I just watched "A Cure for Wellness"

I'm not sure what to say. Visually stunning and the first half really had you trying to figure out the mystery of what was going on. The last abut 30 minutes were let's just say odd.

Sitting in the office. Supposed to be doing a disaster recovery test that was scheduled to start at 3pm. They never bothered to actually test network connectivity to the remote site so here we are sitting waiting to connect to get started.
I guess the 300 meetings we had on this in the last month weren't quite enough.

How many more years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes left? :D

“Crazyhead” on Netflix is what Buffy the Vampire Slayer should have been when made into a tv show from the movie. Except it has demons, not vampires.

Home from the Iowa Wolves game. They were playing the team Niang plays for, Santa Clara. ISU colors everywhere. Walked up and got tickets before the game and got 8 row behind the Santa Clara bench. Niang played well double digits in points, but Iowa won. I think Niang may miss his flight with all the people that stayed after for autographs.

The movie Atomic Blond rocks, literally. I'd watch again just to listen to the awesome music. This needs to watched with a good sound system.

Oh, and I got fooled by the ending.

Article on the music

From David Bowie’s “Cat People (Putting Out Fire)” to The Clash’s “London Calling” to the song that gave Houlihan instant cold sweats, George Michael’s “Father Figure,” the music doesn’t just suck the audience into the era the story is set in, but also heightens everything that happens on screen.
