I won “a date with Tom Cruise” writing contest. A one on one interview during the War of the Worlds press tour. Totally forgot about it and missed the email with the meet-up details at UCLA. So I stood up Tom Cruise.

Saw DEADPOOL 2 yesterday. Just as fun as the first film, with even more heart. Plenty of rousing action but I appreciated the smaller scale feel it had. Refreshing to see a sequel go smaller and focus more on character.

If the intent of the storytellers is to scare you, it's horror. Whether it actually scared you is irrelevant. You can't say something's not a horror movie just because it didn't scare you. If they were hoping to do so and did their damndest but failed, it's still horror IMO.

People who prefer gory horror films typically have low empathy, high sensation seeking, and—among males—a strong bond with the killer.

I loved Doctor Sleep. Everything The Shining isn't. But also a worthy followup. Wears its heart on its sleeve. The True Knot are terrifying creatures. Rose the Hat is a big screen villain I'll remember. I think this film is going to age well and pick up fans in the long run.
