Nothing like finally getting around to reading it after finishing my psychology degree and realizing it's mainly Harry and Dumbledore constructing a psych profile of Voldemort.
Father Damien Karras in The Exorcist, played by Jason Miller.
Father Damien Karras from The Exorcist is one of those exceptional characters for me, a fundamentally decent human who'd give his life to save just about anybody else's, yet nevertheless he's trapped in his own completely unearned prison of self-loathing. Just a haunted performance by Jason Miller.

Who knows who'll see this but this is the kind of thing I love musing on.
The way I found myself honestly kind of rooting for her, riiiiight up until her scene with Bix and I remembered oh right, she's by no means one of the good guys.
It was one of my go-to reads in high school and I read it again about a year back. It's occasionally insightful, mostly navel-gaze-y, semi-frequently punctuated by the realization he has/had huge hang-ups about women.
Buddy and I splitting a *very* potent edible and catching Mandy when it came through Ottawa on a single theatre, two-nights-only showing back in 2018. The effects hit just as this scene occurred. Magical.
The black hole VFX in Interstellar helped astrophysicists construct more accurate models of them!
A horror movie that tricks you into thinking it's a war movie for half of its runtime.
It occurs to me only now that people reading this might think I'm talking about Olivia Nuzzi, but no, my friend really would get down with Scorsese if she could.
Jim Belushi and his magnificent pompadour next to James Caan in Michael Mann's Thief.

Woman would fuck current day Marty Scorsese if she could, bless her heart.
My 32-year-old friend finds even his current self attractive.
Oh boy oh boy oh boy, you are in for a wild treat.
Lewis Pullman absolutely stealing that movie out from under everyone else.
Damn one of their training videos is already online.
The first act alone is so fleshed out in the DC you're left boggling at how much was cut out for theatrical release. Really one of those "completely different movie" alternate cuts.
I wonder if they had to change things up because of COVID restrictions? The Wanda vs. Agatha fight is very obviously the two of them filmed separately in front of green screens/the Volume, and it's bereft of the craft that clearly went into every other element of that show.
It had calming Windows XP desktop background vibes.
Hello yes I got stoned a little earlier this evening and read this skeet very seriously so thank you for the temporarily increased heart rate.

"Jimmy, we need to get a wire up on Hassan Nasrallah."
Lucky. I'm doing survey callouts at a call centre right now and they have signage in each cubicle actively discouraging us from talking to our coworkers.
The Wire is the only piece of American media Hezbollah has consumed.

Panel 1: Frank Castle holds Nicky Cavella at gunpoint in the woods. Nicky: "You're just gonna shoot me? I thought..." Frank: "Low in the stomach." Panel 2: close in on Frank and Cavella. Frank: "Your guts'll fill up with shit. You'll die of blood poisoning, maybe take a couple of nights to do it. No one'll hear you, way out here." Panel 3: Close-up on Frank's glaring face. Punisher: "You made it personal, Cavella." Panel 4: Close-up on Nicky's terrified expression. Frank (off-panel): "But all that buys you is a little more pain than most."
God this is so good.
God, this may be the best Punisher MAX storyarc.
