Warfare

2025

Super intense in-the-moment war movie with good performances and visual effects and excellent sound design. A lot of folks are criticizing this for being pro-America propaganda, I didn’t get that from it but that’s just me.

★★★★

The Panic in Needle Park

1971

Al Pacino’s debut as a lead, written by Joan Didion and her husband, whose name I forget. Pacino was great, of course, but overall pretty underwhelming and unimaginative story of a drug addict whose charisma pulls another into an addiction of their own.

★★½

Eric Larue

2023

Excellent casting and performance from Judy Greer off type as well as Alexander Skarsgård. Michael Shannon’s directoral debut. Good story, executed just fine.

★★★½

Add a Call Task to OmniFocus Shortcut for macOS

Add a Call Task Shortcut Icon

Here’s an easy shortcut I use a lot: create a call task to a project in OmniFocus with a contact and due date. The phone number is in the notes field. If you don’t use OmniFocus, this is easily modifiable to use Reminders or any other task manager integrated into Shortcuts.

You can download it here.
