Abel Brainz Digest, Vol. 40 - February 28, 2024
Volume 40!
I was catching up on a lot after getting sick, but I'm back at it.
cool tv stuff
Finished the most recent season of True Detective. It was solid. Definitely different but a well made piece of television.
cool movie stuff
Rewatched Mission: Impossible 3. It brought to mind this TED talk from JJ Abrams where he talks about his favorite special effect from the film. Click here to watch.
Also, as we come to the end of Black History Month, I thought of a few movies that stuck with me over the years, have black leads, and "should be on the watchlist, regardless of the month." (Thanks to Courtney Taylor. Please check out her IG. She's got a whole series of Put it on The Watchlist [PIOTW])
