Logging

Film: The Empire Strikes Back 

Watched with kids...they laughed out loud when Luke reacted to "I am your father." Striking thing to me - the film goes on for another 10 or so minutes after this climax with another climax -- Millennium Falcon escaping from Vader with Luke aboard, etc. Star Wars should be studied not for dialog or special effects, but how editing impacts storytelling. 

Film: The Equalizer 3

Watched over the course of several nights...went to finish the film and realized I had finished it the night before. It was that memorable. I wonder how many days Denzel committed to for the paycheck...my guess is 15. 

TV: Common Side Effects

Good show but has internalized all woke liberal platitudes of the moment which means it can only be admired but not loved.
