A lot of films are built on antithesis, like Black Swan and Fight Club, where identity basically splits in two and clashes with itself. Another Earth kind of fits into that same group, but it’s way less known and more of an arthouse film.
I only watched it recently, and it’s been stuck in my head a bit since. There’s no big drama or anything - just this weird, quiet feeling that somewhere out there, another version of you might be living a totally different life.
I’ve also really started to like Brit Marling’s work. It just feels really intimate, like she’s not trying to over-explain things, just sitting with these ideas...

IMAX poster for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is released – this is first film of Nolan that was filmed entirely in this format.
The Odyssey will arrive in cinemas in middle of July.

I recall reading a book on Robin Hood in 5th grade. I gave a book report on it. The ending and shooting the arrow to his burial spot really had an impact on me.
Wish i knew what book it was. Really showed me the depth a character in a book could have maybe for first time.
Now there’s a movie about The Death of Robin Hood. Looks good!

Widow's Bay on Apple TV is seriously not talked about enough. I highly recommend it!

I’m a big fan of last episode of Euphoria.
Genuinely interesting meditation on religion — the role that it plays in grief, tragedy, and redemption.
The season was a pretty good thriller — I’m impressed how the writing evolved.

Given the current paucity of genuinely funny comedies, Ladies First came as a welcome surprise. It's not a 10/10 by any means, but there were several moments that made me laugh out loud, which is saying something these days.
So yes, I'd recommend it 🍿

Just toured Texas’ only dual laser IMAX theater
Sadly no pictures/video were allowed, but I did have a blast and learned a few things!
- The screen is 8 stories wide by 6 stories tall
- Each projector cost $1m, and there are 2, this doesn’t include screen and audio
- With film, you don’t get the super rich blacks that you get digitally (preference init)
- Hybrid IMAX film/laser systems exist but are rare, and are most likely the future
