inchoatewordsMovies: Wake Up Dead Man, the new Knives Out movie. I liked it quite a bit, but I think that it didn't use a lot of the supporting cast as much as some of the previous films.
Television/Streaming
Farscape:
"Won't Get Fooled Again" - where John is experiencing all sorts of delusions after being captured by a Scarran on the commerce planet. Despite the serious of the ground situation, which we only discover later, there are some funny bits in here, as the characters are not their "regular" selves.
"The Locket" - where Aeryn is technically only gone for one day, but has lived over 150 cycles on a different planet, and Crichton follows her back there. This was a really good episode, had some touching moments without being over the top.
"The Ugly Truth" - where the crew meet with Crais on board Talyn but then the ship shoots at a Plokavian ship, and the whole crew gets interrogated, and we see the different versions of the story everyone tells. Much like the Japanese film Rashomon.
"A Clockwork Nebari" - where some of Chiana's people find her and are determined to take her back to her planet for "cleansing." Meanwhile, the whole crew gets brainwashed, too. The eye thing was a little too much for me; I had to look away.
"Liars, Guns and Money - A Not So Simple Plan" and "With Friends Like These" - two episodes of a three part series, where the crew hatches a plan to rescue Jothee, D'Argo's son.
Buffy:
"Passion" - where Angel is still actively stalking Buffy. And Jenny (Ms. Calendar) dies.
"Killed by Death" - where Buffy goes to the hospital after developing a high fever and ends up rescuing a bunch of sick kids from Death.
"I Only Have Eyes for You" - where two tortured souls are haunting the Sunnydale campus. You really can tell the time period here, because Buffy hates the young male student for killing the female teacher when their "relationship" ended, while conveniently ignoring the fact that the woman was a predator.
"Go Fish" - where the swim team starts growing into freaky amphibious creatures.
And by this point, I am so very tired of all the ableist digs Angel keeps making toward Spike in his wheelchair. I know he's supposed to be a dick, to EVERYONE, pretty much, but come on, man, not cool.
Reading:
Finished Daisy Jones & The Six and loved it. Want to check out the series to see how it holds up.
For book club, we read All Systems Red by Martha Wells, the first Murderbot Diaries book. I enjoyed it, and Murderbot is an interesting and sometimes very relatable character. I want to check out the next book in the series.
