instead of watching the oscars, I'm on the way to see natalie portman in her new movie annihilation (2018). very excited. will update this post in a few hours with what I think about it (I'm expected to be absolutely wow'd, especially by the acting performances).

update: impressive visuals, a story that feels both dreamy and nightmarish, and an incredible Oscar worthy acting performance on top of that? wow. you'll regret not seeing this one on the silver screen. I think I am going to have some strange dreams tonight, to say the least. will update this post if I do.

update 2: I definitely had 3 different really weird dreams but now I've waited way too long and I can't remember a single one of them. it's like I stepped through the shimmer and had my mind refracted... and now can't remember, ha ha! I will try thinking about it a lot tonight before sleeping and maybe I'll have them again so I can share them.

another update: just wanted to pop in to say that I didn't have the dreams again even though I tried thinking about annihilation (2018) before I went to bed. so maybe I'll just have to watch it again and see if I can have the dreams that way. or I could try watching the trailer and see if that does anything. worst case scenario I think it is going to be out on netflix pretty soon, which is an absolutely terrible way to see movies... let's just say you get what you pay for. there's a reason that studios release movies in theaters (hint: it's good for business). look at what annihilation (2018) has pulled in already: $21,146,173 - according to boxofficemojo.com (whathey keep good stats just a heads up.) it takes netflix hundreds of movies to bring in those numbers. this is actually something very worthy of a deeper look on the business side. I might write up a post on this in the near future.

WOW! How were the dreams? ;)
ReplyDeleteha ha, they were totally wild. all I can remember is a secret process running on a computer that was stealing data and power when the computer wasn't being used. wish I could share more! sounds like the premise for a cool movie...
