Watched The Batman which I hadn't seen since the cinema viewing. Forgotten how good the film was. I primarily watched i in preparation for viewing The Penguin.
I tried to watch Once Upon a Time in Hollywood but gave up after an hour. It just wasn't for me and I found it quite boring just watching actors playing actors.
Instead, I went to YouTube and watched something recommended to me, Tom Hank's Electric City. It was originally streamed on Yahoo! back in 2012, and someone has saved it and upscaled it to 1080p.
It is an animated story of a post apocalyptic civilisation that has rebuilt to the stages of having electricity again. Everything is hard-wired. The city is under strict control by a secret group and the wired radio service provides entertainment and information and laws about living in the city.
However, a group of people have developed wireless radio and is preparing to start a rebellion.
My description is rather naff, but I recommend it. It's a shame it didn't go any further, as it ends on a point where you wish a season 2 existed. [YouTube Link]
