Week 3 of half marathon training goes well! I’m up to 4 days a week of 30 minute strength workouts. Running 7 days a week for at least 45 minutes, making sure to at least go 3.1 miles. It won’t be a fast time right now but I think I could at least complete a half marathon.
The Incredible Hulk (2008) still remains the most underrated MCU movie to me. Also shot at the time when Marvel was hungry and experimental, Disney hadn’t formulized it, just an actual movie. I really miss when being The Hulk was a curse for Banner.
“Papa Satán, Papa Satán, aleppy”
Plutus clucked and stuttered in his rage;
And my all-knowing Guide, to comfort me:
“Do not be startled, for no power of his,
however he may lord it over the damned,
may hinder your descent through this abyss.”
Neil Gaiman hiring the same lawyer as Danny Masterson and Prince Andrew sets a certain tone. His statement being the same rhetoric as every abuser pretty much removed any shadow of doubt in me.
"You will give the people of Earth an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you, they will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun, Kal. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders."
The Leftovers first season still hits like a truck. One of the few adaptations of a book that I think is better than the source material. It only gets better from here and even an episode a week is a lot. One of the top three shows HBO ever greenlit.
I am always impressed and enjoy the first Iron Man. I wish this level of care, storytelling, and love of film had stayed with the team. Watching this in the theater you just knew, for good or ill, this was a movie that was going to change things.
James Wan makes scary movies for people who like haunted house. They aren’t to the bone scary, they are more just fun houses like a ride or video game. I may not be the biggest fan of his work but I respect the game.
The housing market makes me think that I would live in one of these houses in horror movies. Giant house for almost nothing and I just got a really annoying roommate? I’ve dealt with worse, plus my chances of dying arent really that different, plus I get to be a home owner!
Four episodes into Fringe and so far the best way to watch it is to just let it wash over you. I know it eventually gets away from the comparison but right now it’s just a good X-File like with John Noble carrying the shows momentum. It’s trying to find itself it feels like.
Sometimes the payoff is just suddenly noticing how a short sleeve shirt stretches around my bicep. Seeing muscle definition even though im not flexing, I never had that before.
