Favorite movies of 2024: This was easy – Dune 2 and Inside Out 2 in English, and Berlin in Hindi.
Favorite TV show of 2024: This was easy too – Trying S4 and Slow Horses S4, both on Apple TV were the best shows by a long fucking mile.
23 movies and 10 TV shows this year we’ve seen. 10 might undercount by a few since we finished multiple seasons of a single show but they are few. This would indicate a movie every other week with quite a bit of TV shows thrown in. I think its an approximate representation of how much TV I watch, which is not much. We also start a lot of TV shows that we never end up watching beyond 1-2 episodes.
Crazy to think that it’s been five years now since the pandemic. To think that crazy 2020 year was now 5 years ago is just mid boggling.
Merry Christmas! I got a splendid nights rest (admittedly most of this week!) and I am beginning to treasure a good night’s sleep as a gift enough! Plans for the day include doing laundry, art, meeting a friend and finishing up godfather II which I got to intermission last night.
Was talking to bro today and apparently Goa tourism decline is so bad that nobody is showing up anymore. People prefer to go to Thailand or Vietnam for same costs and better service rather than go to Goa and pay the same. I didn’t think Goa had become that expensive but bro was like it’s so out of hand.

🎮 The Godfather – ★★★☆☆
Rewatching the series this Christmas and oddly enough in retrospect the original movie doesn’t hold up as well as I thought it would. I didn’t remember any of it going in so it was like watching a new movie – I mean it’s a good movie but I remember it being great!
Wait, Christopher Nolan making The Odyssey was the last thing I thought he would ever attempt.
I am still searching for that perfect mid-layer jacket that is breathable and can be layered along with another jacket in 20s-30s weather. I layer a fleece pullover and then a 650 fill down-jacket. More often than not I end up sweating a lot because the fleece pull-over is not breathable. Need a jacket that is as warm as fleece but breathable. The search continues – I have already way way too many jackets and pullovers to count so I am not sure one more won’t raise eyebrows yes?
If only this were the foyer to my house. But no its a store.
