  1. @Starcade It's hard for me to come up with a list of movies that I "hate" or that are my "least favorites" because I usually pre-select them out so that I do not end up watching any such movies.

    For me, the list would be :movies that I started to watch but couldn't finish" (which are movies that I usually turn off w/in the 1st 10-15 minutes).

    Off the top of my head these are a few of them:

    1) #GrandBudapestHotel (2014)
    2) #InBruges (2008) not sure I could watch #Banshees but not this one.
    3) #Her (2013)
    4) #AfterYang (2021)
    5) #HomeAlone (1990)
    6) #OBrotherWhereArtThou (2000)
    7) #MenWhoStareAtGoats (2009)
    8) #TheTerminal (2004)
    9) #TicketToParadise (2022)
    10) #BillyMadison (1995)

    It's no surprise that certain actors are featured in more than one of these but that doesn't mean I don't like other movies of theirs.

    There is also a long list of movies that I like (or at least don't hate) that I've seen & rewatched in their entirely many times over. 🤷‍♂️

    There's no accounting for "taste." 😉

  5. Do y'all do #MusicWomenWednesday here on the Wafrns? I feel like it's mostly a Mastodon thing, not even Bluesky, but I really don't need an excuse to talk about my favorite lady musicians…

    1) Jennifer Rannells - "Distance"
    I discovered & fell in love with this album (released in 2002) as a young teen back when you could still discover music on CDBaby by searching for "influences" and "sounds like" and such (the same feature I miss from MySpace!) and it's really one of my most enduring best-loved albums. I just adore the flowing, intricate piano and her lyrics are insidiously evocative and her voice is enchanting.

    2) "Obligatory" self-promo… 🤪 ("Didn't Leave Nobody but the Baby" from O Brother Where Art Thou?)
    Recorded this with the assistance of my trusty TC-Helicon VoiceLive Touch. There's only two vocal tracks; the harmonies are all generated electronically in real time as I'm singing.

  11. Probably one of the best music movies ever made
    It is so lovingly researched, these 1000 little hints that you can only recognize if you know a bit about music from Dixie. But the public has also had a lot of fun with it.
