Foster Cat Nyx

We’ve had our fourth foster cat for 3 months now, so it’s time to write out her journey to us.  “Nyx” is from a Georgia shelter, and at the time was extremely pregnant, ready to have her litter of kittens at any time.  We made a deal with the shelter that we’d meet them half way from our city and theirs, which the journey ended up being about an hour journey each way.  She was gregarious and friendly the entire trip home, and was adorably affectionate when we moved her into the foster room.  About 24 hours later though, she...

Stranger Things Season 5 (?)

Stranger Things: Created by Matt Duffer, Ross Duffer. With Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown. When a young boy disappears, his mother, a police chief and his friends must confront terrifying supernatural forces in order to get him back. See that question mark? Did I just watch season 5 or was this 4.5, or was it 5.5? Netflix hasn’t split seasons up like this in the past, so it’s super confusing to know what you’re watching, numerically. Add to that, the ending of this 4 episode season was completely unfulfilling and felt more like an ellipse than...

Mars Attacks!

Mars Attacks!: Directed by Tim Burton. With Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, Annette Bening, Pierce Brosnan. Earth is invaded by Martians with unbeatable weapons and a cruel sense of humor. Sometimes Tim Burton can be just too much, but just this once he was exactly spot on with how weird he could be. Buy On Amazon!

Muppets Most Wanted

Muppets Most Wanted: Directed by James Bobin. With Ricky Gervais, Ty Burrell, Tina Fey, Steve Whitmire. While on a grand world tour, The Muppets find themselves wrapped into an European jewel-heist caper headed by a Kermit the Frog look-alike and his dastardly sidekick. I had forgotten how super catchy the music in “Most Wanted” is, and I’m not sure we’ll ever see Ricky Gervais in another Disney film, but it sure was nice to see him in his less traumatic days. …was this the last time we saw the Muppets? I guess there was that “Haunt Mansion” film last year,...

The Princess

The Princess: Directed by Le-Van Kiet. With Joey King, Olga Kurylenko, Antoni Davidov, Radoslav Parvanov. When a strong-willed princess refuses to wed the cruel sociopath, she is kidnapped and locked in a remote tower of her father’s castle. With her vindictive suitor intent on taking her father’s throne, the princess must save the kingdom. High octane tower descent style action movie with minimal plot and a kick ass heroine? Ok, sign me up! The end result is a little overcranked in the action department for my tastes, but it wears it’s intentions on it’s sleeve and does exactly what it...

Charli XCX: Alone Together

Charli XCX: Alone Together: Directed by Bradley Bell, Pablo Jones-Soler. With Charli XCX, Huck Kwong, Twiggy Rowley, Sam Pringle. Global pop star Charli XCX enlists fans to help her produce the album how i’m feeling now while quarantined during the COVID-19 pandemic. A relatively intimate look into the creative process behind Charli XCX’s “How I’m Feeling Now” album. It was made during the initial lockdowns of the corona virus crisis. It’s good, Charli is good, her music is good, and I just wish it had a little more of her actual personality in it instead of the filtered version that...

Baymax!

Baymax!: Created by Don Hall. With Scott Adsit, Ryan Potter, Dichen Lachman, Sarah-Nicole Robles. The characters in the unique city of Big Hero 6 get their own series, packed with adventures. You know those shorts that Pixar does before every Pixar film? The ones that usually make you cry like a big dumb baby, but it’s ok because everyone in the theater is doing the same dumb thing? Well this is a series of sorta unrelated shorts starring Baymax that do the same thing. It’s not Baymax in his Iron Man-esque armor, but Baymax the automated health professional, who goes...

Cats, Cats, Tomatoe Babies, A broken Eaglemoss Spaceship, Coconut Curry Bowls, and more caaaaats

Foster cat named Rigel, he’s a mirror image of his mother. Foster cat named Betelgeuse.  Note that he’s cuddling with one of the foster fails from last year, the only thing they have in common is that they’re both grey, so it’s interesting that they’re getting along so well. Nyx and Rigel, that midnight black fur gene is super strong. Not my cat, but she’s friendly enough when I run into her outside.  I have named her Tabby. I’m growing tomatoes!   Eaglemoss strikes again, one of my final ships and it arrived broken because they mailed it to me...

Eddie Izzard: Wunderbar

Eddie Izzard: Wunderbar: Directed by Sarah Townsend. With Eddie Izzard. Filmed during Eddie’s 2019 tour, Wunderbar exemplifies Eddie’s unique, surreal view of life, love, history and her ‘theory of the universe’. A wonderfully low budget but funny comedy set, I believe this is the first one that I’ve seen from Eddie since the decision to go full on transgender and not just executive transvestite.
