Yes it’s me. The 35 year old man reduced to tears by Ghostbusters. I miss my dad. My ★★★½ review of Ghostbusters: Afterlife on @letterboxd: https://boxd.it/2iCErl

Up to MOONRISE KINGDOM in my Wes Anderson rewatch (I accidentally skipped by beloved FANTASTIC MR. FOX). He really hits his stride here. https://t.co/52gb0sELvq

The Gift of the Magi

O. Henry

@LostTurntable The cannibalism suggests it’s probably more of a Last Supper/Easter jam, but it’s basically an erotic riff on O. Henry’s “Gift of the Magi” short story, so it still fits the season.

These Truths: A History of the United States

Jill Lepore
Ryan SilberwhateverRyan Silberwhatever

@evanheisman If I were teaching US history (which I considered!) I would lobby to use Jill Lepore’s These Truths ad the textbook. She drops a lot of chaff from the first 150 years of history in favor of including more recent things and previously underrepresented groups in history books.

@turksespinnekop I am glad you will give it a chance even though you didn’t like the last one! Also likely to be John Williams last released score now that he’s retiring.

Batman: The Animated Series is my favorite TV show of all time and Kevin Conroy’s performance as Batman and Bruce Wayne is a major reason why. To this day, when I read a Batman comic, I hear Conroy’s voice in my head. He was absolutely perfect in the role.
