What Are We Up To? 08/05/22
The world is full of surprises. Here are some of them.
The Gray Man
To my surprise, Netflix delivers a competent action movie.
Jurassic World: Dominion
The Jurassic era lumbers to a conclusion with the overstuffed Jurassic World: Dominion.
The Storyteller – Dave Grohl
An entertaining and eye-opening tour through the life of Dave Grohl (so far).
Sea of Tranquility – Emily St. John Mandel
A thrilling side-quel to The Glass Hotel in the key of Cloud Atlas.
Firestarter – Stephen King
“Burn it down, Charlie.”
The True Adventures of the World’s Greatest Stuntman – Vic Armstrong with Robert Sellers
It’s not the years, its the mileage.
Diablo Mesa – Preston & Child
Serviceable thriller caps off a solid trilogy.

My little piggy needed something new…
Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 12 – Christos Gage, Kel MacDonald, Erika Alexander
Say goodbye to the original Scoobies, one last time.
The Luminous Dead – Caitlin Starling
Let’s go caving with a-holes.
The Kingdoms – Natasha Pulley
I have crossed oceans of time to find you.
The 007 Diaries: Filming Live and Let Die – Roger Moore
A wild all access pass to the making of Live and Let Die by the man at the center of the circus.
The Devil and the Dark Water – Stuart Turton
Take a diabolical voyage on the high seas!
Nick Offerman – Where the Dear and the Antelope Play
A mostly pleasant, but rambling (and jarring) set of essays about nature. And Brett Kavanaugh.

A lyrical, darkly funny reinvention of a classic story.
