So last week, which ended with one of the let’s call it boomier of US holidays, we indulged in our annual tradition of finding something noisy to watch so that Lulu (and, to a much lesser extent, Bean) wouldn’t notice and/or be disturbed by all the popping and whooshing and whizzing and banging going on outside. This year, the selection was Captain American: Brave New World, AKA the one with the Red Hulk1:

Not A Review Of “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice”
So this week we (meaning I) watched Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which, as you may have guessed from the name, is the sequel to Beetlejuice. Presumably in another 30 years or so there will be a threequel called Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and then we’ll really be in for it.
Not A Not A Review Of “Paris, Texas”
So if you’ve been around here for a while, you might have seen that “Myth” by Beach House is one of my favorite songs.
What you may not be aware of is that, for some reason, people seem to like to take Beach House songs and make their own music videos out of them, including one that sets the song to scenes from the 1984 film Paris, Texas. (Normally I would embed the music video, but since playback is disabled on other sites, you can click here to view it on YouTube instead.)

Why Are You Wearing That Stupid Man Suit?
It’s been a while since I did a “Not A Review” post, mainly because we’ve mostly been watching things my wife actually wants to see. (Even those put her to sleep sometimes, of course, and then I might throw on an episode of Umbrella Academy or whatever; but since at that point my wife is already asleep I can’t really say how long it took to put her to sleep, now, can I?)

So the other day, I happened to catch the trailer for the upcoming film Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. Whaddya think? Does it look like something I would watch?
Who Was That Fast Man?
So recently I was watching The Flash, the standalone film about the DCU’s resident speedster:
Cause & Effect
March is Brain Injury Awareness Month, and we’ve started it off with another celebrity death due to a ruptured cerebral aneurysm ― arguably even higher profile than Grant Imahara’s sudden death in 2020, at least for those who never watched Battlebots or Mythbusters. I’m referring of course to Tom Sizemore, who was hospitalized on February 18th, 2023, and apparently never regained consciousness before passing away on March 3rd, 2023.

Note: This post contains three GIFs that may take a minute to load.
Not long ago we watched Somebody I Used To Know, an Amazon Prime film in which Alison Brie’s cat, Harry, attempts to extricate himself from various situations in which he is the recipient of unwanted attention. Oh and also some kind of human romantic comedy-drama type stuff happens I guess.
Not a Review of the Trailer for “Blonde”
So if you’ve got Netflix, you no doubt have seen, at some point in the last several months, the trailer for Blonde, a film based on the Joyce Carol Oates novel of the same name. We saw it too.
The film, of course, stars Ana de Armas as Marilyn. Now, I did like Ana de Armas in Knives Out, and No Time to Die would’ve been a better movie if it had just ditched Bond and followed her character of Paloma instead:
However, my wife had some very immediate thoughts on the matter of casting.
