Feb. 9, 2024 Roundup (Patreon)

I've moved into a new place, and it's basically perfect. I'm in Rochester, New York, which has lots of movie theaters and media outlets, so I might be focusing more on local stuff and film for a while. Tonight I'm seeing Do the Right Thing at the Dryden Theater, so expect a write-up of that tomorrow.

Anyway. American news has been pretty tedious this week, even if Nikki Haley losing Nevada to "literally fucking nobody" is funny as hell. I've been watching more TV news lately (since I got a television at last), and man, some of this shit is boring. Am I supposed to care that Joe Biden was caught at a press conference being 81 years old? I'm a lot more concerned about Netanyahu continuing this genocidal war in Gaza, or the 122 dead journalists. Let's focus on bullshit that matters.

Also, take a look at this horrifying story  about how Warner Bros executives axed Coyote vs. Acme without even watching it.
