Now read the book!

From what I've read about the film, it's not for me.

My big complaint has been scheduling! Tuesday I had to switch between Prime for PWHL and cable for NHL. Last night both games were on cable, albeit at the same time. At least Saturday they'll be different times

A couple of times, I used Roger's MultiView feature to watch 4 games at the same time on the TV. I've done the same on my computer monitor but it's just a titch smaller screen.

If nothing else, the PWHL will have a Canadian champion this year.

This morning, I am watching the last 5 episodes of Come Dine With Me, Canada. I've started sorting the 5 participants in each group by type. There is always the Grinch who seems to have issues with being a better critic than a cook/host for their night, the Kindly One who is a lot more forgiving about slow service, etc. I know Kindly One is not quite correct but I like it.

Today I've been watching Apple TV. I watched an episode of Plur1bus and an episode of Tiny World.

Rumpelteazer · 05-16-2026, 01:22 PM

Today's movie was Black Phone 2. Again, a good movie, but not as good as the original.

Up next is probably Practical Magic, which I think I've never watched in it's entirety. Tomorrow is going to be a rainy day, so I might watch two movies instead of just one. Although I'm not sure what the second one will be.

But tonight I'm going to watch the Eurovision Song Contest, although I probably won't last until the end.

I've been watching Chicago Fire. I plan to finish the Chicago shows soon. I have 8 episodes left.

Rumpelteazer · 05-17-2026, 12:35 PM

Today's movie was Practical Magic. Which I enjoyed, and I'm planning on going to see the sequel in theater when it's released.

I still have time to watch another movie today, which is going to be Nobody 2, with Bob Odenkirk. I enjoyed the first one, so I'm hoping this one will be good, too.

I did choose well with my movie list length wise. None of them run over 2 hours, most of them are around 90 to 105 minutes long. Which is great if you want to watch a movie at night, but have to go to bed in time.

I'm not fond of the current trend that a lot of movies run over 2.5 hours, when a lot of them could have easily been 1.5 hours long without damaging the story, IMHO.

Some movies deserve a 2-2.5 hour running time, like The Silence of the Lambs or Project Hail Mary and The Lord of the Rings movies (which run even longer, especially the extended versions).

JSWolf · 05-17-2026, 03:03 PM

Tomorrow's movie is going to be Alien 3 - The Legacy Cut. It's a fan edited version. It's very good.

Rumpelteazer · 05-21-2026, 04:19 AM

I didn't watch any movies the last couple of days, I was just too tired after work to concentrate.

I did watch Nobody 2 on Sunday, which was fun and entertaining. On Monday I watched The Crash documentary on Netflix. There's an episode of the docu series Mean Girls on HBO/Discovery about the same subject, which gives other/more info about the case.

Watching The Terminator franchise.
Started with The Terminator, then Terminator Zero, and Terminator 2,
Currently watching Terminator:The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
Then I'll follow that with the rest of the movies and Terminator Salvation The Machinima Series

Then it's onto The Boys!!

JSWolf · 05-21-2026, 07:49 AM

I'm catching up on a bunch of TV series. I've watched Matlock, FBI, Boston Blue, NCIS, and Chicago Med.

I'm going to be finishing the Chicago Shows current seasons next week. By sometime in June, I should be able to finish all of the network shows I've been watching that have all finished their current seasons.

Not that I am aware of but I haven't really searched hard as I've got the Blurays for all except The Machinima Series which is on Youtube.
