I don't want to do back-to-back entries, but I'll drop a hint. There's a book adaptation taking place in 1959 with a 7.9 IMDB rating that's on the National Film Registry.

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE is another flop.

It is. "but"

While it has since found a second life and generated strong viewership numbers on Prime Video, its theatrical run was a definitive box-office disappointment.

Pretty much what LilCerberus posted.

I wasn't expecting Radu Jude's name to appear at the end of that review. That's probably a bigger/better twist than any in the film itself.

DRACULA (2025): The Romanian one. A Romanian director wants to make a movie about Dracula but he has no good ideas, so he asks A.I. for assistance, resulting in about a dozen absurd short films. A pair of actors are hunted by vampire killers who've paid for the privilege, there's an adaptation of a classic gothic horror story, and Vlad the Impaler appears as a fascistic boss with a robot sidekick, and so on, with each scene including deliberately ugly A.I. enhancements. Mostly obscene, occasionally amusing and sometimes even witty, but you get the distinct feeling Radu Jude made this scattershot satire/parody to amuse himself, not you. 2/5.

August: "The Psychology of Money" by Morgan Housel

This is the best book on investing I've read. Explains why people make the financial decisions they do with perceptiveness and a wide context, plus fantastic stories and useful general advice. Not quite 101 level, because it presumes you know the basics about stocks and bonds, but easily second-semester econ stuff. Highly recommended.
