Went for a long-ass drive last night.
Got home around 3 in the morning.
Sometimes when I’m stressed…
I just drive.
Simba’s in the window passed out.
Vacuum in front of me.
Jeremy Corbell on YouTube talking about aliens.
Movie I expected to hate but ended up loving?
Marty Supreme.
When I first saw the trailer…
I thought:
“There is no way this movie is actually good.”
Table tennis?
Seriously?
I went in open-minded…
but also kind of laughing at the idea.
So I sat down in my local theater.
Recliner seat.
Ordered food.
Told myself:
“Alright. Surprise me.”
And honestly?
It did.
The movie felt like something out of the early ’90s…
but made for 2026.
The music.
The cinematography.
The weird energy.
It just worked.
And Timothy Chalamet surprised me too.
There are actors you watch because they’re famous.
Then there are actors you watch because you can tell they genuinely love what they’re doing.
That feeling communicates through the screen.
I think people can feel when someone truly enjoys their craft…
even if they can’t explain why.
Maybe that’s what art really is.
Someone loving what they do enough…
that other people can feel it too.
