Friday Night Open Thread: Moar Lizard!
Here’s another local reptile, walking on a mirror, which must seem like sorcery to him / her:
We’re catching up on “Wolf Hall.” There must only be 30 or so actors in all of the UK; you see the same ones over and over in every production.
They’re all pretty wonderful, though, so it’s okay. This series features Mycroft Holmes and the Minister of Magic in supporting roles.
I’m going to try to get to bed early tonight since I’ve only had about four hours of sleep in the last 48 and have lots to do this weekend. What are you up to this evening?

Old Movie Recs (Open Thread)
Help me figure out what movie to watch late tonight! Preferably something free on Netflix or Amazon Prime, but I’m willing to pay a small fee for something good.
The mister’s favorite movie ever is “Lawrence of Arabia.” I love it too, but while it’s a contender, I’m not sure it’s my favorite ever.
In no particular order, I love these old (as in not new release) movies: “Giant,” “Moonstruck,” “Miss Firecracker,” the LOTR trilogy, “Key Largo,” all the Harry Potter films, “Kill Bill I and II,” “Enchanted April,” “The Big Lebowski,” “Mississippi Masala” — I could go on all fucking night, but hopefully you get the picture.
We love almost everything from the Coen Bros. The old movie we’ve enjoyed the most that we’ve seen lately was “Road to Perdition,” an underrated film, IMO.
So what old movies do you love, and, more importantly, why? Also, open thread!

Grand Marshal of the Fail Parade (Open Thread)
Looks like Chris Christie, who will never, ever be president, is trying to stake out a position as the biggest dick in the GOP primary:
Maybe it’ll distract people from the abuse of power thing. Or not.
We’re watching the Marvel “Daredevil” series on Netflix. It’s pretty interesting so far.
What are you up to tonight?
