While things are getting better a lot of things are still a trainwreck on my end.
While my cat has responded to the thyroid medication, she can’t take it as a pill which is the prime reason for all of her side effects (including being vomity as all hell)
So the mighty 15 year old furball is going to be getting a topical gel in her ears, and is on anti-nausea medication and a reduced dose of the pills until she can get on the gel.
That’s one thing that’s getting better…on the other hand, the day after I posted my message about things going on pause, an elderly family member banged themselves up in a fall and is still recovering.
So we are still in wait and see mode over here. When we know more, you’ll know more. π
And then there’s the bit where the “friendship” with his mentor is shown only with a single line of dialogue while the rest of the movie has them verbally sniping at one another…
I have no idea if we’re talking about a specific movie here or movies in general, but my litmus test has always been – if you can watch the movie with the sound off and not mis any important plot points, they probably bought the script at Costco, on sale. Special effects are cool and I love a good action movie, but a well structured plot with developed characters are going to make ANY movie better. This is something completely foreign to hacks like Jar-Jar Abrams.
There are several classic films that don’t NEED dialog to be moving and entertaining, but that’s intentional on the part of the director.
