As a Jessica Alba fan I have of course seen The Eye, a thriller from a while back (2008). But iMDB alerted me to a small role that Chloë Grace Moretz also plays in this film. This means that without knowing it, I had already seen Chloë even before Kick Ass, which I thought was where I saw her first. Checking it out now, with this extra information.
This "you won't believe her eyes" tagline... very funny. I'll be remembering that along with the "fuller" line out of Dark Angel... no further comment.

Happy Birthday @ChloeGMoretz !
I'm celebrating her 25th birthday by rewatching her amazing performance in The Miseducation of Cameron Post. May I also recommend the other films I saw recently, Shadow in the Cloud and Mother/Android? Or her million other films.

We need nuclear fusion to be viable and we need it now.
Looks like there are two more steps:
- The next research reactor (ITER) needs to break even
- Commercial reactors generate more electricity than they use

I recently read the Oscars eligibility rules and tried to understand them. I was surprised any film is eligible to be voted for at all. Released outside LA first? Not eligible. Less then three screenings in a theater per day for the first week? Not eligible. Released on streaming? Not eligible. All kinds of exceptions for festivals and covid-related streaming versions of those, but still.
E.g. The Fallout won SXSW 2021, lot of Oscars chatter around it, but it is not on the list of eligible films of this year. It came out on HBO Max in 2022, which probably means it is not eligible next year either. I may have tried to understand the rules, I didn't say I succeeded.

Giving myself a treat and watching Jenna Ortega in The Babysitter: Killer Queen. I really liked that film and Jenna is so good in it (as always).
Rewatching UnREAL with the seasons a bit out of order, but I can still see that Shiri Appleby is amazing. And she directs some of the episodes as well!
Most people watch her in UnREAL because they liked her in Life Unexpected or Roswell, but I saw and liked her even earlier as the rather lively character Tara in Xena.
Shiri Appleby - IMDb
Shiri Appleby, Actress: The Thirteenth Floor. Shiri Appleby was born in Los Angeles, California, on December 7, 1978, to Dina (Bouader), a Hebrew School teacher, and Jerry Appleby, a telecommunications executive. She has a brother, Evan.Shiri Appleby (IMDb)
chmod.sh script as well when creating the archive. Can you provide your script so I can double-check if I'm missing something?
Jenna Ortega being in the top ten films only twice is because she only has two films out at the moment.

examinator: I don't think that's how it works
Oh wow, next up is the episode with Jennifer Sky and Melody Perkins! I missed them... (6x04 The Power of Three Blondes)
I regularly think about the writings of Jennifer Sky about her experiences as an underage model (aka a model) in the fashion industry. Very eye-opening. Especially the one where she compares her first acting job on Xena with the expectations she took from years of modelling, and the one about her time modelling in Tokyo under the so called protection of the agency which was more the opposite and seemed to instead feed the models to the predators.

Sci-fi time travel stories where everything is different, better in some important ways; worse in others.
It's all muffled in the eyes of the traveler as they lament their lost remembered past; the sacrifice they paid to change the world.
Each time it was mentioned that covid was becoming endemic I didn't understand why this was supposed to be a good thing. Accepting that the virus kept circulating surely meant accepting that people kept dying? Turns out I'm not the one who was misunderstanding it. A quote from nature:
"There is a widespread, rosy misconception that viruses evolve over time to become more benign. This is not the case: there is no predestined evolutionary outcome for a virus to become more benign, especially ones, such as SARS-CoV-2, in which most transmission happens before the virus causes severe disease."

I recently heard another quote about endemicity that changed my perspective on it. It goes something like this:
"People think that COVID being endemic means we can stop thinking about it, when really it just means we have to think about it all the time."
Agreed it's not a good outcome, but it was probably inevitable.
Years ago I travelled by train across the country to get to the nearest cinema that showed a film I wanted to see. In that cinema I was the only one there, it felt like it would have been easier to bring the reels to my city instead.
Today I went by train to the cinema again, but this time it was only a few minutes ride and there were other people there.

Wow that was a buzz.
Also years since I've been in a cinema. Lots of distance between people, even more than required.
I really liked the film itself as well. I can't really mention it, but there are some things in films that should be 'do it, don't just say it' and this film does that right. Jenna mentioned that it was an intelligent script and I see what she means.
THE FALLOUT is now streaming on @hbomax.Thank you to writer/director Megan Park, the wonderful cast and crew who handled this film with care, and for all those who decide to watch. Special thanks to Vada.
