 Monster Squad was another Ben Heck recommendation, specifically considered superior to Goonies.  Lions were reminded of a time when translating German required finding a bio robot who could speak the language & it was possible to watch a movie in a theater without paying, with binoculars.          Lions were struck by the use of such germane monsters, dracula, frankenstein, mummy, swamp creature, saveitforparts.  Like all Ben Heck favorites, it's a damn boring rehash of known quantities that checks all the boxes of good story telling, but what gets lions going is novelty over academics.  Boring music is another thing he prefers.  Goonies worked because the music was novel.    Noted the Robotech shirt, a very niche show to be in a movie.  Surprised Harmony Gold authorized the trademark.  Noted in this incarnation of Goonies, there were no girls.  The Goonies started a boom in kid club movies during that ...

Baby it's clear outside   Introducing the negative split 1000m. Just kicking the last 100m up a notch. Been rapidly getting more intense since daily stretches of the hamstring tendons & daily knee activations. Vastly more intense than it was before the last marathon, but much less distance. Stretching the tendon just to the point of triggering it seemed to really boost the recovery.   Helas, 18.7 miles the next day ended in hamstring cramp. It responded briefly to electrolyte drink, but it took a lot of electrolyte drink to massage it all the way home.  Stretching the hamstring while standing seemed to keep it alive. It seemed to originate in the tendon. At least the lion kingdom aligned the end with the supplies, based on prior knowledge. 18 has consistently been the bingo point, no matter the pace, the nutrients, or the weather.    That yielded the final photos of the theater demolition. Noted what appeared to be the curtain in the rubble. 1 of th...

 For a good time,  https://www.reddit.com/r/aivideo/ Seedance is the latest & greatest video generator, but very expensive.  Output is still disjointed scenes to nowhere because they're diluting a minimum amount of text.  Lions still imagine one day generating statue dance.  It was originally an impossible vision of manual 3D modeling in 2019.  That could be a good application of disjointed scenes to nowhere.    What lions can afford is a generated still frame, still very non deterministic & low fidelity.  --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lions started on Backrooms, the movie.  We got to finally see the back rooms as we originally imagined they were, a vast complex built with practical sets, in HD.  It's a bit slow.  1 intro scene was enough, but it kept repeating the intro scene long after we got it.  At this point, after so many gootube renditions of man di...
