- Homura is always right
- The cycle of magical girls turning to witches which causes hardships and begets more reasons for girls to make a contract begetting more witches. Damn they thought of everything.
Four Lions
With no English subtitles available, this felt nearly incomprehensible to me. It was recommended by a coworker after he saw that I was planning to watch The Sound of Metal.
Ultimately, hilarious. Riz Ahmed and Kayvan Novak have this incredible comedic energy together and the dialogue and timing had me yelp-laughing. Maybe because it’s British or something but it does not hold back on what I feel like would now be considered taboo or in bad taste.
...Midsommar
Another Ari Aster movie that fell short of personal expectations.
Watched with very much a friend, ate a salmon, asparagus and mashed potato salad she made which was delicious.
I was told I’d really enjoy this movie and I think I gotta stop letting people say that to me. Maybe it’s bc I felt pretty sleepy with the first half of the movie and the cult’s rituals, all scenes of the white linen clothing and sunny meadows fading into one another. It did hold my interest but mostly purely out of curiosity rather than feeling really invested. Like oooh how’s he gonna make this whacky and weird? The acting and the set was mad impressive though.
...Getting injured is interesting because I know I can get obsessive with health stuff and now I have this extra little thing to direct my attention toward, like hiiiii :3
