  Queer 2024

  Rewatched 01 Jan 2025 6

  Not a review, but... here are my movie-watching resolutions for 2025 lol

  - Rewatch more movies (~30% of films watched): This year, 17% of the movies I watched were rewatches. I want to study some of the stuff I watch more in-depth. Being another year removed from school, I want to make sure I can keep learning and not become lazy as a consumer. Also, director's commentary tracks!!!

  - Less new shit, more old stuff: My worst habit this past…

  storytime: had a truly demonic time watching this tonight.

  i drove an hour into the middle of nowhere (the danbarry cinema in chillicothe, oh) to see this on the big screen after i abstained from clicking on the google drive link that’s been floating around the internet. the theater was situated behind a shopping complex, and the parking lot was empty. the sign’s lights were already off for the evening.

  inside, the concession guy waited for me. he printed out…
