TWIB Notes

I’m watching Network today. And it’s like watching the original Studio 60. Everything is there. The anchor who goes crazy(Peter Finch/Judd Hirsch in Studio). The young executive who’s going to make the ailing show work(Faye Dunnaway/Amanda Peet). The old director who falls for the young executive(William Holden/Bradley Whitford).

But I’m bored. And there’s 40 minutes left. And I’m tired of the hahaha, a revolutionary gets corrupted by the network.

This is one of those movies that I felt, I should see this, and it feels like homework. Snoozeville.

At the elliptical machine at the gym, there’s a readout for the number of watts you are producing. Who gives a shit about this? The only reason I could think it would be relevant is if the machine is powered by your electricity. Otherwise, is someone thinking—gee I really need to be producing 200 watts to get a good workout. I don’t buy it.
