For me, it’s Commander Walker in Apollo 18 quoting President Nixon’s real contingency speech for the Apollo 11 mission: “Fate has ordained that the men who went to the moon to explore in peace, will stay on the moon to rest in peace.” The atmosphere of the movie when the line is said, combined with the eeriness of the idea of being stranded alone on the moon to die, is just super unsettling to me.

Horror movie tropes

Posted by /u/rushbc

Here is a short list of horror movie tropes that have really started to bother me. These happen in so many horror movies!

- running the wrong way

- always must fall down at least once while running away

- going into a place that you should never go in to (and should know better)

- cell phones never get a signal

- cars never start

- flashlights always fail

- Overhead lighting always flickers

- trying to be quiet but failing

- the bad guy looks dead but isn’t

Can you think of any more?

Countdown is holding at ~three weeks.

Tonight, Donnie and Megan decided they needed to light the fire pit. But rather than do a couple things up front (like move the chair(s) outside before going crazy with lighter fluid, and close the windows that were open) they waited until the fire was going.

My whole house smells like lighter fluid and wood smoke. I have a monster headache, and breathing while sitting back in my chair is proving a little trickier than I'd thought it would be. I'm sitting up now, and I've used my inhaler. But the back of my throat is sore now, and my chest hurts, and is it really that difficult to think of someone else before doing something? There's no one in this apartment who isn't aware that I have asthma, plus allergy season has already started for me.

Matthew is still struggling with depression and thoughts of suicide, and he's not the only one who kind of wants out of this life. We're also still struggling with money -- I thought everything got paid, and it didn't, and now my checking account is overdrawn, and I just would like to catch a break. Not even a big break. Just a little one.

But now I need to go scoop out the litterboxes. Joy.

Peter Vincent Vampire Killer is his idol

He never misses a show

Yet he has no idea whatsoever on how to stop...or kill a suspected Vampire that just moved next door

He's willing to give actual money to his good friend EVIL on tips on how to survive the night ?

your so uncool Brewster...pay attention

Bruh...wtf!

The acting, the setting, the cinematography, the buildup, the monster reveal, all so damn good. It went from yeah this is how hikers die in the forest to oh shit this is how hikers die in the forest?!

Loved the dynamic of the group and how they're trying to cope with the recent tragedy they went through. It was cool to see how each of them responded differently to what was happening to them in the forest.

The ending left me with questions. What were the people at the end saying and did any of them actually want to harm the protagonist? Why did the monster let him go? Does it represent something more? What was the intention behind its design (cause it looked so strange and so awesome)?

I gotta hear some other peoples thoughts on this movie and any further explanation to wtf was going on lmao

Arena

My first chore today was to send off the information my tax guy needs for the part of the Ranch that is held as a corporation.  Corporate taxes are due March 15, not April 15. Sigh. 
This afternoon I took the tractor down to the arena and spent a lot of time going in tight circles as fast as I could.  According to someone I talked to that is the secret for leveling out an arena. My arena had big lumps in it where truck loads of sand were dumped. Over time the lumps have gotten better, but it has been easy to see that it was far from flat. The circles seems to have worked, the arena looks a lot better, but then it always looks better after it has been all stirred up and the footing is soft.  Leslie Miller was there, she came to camp for the weekend. So were Glen and Alice.  They all helped first clear the arena so I could work it up, and then set for this weekend's Obstacle Practice.  It was fun up until I had to race back to the house to meet Denise who came and trimmed Firefly's feet. 
Off early tomorrow to finish setup and get ready to greet riders.  Only 5 coming Sat and 7 on Sun.

Finally actually playing this after a brief stint where I was too annoyed to look at it. (The fact that you can't turn off auto-save in the game pisses me off.)

I'm not very far in yet; only made it to my first advancement match. I'm liking the story and the characters so far, but the gameplay... Look, I like turn-based gameplay. I'll probably at least try to knuckle through to the end of this, but I do miss that from the other games. Add to it the fact that the 3D camera is making me kinda dizzy, and, well.

Honestly, a replay of Fire Red and/or Leaf Green and watching the cut scenes/a Let's Play on YouTube is looking pretty appealing by comparison.

