Spring Season: Weeks 51/52
Hey hey, it's March! Again! Or possibly still? Who can tell for certain!
Work has once again kicked my ass! Even more than usual! I'm a little worried that it's going to keep getting worse and eventually I won't be able to keep up with things! Guess we'll see, ha ha!
We had another brutal cold snap, hopefully the last of the season? It's snowing a ton now, but that just means it's finally warm enough again to snow, so I'll take it.
Ugh, I got nothing. What if I just try updating every day this month so I don't feel like I'm forgetting a ton of things whenever I do get around to it? I worry that would just heavily underline how fucking boring my life is, though. Maybe there truly is just nothing to say!
To the movie spoiler zone! More documentaries than usual this week.
FILMS
Actress (2014): So staged, I legit did not realize it wasn't meant to be fiction, and it doesn't do anything of interest with the blurring of that line, so all that's left is... pretentious reality television?
Bisbee '17 (2018): The documentary/reenactment combo was neat, but wooooooow this did not hold my attention at ALL.
Days of Heaven (1978): I have a complicated relationship with Terrence Malick. I have room in my heart for exactly one of his movies, and I love it to the ends of the world and back, but all of the things that click for me so well in that movie just bore the crap out of me in all of his other ones. Well, at least this was pretty!
Death of a Salesman (1985): Very stagey, and I found the subject matter exactly as engaging as I did in high school English class, but the performances do a lot of heavy lifting here. Even if the notion of football jock John Malkovich is kinda lolwut
Father Goose (1964): Took a while to get into it, and the central romance never really made it beyond tepid, but once he and the kids win each other over, it's actually a fair bit of fun. Drunk Leslie Caron was actually amazing?
The Gates (2007): Jesus FUCK people are whiny. I'm glad I watched this one after Walking on Water, because I think sad old widower Christo would have really bummed me out if I'd seen him and Jeanne-Claude doing their thing for decades straight beforehand.
Harold and Maude (1971): Everyone's favourite manic pixie dream octogenarian is here again to dispense with some comfort food.
La mujer sin cabeza (2008): Intriguingly put together, I just wish it... went somewhere? Anywhere? Worth a revisit at some point so as to better pick up what it's putting down, because you can tell that there's a lot going on under the hood here.
House of Games (1987): Better on the rewatch, since I wasn't spending the whole thing boggling at how obvious every aspect of what was going on admidst all the weird robot dialogue was, and could just enjoy all the cool grift-y atmosphere, which is probably closer to the point of the thing. Plus Ricky Jay!
Incense, Sweaters, & Ice (2017): Probably more interesting in a more interactive format, since as a straight up movie it's just waaaaaaaay too meandering for me. Some nice beats, with some real long drags in between them.
Indiscreet (1958): Why is this filed under comedies? This is just a straight up romance with nary a joke to be found. I guess because it had even less drama? Not my bag.
Kate Plays Christine (2016): A much better slant on everything that Actress did so poorly. Still not great, but at least it tries to have a fucking point.
The Loveless (1981): This is such a great 'just vibing' movie, even if Willem Defoe is uncomfortably young. "We're goin' nowhere... fast."
March of the Wooden Soldiers (1934): Or Babes in Toyland I guess? The former seems like the better title, even if the latter is what it was based on. ANYWAY. That terrifying Mickey Mouse monkey? The human eyes staring helplessly out from behind the grotesque little pig masks? No thank you! No thank you sir! Needed more Laurel and Hardy, and less abject horror!
The Night of the Hunter (1955): Leeeeeeaning, leeeeeeeaning....
Nocturama (2016): All of the painstakingly patient table setting edged onto the aggravating side for me, like a two hour episode of Better Call Saul without the character work, but the payoff was satisfying enough in the end. The inevitable always catches up, that's kind of the point of it.
The Ogre (1996): Very strange and uncomfortable and relentlessly compelling.
Paths of Glory (1957): Sometimes you just want to cry yourself into a headache on a Wednesday night, you know?
The Prison in Twelve Landscapes (2016): I wish any of this surprised me. Or maybe not, maybe it's good that it doesn't anymore, that I'm not completely ignorant to this shit. Or not GOOD, but... I don't know. It's all so exhausting. Beautiful cinematography. Don't expect some sweeping indictment of the prison industrial complex, or a deep dive into the racism of the system, it's just what it says on the tin. Landscapes.
Tabu: A Story of the South Seas (1931): I'm just such a sucker for Murnau, man.
Voyager (1991): yikes bikes
Walking on Water (2018): Tedious Logistical Problems: The Movie
Western (2015): Sad. Just a very understated, very sad time.
Zama (2017): Could have been a lot more boring than it ended up being, which is pretty faint praise, but idk, it was fine. A dour colonialist parable where the protagonist is so awful that all the tediously bad shit that happens to him just ends up being wildly funny? That's kinda neat, I guess.
