Saw "The Conclave" recently. Pretty good. The Pope dies and the Cardinals all congregate in Rome
to appoint the new Pope. Let the infighting commence. Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci and John Lithgow
all do a good job. I didn't care for the ending though, kinda weird. A solid 8 out of 10 (if you skip the last five minutes or so).

David Lynch, Twin Peaks and Muholland Drive director, dies aged 78

I'm not normally one to be extremely bummed by celebrity deaths. (I think the last two that really affected me were Steve Albini of Shellac and Adam Yauch of Beastie Boys.) But man, this one really hurts.
Aww man .. one of those beloved directors who highly acclaimed people speak so highly of but I was never smart enough to appreciate

Almost watched Blue Velvet the other day, will def watch soon
 
Sad news. I loved Twin Peaks, Blue Velvet and Eraserhead back in the day

On a lighter note, big day for animation fans: Castlevania Nocturne S2 and Harley Quinn S5 both out today.

Ahh man this sucks. Blue Velvet I'll never forget first watching it. Have watched Lynch's Dune so many times. Also Wild At Heart another underrated Lynch film.
 


Wife said she didnt know who Bob Uecker was so I played this last night before we went to bed

I was eating cereal, and I was really high, but I started laughing that became an uncontrollable laugh, just like a 12 year old giggling off his first joint .. .. but I also had food in my mouth so I was having trouble breathing laughing and trying to eat and then Bob keep spitting out zingers

it became a thing

my wife actually stood up off the couch not sure what her next move should be but she felt distance was a good start

Star Wars Skeleton Crew…..I was disappointed the whole show. I found Jude Law’s character so unlikeable when I wanted him to be likeable.

Last episode however was a bit redeeming overall.

Watched that whole thing…..thanks.

Ueck was soooo deadpan……hilarious.
 
Watched all of Landman now that all the episodes are out on paramount+. It was pretty OK, I expect a season 2 but its was mostly 10 episodes of Billy Bob smoking cigs and talking about oil.

The Jerry Jones cameo is E9 btw