Drowning by Numbers (1988). A woman, her daught, and her niece are all named Cissie, drown their husbands, and depend on the local coroner Madgett (Bernard Hill) to cover up their crimes.

This is a surrealist late-80s comedy meditating on death and also games and numbers of various kinds, which is to say it feels very much of a piece with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, except for having no Shakespeare and being more focused on female characters. It's all nonsense; nobody is really a real person here, and that's fine. It's also pretty horny in various ways, and in fact Madgett proposes to each of the Cissies in turn. You kind of want him to succeed with one or possibly all of them.

If you want a sense of what you're in for with this movie, Madgett's introduction gives you a pretty good one.

--

The Bride! (2026). Maggie Gyllenhaal directs this riff on the Frankenstein mythos, this time a sometime-musical Bonnie and Clyde story about Frankenstein's creature Frank (Christian Bale), still alive in the 1930s, and the bride (Jessie Buckley) that he talks a mad scientist into "reinvigorating" for him. The dead woman thus invigorated was a mobster's call girl, but she doesn't remember any of that anymore. Sometimes Mary Shelley talks to her for some reason.

If you get the sense from this description that this movie has a lot going on, you are correct. I would say this movie is less than the sum of its parts, but I really enjoy several of those parts. Buckley is fantastic, and Annette Bening as Doctor Euphronius is delightful. The big dance number is fun. The movie has a lot of style and is sometimes cheekily anachronistic.

The various pieces don't ever really cohere; there are too many of them. And some of the pieces I enjoyed less, like the Overboard-style plot where our revived gal thinks she's still alive and was already married to Frank before her "accident." The subplot of her being occasionally literally possessed by Mary Shelley was just baffling to me. I get that it was supposed to be thematic, but: why. But, the movie tackles all its various tones and themes with a lot of energy and verve, and overall I found a lot to enjoy.

--

Send Help (2026). A frumpy woman who dreams of competing on Survivor crashlands on an island with her horrible boss.

This is a psychological thriller by Sam Raimi, and it took me a long time to go see it because ~suspense movies about people chasing each other around trying to kill each other aren't usually my thing. (See also: every home invasion movie except You're Next.) But! We don't really get that until the end, and in the meantime, Rachel McAdams is delightful as Linda Little, who's competent and helpful to a fault until she's finally pushed too far. I love how much of a glow-up Linda gets the longer they stay on the island. There were also some late developments that I really liked.

It's not breaking any new ground, but it's fun and well-executed. If you support women's wrongs(tm), I think you'll enjoy this.

I think it’s pretty widely considered that Ghost Ship has one of the best horror film opens even if the rest of the movie doesn’t even come close to living up to that hype.

I was watching House of Wax last night which I think works in reverse, a slower start but a fantastic last act and practical effects. What are your examples of films that took a while to get going but really hit the last act?

Malignant is also a lot of fun but the last act definitely goes off the rails in a good way

The day started with a nightmare. I dreamed I was in my dad's workshop in his basement screaming at him that no one liked him and he was crying. Mom was yelling at me why did you do this and I said he was hitting my SiL and I lost it (to be clear he would never do that).

I go to work shocked everyone actually showed up except a few trapped by flooding (ah spring). It was going well...and then I got two emails (I wasn't even going to look at them but I needed to get any late submissions of work due today) about more cheating. And it IS more, in a different class. One has only heard about the girls bragging about it and doesn't want in trouble and the other came to speak to me since she was on campus and she said the same thing they're bragging about it. She doesn't know the student's name but from her description I know exactly who it is (another athlete)

Since I didn't catch them and there's no proof, I can't kick it up the chain. I DID tell the dean and I plan on talking to the heads of their departments to get some help. Not saying a word to them, just making them all put their phones in a box. They get them back at the end of the exam. No warning. Let's see what happens then. And other one hasn't been to lab...ever. Just has excuses and asks to make them up. Guess that's going away.

So now I'm an hour late getting home. Then the GI track says yeah you ain't leaving the bathroom. Once that fit was pitched I started getting ready and my sugar crashes out. Eye roll. Rocket tried to get in the bedroom and hide. FINALLY I'm out of the house. It's now after 230 and I haven't had lunch.

