Day 16. A film with a number in the title.

Because someone has to teach the dogs Shakespeare.
Still from THE NINTH CONFIGURATION (1980) Lt. Reno (Jason Miller) stands behind a table on which is sitting a little white Havenese or Puli dog (I think?) Lt. Spinell (Joe Spinell - again, I think?) sits next to them, his hand on his cheek looking bored. They are both wearing army greens.

"Just one more thing Albert. I have the feeling the killer will strike again, I'm not sure where or when. She's a high school girl, got a drug problem, she's cryin' out for help."
An hilarious meme that is the poster for TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME, but instead of Laura Palmer it's a picture of Peter Falk as Columbo and it's called: PETER FALK WITH ME.

Day 14. Your favourite film from your least favourite genre.

Biopics. This is also one of the best films about undiagnosed autism.
Also - Captain Foot Fetish can go fuck himself.

For someone who loves lists and cataloguing, I don't keep up with my Letterboxd enough. Unless I'm working on something, in which case, 3 of these people were expected. But I feel that, like the yearly 'wraps' for streaming sites, they seem to discount the first half of the year.
Screenshot of my 2025 Letterboxd stats of most-watched actors. 1. Isabelle Adjani, 2. Nastassja Kinski, 3. Ralph Ineson, 4. Howard Vernon, 5. Udo Kier, 6. Patrick Magee, 7. Joe Dallesandro, 8. Michel Galabru, 9. Christopher Lee, 10. Stuart Hughes.

Thank you so much, YouTube Music 2025 recap bot. I was dying to know what a cowboy would say about my music taste. I can die happy now I finally understand myself.

“Howdy partner, I’ve heard tell ‘round these parts of some kinda Butlerian Jihad…”
Screen cap of the YouTube Music AI talking to me like a fucking cowboy. It says: “Well I’ll be, this here listenin’ is a real stampede! It’s got the heavy, chuggin’ metal of Ghost and Green Lung ridin’ herd, then the trail turns misty with Florence and the Machine and Lana del Rey. It’s wilder than a snake in a boot!’

Any of those worm movies, I don’t care, this is just one of the best stills ever.

Post your favorite "Lord of the Rings" character. Wrong answers only.

Day 5: A film you think is underrated.

Tom Turtleneck was my dad’s favourite and he loved The Norman Conquests. I’m currently watching all the things he recommended that I never got around to. He used to say ‘dandelion’ in a French accent. I do too. I found the origin. 🥲

Just watched ECLIPSE.

I love Tom Conti and his lifelong committment to wearing a turtleneck.

Black and white photo of Tom Conti circa 1970s wearing a light coloured turtleneck under some kind of parka.

Day 2: a film you watched over and over again as a child.

Sure did love that little dancing scrote.
The Puckmarin, the alien from FLIGHT OF THE NAVIGATOR (1986). Fleshy little creature, fits in palm of the hand, big green eyes. Looks like Babu Frick's more penile cousin.

I told myself I wasn't going to do any more of these, but I've got the morbs and shouting: 'Look at this thing what I like!' Into the ether is comforting. Tweaking the prompts I've already done.

Day 1: The LAST film you saw at the cinema. Been a while.
30 day movie challenge prompts Still from WEAPONS (2025) Silhouette of a child running across a street at night with their arms stretched out by their sides.

Bloody finally. THANK YOU.

It will be pretty funny if I don’t like it after all the Franken-pining I’ve been doing. In retrospect, that is. In the moment I’ll definitely make a massive to-do about it all and break something.
Photo of my tv screen showing Frankenstein is up on Netflix.

What are your Top 4 rock songs from the year you were born?
Cover of the single Sat in Your Lap by Kate Bush. She is sitting on the ground in a white tutu with a dunce cap on her head, holding a purple and silver globe in her hand. Streaming screenshot of the album ‘Strawberries’ by The Damned, currently playing the song ‘The Dog’. There’s a pig on the cover with a little strawberry on its head. Cover of ‘Under Pressure’ by Queen and David Bowie. The cover features Freddy Mercury performing live in a yellow jacket, and the three other band members pictured below. Cover of the album ‘Screaming for Vengeance’ by Judas Priest. I mean to highlight the title track. The cover features a large iron eagle flying in front of a red sun.