SHORTS
Antes de irme (2017): THIS LADY'S LACK OF BOUNDARIES AND HOW UNCRITICAL THE MOVIE WAS OF IT MADE ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. That's not a knock on it, though. Felt kinda weirdly anachronistic, like it was set in 2007, not 2017, but maybe that's just how Argentina be?
Black Power in America: Myth or Reality? (1986): Just minding my own business on a lazy Friday when suddenly Don King. There's lots to unpack here, and I don't feel qualified to do it, but this was very interesting as a specific artifact of a specific moment in time, one that you don't really think about in terms of the broader history of the civil rights movement. We didn't just jump from the sixties to now, you know?
Easy Pizza Riderz (2002): Very silly. A quick shot of fun.
Four Boys in a Volvo (1996): Well, it's certainly what it says on the tin. Dead dove do not eat, etc., etc.
The Second Line (2007): The casual devastation of living somewhere ravaged by disaster (which still feels like a weird thing to relate to, but hey). Sometimes doing the wrong thing is so much more satisfying. Liked this one a lot.
Univitellin (2016): Fairy tale romance, but like, the brutal, old school, very unhappy style of fairy tale. Didn't get the ending!
We Demand (2016): A quick, engaging little slice of history.
TELEVISION
AEW Dark 3x07-3x08: SO I ONLY JUST REALIZED THAT JON CRUZ AND SERPENTICO ARE THE SAME PERSON. All it took was them wrestling back-to-back fucking matches to notice. Jesus christ, me. Also, they're adding a second weekly Dark show next month, so this is really just gonna be my life now, I guess!
AEW Dynamite 3x07-3x08: It's almost Revolution time! This will be the first PPV that I'm all caught up for! What might be my single favourite AEW match happened at the last one! Aaaah! Looking at the card:
AEW Women's World Championship Eliminator Tournament Shows 1-3: I could say a lot of deservedly negative things about AEW's continual marginalization of its women's division, but wrestling is my happy place right now, so I'm just going to focus on the tournament itself and not the slapdash, afterthought way it's been presented, because the actual tournament has been phenomenal. Compared to the men's eliminator tournament last year, where it was obvious from the instant the bracket dropped that it was going to end with Kenny vs. Hangman at Full Gear (and it did, and it was great and broke my heart forever, but that's beside the point), this thing has been completely unpredictable on top of having tons of great matches, and it's just been so much fun to watch as a result. Maybe it's just because the women had so little plot going into it, but it's fun to not know how things are going to go! I was truly convinced Britt was going to win the whole thing, have a killer rematch with Thunder Rosa along the way, and take the belt from Shida at Revolution, then she got bumped out in the semifinals! Figured that meant they wanted to have a Riho/Nyla rematch to celebrate Riho's return, then NOPE, Rosa vs. Nyla in the finals! Assumed Yuka was pretty much a lock to win the Japanese side of the bracket (which OH MY GOD, has been so amazing, some fantastic matches with a very different vibe from anything else they've done and a great introduction to some phenomenal new talent (Maki Itoh! Mei Suruga as the cutest heel ever! VENY OH MY GOD I LOVE VENY SIGN ALL OF THESE PEOPLE PLEASE) while also reintroducing older talent that's been stuck overseas since the pandemic hit (Emi Sakura has been in two of the best matches in the entire tournament (three if you count the bonus tag), which I would NOT have expected based on what she was doing in AEW previously)) since she was already so over, but NOPE, Ryo Mizunami took it, the fun badass butch chick who wrestled only once before for AEW back in 2019! What!! I wonder if that might have had something to do with who was most available to travel and spend weeks quarantining to be on Dynamite this week? Either way, now I'm assuming that if Rosa beats Nyla tomorrow, she'll go on to win the belt, and if Nyla beats Rosa, the finals could go either way and Shida will retain at Revolution after all (before losing to Britt at Double or Nothing maybe?), but who the fuck knows! Not me! And that rules! Ooooh, maybe Britt will cause Rosa to lose somehow and THAT will set up their rematch?? Wrestling! Now if only they'd put it all on fucking television like they would for the men!
Josh Barnett's Bloodsport 5: Mox is really out here doing bloody shoot style fights days before finally defending his IWGP title and the week before a fucking exploding barbed wire match, huh? He is just living his best life of violence right now and I could not be happier for him.
IMPACT! Wrestling 18x07-18x08: Fewer AEW crossovers this time around with the Private Party/Matt Hardy title shot plot wrapped in No Surrender, but when the two NJPW FinJuice dudes showed up, I had just watched their Wrestle Kingdom match on the Roku Channel so I still got that rush of 'hey I know that guy!', which was nice.
No Surrender 2021: I was just here for the tag team three-way title match, which was a lot of fun. The bit where Chris Sabin went toe-to-toe with Isiah and then tried to tell him that he's a good wrestler and doesn't need Matt haranguing him on the sidelines was surprisingly touching, even if it was fruitless. And even if I still don't go here, the main event being 'Tommy Dreamer gets a title shot for his fiftieth birthday present' was a fucking wild idea and it actually got me feeling some kinda way!
