#MiniReview #Movies Dune: Part 2 (2024) is a faithful continuation of the first movie. A lot of spectacular and pointless fighting and too little but tense intrigue. Overall a good spectacle way showier than the books.
Awaiting the hopefully last movie in the series. Much like Star Wars, this franchise has the potential to bog down with each subsequent release.

Watching Mean Girls (2004) at the request of my kid for Sushi Movie Night we have every other Friday, Iβm being reminded of this seamless cut of the end of Mean Girls immediately followed by the beginning of Hackers (1995) as both share Orbitalβs song Halcyon On and On (1993) on their soundtrack. And it never fails to make me chuckle.

TROM II: 1. Humans
What does Romania, Russia, Latvia, Germany, and the United States have in common? A planet, and the human imagination. We imagine borders, nationalities, and differences. In truth we are all very much the same. We grow up in a culture, we watch the same TV, listen to the same music, follow similar traditions. We are "educated" and "trained" by institutions that are rarely questioned by the masses.
So how does a newborn human become someone in this culture of humans? And how does the human-invented world contrast with the vast universe we are part of?
Today, September 18, Klaatu delivers his message of absolute peace to a group of Earth's leaders, informing them that if the planet cannot contain its violent tendencies, it will be incinerated for the safety of the rest of the universe (The Day the Earth Stood Still, 1951)

Iβve never given much credit to professional film critics. Iβve found them either on a cultural level way beyond my reach, or mere indiscriminate fans of the medium itself and its associated fame and glamour without anything much deeper to contribute.
However, after watching Empire Records (1995) on my partner suggestion and having some sprouting thoughts about it, I looked for a more established opinion about why this box-office flop became a cult classic.
And I found this excellent article by jason Bailey that articulates some of the same burgeoning ideas I had better that I ever could while still remaining accessible for neophytes like me. Definitely a βwowβ moment, and not just because a stranger agrees with me.
The Quick Failure and Unexpected Comeback of βEmpire Recordsβ
In September of 1995, a teen-geared comedy called Empire Records opened quietly in only 87 theaters. It was greeted by hostile reviews and meager box office, grossing barely a quarter of a million dollars before its theatrical run came to a halt twoβ¦Jason Bailey (Flavorwire)
