Star Trek: TOS - S05E03 – The Best Exotic Nanite Hotel
Don’t worry, Jim and A.Ron haven’t seen The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2011) either. This episode of Lower Decks takes Boimler, Mariner, Rutherford, Tendi, and T’Lyn to a vacation planet. But it’s not all fun in the sun! Mariner and Jennifer’s relationship status is unclear. Boimler is terrified of Ransom. And there’s a rogue icosahedron.
Whiplash (2014)
Chasing greatness requires sacrifice, but does it require torturous conditions? Damien Chazelle wrote and directed a film that’s so hard to watch sometimes, but you can’t look away. J.K. Simmons plays the demented instructor of protege drummer Andrew, played by Miles Teller. What is the movie trying to say? Is it a maddening endorsement of maniacal leadership? Or is it a warning?
