My favourite detective shows/films are where the lead is kind of an all around terrible or at least sub par detective because I feel represented.

Cool how business ghouls are just all Mr Burns now and the media is framing them as motivational success stories.

The term ‘Blade Runner’ was first used in a completely different context in a 1974 sci fi novel by Alan E Nourse and then by William S Burroughs in a script treatment of the novel, later converted into a novella and then Ridley Scott bought the rights to use as the title for Blade Runner (1982).

It dabbles in sensationalism and doesn’t really make a strong conclusion based on what it presents but if you want a 700 page list of the CIA consistently fucking up since 1947, read Tim Weiner’s book.

I kind of love how Zoe Kravitz translated Rob’s music elitism into more genuine passion that other people have a hard time getting on her level whereas the Novel Rob and Cusack just (intentionally) seem like self absorbed dicks.

#NowWatching: The idea of Hitchcock making an espionage film set on the verge of WW2 in 1940 sounds amazing.

Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes, violently it changes
Oh no, there is no turnin' back now
You've woken up the demon in me
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
When suddenly it changes, violently it changes
Oh no, there is no turnin' back now

This reminds me of my favourite Batman comic and Dave McKean’s decision to depict Batman as this almost 1D silhouette with a lack of features (until the ending). If Grant Morrison’s idea is that this comic is Batman’s dream, than it’s interesting this is how Batman sees himself in his subconscious.

Also, one of my favourite books in one of my favourite sci fi series (The Culture by Iain Banks) is about if a character like Garak has any semblance of humanity after everything he’s done. So I guess it’s an archetype I find interesting.

Basically anytime there’s a win in the Dominion War storyline of Deep Space Nine or just anytime when Garak gets sassy.

For a class, I once made a superhero basically exactly like Batman but for owls and I was unaware the Crime Syndicate Owlman was a thing and this was pre-Scott Snyder creating the Court of Owls.

I’m way more familiar with Argento and Fulci’s era but I do love Elio Petri’s A Quiet Place in the Country (1968). It is definitely the precursor to films like AntiChrist and Die My Love and even aspects flow into Rosemary’s Baby and Possession.

His follow up is also really fantastic about him processing being raped and robbed in a non linear narrative. But that’s obviously more tread lightly territory.

Édouard Louis is my favourite current French writer. His first book is about growing up queer and working class in a rural part (like the Le Pen voting demographic part) of France.
