ARGH! I'm so impatient! I love it, and want to show it to y'all, even though PRECIOUS FEW of you will read it. Whatever. We're growing, and that's encouraging...
🎶The waiting is the hardest part🎶
Submitted this #AHouseofDynamite #MediumStory to #Cinemania, & Gaby told me after 5th email to note some new minor correction that I should chill tf out, so now I'm JUST waiting (and still making minor changes).
I'm the worst, lol. I think the work benefits, tho!
I like taking photos almost as much as painting. I often do photo projects and challenges. I'm in a 52 week challenge on Medium.

Title of my next article (whether Counter Arts publishes it or not): "Was I WRONG about the MCU being Gray Goo??" with the subtitle, "No, OBVIOUSLY not | The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Movie Review" So I always, always include emoji either in the title or, more often, subtitle (never both). Idk why. It's a weird, little stylistic quirk, but it's something I check off a list, mentally (what's my emoji here?), and that emoji was removed by an editor (probably Reece Beckett, or maybe that pederast Hanrahan) (that's a Fletch reference, lol, not anything weird), so... That's a good sign, right? If they were passing, they'd just say no, I reckon, and not, like... make edits, right? Also, who was editing on a Saturday night/Sunday morning? Those are K. Cook & Cats, Co. hours lol.
I think our #KCookandCatsCo #FantasticFour #FirstSteps #MovieReview is nearly out?
An editor to the publication we submitted it to ( #CounterArts; go follow them: medium.com/counterarts) removed an #emoji from the subtitle of #MediumStory, which seems like a good sign, right? 🤔

I come from a jazz and prog-rock background, studied music theory in high school and college (I studied a lot of things in college; I spent eight-and-a-half years there), and I’m more-than-well-aware that I have a propensity to be snooty and stuck-up about musical sensibilities and instrumental proficiency. I sorta thought Country Music — like Christian Music — is somewhere you go when you don’t have any real talent or musical acumen, in order to appeal to and capitalize on the legion of tasteless idiots who will slop up anything out of a trough with an American Flag slapped on it. [If we did any of that AI bullshit, this is where I’d put a kinda-fun image some LLM made me of a pig wearing a MAGA hat slurping out of a trough Toby Keith is pissing into, but it would actually be sad, not fun, and would cost us, like, forty redwood trees, so instead I just wrote you a snarky note; go do something good for the planet or art]

No we’re 100% #FuckAI at #KCookandCatsCo. This is from Kay’s #TobyKeith #MediumStory: kcookandcatsco.medium.com/storytimewit...
Title of the ReelRank.net review: Actually Kinda Liked It! (Of Colombiana) Given that this was Olivier Megaton (what a name), I was, like, how could this be good? Happy to be wrong! Firstly, Zoe Saldaña (Academy-Award-Winner Zoe Saldaña, though she won her best-supporting award for her heroic, failed effort to elevate dogshit, dog-whistle, false-flag 🏳️⚧️ film Emilia Pérez) is an absolute treasure, we adore her work, and it's always nice to see her in anything, and this is quite a bit of her doing stuff she looks great doing, is giving a committed, gritty performance doing, it's all great. This is by no means, like, life-changing cinema. To get our ReelRank rating, we generally just multiply our Letterbox'd rating by 2, and we feel like this is a 3-star/6.0 type film, and we liked it. A good showcase for a lot of what Zoe Saldaña can do and do well (she's a SMOKESHOW, and also totally plausible and believable as the assassin super-killer she is in the movie). The 'personal blog' button here links to our BlueSky thread, where we spend a few bleets (BlueSky tweets are called bleets! Pass it on!) marveling at the performance of Young Catelaya (Amandla Stenberg, in her first feature-film role; she's INCREDIBLE in this, it's worth seeing for her performance, alone) and falling in love with Zoe Saldaña's Cataleya (which should happen in most movies; if you're not falling in love with someone, either you or the movie has fucked up, I feel). It's great! Go read it and follow us on BlueSky... right after you mark this Fair 😉🐈🐈🐈⬛🐈⬛
Many times, we review a #movie on #BlueSky that doesn't merit a #MediumStory, so it then usually just goes to #Letterboxd... and @reelrank.bsky.social!!
It's a smaller platform (natch), but one with a really-cool vision/mission! 🤓🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈

589 claps by 20 people… one of whom is Zulie @ Medium, my personal favorite of the staff, not counting Medium CEO Tony Stubblebine, who I’m also trying to get to notice me 😅
The article in question. Linked in the bleet — go read it! 🤓
I somehow suckered my favorite #Medium employee/staff into reading and clapping a #MediumStory of mine 😆
Y’all should read it, too!
I vote we stop calling them #skeets and start calling them #bleets, so I can, like, tell my family I’m bleeting about them

This Medium graph shows Views versus Reads, where Views is someone landing on an article of mine, and Reads is getting to the end of the article. If I'm reading this right, and I'd like to think that I am, that means that by-and-large, most people that START a K Cook and Cats Co story finish it. I just need more people to start them, lol.
Huh! This #Medium #graph is v interesting 🤔
The raw numbers I don't want or need you to know (I'll brag once they're good), but this graph suggests that, if you find your way to a #KCookandCatsCo #MediumStory, you'll prob finish it.
I just need more people to start! 🤓

Nobody panic about our banner image — it’s the closing title card of #TommyBoy, and it’s going to make for a cute embed when I put the link to our #BlueSky in the #MediumStory in a few minutes 🤓🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛
Our ReelRank Tommy Boy review: This is an all-time comedy-classic film. We get WAY into it on the BlueSky thread (go follow us on BlueSky!), but the upshot is, this is a template for how to do comedy, and for what makes comedies work. The drama, the characters, the conflict, the tension - all of it is real. If you pulled all of the jokes from this film, it would still work as a heartfelt family-business drama, and small-business, buddy-based road-trip film. It's, in many ways, all things to all men, and if you've never seen it, you must, and if you haven't seen it recently, you must. The cats & I insist!
We're working on our #MediumStory right now, but we already posted our review of #TommyBoy over on @reelrank.bsky.social. If you're not on #ReelRank, what's up?! We love RR, & we write all-new content for every #moviereview we post on there 🤓🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛

Richard Hayden has just pulled the driver's side door clear off of his Chavelle, and Tommy, despite knowing exactly what happened, says, "What'd you do??"
There are two HILARIOUS reaction shots of first, Tommy, then Richard, and then HILARIOUSLY, heightening it ad absurdum, we have a reaction shot of the 'Deer' (it looks like Triumph, the Insult Comic Deer, a little bit, lol; those dead, lifeless eyes), and I AM SCREAMING, it is CRACKING me UP
Neither Farley nor Spade really sells the crying here, but it's good comedic crying, and it totally totally works. They're heartbroken about this poor, furry thing (though they needn't be, lol), and they burst into tears, because they're both adolescent boys who wish their fathers were here.
I had to cool it or we were never gonna make it through this #movie & to the #MediumStory, which is the ultimate form of & destination for what we think, but I'm still screen📸ing #iconic moments for our review
"I want to jerk the wheel into a GODDAMNED BRIDGE ABUTMENT!" THE line

No one likes to admit they made a mistake. I was almost too embarrassed to write about it, but some lessons are worth sharing.
