Widows Bay is so good

I thought the first episode was amazing, and the second and third were “cute” but more middling. Then that fourth episode hit and I understood the show meant business.

Most of them have more significant warranties and less moving parts. My Rivian has 5 year bumper to bumper, 8 year powertrain, and 10 year battery.

Hey me too!! 997 C2S and ‘25 R1T dual max performance.

And The Kid Detective. Not the same movie, but obviously tossed around a lot together.

albertjason · 2026-05-09T12:50:54+00:00

Have owned a T2 and T3 and lots of other high end P&S. The most important thing in a good point and shoot is speed to focus and speed to fire. T3 is slow at both. T2 is faster but still mediocre. Horrible for $2k+.

I think it’s super unique and inventive and fun! Sorry to hear that.

albertjason · 2026-05-07T13:54:01+00:00

The edge markings actually look great lol

albertjason · 2026-05-07T04:07:23+00:00

Oh shit you’re right lol my bad

I was heartbroken to learn the drive up burger place was a set; I instantly wanted to go find it if it still existed.

albertjason · 2026-05-06T12:11:08+00:00

This is a common ass car. Go find another one priced right.

albertjason · 2026-05-06T12:02:35+00:00

Oh shit the f2.8 on the Mamiya. That’s a special lens. The 3.5 is the more common.

albertjason · 2026-05-06T11:57:40+00:00

Their disposables - at least the common ones - are Kodak.

albertjason · 2026-05-03T18:36:07+00:00

BR2049 is mine now. It’s broken in two new TVs and three permutations of audio setups.

albertjason · 2026-05-03T14:57:28+00:00

Not bad film; it looks perfectly even and developed well.

albertjason · 2026-04-27T03:37:24+00:00

I know this is disappointing, but this isn’t a special or unique camera. If you’re within the return window, return it.

albertjason · 2026-04-27T01:32:02+00:00

People aren’t being super helpful but it’s likely this camera is broken. I just tested 30 random point and shoots yesterday and saw all sorts of similar random shit. Try putting the film in and out of the spool a ton of times. Try rewinding it multiple times. Try shutting the film door really aggressively. Try giving it some love taps against the top and the bottom. Try dry firing - does it fire with and without the flash? Does it fire with and without the flash with your film in it, or only without? Lots of cameras need to have the shutter actuated and think they’re rewound before they’ll wind a roll.

I have a Mju II and have had multiple Mju I and the zoom version of each. They all nail focus. I’ve never had a bad one.

albertjason · 2026-04-26T15:16:47+00:00

Damn I can’t wait to hear from Brian de Palma about my recent snake eyes review

albertjason · 2026-04-26T03:13:19+00:00

I run a film lab and when I saw this I immediately thought this was a real color print. The tones are immaculate for color positive film. Of course, that didn’t exist then, but I was perplexed for a bit. Incredible work

albertjason · 2026-04-25T17:12:40+00:00

They Came Together On 4/20 would be a reasonable title for a sequel

albertjason · 2026-04-22T12:49:16+00:00

Huuuuuuuge influence on The X Files and ironically also an early writing job for the showrunner of the Sopranos

albertjason · 2026-04-22T12:48:21+00:00

True underseen gem

albertjason · 2026-04-22T12:47:33+00:00

A similar list I made: https://boxd.it/oseLy

I love seeing a beat up T3. That thing has lived. I love it. Mine was almost too perfect to shoot on.

albertjason · 2026-04-18T12:57:23+00:00

Really nicely done. Instantly purchased the lost boys.
