So Much Content
We have had a bunch of time to watch new things lately. I expect this will continue for most of 2021 as well.
Mandalorian - Season 2
Continues to be a great show that does an amazing job of giving us more Star Wars.
The Expanse - Season 5
Another great season so far. I really need to read these books.
Soul
The latest Pixar film. So happy we were able to watch this at home on Disney+. I loved it and I can't wait to watch it again.
Wonder Woman 1984
Not as good as the first movie, and not great, but fun and worth the time.
The Midnight Sky
Netflix original Sci Fi. I really enjoyed this one.
Upload
Sci Fi Comedy Series on Amazon Prime. I enjoyed this, it was fun.
Breach
Ugh! I want this time back. It was a real stinker. I thought, oh look Bruce Willis. Man I bet he regrets this.
His Dark Materials
Second season was better than the first.
Limited Edition Blade Runner Details
Wow, look at all the extras included in the Blade Runner: Ultimate Collectors Edition.
Fun? at the movies.
We saw the new Harry Potter movie this weekend. Wow, great movie. As a purist there were a few things that I don't think they should have changed. However, they did a really good job with the story, lots of magic, and lots of fun.
Why do parents insist on taking children to movies when they know they are too young to keep silent during the movie. Please be considerate and stay home.
The final Harry Potter book comes out this weekend. We are only getting one copy of the book. I have to read it quickly so that Lisa isn't suffering for too long. I have only been this crazy for one other series, The Chronicles of Amber by Roger Zalazney.
Mirrormask
There is a new movie out that I have heard very little about called Mirrormask. It's written by Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean. The special effects and characters are by Henson Studios. Those names alone make it worth seeing. Hope I get to see it.
This weekend
We went to the opening weekend of the Carolina Renaissance Festival It was pretty much the same as last year. I think they need to do something different with it each year, we are starting to get bored with it.
We saw Corpse Bride. It was a little too short, and it suffers from being in the shadow of Nightmare before Christmas. It was enjoyable, but it just doesn't have the charm of Nightmare.
We also saw Serenity and it was awesome. It does a great job of finishing the story that was started in the series. I really hope it does well, a sequel would be very cool.
Kill Bill... 2
We went to see Kill Bill 2 today. I liked it.
Stuff
Got a great Polymer Clay book Creating Fantasy Polymer Clay Characters by Dinko Tilov . If you are interested in fantasy characters you should check it out.
The Matrix Revolutions comes out today. Gonna pick my copy up on the way home from work.
Hope to see Hellboy tonight or tommorrow. Looks like its going to be a fun movie.

When single shines the triple sun, what was sundered and undone shall be whole, the two made one, by Gelfling hand or else by none.
Movies:
-
- I watched this last night on the computer while I worked on a new polymer clay project. What a wonderfull movie. I have seen it at least a dozen times but I still enjoy it.

- Alot of people think this was a major flop. I have always thought this movie was great - It does a great job of capturing the old Popeye cartoons in a fun live action movie.
