Howl's Moving Castle | Regal | Cinemark | AMC | Violet Crown
Howl’s great.
Reminds me a lot of A Scanner Darkly but a western and with time travel.
It’s actually not a lot like A Scanner Darkly but it is animated in an interesting way.

ZACHARIAH | Hotel Vegas.
Hyperreal Film Club presents this ‘70s “electric western.”
Looks amazing and I wanna see it.
Tuesday 9/26

Wednesday 9/27
I didn’t even know this theater existed and there’s two of them. I mean it’s kinda a long drive for me in either location.
It looks pretty fancy but they are showing Goodfellas for $5 so maybe a nice way to check it out if you’re not doing anything else and really wanna see Goodfellas.
Thursday 9/28
Spirited Away | Regal | AMC | Cinemark
I probably wouldn’t be allowed in that magical bathhouse because I have tattoos.
