God almighty. Never fails. It doesn't matter which version I watch (original animated film, live action reboot, Broadway performance) -- once the first note sounds in "Circle of Life" ('The Lion King'), the waterworks turn on, and the spigot's stuck. Bawling like a baby, that's me.
When I first saw the animated film in the theater ages ago, I started crying even *before* I knew what the story was about. I guess it's even worse now that I know Simba's prodigal son journey.

Next was a fantastic panel at #UPenn on emerging issues in #tech, #IP, and #entertainment and #media #law w/Gideon Parchomovsky, Jennifer Rothman, & Christopher Yoo. This is a fascinating look at a lot of the issues that are still vitally important today (the panel is from the fall, & does seem to correctly call most of the cases that have been decided since then), and I particularly liked the discussion on rights of applying #AI to dead people.

"The children are grumpy"
I finally saw 'The French Dispatch' and enjoyed it -- not as much as I enjoyed (actually, loved) 'The Grand Budapest Hotel'*, though, but it has its moments. The first and especially third segments were my favorites, and I've got to admit I was disappointed with the middle (youth movement).
I was actually really looking forward to that part as I'd like to have seen a Wes Anderson treatment of a student uprising, but it came out surprisingly pedestrian IMHO. The slogan was actually the best part.
The third segment gave me the touch of pathos I was hoping for, but it was gone too soon. At any rate, great cast and a fun film to lose myself in for a time, but overall rather uneven.
* I loved 'The Grand Budapest' so much I bought the movie (if you want unexpected pathos in a funny and chaotic story, you'll get it in spades with this film)

"We feel less alone together."

Hollywood writers are fired up as they begin their first walkout since the 100-day WGA strike in 2007. “The studios truly don’t understand how their efforts to kneecap the writing profession have radicalized WGA Members,” "Murderville" writer Krister Johnson tweeted. “Do they think we’re afraid of a prolonged strike? That we’ll be begging to return to devalued and underpaid work? We’re not scared anymore. Bring it on.”
