Look, COVID-19 has prevented a lot of cool things from taking place this year, and I imagine it will continue to steam-roll the rest of 2020. This makes me really sad, as I’ve had to miss out on countless concerts and a handful of semi-local conventions. I look forward to these types of events because, if it’s not obvious, I love all things famous! And what better way to hear from, gaze at from afar, or straight up meet in person than at a convention?!

Movie Madness
I managed to shove quite a few movies into this normal, non-holiday weekend. Some of them were brand new (to streaming services, of course), while others were new to me, while the rest were just some of my old favorites. I won’t bore you with the details this time, so there’s just a tease below.

Well, I suppose it wasn’t much of a marathon given that I had a couple extra days off, but nonetheless, I assume it was more movies than your average adult watched. Nothing too crazy below, just enough of a summary to maybe peak your interests.

I’ve done better and I’ve done worse in terms of quantity and quality, but I’ll consider this weekend’s movie prospects a success regardless. Your high level recap awaits!
Read moreOscar Worthy (and not so Oscar Worthy) Movie Weekend
I did indeed watch an Oscar-winning picture this weekend, but it seems like to offset that brilliance I had to also watch something incredibly stupid. Which I also did. There was also a Coen Brothers film in the middle there, so really it’s a net positive on the weekend as a whole.

Coming at you a few days removed from the weekend, but still relevant, here is a brief recap of the somewhat mediocre films I watched this weekend.
Read moreMinimal Movie Review
I am fully aware that the number of movies I watched this weekend is in fact still above average compared to almost everyone I know. But two movies is almost pathetic! At least by my standards, and especially since I watched 25 movies last month. Oh well, it’s a slow start but I don’t doubt I’ll have a strong finish (even if it is getting nicer out). Now, there were onlt two movies, but they were fairly strong choices!

I say it was a slow movie weekend only because I didn’t watch nine of them like I did last week. I watched a respectable three, but only one new one. But sometimes it’s nice to revisit old favorites.

I had a three and a half day weekend to cram in as many movies as I could, and I totally think I succeeded! It was a broad mix of genres (and languages), so I’m sure you’ll connect with something I saw.
Read moreRed Dragon Book & Movie Review
As I mentioned before, I’m sort of obsessed with Hannibal, so I decided to get in tune with the source material. Before watching the 2002 movie of the same name, I decided I first wanted to read the 1982 Thomas Harris novel, Red Dragon. I thought this would be a good way to compare how Hannibal did and then compare it to the movie afterwards. That way, I wouldn’t accidentally overlap anything that happened.
