Have people been watching WandaVision? Isn't it fun and weird and genrebendy? Don't you have no idea whatsoever where they're going with it? Aren't you glad to be going along for the ride anyway?
I also watched Space Sweepers, the new Korean space adventure movie, this weekend on Netflix and I really enjoyed it. I loved the playful way it treated physics, with utterly nonsensical rule-of-cool space harpoon battles that were glorious. I loved the ensemble cast of badass losers bound together by their desperation, and them gradually falling in love with each other but refusing to admit it. I loved the way it took parenthood in difficult circumstances seriously. And I really loved the playful ways it used language and pidgin in particular to speak of the joyous complexity of a multicultural future where people have to constantly be aware of where they are and who they're talking to.
