Haha. Good.

It always suggests me the same WhatsApp contacts I have never spoken too and a couple of group chats that are ancient. I seem to remember it working a long time ago

Does The Batman count? Or is that emo? Please don’t hate me, I’m an old man.

God hates them?

I really enjoyed Monkey Man, Late Night With The Devil, The Blackening, Poor Things and the Whale. That’s just off the top of my head.

I know they aren’t really blockbusters by any stretch, but it’s rare to get a blockbuster that is also a non slop movie. These are all films that showed on my local cinema though, and they were all great. I hate cape shit and avoid most slop, except the odd guilty pleasure. To be honest I thought the Dune adaptation was really good and that was rather popular. So add that to my slop wall.

I have my girlfriend to thank for dragging me out to see these films and it has made me realise that I was being rather snobbish in the past. There’s a lot of good stuff out there if you just go out and watch it. You won’t always be amazed but you’ll be surprised what you do end up liking.

Old man yells at cloud.

I agree that there is a lot of slop out there, but there always has been. There are still plenty of classics being produced.

A lot of this seems to be incoherent grumbling.

Did a kangaroo kick you in the head, or were you born this stupid?

I hope he does something Vs I think we should do something

It’s a pretty straight forward distinction if you understand words

Please flop

I entirely thought that was the point of the title

As I’ve grown older I’ve consistently proved to myself that if I keep at something I do get better at that thing, even if it’s a slow process. It’s tough, but long term goals, and persistence does pay off.

As for ten thousand hours, my advice would be don’t count hours, and learn to enjoy the process of learning.
