Rewatchathon 2019 #6. Yes, this is the first time I've seen Inception since the cinema. On the bright side, that wait meant I got to return to it on 4K Blu-ray, which looks superb and sounds even better.

this week on 100 Films
6 new reviews were published to 100 Films in a Year this week, and they were...
High Flying Bird (2019)
Where the Wild Things Are (2009)
The Ragtag Review Roundup
More next Sunday.
High Flying Bird (2019)
it took less than two minutes for High Flying Bird to leave me feeling lost and confused, as it dives into an “inside baseball” (as the saying goes) depiction of basketball right from the off. It felt like watching a French movie without subtitles, except here the language isn’t French, it’s basketball.Read more here.
Where the Wild Things Are (2009)
Despite being adapted from a kids’ picture book, and resolutely rated PG, it didn’t strike me as a kids’ movie at all. It’s glum, depressing, and surely only understandable when filtered through an adult perspective.Read more here.
The Ragtag Review Roundup
A real mixed back of films that have basically nothing in common. In today’s roundup:Read more here.
- American Psycho (2000)
- Logan Lucky (2017)
- A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
- The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)

Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
Having last week promised more 4K UHD discs soon, that's all I have to add this week! There were six of them, almost all upgrades: two from other Blu-rays, two from DVDs (now that's a quality jump!), and one where I'm also keeping the previous edition (for now, at least); plus one brand-new title, too.
All of which works out like this:
Number of titles in collection: 2,186 [up 2]
Of which DVDs: 1,140 [down 2]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,046 [up 4]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 16 [up 6]
Number of discs in collection: 5,657 [up 11]
Number of films: 2,499 [up 2]
Number of TV episodes: 8,426 [up 1]
Number of short films: 652 [no change]
See you next week, faithful reader.

Podcasts
David Tennant Does a Podcast with…
1 Olivia Colman
2 Whoopi Goldberg
I don't have a specific category for podcasts -- maybe I should add one? I'm more likely to listen to those than regular radio nowadays.
Anyway, this one does what it says on the tin, and it's a lovely way to spend a bit of time with some friends nattering.
