I’m off work for a few weeks till my new job starts! Since I’m watching movies as a hobby this year, and since I like having some structure in my freedom:

A brief pause. How is there not an essay out there discussing the similarities between these two directors? A few people have mentioned their similar prolific tendencies, and okay, Miike isn’t out there working in experimental theater, but they’re both making movies about outsiders scraping to get by in an unjust society and at their best, they’re both cynically lyrical. I don’t think Miike was heavily influenced by Fassbinder and as far as I know Miike didn’t ever recalibrate his style after watching a lot of Douglas Sirk, but come on! They’re practically brothers!

Where was I?

Man, when I lay it out like that it’s more being around people than I’m totally stoked about. We will see; the trends are in the right direction around here right now.

In no particular order:

  • Bainbridge Island (Streamliner Diner, Poulsbo and viking cups)
  • Goofy train rides in Snoqualmie
  • Ape Caves & maybe staring into the crater of Mount St. Helens
  • Poke my nose into Cougar Mountain
  • Big Four Ice Caves
