Tonight’s motion picture premiere was Primate (2025) in which some humans who live with a chimpanzee for vaguely explained reasons get upset when the poor chimp develops rabies. I’m not sure this was an entirely realistic film, TBH. For a start, the (dead) mother who introduced the chimp to the family home was a professor of linguistics, and the father is deaf and communicates by sign language but is apparently an ecologist who writes books. How do these people have an unbelievably luxurious home in Hawaii? But they do. And if the father has to leave because he’s on a book tour and can’t be home that night, why is he able to get back home within an hour of realising something’s wrong? If I was signing books in a shop that close to home, I wouldn’t bother with a hotel. Anyway, the poor sick chimp gets all the blame even though it was the family’s fault it got bitten by a rabid mongoose (are mongooses native to Hawaii?) but I reckon they shouldn’t have had a chimp living there in the first place. If Alison from Monkey World heard about them, she’d come and take it off them no matter how many words it had learned on its iPad 
And then a rewatch of Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) because one should watch the most incredible film ever made from time to time
Finally, the end of S1 of Silo in which it becomes clear that when you get a contract for a second season, you need to introduce a twist at the end that will let you draw the story out for a bit longer
Goodnight all
