Like I said, I'm curious about SMILE 2 but also hesitant. Rewatched the original recently to refresh before the sequel and I hope it does well.

Did you see JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX? If so, what did you think?


Oh, Margaret Qualley gave Demi a run for her money. When I saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, I knew she was going to be a major star some day. Her level of talent is actually quite extraordinary. I had a similar feeling about Emily Blunt after seeing Wind Chill. Did you see Maid? It wasn't my favorite Netflix production, but I kept watching because of Margaret Qualley's talent.

I did see Joker 2, and I kinda liked it. I was actually very sad to see the negative reaction to it, but I may be a bit biased when it comes to that one

But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
