4 days agoOh my god, I’m so exhausted. I haven’t posted for a while because work has been a nightmare. I’ve come home at like 10pm every day and passed out, then gone back into work for 9am. Walking my dog after dark has been pretty eventful though, there’s definitely some “characters” who also walk their dog at this time. I nearly ended up in an argument with this one guy the other day but thankfully I managed to defuse things, he’s constantly making rude remarks though. Frankly if things had gone south he would have crushed me like a twig. His dog is also something like five times the size of mine too, so I felt all round inadequate, and the put-downs didn’t help.
How do people feel about Constantine? Specifically the 2005 film starring Keanu Reeves, that is. My understanding is that critics at the time didn’t like it, but I’m a big fan. I will admit I’ve never read the comics, nor have I ever watched the Constantine TV show or The Sandman. But on its own merits I think it’s a very strong performance from Reeves - or at the very least it’s a role well-suited to him - and an underrated gem of his career.
