2nd August, 2019.
Hmmm …
There’s a lot going on.
In theory, anyway.
In theory, anyway.
If you’ve read my Daily Teaser post for this morning, you’ll know that I’ve potentially either not … or not got a job.
It comes down to the paperwork.
I’ve got adoption papers that everything I see tells me are acceptable proof of my right to work in the UK. I was born in Bexley, for heavens sake!
My potential manager is disagreeing …
~≈§≈~
As you can imagine?
I’m not pleased with that: nor with the fact that Monday’s the earlier day this could be resolved.
That’s when my prospective manager will be able to speak with her Human Resources Department.
I’m thumb twiddling, until then.
Oh …
And catching up with a movie or two.
And catching up with a movie or two.
Yep … Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse …
~≈§≈~
Based, very loosely, on the comic of the same name, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse introduces us to the teenage school boy, Miles Morales (Shameik Moore): a lad having trouble fitting into his school, and finding life difficult.
And finding the mysterious Spiderman as inspirational as his Uncle Aaron (Mahershala Ali.)
It’s while he’s out with Aaron … ?
That’s he’s bitten by a radioactive spider.
It’s only after getting home … ?
That Miles realises he’s changing: and that the changes started after he got bitten.
And, when he returns to where this happened?
In an effort to find the spider?
In an effort to find the spider?
That his troubles really start.
~≈§≈~
Now …
Am I feeling tired?
Lord, yes.
I will be happily climbing into the sack as soon as possibly.
But … ?
I will be happily climbing into the sack as soon as possibly.
But … ?
I have to admit, I’ve watched a fun film, tonight: well written, with sympathetic characters, beautifully paced.
And with animation like nothing I’ve seen.
Frankly?
You could argue Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is lightweight.
Fluffy, even.
It might be.
But with visuals like this, casting and writing like this, and just sheer fun oozing out of every frame?
You’d be stupid to miss Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