NJPW Strong 2x07-2x08: Holy shit, Moxley beat KENTA! I was truly not expecting that! With he and Kenny set to fucking murder each other at Revolution this weekend and a baby on the way, I really assumed they'd have him drop the title and then he'd disappear for a while to stay home, but... I guess not?? Which makes sense if the rumours about NJPW wanting to work with AEW specifically to have access to him are true. Hopefully he'll be around to defend that belt more often now, because that was a banger of a match, easily the best thing I've seen on this show yet.
New Japan Pro-Wrestling 1x01-1x12: I don't know what to call this, I think it's old episodes of the World Pro-Wrestling weekly highlights show they have? Whatever, it's the NJPW stuff they've started putting on the Roku Channel, I figured it looked like a convenient, easy way to dip my toe into a promotion that I know nothing about without getting overwhelmed. I'm enjoying it! The first ten episodes were just matches from last year's Wrestle Kingdom, and that big beautiful Tokyo Dome crowd was real bittersweet to see.
Riverdale 5x05-5x06: IT'S STILL SO WEIRD TO BE ENJOYING THIS SHOW AGAIN, GUYS. I keep expecting the other shoe to drop, or wondering if I'm just deluding myself somehow, but I don't know, I'm still having fun! I shouldn't question it! All the characters are teachers now for some reason! Just go with it! Riverdale!
WandaVision 1x07-1x08: ONLY ONE EPISODE LEFT. HOW. AAAAAHHHHH. Gonna have to throw a final round of wild predictions on Discord or something before the finale, this show has been so great and so much fun to dig into with friends on the reg. LONG LIVE WEEKLY RELEASE SCHEDULES.
Did I just write a paragraph with parentheses nested three layers deep? No way I closed those things properly FUCK IT, POST.
Work has once again kicked my ass! Even more than usual! I'm a little worried that it's going to keep getting worse and eventually I won't be able to keep up with things! Guess we'll see, ha ha!
We had another brutal cold snap, hopefully the last of the season? It's snowing a ton now, but that just means it's finally warm enough again to snow, so I'll take it.

AEW Dynamite 3x07-3x08: It's almost Revolution time! This will be the first PPV that I'm all caught up for! What might be my single favourite AEW match happened at the last one! Aaaah! Looking at the card:
- Cannot bring myself to get enthused for Young Bucks vs. Jericho/MJF. I just can't do it. I'm tired of Jericho and his tag team partner du jour, and all of the good Elite/Inner Circle drama right now is WITHIN the groups themselves, so seeing them fight each other right now is just whatever when I'd rather see them getting their own houses in order instead. Still, I'm sure there's going to be something crazy planned for this, they know they've got a ton to live up to after last year in terms of the Bucks and the tag team titles. WOW ME.
- I am less excited for the Team Taz vs. Darby/Sting match than I'm excited for this feud to finally be over. Since I'm sure this will be a cinematic match (Sting is in his 60s ffs), hopefully they go out strong and end it on a high note after dragging things out for eight bajillion years.
- I've got a lot to ramble about re: the women's tournament, and since I won't know who is even gonna win it and face Shida until Wednesday, I'll save it for a minute. Hope this is a good one! Shida deserves it!
- Hangman Page vs. Matt Hardy should be good, the money stipulation is a fun bit of flavour, but overall it looks like it'll be a fairly low-stakes match for my cowboy that should tie up a whole bunch of little ongoing threads that he's been running with for the last couple of months. My money's still on him being the one to take the belt off of Kenny when the time comes, so this could be the start of him getting a real push, except with him and Dark Order making up (i so happy), things almost seem to be going TOO well for him right now. I DON'T TRUST IT.
- The ladder match sounds like it should be fun as hell, though the real interesting part is the question of who the surprise sixth spot is going to go to, especially since whole other fucking promotions full of possible options are on the table now. What are the chances that it ends up being somebody I actually recognize?
- Miro and Kip vs. Chuck and Orange? Okay, I guess? Guessing this will go after some big dramatic match to cool things down a bit, because it doesn't really feel like something for a PPV card. Maybe Trent will show up, surely his titty should be healing nicely by now.
- Casino tag team battle royale! I know we just had a tag team BR on Dynamite, but the casino format means this one should be a lot less chaotic, so I'm here for it! Hope more teams get announced for it, but I suspect I'll be spending the whole thing shouting JUSTICE FOR PROUD 'N' POWERFUL regardless. I really need Santana & Ortiz to be the next champs after all this time getting sidelined by Jericho, man.
- As soon as that episode of Dynamite ended, I asked the ether what the fuck an exploding barbed wire match was. Twitter answered me! Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley are going to fucking murder each other on my television and I cannot fucking wait for it. Revolution!! Sunday night!!!
AEW Women's World Championship Eliminator Tournament Shows 1-3: I could say a lot of deservedly negative things about AEW's continual marginalization of its women's division, but wrestling is my happy place right now, so I'm just going to focus on the tournament itself and not the slapdash, afterthought way it's been presented, because the actual tournament has been phenomenal.
