What moment in that gradual decay
Does resurrection choose? What year?
Who has the stopwatch? Who rewinds the tape?
Are some less lucky, or do all escape?

Truly we are in the reboot era! It’s been exactly 60 years since A Hard Day’s Night launched the OG Beatles Cinematic Universe, and now Phase 2 has been announced.

I hope that Phase 3 includes a documentary about Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Not the album. The band

@SarahAJCleary The Wicker Man? it’s not explicitly metal, but spiritually it seems very linked to me.
Good to see Decline 2 on your list. That film is a real trip 😄

"A very great artist, and one of the most beautiful men I ever saw on the screen. He was also a great director. In the last analysis, no one came near him."

@doowcin With me? ☺️

[Matroskat Ffvances @knfrances]

@SarahAJCleary Yeah, some films are inevitable to watch! I will approach with caution 😄

[Matroskat Ffvances @knfrances]

@SarahAJCleary Damn. I’ve been saving this one up for years. We have so much crossover taste though that now I fear my film rationing has been in vain

[Matroskat Ffvances @knfrances]

@SarahAJCleary I’ve always liked this one! And I’m bummed out that the version on Spotify is an abridged one
