I was in the mood for some 80’s fantasy today, so I watched Barbarians. It certainly isn’t the best fantasy flick from the 80’s, but it was a fun watch.

My second classic 80’s flick of 2026 was Real Genius with Val Kilmer.

Perhaps I will make this the year I run through my Gunter movie list.

I picked Big Trouble in Little China for my first film to watch in 2026. This film turns 40 years old this year.

STRANGER THINGS FINALE SPOILER:

I was quite happy with how things ended with Stranger Things. I mean part of me wanted Mike and Jane to end up together, but it's alright as is.

It seems like it end in a way that could very easy be turned into a movie (or series) focused on only Jane? I like that.

The thing that annoyed me most about season 5 of Stranger Things, is the kids kept describing Will as a sorcerer. The version of D&D they played was AD&D 1e. There was no sorcerer class in first edition. The sorcerer class first appeared in the third edition, which wasn't released until 2000.

While on vacation last summer, we went to see the Kelpies of Scotland. (animated by Grok)

Every year during the holidays I rewatch Lord of the Rings (extended editions.) I just finished Fellowship of the Ring. Such a great film!

Merry Christmas!

Shadow Demon from the 80’s D&D cartoon.

Down another two lbs today to 183. I need to start doing more crunches. Maybe I can finally get that six-pack that I wanted all those years ago when I was in high school. 🤣

After six months of being on Zepbound 7.5 ml, I’m now down to 185 lbs. This marks a total weight loss of 55 lbs over the past year and a half. Now that I’ve passed my goal, I’m switching back to the 5.0 ml dose. #magicpotion

I do love this explanation of extremism, even if it is a bit outdated. The right no longer requires you to hate Russia.

Such a fun tribute to one of my favorite films!
