I’m not sure. I’ve banned electronic devices for today so we’ve just been outside and reading. We may have to pick it up next weekend with Deep Impact.

I have never seen it, what’s it about?

He awarded points for pets surviving basically. Because that apparently was the only good things about the movies. 😄

Elizabeth Leitman @wxliz.bsky.social · 3d

No. He’s 11. This is his first time seeing these. 😄

He never wanted the dog to die. Last night he only gave Dante’s Peak a 2/10 because the dog didn’t die.

See my update I just posted for his thoughts. 😂

lol when he heard that he said “well ok, they can burn that” 😂

Update: My son gave it a -1 out of 10 because they burned books. Then upgraded it a 1 because the dog lived. 😂

Tonight’s disaster movie is The Day After Tomorrow. And I forgot how awful the Los Angeles tornado scene was. Rolled my eyes so hard they may never be right again. 😂

Doesn’t change OU is playing like 💩

Wow. Mateer has had an awful game. Our defense has gone downhill. That TX touchdown was probably the game winner. This looks more like the OU team I expected this year (my preseason prediction was a 6-6 record).

This OU performance is shameful. Just awful.

Update: I think my son is not a disaster movie fan. He said it’s too stressful. He gave Dante’s Peak a 2/10 and both points were because the dog didn’t die. 😂

We are having a disaster movie marathon during fall break. We started last night with Armageddon (My son gave it a 4/10 because he said drilling on an asteroid wouldn’t work 😂). Tonight we are watching Dante’s Peak. 🌋

And that apparently *would* blow it apart. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

He pointed out that there wouldn’t actually be enough gravity and drilling wouldn’t work. He then went on to explain that you’d want the asteroid to impale itself with giant tungsten spikes, then after it had speared itself, the last spike would have nukes in it that would detonate.

Just finished a book that made me want to throw it across the room and totally crash out. My hats off to authors who can weave stories that cause my emotions to run the gamut from joy to devastation. They are truly magical beings.

That sounds…unpleasant.

They do. But wild spiders also can get pretty large. Either way, it was a larger 8-legged nope.
