Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 27/09/2026It’s a bright sunny day so what better way to spend it than sitting in the dark watching old movies? Bonus: this double feature includes appearances by the Nicholas Brothers. 0180
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 27/09/2026This is at least my 30th time and I’m just as excited as the first show back in 1991. 2170
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 23/09/2026A short book that I read way too quickly because it was so enjoyable. One of my favorites of the Maigret series so far. 030
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Double Feature this weekend: first was Runner (not to be confused with The Runner) at a theater about to close and I’m feeling nostalgic because I was here opening day in 1985… and even before then when it used to be a Drive In. 1260
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 21/09/2026At least once a week I think back to my 8th grade history class where we saw a WWII video that included a speech by Hitler. We were bewildered why his audience adored this buffoon and our teacher assured us that he was very charismatic if only we understood German. I hate how much I know that’s B.S. 092
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Read my first (and probably last) Trollope novel. I expected more considering its mammoth length, but at least it satiated my longing for a Victorian novel. And after lugging this around for a couple months I can finally stop singing to myself “So ask yourself now…” 380
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Seated for what I HOPE will be a good movie, especially since it’s almost 3 hours long. 1190
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Went to a friend’s birthday party in San Francisco this evening and miraculously it was 30 minutes before someone wanted to talk about AI. I would have bet all my money that it would be less than 20. 0111
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Boooooo!!!! Well, I guess I’ll be more motivated to enjoy the current/final season.bbc.comDrag Race UK: BBC drops Ru Paul show after eight seriesFuture series will no longer be broadcast on BBC Three as the show moves to a streaming platform owned by its production company. 050
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Coyote vs Acme is a lot of fun and I’m glad it was finally released. 0240
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 30/08/2026 Every once in a while, Pitchfork can still be worthwhile. Today’s positive look back at The Eagles’ Greatest Hits (8.1 out of 10) has the perfect opener: “First but not necessarily foremost, fuck the Eagles.“pitchfork.comThe Eagles: Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975)Read Grayson Haver Currin’s review of the album. 040
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Serious look as I prepare to watch The Odyssey in 70mm IMAX. Three hours is a long time. 1350
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 26/08/2026(Stepping away from this week’s awful news for a moment) HEY let's celebrate some great classic actors who are still with us. Repost with your fave living actors who are 85+ 🎭 🎬 090
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Up in SF for a spontaneous movie day. Camp Miasma and then The Samurai and the Prisoner. 0340
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 13/08/2026How have I never heard of this before? They just showed this preview as part of the preshow entertainment and it’s incredible.youtu.beTammy & the T-Rex trailer (1994) Paul Walker Denise RichardsYouTube video by Foywonder 3110
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Free ice cream and I’m about to see the new dinosaur movie. Is this what happiness feels like? 1240
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Last week was an accidental Lauren Bacall week with Dark Passage from a TCM recording and How To Marry A Millionaire on the big screen. Not her best, but they each had enjoyable moments. 1140
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 02/08/2026This thread of amazing book covers goes on forever and… WOW! 060
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 31/07/2026So, about that… turns out everyone else in my group put it off even longer than I did and since I’m the only one who finished it I’ve been assigned to an AI project and I want to dive (without the v). But for now I’ll focus on getting drunk and read for a bit. Happy Friday! 0240
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Enjoyed the new Spider Man movie (except the post credits scene was NOT worth staying for) and then met up with a couple friends from high school. So it was a good day! 0150
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Trying to get Odyssey IMAX 70mm tickets has been insane! New screenings were just released minutes ago and most seats are already taken and the site crept crashing but I was successful for August 27. 🤪 140
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Double feature tonight. First time viewing of Don’t Bother To Knock and repeat viewing of This Gun For Hire with what is possibly cinema’s hottest pairing: Veronica Lake and Alan Ladd. 0120
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 28/07/2026I was 100% set for a day of healthy eating until I found out Mexican Pizzas are only $1 today AND the Encherito is back so the salad will keep to tomorrow. Ugh! Oh well, at least I got a workout in. 7962
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Tonight’s movie was Freaky Tales and I am mad at myself for not catching it on the big screen. Catch it before it leaves HBO on Friday. It’s a B movie but it’s an A+ B movie and it does have several scenes that are Tarantino knock-offs so if you’re not into that then don’t watch. 1121
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Online workplace safety training day and this is the example they chose to “hide” from an attacker. We see you dude! Go find somewhere else that’s not a table. 0100
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 26/07/2026In the theater about to see Niagara. Love this poster! 3130

Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 20/07/2026I watched the Doomsday trailer only so that I could understand today’s discourse. Carry on. 150
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 18/07/2026I’ve been reading the James Bond books over the years and just finished this one which is silly fun aside from miserable lines like this: “All women love semi-rape. They love to be taken. It was his sweet brutality against my bruised body that had made his act of love so piercingly wonderful.” Ugh! 250
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 15/07/20265am and I’m out for a walk on the beach before I need to sign on for work. It was too hot to sleep so I took a quick trip to the ocean to cool off. 3370
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 15/07/2026My scale wished me Happy Birthday (which is tomorrow, the 15th) and it made me smile… until I thought about it for 10 seconds and realized, no. This is just another example of me living in a a technology dystopian nightmare. 8260
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 12/07/2026It’s hot out so it’s a good time to sit in air conditioning and see Mary Pickford’s last silent film My Best Girl. 1240
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Did anyone else catch the bad edit in tonight’s Drag Race where they (I assume) accidentally put in a shot from last week? 260
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 08/07/2026New York Times gunna keep New York Timesing. Seriously, THIS is how they are framing their top story? 060
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 05/07/2026The last activity in LA was going to Madonna’s pop up shop. 1240
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 05/07/2026This is my friends’ adorable cat Keller, who is blind. She helped keep me company during my LA visit. 0340
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Saw some amazing art in the new Geffen wing at LACMA today. 0290
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Spent the afternoon at The Huntington so of course I had to take another selfie with one of my favorite Constable paintings. And they have a corpse flower too. 0200
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 03/07/2026I’m in L.A. for the weekend and it’s a perfect morning. Got to walk to my favorite cafe while listening to Confessions II and made a new friend on the way. 090
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Latest read: The Bridge of San Luis Rey. It’s great and there is a lot in there for only 106 pages. Evidently this is often taught in high school but I think I would have hated it at that age. 040
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 30/06/2026I know I have a few mutuals who will be very excited with today’s framed.wtf game. 120
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 29/06/2026If you subscribe to the Criterion Channel you only have 2 days left to see this specific version of Eno before it changes in the new month. It’s wonderful. 030
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Going to watch Stop That Train! at the only time it’s playing… 9:30AM?!? 2190
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 28/06/2026It took me too long to understand that this advice applies to high tech too. I’m a terrible liar so it doesn’t work for me but it does help me understand why certain other people got promotions. 070
Jason @doubtfulguest.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Once again I wake up and the internet tells me I’m old. 0140