I have to go to Jackson to get a book from the library before it's sent back so I'll go to Sonic's. Get there. It's 240 and there are NINE cars in line. I nope out, stop for KFC and then go to Tim Horton's, the new one and this is the third time the guys on the window can't figure out a drink order (caramel machiatto, it's your standard fing menu) so I might be done with this place.

In the mean time the gas station's are changing their prices by 50 cents so I get my library book, race back across town to where they haven't got that message yet. Off I go. It's now 3 pm. I was supposed to BE here by now.

Luckily it was an easy drive and this Best Western has been recently redone. It's nice, clean...and the bathroom is an afterthought. You come in the door and immediately is a curtain pretending an alcove is the closet (at least there's a half dozen hangers not that I need them for 1 day) and the bathroom is SO small the toilet and tub nearly touch and the sink is in another part of the room outside the bathroom door.... BUT it has a fridge and microwave which the last two expensive hotels I've stayed at did not manage to have.

Everyone and their grandma is in the pool. Glad I didn't plan on that but this place is...well let's just say I love living in the country but I DO miss having options. I had researched, as I always do, best places to eat and planned to go to Dolsot Bistro as there is NO Korean food within 60 miles of me. I get to the strip mall and in it side by side is Korean, Chinese, Boba place, Indian place, juice joint and Phoenican/middle east food and a huge stand alone Mexican place. WOW. AND in the 2 miles from my hotel to hear it was nothing but food and strip malls including three other Korean places and a Greek place right across the street.

I got some goonmandu (fried dumplings that were amazing) and tofu doenjang dolsot (fine cut tofu, basically a sweetish red miso, veggies and a lightly fried egg on the rice. man crispy rice is a different, tastier experience (yes I'm not meant to have rice but...this is once in like 2 years for me as far as Korean food goes). Also they had a sliver of their pancakes on the kimchi tray and man I wish that app wasn't the price of dinner or I'd gotten that. It was amazing.

In theory I get breakfast free here and they have the daily specials written out. Every day is the same thing....ha. If it sucks we share a parking lot with the Waffle House.

And if something goes sideways with the festival I'll just drop down to Cincinnati and do fun stuff.


I did write something.

Made blackberry and apple cake and mint tea tonight, for an end-of-week treat. I forgot how nice it is sometimes to feel like a little Redwall mouse after a long tiring day.

(I'd post pictures, but the lighting in my kitchen is terrible, so you'll just have to trust me when I say I burned the cake a little bit but it was still delicious.)

Diaries

I'm writing this with a cat on my lap. I have to periodically remind Carter that he can't grab for balance at shirt. There are breasts under there, my dude, and your claws are unwelcome. Really. But I can't bring myself to knock him off my lap. That's partly because I love him, and partly because I know it won't do much good; in a minute or two, he'll be back on my lap. I have found myself repeatedly surprised by finding him back on my lap after dumping him - I don't even notice him coming up to my lap until after he's made himself comfortable and me uncomfortable. Cats. Go figure.

Sunshine bathed the yard in random dashed lines as broken clouds scudded westward, slowly building the dull gray wall that seemed to be pushing the sun closer to the horizon. Ed stripped off the borrowed leather gloves, scanning along the perimeter of the yard for any weeds that he might have missed. The plastic grocery bag clipped to a belt loop on his right side was barely a quarter full, and long ingrained habits made him begin a third sweep, looking for stray bits of unwanted plants.

Unable to find any nearby, Ed patrolled the perimeter of the yard, all the way down to the ditch and the two lane road. Across the river of tarmac, the neighbor bent forward, leaning under the hood to inspect the engine. Something clanged, then clattered on the white concrete driveway.

Ed watched the bolt roll all the way toward the ditch.

  • If you're a paid user, DW allows you to filter out specific tags by other users (for example, my "topic: politics" tag). It's just not easy to find. First you need to make an access filter and put the person on that filter, and then once they are in the filter, click on their name and all their tags will pop up.


    One suggestion would be to make a filter with your entire circle in it, and then just take out the tags you don't want. Then that could be your default view of your circle.
