05.28.23 – When Exhaustion Takes Over.

I could not explain why I was so tired today. Yawning and leaning my chair back while I watched movies with my boyfriend. Not even going to try even evaluate what I did the whole day. Because I did nothing strenuous to warrant the exhaustion. We did manage to watch two more movies today.

Scream IV (2011). We were finally able to watch it. I mean, we had to rent it but we just decided to for it. The story was good. It fitted right in with the whole franchise. It was unhinged. We enjoyed the story. However, the film and sound qualities were questionable. No, not questionable, it was not good. I had to tell my hun to mute himself because all I could hear was his AC and not the movie says a lot about how shitty the sound was. The picture quality was just…interesting. Apparently, it was purposeful. Something about the filter that the production used. But they totally missed the mark on that one. Watching all of them, I decided to consider the 5th and the 6th movies as totally different and not at all connected to the original installments since the last two have different legacy characters. On the four movies, here is my ranking with number 1 as my favorite: (1) Scream, (2) Scream 2, (3) Scream 4, and (4) Scream 3. My hun’s ranking: (1) Scream, (2) Scream 4, (3) Scream 2 and (4) Scream 3. We disagreed on the 2nd and 3rd place of course, and it all came down to preference.

Shutter Island (2010). No complaints about this movie. It was a good psychological thriller. My hun enjoyed it as well, and that was all I wanted. He said that he thought it was a horror movie at first that was why he never watched it. Let’s just say that the movie made me want to read the book. So that was good. The story was good. The twist was great. And we had no complaints about it. I did remember watching this for the first years ago, and for some reason, I remembered it to be more intense than my rewatch. Which was understandable. I mean this was a psychological thriller mystery, there was no way that I could enjoy it the same way I enjoyed it the first time I saw the movie. Still really good though.

No big plans tonight. Just chill and relax. As I said, I am feeling exhausted. So I just want to take it easy tonight. I just need to journal real quick and then I should be done for the night.
