for Til Death Do Us Blart 2016
A heist with no stakes / actionless action movie / no jokes comedy
"We're all still here." The original 5
repeated like the layers of lore
keeping Ghost Lane and the Shadowman
alive under the flimsy conceit of
a plot that holds nothing as sacred.
What legacy is left to a ghost teen
or kidnapped daughter at baby's first film?
Deep dives come up short in shallow water
after 2 watches and a podcast that
hit every highlight - real and imagined.
"Retreading ground with perfect clarity"
cannot make the text better than the dream.
For now, the banana, the old lady
and Anna Gasteyer persist.

This movie missed all / but 2(3)(or 4)(or 5) / of the shots it took
In the kitchen, again and again, this time cleaning, this time settled with a cuppa tea. Deep cleaning the stove's top and really feeling Griffin's assertion that by the 2nd episode this podcast is already becoming a self-referential ouroboros, I pulled a hair out of somewhere that it can only have landed between 5 and 3 years ago. Layers build up quick in spiraling time. Finding my way to and through one set of stratified histories makes the next trip seem easy. And then I find my feet back in 2016 and the vertigo is real. I'm on my way to work in 2026 and the tunnels make static of irreplaceable bits about the email account and Guy giving the whole thing away because why the fuck not? Time has moved me to my desk with multiple notebooks and a willingness to flow.
We got it in one / Oh no, it's Dot's first movie! / Man, are we funny
