Apocalypse Now (1979)

     To some extent Apocalypse Now (1979) weirdly belongs in the same category of films as Gone With the Wind (1939). Both are titans of cinema; undertakings as successful as they are grand, and incredibly difficult for me to watch. I was dreading rewatching Apocalypse Now as soon as I finished my first viewing. I guessed a rewatch would be inevitable. After all I didn’t really feel like I truly “got it”. In truth I still don’t think I do, but now more than ever I’m pretty sure I don’t really want to.

Cabaret (1972)

     10 months 2 jobs later in a year besotten by a pandemic I return to the old film blog. It's nice to know that no matter how often I abandon it I can always come back to post more musings. I've gone back to the old scratch off poster again fulfilling a promise I made just over a year ago that I'd muse on Cabaret (1972). So I done did a watch of the movie so lets do a talk about it.

Venom (2019) and Another Reboot: Rise Zombie Blog RISE!!!!

Wow I've not touched this blog in months. It was 2019 last time I posted and then I went silent with no explanation so um... surprise? Got better from my possession by the way it just seemed to vanish? it was weird I just woke up November 1st and it was gone... I'm sure it wont be back. Anyway, The silence had a lot to do with the fact that I started to write a novel... yeah like a real big boy novel. I got a draft done mid-December (at 58,000 words no less just wow). Anyway keeping quite about it for now but its a LONG way off so none of you all need to worry about it just yet. Rather, I'm gonna try and do this blog thing again. So this is kinda another reboot of the blog I'm gonna mix more contemporary works in with the older stuff cause watching just older films was starting to annoy me and I'm going to upload less to accomodate the work on my novel. Gonna try for weekly uploads but no promises I can't keep. enough rambling: Venom was a thing I just watched, and I wanna talk about so here we go.
