We -- Carrie and I, our pseudo-daughter Megann, and Megann's live-in girlfriend Stephanie -- have been revisiting the LOTR trilogy (extended editions) too. We only have a brief window each night -- between when the toddler goes to sleep and when the rest of us go to sleep -- so it took us three nights to get through Fellowship. It's been a week since then, but we haven't gotten to Two Towers yet because the girls are always off on their own playing the Switch. I'd like to get back to it soon, it's been fun. Also, Two Towers is my favorite.

The fellowship is breaking. It has already begun.

Extended...had to put it on hold for today because I actually had work to do! But tomorrow, it's on.

I feel like I should be watching more movies during quarantine, but my wife and I seem to be focused on binging through Love is Blind and Schitt's Creek instead. I have fit in these over the past three weeks or so:

Ocean's 11
Ocean's 12
Ocean's 13
Ocean's 8
The Godfather
The Godfather Part II
Rounders

One of us! One of us! You should know that my opinion of you rests on your response to this one. I'm only half-joking.

My alone time lately has been spent binging "The Deuce", and most of my time with Carrie we've been switching between "Doctor Who" and "Masterchef Professionals". So here's what's STILL left from my previous posts:

Some stuff I've got lined up:




and that's not including all the rewatches (still have like 2/3 of that Bergman box to get through...)

Even though I've barely made a dent in the last batch of stuff I posted, I lined up a bunch more from my watchlist. This ought to keep me busy for a while.




(those last three are Vidheyan, Rent-a-Cat, and Ohikkoshi)

On top of all that, Bergman's Rabies and The Misanthrope finally have subtitles (which will leave The Bacchae and Don Juan as the only Bergman-directed material I haven't seen), and I've got Extra Ordinary and It Started As a Joke lined up. Think I'm going to try to squeeze in a movie this afternoon.

MT - You talked in another thread about wanting to have The Mirror on Blu-ray. I strongly feel that for The Apple, look forward to your opinion. Rafiki is also one I need to get to.

Actually, I think if I could have any job in the film industry, it would be as a niche distributor of out-of-print and never-in-print foreign films. I'd have to outsource a lot of knowledge, but I'd also buy-up North American rights (if that's how it works) to some films I already love and get to see lots more that are impossible to get to without knowing the dark arts of the internet. Somehow I don't think Shark Tank will fund my effort.  :(
