BLOURNAL
Monday morning
So, that’s another weekend done and dusted.
Odds and ends
Yesterday was another beautiful day, so naturally, I’m still taking some sunset photos. I’m usually quite self-critical of my photography skills, but in this case, I’m actually pretty happy with how these turned out. Now, I just need to make sure to add these to my sunsets gallery whenever I get the opportunity.
Mayday
Well, that’s the first day of May done and dusted. I can’t believe that we’re a third of the way into the year already. I previously asked where the time went in a previous “blournal“ entry so it doesn’t bear repeating.
Happy Alien Day
I almost forgot that today is Alien Day. Alas, I’m heading out to the pub for the night, so I won’t get the chance to watch any of the films beforehand, but I might watch the OG film when I get back… preferably with the lights out.
Sinners
I finally got around to seeing Sinners yesterday, and sorry to disappoint anyone who expects me to be a contrarian but yeah, I thought it was bloody brilliant. Possibly my favourite film of the year so far.
April Fools' Day
Yep, it’s that time of year again and nope… I don’t have any jokes. Then again, it’s hard to top the current state of the world, which itself feels like an overly indulgent and drawn-out April Fools joke with no end in sight.
Mickey 17
I saw Mickey 17 last week. I would’ve written about it much sooner but I’ve been struggling to articulate my thoughts on it.
Oscars
So, I stayed up late last night to watch the 97th Academy Awards. I don’t know what the overall consensus for this year’s show is, but I greatly enjoyed it.
No more monkeying around
Lately, life’s been pretty quiet and uneventful, but I did see The Monkey last Friday, and I thought it was an absolute blast.
A Bit of Indulgence in 4K
Last week, I decided to be impulsive and buy Arrow’s recent release of Inglourious Basterds on 4K, while also pre-ordering their upcoming 4K releases of Dressed to Kill and Lifeforce for good measure.
Nosferatu
Just got out of Nosferatu.
It's either my favourite movie of 2025 (so far) or my third favourite movie of 2024.
