    (Levar was lamenting having to negotiate copyright permission to find something to read, and Gaiman responded via twitter that Burton had blanket permission to use any of Giaman's writing)

    Started watching Akira Kurosawa movies the last couple of days. 七人の侍 (Seven Samurai) was a really cool story about a poor farming village that hires seven rag-tag samurai to keep bandits from stealing their rice harvest and starving them, but 生きる (Ikiru --- To Live) was truly amazing. The story of a rich long time bureaucrat paper pusher who finds out he has stomach cancer and has wasted his life and is determined to fight to live his last months.

    Quick preview:


    Can't wait to watch more of Kurosawa's work.

    生きる is a much better story than 七人の侍 tbh

    You'd Like Stray Dog. Kurosawa is the best. I'd also recommend Ikiru and Redbeard aside from the obvious ones.

    I'm not on lockdown but might as well be with nothing to do besides work and stores/drive-thrus .


    I started watching the one on Prime about the ex hockey player who's becoming invisible and I cannot help but think he's actually dying on the ice.

    I think it used to be on there years ago, but it is a great show aside from the one season without Dan Harmon.

    Season 4 of Community isn’t bad, it’t just not as good because there’s no Dan Harmon. Definitely feels more like a Community ripoff show. But it actually is still fun.

    The Yahoo season has it’s moments, the meta jokes all land pretty well, but with all the departed characters, it also doesn’t feel like Community.
