2026 Movies and TV Shows

So that was YOU! Ha ha...I need to do a better job of updating my account there. Cool that you're a Giallo fan - it's a genre I've only gotten into the last few years. Stray Cat Film Center ( my home away from home, it seems like ) has that Giallo-ary series every winter. If you're at the first one, you get a little punch-card. If you get all 4 or 5 punches, you win a prize & are entered to win a bigger prize. Here's the one from this year, with the little zine they gave away as well :

My Tuesday special showing at the Cinema was "Billie Ellish The Tour Live In 3D". The systems were down so I was given a sit anywhere ticket. I decided to sit in E19. I also received a free soda with my complimentary popcorn because their system was down. The show was pretty neat. It was a combination of concert footage and backstage interviews. I heard most of Billie's soft songs already, on The SXM Coffeehouse. These would be the real releases not acoustic covers that Taylor Swift does on the channel. But I got a chance to hear her hard stuff. My favorite songs are "My Future" which was only played as instrumental while Billie was putting on makeup. And "Birds of A Feather" which was her last song in the movie. Her fans go nuts for her (mostly young females). But she has quite a following. Which surprised me that I was the only person watching the movie today. She also feels very comfortable wearing casual clothes when she performs. She wears a lot of sports jerseys and hats when she is on stage. No fancy outfits or legs. And I saw she can play acoustic guitar, electric guitar and the keyboards.

I also got a pair of 3D glasses, the last time I got a pair was at the Avatar movie last year. Which Is nice because I had just broken a new pair of UVA/UVB sunglasses so now I have these. In in all, I had another great time at the Cinema.

My son and I watched the OJ documentary on Netflix. They did a good job at covering it from all angles. It was pretty entertaining. A good watch and I would recommend. My son could not believe some of what happened.

Saw #23 & 24 this week on back-to-back nights. Seeing "Mandalorian" tomorrow, so I went ahead & added it now. "Girl On The Broomstick" was a hoot - I wish there was a good Blu-Ray release of it. Here's a short scene to give a taste of its goofiness :

 
Last Sunday, we saw "In The Grey". It was interesting, then boring, then interesting, then boring and ended interesting. It had Jake G and Eiza Gonzalez who I had seen previously in Hulu's "Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice".

Today after Bratfest, we saw "I Love Boosters" with Demi Moore and Eiza Gonzalez again. Two Eiza Gonzalez movies in one week. It was very bizarre and confusing but really enjoyable. A little like "The Phoenician Scheme" except this time the humor was successful.

Next I want to see "Obsession" and "Passengers", then on Wolf's Blockbuster List "Supergirl"
I also saw posters for interesting upcoming movies too:
"Verity" with Anne Hathoway and Dakota Johnson
"Wild Horse Nine" with Parker Posey

Our theater still looks as nice as did when it opened in 2015.
 
Alert the media or something… I took a break from movie watching for the second time this year to watch a series.
A few months ago, Stranger Things, of course.
Then this weekend, I watched the series Chernobyl (2019). That was excellent in every way.
 
Thanks great Aaron!

I saw a movie a today. It felt like a Monday but it was Tuesday. And the weather was too nice to go to a movie but I wanted to see it. My $6 movie was "Obsession". It was another good one. It was spooky!
Unfortunately, the pretty girl had to be the monster. I am not use to that. Inde Navarette played Nikki, the girl obsessed with Bear under his spell.

Good free popcorn as usual.

We are watching Margo's Got Money Troubles. Very entertaining, with an all-star cast. Also, if you like seeing Elle Fanning naked for half of each episode, this is the series for you.

I watched 2 or 3 eps so far and her boobs have been the most entertaining part of the show so far. I doubt I'll see the season through.
