Re: What was the last thing you watched and/or read (and did you enjoy it)?

Last watched: Red, White, and Royal Blue. I enjoyed it. I would not say it's good or recommend it to anyone.

Last read: Project Hail Mary. Very much enjoyed it. It makes me slightly sad that the movie is on hold/canceled because of the strikes, but only slightly. It will be a better movie anyway once everyone gets paid what they're worth.

Project Hail Mary is such fun. I bought the trade paperback and couldn't read it throughout the pandemic - there was too much RL crap going on and I was too exhausted to lift that brick. But I got round to it a few months ago, and was blown away by it. Got the audiobook because so many people on the subreddit recommended it, and that was equally good. Now I've got the small-format paperback for a long plane flight coming up, and that's part-reconciling me to 20 hours in the air... I can always pretend I'm in a spaceship going to meet Rocky.

I'm pretty sure I didn't get half the media-related jokes but I'm working on it.

I've heard good things about Red White and Royal Blue from my friends, but from the online crowd I've heard the author of the book is more-wholesome-than-thou about M/M as a genre (in the vein of Alice Oseman and her "MY characters don't have sex, unlike all the other gay-fetishizing BL manga" comment). I'm both reluctant to look that up and be disappointed if it's true, and reluctant to watch without knowing.

I haven't read the book and in fact had never even heard of it until I watched RWRB. So, knowing nothing of the author's opinions, I could believe it. There are sex scenes in the movie but they're very bland (the main one is filmed mid-chest up, with no movements at all). I've heard fans saying that sex scene was amazing and so hot, and I'm now concerned about their sex lives. I've seen hotter sex scenes on actual broadcast tv. So, ymmv.

RWRB is the crappy, tropey, cheesy romcom that the straights have ten thousand of. I enjoyed it for what it was with no expectations, but by no means would I say it's an example of a good movie.

I've seen lots of explicit sex scenes, and I still think inexplicitness is hotter. It's hotter when I can imagine what's going on in the most intimate bits instead of seeing it all as shown to me by framing and camera angles that may not be to my liking.

But, it also may be because I'm asexual.

Oh, it's not inexplicitness, it's literally two dudes lying on each other like dead fish not moving. The camera only showed mid chest and up, but even in my minds eye it the rest of it looked awkward as fuck. XD
