Films and Things
May. 2nd, 2020 12:35 am* For anyone who's free, there's a Sunday matinee movie in the VidUKon channel of the vidding discord at 2pm BST/3pm CET - most probably Sneakers, but possibly the Dolph Lundgren version of the Punisher, depending on how the quest for source goes. ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
jb_slasher has organised a Star Wars rewatch as well in the same channel - when they've posted, I'll link across to it, but it starts with Rogue One, about which I have quite a lot of feelings...
* On Weds evening, I've started watching the Mandalorin, withgoodbyebird and others, depending on who's available. I've been through the first two episodes, and I'm honestly never going to get tired of baby Yoda, and anyone who tries to tell me not to refer to baby Yoda as baby Yoda clearly has no sense of mood or fun.
* Rewatching the first Terminator movie again tonight was definitely a good choice. I'm really enjoying having a fluctuating group of people to watch movies with, and it was interesting to see Terminator again, having watched it a lot when I was younger but not for some years. The soundtrack definitely sticks with you...
* I was hoping I'd have my VidUkon premiere finished tonight, but after working through another iteration (my 7th I thought was worth trying to render, it seems) I spotted yet another ghost frame and two clips that are too similar and too close together, so that'll be another draft to work through tomorrow. Then I've got to work out what to name it and how to add credits, so it's just a horrow show from start to finish.
*yourlibrarian was playing a band game earlier this week, and I thought it'd be fun to join in; yourlibrarian's letter was "F", and the first band that sprang to mind was one I don't think I'd ever listened to - Five Finger Death Punch. So, if you fancy playing:
• Name a BAND (NOT a song, NOT a solo performer) that starts with the letter “S”.
• Please don’t Google one, just use your brain.
• I'll then give you a letter for you to REPOST.
* JapanToday has a recipe posted up online for How to Make Disney's Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana French Toast at Home and for all that it sounds a bit too healthy, what with having bananas in it, I'm almost tempted to try...
* This will make no sense to anyone, but I'm oddly proud that I managed to achieve three tiny milestones in Warframe over the last couple of days; I closed enough thermal vents in the Orb Vallis to earn my Opticor Vandal, completed enough Balor Famorian missions to convince the RNG to let me build an Imperator Vandal, and completed the quest that lets me build some big senient gun. I've been pottering away at those since I started playing, around 400 days ago, so it's nice to be able to tick those off the list of things to do in-game. My favourite is still my Mab-themed Titania Prime frame; maybe not the best or most powerful frame out there, but tiny and fierce.
