  1. In Kitchen #Court, the poet mounted a #spirited defense of his theft of plums from the icebox, admitting, when pressed, that he understood they were likely intended for someone's breakfast, but arguing that their sweet delicious chill made them irresistible. The jury, all sympathetic to the sensuous allure of a good plum, nevertheless found him guilty of not leaving EVEN ONE for anyone else to enjoy. He agreed to make restitution in the form of ripe strawberries.

  2. “Spirited” has a clever premise, a terrific cast, and big, Broadway-style musical numbers with lots of singers and dancers, in a way that (Wicked notwithstanding) they don’t really make in movies anymore. I love all of that so much that it galls me to criticize it. But structurally it’s a bit of a mess. It needed a sharper edit, and maybe even to lose a story thread. I admit I don’t know which one I’d cut but they’re competing with each other a bit. #movies #spirited

  3. Did a quick random search for a “family Christmas movie” this evening. #AppleTV+ recommended “#Spirited” with Ryan Reynolds/Will Ferrell. Jesus. Got through barely ten minutes of it before we walked. Disrecommended.

  4. Rewatched Spirited. It’s fun, sweet, has cool dance sequences, great cast. 😄🙌🏼 Recommend anytime but especially for the holidays

  5. Well, #Spirited is an awful lot better than I was expecting. That really pulls out all the stops!

  6. Wish me luck. God help me, I’m going to watch #Spirited on TV+. I usually abhor xmas movies (not judging; you do you), but—and this is a personality flaw that I am simultaneously ashamed of and won't apologize for—I cannot resist #RyanReynolds.

    To be honest, I am dreading the inevitable day when he will be revealed to be a [insert no doubt legitimate reason for cancellation]. But until then, RR is my catnip.

  7. Ordinarily I have a low tolerance for Will Ferrell, but wow, Spirited is fun. Would 100% go see the live theater version, especially if it was done (loudly and enthusiastically) by my local community players. #spirited #goodafternoon #movies

  8. Loved #Spirited a heck of a lot more than anticipated.

    Knew going in that it was a musical (a plus for this theater nerd), but still expected the humor to be broad and dumb. Instead, it was specific, smart, and quite earnest—while still knowingly winking at all the musical theater tropes.

    Highly recommend checking it out before you’re done with the holidays.

  9. New holiday movie added to the rotation: #Spirited - Cheesy as f*ck and the singing is questionable at best but the score and ensemble dancing make up for it. And it’s a cute plot based on one my favorites.

  12. OMG, Ryan Reynolds song to the Christmas Trees Growers Association in #Spirited. It pretty much sums up everything that is wrong with everything.

  13. #Musicals are crimes against humanity.

    #WillFerrel has never done a funny thing in his life, and can't sing.

    #AChristmasCarol is not a good story, and its most basic message is that it is fine to be a monster as long as you change before you die.

    But, I am a cisgender white man, so obviously I have a huge man crush on #RyanRenolds so we watched #Spirited last night.
