I feel we may be living through one of those times which are so deeply culturally strange that we don't realise it until it's passed and everything has got homogenised and predictable again. (This is the upcoming Paul Thomas Anderson film)

Yeah I thought that was odd. Like putting There Will be Blood in Roblox. I assume PTA has no knowledge of this.

Yesterday I was wondering whether I needed to show my kids the last three Jurassic films before they see the new one. Now I'm wondering if I need to show them Inherent Vice

Show them the first one. If they insist on seeing the sequels feed them to the velociraptors.

Yep, was about to suggest doing everyone a favour and showing them the first one four times. Or do a Spielberg tour. JP, ET, Jaws, Indiana Jones.
