Good evening chat. I just wanted to write about some things I've been watching recently that I've been enjoying along with some life shenanigans.
I haven't been watching much new stuff, but I have been rewatching some old movies that I enjoy! Yesterday bf and I set up the DVD player for the first time since we moved in together, and we cracked open my old Napoleon Dynamite DVD! It was really fun, and it was Laika's first time watching it so that was cool! WE also watched The Mask which is always a banger.
Today we're watching A Goofy Movie & rewatched Look Back with a friend! Even though we were watching Look Back on a streaming site that wasn't really the best audio wise, the movie was still really good, though I learned that I do prefer the sub over the dub LOL. It's Laika's first time watching A Goofy Movie, and it's so fun. I love introducing him to new movies.
I also figured I should put some of my thoughts on Peacemaker season 2 here, since we just got caught up on that. It's... alright. It's a bummer, because I truly believed I would love it more, but it's honestly a bit of a flop so far. (emphasis on "so far") I just feel like so many characters are either completely different (in a bad way) or sidelined really bad in comparison to season 1. Like, for example, my fav character Vigilante just suddenly became reduced to a stereotypical autistic guy, when I feel like previously he definitely had autistic traits, just not in this way. It's like they flandarized his character and reduced him to a silly comedic relief guy, when I feel like there was so much more to him. And Adebayo as well, like, yes I do believe she would be different after the events of season 1, of course, but I think it'd crazy how little regard she has for Keya, especially when she did so much for her in season 1. I fail to believe she would get so wrapped up in this failing line of work when it ruined her marriage, especially when that was the one thing she was so adamant about protecting in season 1. And all of a sudden Harcourt is just a lvoe interest for Peacemaker? And Peacemaker is coming off, like, SUUUPER weird? Like, I dunno, I definitely realize he had a weird one sided pining thing for her in season 1, but it was barely emphasized this much, and I honestly thought it was a one off joke!
But whatever, we're still gonna give the rest of this season a chance, but it definitely isn't stacking up to the first at all, and I'm frankly baffled by people who think otherwise.
Anywho, to end it off, my life's been relatively slow. About to get a new coworker which is... Exhausting. I hate training, and I'm just gonna have to go through another like, month of training a new person, which is so exhausting, and on top of that my arthritis is kicking my ass! I've been needing t use my cane again which is a big L to my mental, but it's ultimately just a me thing.
I hope everyone's having a good week so far!
