Good morning, my lovelies! This feels like very straightforward and excellent advice for a Wednesday in early June, when the light is long and warm, and the natural world is doing absolutely everything it can to get your attention.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday. Take care and stay safe. đź’™

I have gone on quite a bit about this one recently. I just think it is wonderful, and by far the best and least mawkishly sentimental work from Richard Curtis, of Love, Actually infamy. It makes me laugh so hard; the perfect awkwardness of Domhnal Gleason against the cute intelligence of Rachel McAdams; the exquisite turn by Bill Nighy as the time travelling father; and every small character and very British nuance in-between – it is such a pleasure. It also makes me cry… a lot! What I like about it is that it feels exactly like being in love. Exactly! There will be regret and pain, but in the end there is that one person that gets you and always will. And that idea… feels good!

"That’s probably my favorite film right now. Drinking Buddies was very inspired by this movie. I just love how it managed to be a real successful mainstream Hollywood comedy but it’s really complicated. The characters in this film are married, they have children, they’re still talking about open sexual relationships, and doing drugs, it just… it feels real to me, is how it feels. I’m very impressed by it, not only for its sense of humor which I think is spot on, but also for its sort of willingness to dip into dramatic elements and to have central characters who are not necessarily likeable all the time, who are, you know, sort of confused and behaving in very human realistic ways."

As somebody who is currently alive and breathing, take this with a grain of salt but: I think this may be the closest thing we have to know what dying feels like. Full-tilt, three hour nonstop mindfuck that features the single scariest piece of horror movie imagery I've ever seen. Went through shades of loving, hating, and being indifferent towards this but ultimately fell head over heels and appreciated everything altogether in retrospect - just needed to experience the whole thing first. Dern is beyond fabulous, only Lynch is capable of cooking up something *this* fully committed to scrambling one's brain. But most importantly of all, it didn't drag for a second. What being way too high feels like without actually being high.

As December settles in and the world feels edged with starlight, it feels like the perfect time to share a story shaped by winter magic and myth. ❄️✨

Whispers and Wings (Brodyr Alarch #6), coming 3rd January 2026, follows Gerallt—marked for twenty-four years by Arianrhod’s blessing of a swan’s wing—and Aderyn, the humble girl who hears the quiet language of geese.

Through lingering shadows, divine bargains, and the echoes of old betrayals, the two must discover whether love, patience, and courage can heal a curse that has lasted a lifetime.

Tell me: what winter release are you most excited for?

Lots of action scenes (1 more)
Very good SFX
Packs a punch
Well one compliment I can give this is it feels more like a Marvel film. Apart from Aquaman, Wonder Woman many DC offerings have not matched the Marvel level. I can't say I've heard of any of the characters before, don't know much of the comics. This feels like a film where you should have already seen some of the characters in another film.
There is a ton of action scenes and plenty of carnage in a fairly straightforward of good vs evil but this time with a God like character who will use violence against the enemy.
It's a very enjoyable film overall if not anything ground breaking in the superhero collection.
