Heavy thunderstorm day, so rewatching 'Bedazzled' for the first time since forever, probably decades. And a few dated early 2000's product-of-its-time elements aside, it's still a fun casual watch, with an actually solid message by the end.

Elizabeth Hurley as the Devil remains iconic in every scene, and Brendan Fraser's sensitive, awkward nerd vibe continues to occupy a soft spot in my heart.

Been really curious about "Snow Bear" ever since I caught a glimpse of it several months ago. It's an 11-minute animated short, that is basically the independent passion project of former Disney animator Aaron Blaise, and I'm really glad that I got the chance to finally watch it as it's now officially released for free on YouTube after several limited film festival screenings.

The film is entirely hand-drawn in old school style 2D animation, and tells the story of a lonely polar bear who creates a companion out of snow so he has someone like himself to spend time with. It's a tender story with a clear message about climate change, its effect on different species, and the effort that needs to be made in order to prevent the worse. It's also a moving story about loneliness and hope, that ends with an optimistic note, staying true to its "you don't have to be alone" tagline.

🔗 More thoughts on the film here:

Ok, il nuovo Frankenstein di Del Toro ora l'ho visto due volte.

Posso dire? Che noia.

Credo (dico credo perché ormai son passati tanti anni e del libro non ho tantissimi ricordi), credo, appunto, che segua abbastanza il materiale originale, ma.

Per me manca di mordente, ecco. Troppe piroette visive, invece. Troppi fondali che sembrano generati da ChatGPT. Svolazzi, cose, lupi finti. Uff.

Peccato, con quel cast, non puntare tutto sugli attori.

THIS SUNDAY at 9pm Eastern (that's 2am UTC (because of Daylight Savings Time) oops double brackets sorry 'bout that) IT'S #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Come join the nerds of the Fediverse as we watch a skin-peelingly bad movie! For fun!

This week we're watching Alligator (1980), another in a long line of Jaws-aping Big Animal Coming To Eat You movies. Supposedly intended to be a comedy, but that's what they all say.

Anyway, the flick's available on Tubi free with ads over here: https://tubitv.com/movies/100006257/alligator

Or on YouTube from Shout! Factory, who I guess owns the rights right now? Apparently has some blurring and bleeping to Save Young Minds From Corruption By Demon Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cublv_ELVp4

Or you can download from Archive.org over here: https://archive.org/details/alligator-1980

My wife creates a lot of #stainedglass projects that are a little outside the norm. 👻

Here is one she made before #Halloween to pay homage to Stanley Kubrick's classic #film, The Shining.
