Musing about Tik Tok


It seems like an absurd joke to me that Tik Tok shut themselves down, practically begging for Vice President Trump's help. Now it seems it's back up and they thank the incoming VP.

I think this post over at Mastodon nailed it.

Love it when journalists provide context when reporting news.

"Mastodon’s announcement comes at a time when the WordPress open-source project and its cofounder have been embroiled in a months-long legal feud, and Meta’s Zuckerberg has made headlines for stripping back Facebook and Instagram’s fact-checking and content moderation before lying about it to Joe Rogan."

Wicked!


We saw Wicked on New Year's Eve in the theater. It was excellent. I read the book years and years ago and liked it. The stage show, meh....I think because I read the book first. So when the film came out I was like, "meh". But everyone said it was good so, what the hell, I'll go. Glad I did! The scope and world of the story translates perfectly to the screen. And they are delving further into the source material (hence the two parts - this two hour, fourty-minute film is essentially what would be Act 1 of the stage production). Both leads are fantastic. Ariana Grande proves her worth as a versatile performer. Erivo is splendid as Elphaba - her "Defying Gravity" transition is a stunningly gorgeous few minutes of acting and filmmaking.

in reply to Helen Jojo Blackforest

We saw it last night, it feels like a worthy rendition to (admittedly very distant in my memory) the first part of the first book as well as spending a lot of time in homage to the musical. Adaptations are never easy to get right, and as I recall the back half of the book had some pacing issues so I'm interested in seeing how they grapple with that. At the same time I hope they don't make the mistake of trying to create a cinematic universe, it's just not something anyone has any appetite for anymore.
