I think for me it’s alien: covenant. I was really interested in the ideas explored in prometheus and covenant just expanded on them. I don’t get much into the details of why it is or isn’t a good movie.

Luckily, though, HBO ran raised by wolves which really delved into ideals about AI and planet seeding etc. So that itch got way scratched even if the run was cut short.

    I’m uncertain of what the ratings are in general, but there’s probably some horror movie I love that’s been dragged.

    Maybe Insidious? Paranormal Activity 2? As Above, So Below? The Cleansing Hour?

    One of those probably has a shit score somewhere lol.

    EDIT because I realized how lazy I was being:

    Insidious has a 66% on rotten tomatoes Paranormal Activity 2 has a 57% As Above, So Below has a 29% The Cleansing Hour has a shocking 73%

    So my answer is As Above, So Below. Lol But I’m startled about The Cleansing Hour having such a high rating

      Okay. Unrelated and it’s driving me insane.

      How do I do line breaks for lists like that? If I do two hits of Enter, it acts like a new paragraph in total. But I can’t get it to just jump down to the next line, it just follows after the one above it as if it were continuing a sentence. Bwah!

        In Markdown, if you want a paragraph break, then whack Enter twice. That is, this:

        foo

bar

        Gives this:

        foo

        bar

        If you want a line break, then add a backslash or two spaces at the end of the line, and then hit Enter. That is, this (you can’t see it, but two spaces after “foo”):

        foo  
bar\
baz

        Gives this:

        foo
        bar
        baz

        When I’m doing an actual list, I generally prefer to do either an unnumbered or numbered list, though.

        * foo
* bar

        Gives this:

        • foo
        • bar

        And for numbered lists:

        1. foo
2. bar

        Gives this:

        1. foo
        2. bar

        It doesn’t look from that like Markdown is buying you much with the numbered lists (traditionally in Markdown, numbered lists were auto-renumbered, which is IMHO a bad idea and is one feature of Markdown that is not implemented here), but this gets useful if you want to do lists with multiple lines, which is done with a four-space prefix on successive lines:

        1. foo\
    My dog adores foo.
2. bar\
    Some cats fancy bar.

        Gives this:

        1. foo
          My dog adores foo.
        2. bar
          Some cats fancy bar.

        I just press enter

        Leave a space in the blank line here then press enter

        There you go, break in the paragraph.

        It’s after 3 AM and I need to shut down, but for a second there I thought you were talking about “Faraway, So Close”, which is the sequel to “Wings of Desire”, one of my favorite films ever.

        54% on the tomatometer, could stand to go lower. :(
