Notes on - Evil: 3 Stars

 

Evil – 3 Stars notes

The six types of posseion. Love the training video music

Nice effect on back ripping

I wonder if this is really the catholic breakdown of possession 

Diabolical obsession. Do I have that?

I like that they pointed out that all of them could be psychological

Hey, it’s lionel Luther!

Byron Duke

Kristen geeking out over Duke is adorable

**  “Oh, I would want. That would be great. Yes, Please, Please, Yes.

Six months ago he lost a Tony

Patti just goes to the church

Byron is sweating blood and makes the surroundings colder

Leland is continuing to reverse all of Kristen’s verdicts

A 15 year old kid is going to be sent to jail

Monsigneur – “Well, here’s everyday evil.”

Ooo, clever of Kristen to get to testify about Leland

Byron: There’s a reason Harvey Weinstein went down. I don’t use sex and I’m much more talented

I stand behind two spaces after the period

The 53 rules of dominance

He’s offended that he’s going bald.  His hairplugs are infected and bleeding

Who’s Joe?

Byron is fighting with someone invisible in his office ‘ They know it’s you’

Does the church really do that many exorcisms and are that casual about it?

You didn’t have another vision, you did drugs

Another mention of the 60

Priest: Symbols matter

The symbols talk sounds like MAGA conspiracy theorists

I love the song Lydia the Tatooed Lady

Leland: No, no. do the breasts bigger

Leland isn’t actually there, is he?

So Byron is just personifying his anger

You can tell that the Kings’ background is legal drama

Leland preemptively undercut her testimony.  I love watching the chess match aspect of this

Byron: You are so past your sell-by date, Patti

Byron: Who the Hell are you, lady?

Kristen: Somebody who enjoys your shows but thinks you’re being a bit of a dick.

What the Hell is up with the sheep stool?

Joe: I’m the buyer of souls. And yours only cost a Tony

The way they’re going back and forth between ‘It’s definitely demonic’ and ‘It’s definitely explainable’ is fun and mirrors the back and forth between Kristen and Leland in court

Seriously, what the HELL is up with the sheep stool??

I feel like that when my wi-fi goes out too

Digital Assistant: Hell is 3,400 miles from New York. There are tolls on these routes.

I really expected someone in the café to react

Oh, this is the first time Kristen has been to the church where David lives? That’s weird in hindsight

David’s starting to believe it’s all real

It’s good that they’re having Kristen address with David all of the scandal in the Catholic Church this early on. It’s definitely the elephant in the room

Kristen: It’s just there’s so many things wring with the church

David: That’s why we need good people.

David’s speech about the Marines inspiring him to want to find commitment is a really great moment

They’re handling the mutual attraction with Kristen and David very lightly

Salvator Mundi

Three white dots on Jesus’ snow globe.

I like Ben and his sister

They feel so much like a real brother and sister

The kid’s name is Adam.  That’s a little on the nose

Leland just threatened Kristen’s daughters. That was a mistake

Now Joe is in Ben’s Dad’s speaker

DCVX

So the dots fall on New York, Chicago, and DC

I like that the roman numerals are longitude and latitude.

Leland’s voice isn’t showing up on the recording. Ben says he used a jammer

Sebastian Lewin

Ben can’t recover Leland’s voice, so he and Kristen are going to fake it

I love that Kristen is totally down to cheat if she has to

So the demon soul selling WAS a fake, but he stopped faking it a few days ago.

What language is that

Warren Zevon, Monkey Wash Donkey Rinse

Byron has gotten over being an asshole, apparently

Byron casually jumping to his death in the background is effective

Kristen won by cheating.

Everybody on TV always knows all of Shakespeare by heart

The quote is from The Merchant of Venice

Notes on - Doctor Who: Joy to the World

  Doctor Who – Joy to the World notes. The Queen’s Hotel – Manchester 1940 I quite like Basil and Mrs. Basil Why are we in WWII again? Basil: It’s the end of everything, you know. Everything we hold dear.   Democracy itself will fall. I hate Pumpkin Latte Aren’t those locked doors pretty much always just connecting rooms? Orient Express – Italy – 1962 Do a lot of people read Murder on the Orient Express on the Orient   Express?   Bit on the nose. OK, we’re opening with a montage of the Doctor bursting in on various time periods and places to offer them the same lukewarm toastie and pumpkin Latte.   That’s a pretty clever way to establish the concept of the hotel from the back door, as it were MOTOE is a much thicker book than that.   And she has handwritten pages Base camp – Everest 1953.   Is there only one base camp? Sandringham Hotel – London 2024.   So, time of airing then. I’m not loving Joy’s outfit Apparently the...

Notes on - American Gods: Tears of the Wrath-Bearing Tree

  Tears of the wrath bearing tree notes Eggs with two yolks always freak me out What’s with the boxer walking in and out? Bilquis needs to find ‘the other’ and convince him he isn’t alone? They’re really lening into the fluid in slow motion shots. OK, the wax forming the US was cool.   And a nice visual to introduce the concept of the exact center of the US So who is Shadow’s other?   Laura?   TB?   Wednesday?   We saw all three of them Shadow jiust claimed the ravens as his own. That was a pretty tenuous description for him to recognize Laura from, but then he did know she was headed to kill Wednesday ****   One shock at a time. He’s still Crispin Glover.   I thought he was only supposed to be in one episode this season.   I wonder what the real reason for the casting changes was How did he convince Laura to go the the Gods place? World very carefully told Laura that Shadow was there and then played every reverse psyc...

Notes on - Doctor Who: The Well

  The Well Notes The Doctor and Belinda are trying to get back to 5/24/25 after just one vindicator reading.   That seems optimistic, but it is a good way to remind audience of the basic setup of ‘stop and take readings. Belinda is very methodical and logical. Good skill set for a nurse. Belinda: Have we been invaded? Or hit by a meteor? Or swatted by a giant moth? The Doctor: Oh.   Imagine a moth that big! I love how healthy Belinda’s relationship with her parents is *** I will meet your mum and dad. And I will make your dad laugh. And your mum can whistle at my behind. And I will sing.   I will do the singing. That is a promise. So a second triangulation reading from the vindicator 500,000 years in the future She’s asking good questions and it’s allowing the Doctor to   give his standard ‘humans are awesome’ shtick, but is also very cleverly letting them slip in the required ‘The TARDIS translates’ explanation. OK, I am officially in love w...
