This afternoon I decided to shake things up a bit, so instead of cloistering myself in my bedroom all day, I did something I rarely do: I turned off my desktop PC, grabbed a Blu-ray of a movie that was, incidentally, one of the titles on my most recent To Be Watched (TBW) list. ThatContinue reading “On Movies & Movie Watching: Making Progress with My TBW List for March”

Musings & Thoughts for Thursday, November 3, 2022, or: Movies, Moods, and Aspirations
From Books to Movies Since yesterday I posted about my infamous To Be Read (TBR) list and how I tend to read different books about the same topic (for instance, the invasion of Japan that mercifully did not take place), today’s installment of A Certain Point of View, Too will be about the To BeContinue reading “Musings & Thoughts for Thursday, November 3, 2022, or: Movies, Moods, and Aspirations”

Well, with the end of July only a few days off, it’s time for an update on my To Be Watched (TBW) and To Be Read (TBR) lists for the seventh month of 2022.
