Jun. 9th, 2026 03:31 pmI went to see Masters of the Universe on Saturday, and it was everything I wanted and more, such a nostalgia hit with a OTT camp side that was both ridiculous and amazing. Because let's face it, He-Man is ridiculous, so I'm glad they leaned into that and not just the brash masculinity and also that they leaned into a surprising amount of innuendo and fisting comments. Plus, Cringer! I always loved that cat.
Thanks to
shadowhive I knew there were two end credit scenes, and they were worth staying for. Especially as again, they were a nostalgia hit right to the feels.
My brother had the model Castle Greyskull and the action figures, too. And of course, I played with them as well, so more reminders of good memories there.
Other than that, I took Bodhi to school twice last week. Once on James' day off so we could drive there, the other solo which meant walking. Not that it's a long walk, but it did take a little longer than it should have taken as the route takes you through a cemetery and Bodhi kept pointing out all the graves that featured Jesus.
On another afternoon, I went with Lucy to see Bodhi in her school play. She goes to a Catholic faith school, so the play was about friendship and God, which was more religious content than I'd sat through for years. It was a short play, but every kid had a line, so I enjoyed watching them stand up and either belt out their line or mutter it -- Bodhi was a mutter'er. But was amused when the headmaster said that normally you wouldn't clap during religious plays, but in this case, he was sure that Jesus wouldn't mind some quiet applause. So thank you, Jesus for that permission, as it would have felt so wrong to have sat in silence.
One of the film channels has Christmas in June going on. Guess who has had Christmas films as their background viewing this last week :D
