When it comes to my meticulous selection process for movies to add to The Flickuum Project, I like to think that my track record in that has been bulletproof, especially since July 2024. And while I’ve previously rescinded fully guaranteed spots for certain movies, such as “Cats”, I’ve resisted the contemplation in doing so again.
But after finding it almost impossible to get the Jim Cummings-directed movie “Thunder Road” obtained via physical copy, along with the new/now facts that I both hate his character’s funeral dance (especially to music during the closing credits) and strongly dislike the way that Jocelyn DeBoer’s character was written, I began to exercise the rescind-and-switch protocol, which will cause the 2018 movie to switch places with “Coyote Lake” in Tier 13, as the latter of those two movies has continued to grow on me. And no, the former of those two movies won’t have the Inside Track at one of the 95 “post-La Mujer De Mi Hermano” spots, which is where I used to have the 2019 Camila Mendes movie placed. And why I say used to, well I filed for a refund via Amazon, as I stupidly ordered the aforementioned 2018 movie (format DVD) from a third-party seller in Australia through that website yesterday. Not a smart use of $23.48 ($10 American Express Rewards Points included) at all.
But luckily, the cancellation process was accepted, thus it’s only a matter of days (3 to 5) before the full $23.48 is refunded back to me. And once that goes into effect, I will order “Coyote Lake” on DVD, so it can be in the Evaluation Pool before this coming August 23. And given that the estimated arrival time (August 13 through August 15 at the time of this posting) for that DVD is very feasible, well it’s safe to assume that the first Camila Mendes movie to be fully guaranteed in The Project will be present before the fourth Sunday of this month. Now I can rest easy knowing both that the refund was approved, and that the three tiers of fully guaranteed Flickuum movies (1,787) will remain fully intact.
Tune in tomorrow to what will alphabetically go in place of “Coyote Lake”, from the standpoint of what is alphabetically next of the movies that will be confirmed “post-La Mujer De Mi Hermano” competitors.
