I didn't know MatPat actually voiced one of the toy animatronics since I never saw FNAF 2 yet, so I went on Wikipedia to check and WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN SKEET ULRICH PLAYS HENRY EMILY!? THE FOUNDERS OF FREDDY FAZBEAR'S PIZZERIA ARE THE TWO KILLERS FROM SCREAM!?

Watching the Dead Meat Horror Awards, and naturally the films that won Oscars are dominating. I guess they are just telling it like it is, but Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan don't need a collection of steak-shaped paperweights from a Youtuber when they have Oscars. The entire point of this show in the first place was to celebrate films that the Academy snubbed. Whatever. We're 100% going to see an Obsession sweep in next year's DMHA.

I cried when Catherine O'Hara came up in the In Memoriam. And again with Daveigh Chase.

I really need to watch The Ugly Stepsister.

And the finale of Ben 10: Omniverse. We abandon the Ben 10,000 plotline to watch 16 y/o Ben and Rook chase after Maltruant following the previous ep's cliffhanger. Ben inspires George Washington to found The Plumbers, as well as putting it in his head to declare independence from Great Britain. Then Ben goes back to before the universe began and learns the Contumelia created it as an "experiment" and that the Annihilarrgh is not a weapon for destroying universes but a tool for creating new ones. Maltruant is not only defeated, but this defeat is the reason why his pieces were originally scattered across spacetime. In other words, his entire story arc is a stable time loop where he will forever assemble himself and try to conquer all of spacetime only to be thwarted by Ben and returned to square one. Infinitely. Ben witnesses the Big Bang and, failing to find the appropriate words to describe such a profound sense of euphoria, calls it "the awesomest". Ben is so moved by the experience that he decides he should go on a road trip around the universe with Rook, Gwen, and Kevin.

...Which we can only imagine because this is the last episode of the last series in the classic Ben 10 continuity. But god damn do I wish we got to see it happen.

Since Skurd joined the rest of his species in seeding the newly-created universe with life, that means every DNA sample in the omnitrix is the progenitor of their respective species. So you could argue that this makes Ben the biblical Adam.

Hannibal was super active the last few days but of course as soon as I hear it's World Snake Day, he's in his hide and can't be bothered.

Ebony bit me when I picked her up, that hurt my feelings

Happy World Snake Day!

It is very important for my wallet that I lay low after Ubering in and out of the city so I could visit the Bronx Zoo. But I've been having such a shitty week, I could really use something to look forward to on my day off.

My vacation is three weeks away, and I'm going to visit the Long Island Aquarium then because admission is free when it's within a week of your birthday. My birthday is just over three weeks away.

So now, with all that out of the way, Evil Dead Burn.

Gruesome, mean, violent, and gory. If you liked 2013 and Rise, you'll like this. I think I liked those two more than this, but that's mainly because they broke formula and added more of an overarching plot. Rather than someone reading/playing a recording of the incantation and all hell breaking loose in a random incident, the deadites were acting with an organized goal: razing a path to the old family homestead of an archaeologist who was part of an anti-necronomicon society, so that they could find and destroy the Kandarian Dagger hidden there. The victims' story was also a bit clunky since it was about a woman who was forced to hang around her abusive ex's family after he died. She wasn't really forced to kill her loved ones so much as in-laws who always hated her. Becoming deadites simply just pushed them over the line into trying to kill her. Their taunting wasn't even that scathing, mostly just calling her a masochist for not leaving her abusive relationship.

That was the dog scene Twitter was crying about? You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me.

Seriously, who packs a dishwasher with all the knives and forks pointing up? And just leaves it open like that?

I wish they didn't put the scene with Thya in the trailer, I was holding my breath waiting for her to get the car headrest through the face. She was supposed to be the film's "main deadite", ie the equivalent of Henrietta, Maya, and Ellie, but I don't think her showing was quite as impressive as theirs. There was no talk of swallowing souls.

I did not love the way deadite Will looked. But there were plenty of other effects that I did love. Like the fisherman who was ripped in half and the other fisherman who was boiled to death and his hand's flesh sloughed off when stepped on. And Susan making out with deadite Edgar.

There isn't a lot of levity, but there definitely is a dry humor in how Alice not only stops reading the incantation, but grabs a jackhammer that was right next to a chainsaw. But I do feel like that kind of self-consciousness was holding it back.

I'm glad someone told me there was a second post-credit scene, but I would have waited for the lights to come on anyway. I don't know how I feel about Ellie from Rise coming back, complete dismemberment such as by wood chipper has always been the foolproof way to kill a deadite. Especially since she was cremated afterwards. But if this means Alyssa Sutherland is returning for Evil Dead Wrath, then I'll take it. I love my Maggot Mommy.

Looking over my photos, I really did miss most of the megafauna. Like I said, I had to cut my losses since I was on the cusp of a medical emergency without even attempting to walk around the Africa trail with the lions, hyenas, African hunting dogs, various antelopes, etc...I did get a distant glimpse of the giraffes, but not good enough to warrant a photo. And as I said earlier, a lot of the high-profile animals I did try to visit were hiding. I'm lucky I saw the rhino and that I was passing the gelada baboons on my way out. There was a sign saying the elephants were moved to the Asia monorail. Really should check that out eventually. Maybe next year. And maybe I'll cough up even more cash to see the Jungle World building where they're hiding the monkeys and tapirs and tree kangaroos.

I went there with my sister and her family...10 years ago I guess since my niece was a toddler, and back then I saw all the African stuff but missed out on a lot of what I prioritized today. The World of Darkness is actually a new exhibit and the slow loris is ones of the zoo's newest animals. It was hearing about this that made me want to go.
