. I've wondered how much of his stuff is improv or very loosely written, since it often sounds like some of the dialog is being made up as they go along.

Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein. A visually impressive take on the Mary Shelly story that had to be rewritten to satisfy Del Toro's ego. In all, it was OK but overly long.
