Blessings to those who have gone before. Blessings for a new turn upon the wheel. Love to our families as the year darkens, to have the light soon reborn.

You have confetti in your hair. Do you want me to get it out for you? Are you excited for the new year?

Story summary:

Throughout their lives and their time in the navy, Tom Kazansky and Pete Mitchell had dealt with a lot. They had flown dangerous missions and taught annoying people. They had killed, and lost, and grown. And throughout it all, they had fallen in love. The only problem was that the navy, especially in the eighties… and the nineties… and the zeros… and well, never. The navy had never approved of queer people. And so no matter the pain, no matter the cost, they both decided never to act on their feelings. As time went on they knew that the other felt the same way but… the navy was their life and they couldn’t lose that.

So year after year they worked together and laughed together and grew old together. But never in the way they truly wanted to.

Until Tom got a call from the doctor.

Chapter summary:

Pete is a little shit, and Carole and Bradley invite the two of them over for New Year’s Eve.

💖 "Um… H-Happy New Year, Angel!" 💜

"Three… Two… One…! Wait— D-Do we kiss now?! I've never actually spent New Years with anyone before, so—"

Immediately shutting your now fiancé up, you playfully roll your eyes and pull Ren in for a soft, slow kiss. Even underneath the incandescent glow of the fireworks, you can see how his cheeks flush a bright pink as he gently clutches onto your winter coat to bring you closer. And when you pull away, his smile only seems to grow.

"Thank you for making this year special for me, Angel. I-I promise to make 2024 even better for you." Ren's eyes light up with sincerity as he seals his promise with another kiss, "…I love you s'much. Happy New Year."

Now Is the Perfect Time to Watch Some Movies Set in 2024

Now that we've made it to the new year, why not enjoy some old visions of it? I at least love to start the first few weeks of a year by going through the films set in the new year, as listed marvellously by Wikipedia.

Because I'm interested in old visions of the now-present, I usually skip movies that were produced in the last ten years. Because these usually don't provide very bold predictions. This criterion leaves the following seven entries for a Get Ready for '24 watchlist:

Beyond the Time Barrier. A 1960 time travel flick. Never heard of it. A quick look at the plot reminds me of Return to the Planet of the Apes. Which I kinda liked for its batshit abstrusity. Anyway, the movie is short and exactly what I'm looking for. So I'll definitely try to somehow get my hands on it.

A Boy and His Dog. This 1975 movie likely is the most notorious of this list. Not sure how well the film has aged, but it has been loitering on my to do list for years now, so the stars are aligned as good as never before.

Highlander II: The Quickening. Very likely to be the worst movie of this list. Haven't seen it yet, I think (or I forgot it after watching). And I haven't heard anything good of it, but at least it tells a story related to climate change. Which is better than nothing, I guess.

The Thirteenth Floor. I absolutely l o v e the German TV movie "World on a Wire", and Thirteenth Floor is a remake of this. I watched it once, but before seeing World on a Wire. So although Thirteenth Floor has only on small bit of its plot actually taking place in 2024, I really look forward to a rewatch of this 1999 production.

.hack//The Movie. A 2011 CGI anime movie. Never heard of it, but why not.

Underworld: Awakening and Underworld: Blood Wars. I remember liking the first Underworld movie, and I don't recall much of the other four films. So I think I'll use the final two installments playing in 2024 as an excuse for a rewatch of the whole series.

Narcopolis. This is a 2015 movie, so my Older Than Ten Years rule technically disqualifies this entry. But I'm quite intrigued by the story of a UK that has all drugs legalized. So I'll give it a watch.
