Good morning. 🎥🎞️🍿

25 February 2026

I’m running behind this morning. I actually have to leave the house twice today — once to take Charlie to his annual appointment and once to swing by the pharmacy for myself. That alone will probably add ten miles to my odometer. I’ve said it before: I don’t get out much.

I skipped the SOTU last night because I already knew the gist of it. Instead, I opted for something far more cultured and refined: Anaconda — the 2025 version with Jack Black, Paul Rudd, Steve Zahn, and Thandiwe Newton. Naturally, it features a very large snake. It’s mostly a comedy, not quite slapstick but definitely leaning in that direction. My favorite moment was Jack Black sprinting through the jungle with a “dead” wild pig strapped to his back while a giant snake chased him. The backstory makes the scene even funnier, but you’ll have to watch it yourself to get the full effect. And yes, the pig was a prop — no animals were harmed.

Lately I’ve been wondering how the movie theater business is holding up. Between the COVID shutdowns and the rise of streaming, you’d think it would be struggling. But who knows — just because we haven’t gone doesn’t mean others aren’t heading out simply for the sake of getting out. Our local theater sells monthly subscriptions that let you watch any movie you want, and they still sell individual tickets too. I do wonder how they manage seating these days. Maybe it’s just not an issue anymore. Perhaps the era of sold‑out theaters has quietly passed.

I refuse to go to an Alamo Drafthouse cinema again until this awful policy is reversed.
