Feels like I’m committing some kind of crime, but the rules are the rules.

Found this in a charity store freebies bin. Exactly the right price.
Curious about the redundant addition of “The Movie” to the title.
And, whew, they sure did struggle for a remotely positive sounding box quote, huh?

Now, I’m not a super audiophile speaker fan.
I picked up these Cambridge Minx 12 speakers with the intention to be sticking them on the ceiling for that deluxe positional audio for movies.
Set them up to make sure they work and, dang! Paired with a subwoofer, these sound great for 3” cubes.

Back in the day, my associates used a slang term similar to the modern parlance “cringe”
If someone or something was embarrassing, they’d be referred to as a “riddy”
Anyway.
Picked up some movies, including Riddy Player One.

The best audio gear comes in anime girl tins.
(Don’t quote me on that)
(Wanted a small, cheap DAC to clean up the audio on a little Linux computer. Works great!)

Here we go. First true test for the tiddlers 🥶
Bought a bubbler to help prevent parts of the surface freezing. Glad that worked out.
Shall see how they look once things defrost.

After a while of using a very sensible hi-fi subwoofer for my home theatre set up, i finally got the chunky gut rumbler sub back from being serviced.
Does it jiggle? Does it stink? 😤

I swear, if the tiddlers make it through the winter, I'm upgrading the water outlet hose and buying them a fancy waterfall.
Got my eye on this one where you can put pond plants in it for extra filtration and greenery 🌱👀

All my worrying and, a few warm days later, the fish are up and about.
The forecast is for a mild week and the water has been above the food cut-off point for a couple days now.
I hope it’s not a problem to give them something to eat 😅

Got it in my head I needed to get the rest of the fancy collectors sets of John Carpenter movies.
So, now the set is complete!
Each comes with the movie in 4K, HD, making of bonus disk, poster, postcards, production booklet and soundtrack CD.
Oh! And In the Mouth of Madness is here as well.

Alright. A photo with all five tiddlers.
You can see Sad/Sleepy in the centre, between Chocolate Brownie and Splodge. Just a tail sticking out of some undergrowth right at the bottom. 👀

I usually have overall positive feelings about movies, even the scruffier ones.
But Spawn really tried my patience.
Pains me to say that, despite the great look and vibes, the film on the whole kinda sucks in a not enjoyable kind of way.
The CGI is awesome, though.

Today in “I swear I’m not bad to these fish. They’re just being quirky”
Why would a fish sit in the shallow end and stare at a wall?
I hope I don’t have to worry myself about depressed goldfish 😭

Been a moment since I worried about the fish.
Need to get some advice on how to wind down the pond for autumn and winter. Online, it’s lots of vague advice. Like, expecting me to somehow intuitively know when to stop feeding the fish. 😩
Anyway, the view from my window, plus wagtails 🐦

It was almost imperceptible, the slow introduction of critically maligned 90s/00s blockbuster genre fare in to the Arrow catalog. Now they make up the bulk of new releases 👀
But, as I said about Clash of the Titans box set: put the rainbow on any movie and it becomes worthy of reassessment.

Bought some Criterion Collection movies. There’s more I want to get.
Been filled with the urge to become an insufferable cinephile.

Checking the new OG Fortnite pass and... gasp!
Sad he's wearing a vest, depriving us of abs. But I'm always up for taking a werewolf.
You heard me.

Slowed down shakey footage. But that looks like a goldie babu to me.
There’s a few more hanging about, but they’re hard to film.

Instead of having three CD players that each did one thing well, why not one player that does it all?
No support for hi-res / surround sound CD formats, but it does read the TOC quickly, have working optical and, my favourite, CD Text 😩✨ 💿
