Welcome to the Antimemetics Division.

Whatever you’re into is some fascinatingly weird shit.

How many Fantastic Four movies is that, just since 200?

Yelena Belova: There’s something wrong with me.

The Lost Hero followed newcomer Jason Grace as he shows up at Camp Half-Blood, lacking in memories and with a touch of … Rome about him.

Yeah, I know.

I think that’s probably about enough Mad Men.

♬ ♬ ♬ Way down Hadestown Way down under the ground ♬ ♬ ♬ Hadestown is such a great show.

Ocean’s Eleven was great.

You thought, as a boy, that a mage is one who can do anything.

Well, it’s not quite Frozen, but you know?

Matilda: Daddy, you’re a crook.

Twenty years later, another trip to Alaska.

Another long flight back?

Our last full day.

Back through Portage to hike again on our way to Anchorage.

Our one full day in Homer.

We went to the Sealife Center in Seward before the (long) drive to Homer.

Out into the ocean.

Another day, another hero.

A hike at Exit Glacier and pictures at the marina.

Our first day in Alaska, at a house just outside of Seward.

It’s been a while since I watched these movies.

Made it back to Holliday Park for probably the last time until classes begin again this fall.

The 3rd to the 5th.

Miyagi: Wax on, wax off.

It took a while (relatively speaking) to get to this one.

He’s stuck out there.

Onward in Harry Potter.

This is it!

I watched (and reviewed) Despicable Me 2 years ago, in theaters.

With my new lens, birds are so much easier to take pictures of.

I probably should have skipped this one.

A rewatch for me, but that’s just a fun movie.

The Labyrinth.

Annabeth is missing and a goddess is in chains!

Families are messy.

The Harry Potter films have some problems1, but they came out just at the right time to be a large part of my growing up.

El Principito.

Where Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery was a delightful, raunchy, vulgar parody of spy flicks and the 90s, The Spy Who Shagged Me turns everything up a notch–for better and for worse.

Austin Powers: Allow myself to introduce… myself.

What if the Greek gods (and the rest of that mythology) were not only real… but still around?

Man.

Information is like water—without it you won’t live long, too much and you’ll drown.

“They’re turning on us!”

Well, I’m just about to Alien vs.

The Book That Wouldn’t Burn was a crazy, solid introduction to the world: we have a giant timeless library built into a mountain range, cities built up and around it throughout time and by more than just humanity, and you have a sort of timey whimey mess…

Ripley: You’ve been in my life so long, I can’t remember anything else.

Take a world where ghosts are very much real and, along with mediums and spiritualists, can have an impact on the world around them.

Part 3!
