spellbound, catwoman

Young lions were so intrigued by the dominant heroine in Spellbound, they actually bought the DVD.  26 years later, an HD print arrived.  Young lion initially saw only fragments while channel surfing.  The higher resolution definitely revealed a hazier, softer view of 1945.

 





Unsharp only worsens the grain.  The heroine's towering 5'9" tallness & dominance popped with young lion, but he didn't know it.  Hitchcock left it up to the viewer to decide if she was doing competent doctoring or succumbing to female hormones.  Young lion wanted to believe the former but the ending in middle age implied the latter.


 

Ingrid Bergman had affairs with all her costars, in an age before polyamory of the rich was the way intelligent life would survive.   Polyamory of a female zillionaire is still unheard of.

 She got only 67 years, as a hard smoker.  The twilight began with a lump under her breast at age 59.  Lions noted a lump on their scrotum by age 50 but the internet said it was benign.

 Catwoman wasn't that bad, but lions skimmed it at 1.5x -2x, especially the dialog.  Its ties to the worst movie of all time come from it being manestream.  There are plenty of Debbie Gibson movies putting catwoman to shame & never forget Sharknado.

 Indeed the Debbie Gibson filmography dashed many warm & fuzzy childhood feelings.

 



 What was on your desk in 2004?  Those saturated, contrasty early 2000 bluray colors were in full force.  


 Your glaring plastic LCD imac wasn't complete without your gigantic desktop replacement macbook.

 


 

 


 The vibrant, detailed cubefarm set was an unsung hero of this show, overshadowed by the raving asshole boss.  Lions noted the most colorful workplaces tended to have the most lunatic bosses.

That was a brief era of half height, semi partitioned spaces before the full on return to 1960's style bullpens.  Of course 99% of what was on those imac monitors was a web browser before the distractions all moved to phones.

 


Funny spotting so many land lines after the Matrix phone rage.  Lions had gone 100% cellular by 2004, but the rest of the world had both land lines & cell.  It was still stupidly expensive to have more than 300 minutes of voice.  We couldn't imagine voice becoming unlimited one day, let alone any broadband data.

 


A video call was pure fiction in 2004.  Phones didn't even have wifi.  Even today, what was mere potato quality has been degraded into intolerable by AI rotoscoping.

 


 Then the heroine was revived after death by the cat army.



 

Unfortunately, creep boss's death happened off camera, robbing the audience of satisfaction.  So he & the Heroine Stone villain were some kind of enemies who also worked together on the dastardly makeup deed.

 

 


Cat lady queen desperately needed to be the subject of her own movie.  The fabled, least married single old lady of all time has been found.

 


Recovered heroine stone after stroke. 

 

We conclude with Heroine Stone's final death pose.  There was still a basic instinct 2 but it was over.

& cat heroine paws off into the moonset for a sequel which would never happen.

   Amusing that Grok applied an IPv6 style pseudo header to the computation of an IPv4 ping packet, even though IPv4 doesn't use the pseudo header.       Another Grok error was in a basic TCP demonstrator.  To avoid a TIMED_WAIT on the server blocking the port, you have to exit the server without closing the socket.   These errors take a lot more time to track down than doing it the old way.  It might be fixed in paid versions of Grok. The solution to everything ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 2nd Krispy Kreme run.  Always a satisfied mane after 6 miles.  Always a horrible bloating, after 13 miles.  Noted the half marathon times with mane feedings are on pace for the lion kingdom's best full marathon time.  Lions took a step down from their maximum power delivery in the shortest time when the leash enabled food breaks.  Before then...

 The lion kingdom's 3rd or 4th rewatching of The Martian, not including the book, brought more questions than answers. https://heroineworshiper.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-martian.html     Surely, an explosive air lock event would have been confined to just the airlock & not damaged the mane greenhouse. The cycle fatigue would have manifested itself as a slow leak long before.  The book had him restarting some food growth after the explosion.  We now know a lot of bacteria can survive in space for a long time & we now have far more capability to send a resupply payload.  The business of traveling across the country to have every single dialog seemed overdone in 2025, but might have been more justified in 2015.  It was manely for dramatic effect. 10 years on, the clueless executive assistant is a world class hottie.  She's now 52. After 50 years of Mars movies, it's pretty boring.  Young lion 1st noticed how boring a purely red landscap...

Its theatric run over in 1 month, Project Hail Mary arrived on the hard drive in short order.   After running the Michael Jackson movie for just a week, the IMAX theater now seems to be derelict.  They could be reserving it for private screenings or it could be too expensive to operate. It's a growing number of movies which won't be available in blu ray.  Lions continued to be perplexed by the inferior quality of webrips.      Skimming through it, the resemblance to 80's depictions of the future was striking.         It was a time when the future was painted white & noodled.  Sometimes you have to go back to go forward.   Moving on, they made every effort to pack as much of the book in a 2:30 screening time as possible.  The shots are all very quick.  It was like watching normal movies at 2x.  The book being intended from the start to be a movie definitely helped.   Computer animated exterior s...
