High School is about to get a makeover when the highly popular dolls with a passion for fashion come to life in their first-ever live-action theatrical debut.

I honestly cannot tell you why I chose this movie to try out the (new to me) Tubi app on my Roku, but this is the movie I chose and man am I happy I did.  Tubi itself is an ok service, but it has several of the problems that I associate with first generation streaming apps: weird movie choices, out of sync audio, ads that run at weird times (and 3 seconds of the previous scene being incorrectly chopped off, then plays after the ad), washed out images, and an UI that’s not terrible but not great.  I look forward to what they end up with in the future though, they seem to be moving the right direction.  One shockingly positive thing I noted was that they ran a commercial for a local mexican that I’ve been to many times, which was surprising on multiple levels, but it was great to see different ads every ad break and not the same one three times in a row.

As for the movie itself, boy howdy was it a humdinger of an experience.  It’s the story of four freshmen in highschool being played by 18-20 year olds, which if you’ve ever met both a 14 year old and an 18 year old, there’s a world of difference, not that it matters in this case because they’re so excited to be a part of this new high school experience.  It’s never addressed, but the school they’re going to has security in nearly every scene, so I can only assume it’s a cesspool of dangerous criminals, something that’s further re-enforced by the thinly veiled Barbi stand in bully, who’s father is the principal of the school.  It’s later revealed that they live in a multistoried mansion on what I can only assume is an expansive piece of real estate, worth several million dollars.  How he affords all this on a high school principal salary can be explained partially by the amount of armed security on the campus, I’m pretty sure he’s getting some sizable kickbacks from the contractors handling the detail.  There’s some odd MTV participation, and while I see no indication they were actually involved in the creation of the movie itself, I guess it’s a buzzworthy name that’s easy to drop to highschoolers. Mixed in with all this is a weird child love story with a younger brother and a much much younger sister, all wrapped up with a song / music video that has absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the movie, either in tone or substance.

This was not a good movie to me, a 38 year old white guy typing out movie reviews from the safety of his couch.

Eighth Grade

Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school-the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year-before she begins high school.

This was an exercise in anxiety and self loathing that was great to experience once, but man I did not know what kind of film I was getting myself into. Was it going to have a sudden twist that would ruin it? It’s directed by that one guy that does a stand up routine that’s completely off the walls in every good way, so maybe it’ll have that twist? Was that the twist? Is there no twist? What’s going to happen when she’s alone?

Such a great film that I suggest you check out, but only if you were a 13 year old at any point in your life.

I turned this on to have something in the background while I moved my office equipment and books out of my office, my plan is to repaint the room and get everything back in. I ended up spending more time watching the movie than moving stuff, ¯(?)/¯.

Batman White Knight

The impossible has happened: The Joker has become…sane. Batman: White Knight follows the man now known as Jack Napier as he embarks on a quest to heal the city he once terrorized. After reconciling with his long-suffering partner, Harley Quinn, he sets in motion a carefully plotted campaign to discredit the one person whom he views as Gotham City’s true enemy: Batman. His crusade exposes a decades-long history of corruption within the Gotham City Police Department and transforms Napier into a city councilman and civic hero. But when the sins of his past return to threaten everything that he has accomplished, the distinctions between savior and destroyer begin to break down for both The Joker and Batman alike-and with them any hope for Gotham’s future. Writer and artist Sean Murphy delivers an extraordinary examination of comics’ greatest antagonists in Batman: White Knight, exploring justice, corruption, activism and the darkest depths of mental illness. Collecting the acclaimed eight-issue miniseries, this stunning graphic novel also marks the debut of the DC Black Label imprint, which features classic DC characters in all-new, standalone stories written and illustrated by world-class authors and artists.

Absolutely fantastic story, I missed it when it was drip fed as single issues, and I’m happy that I was able to read it all at once. The art and the story are on the level of The Dark Knight Returns, it’s that good! There’s some very good twists here with characters that make complete sense, and I really hope they get incorporated back to the DCU, but considering how big of a mess that whole universe is in right now, I’m not holding my breath.

Tallahassee starting to rebuild after Hurricane Michael

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) – Hurricane Michael has come and gone, and now it is time to focus on recovery and clean up.

had a hair cut appointment today that I was surprisingly able to go to, but had to reroute myself several times to get around trees and powerlines in the street.

Tallahassee Police: Treat inoperable lights as 4-way stop, don’t move barricades

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) – When you see a broken traffic light, police stress that you need to treat it as a 4-way stop.

this is a serious problem in my town, too many people thinking that if a light doesn’t work you just slam on the gas peddle, close your eyes, and pray you make it through.

I survived Hurricane Michael

Here’s the latest from my city:

Update as of 6:00pm Thursday

• Began the day with more the 90% without power.
• Thousands of trees are down and have caused widespread damage and blocked roads
• Road clearing has been a priority focus today. All major roads are now passable. Road clearing efforts are now focused on neighborhoods.
• 61% of traffic signals are active and crews continue to deploy backup generators for signals without power. Expect 100% coverage by Friday morning.
• Citizens are still encouraged to stay off of the road tonight.

I’ve survived just fine, several of my neighbors have had trees come down, but it seems like no one has had any serious damage to their property, just 100 year old oaks and 200 foot pine trees falling down all over the place. I went out with my beagle yesterday to survey the damage and it looks like there’s at least 3 different power lines that have to be repaired in my neighborhood alone before I’ll have power again. I have no clue what will need to be done outside of my neighborhood, I’m told that there’s several lines still in the road on the main drag.

As you can see, I’m really roughing it out here. I’m going to venture out later today for some more supplies (beer), but for the moment I’m going to enjoy the cool temperatures and strong coffee.
