It’s how it’s done:

“Well, we’re dead and we’re in Hell.”

“The song created by Preston Logan, performed tonight, will save the reality as we know it.”

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Alex Winter a few times. We live in Austin, and when he promotes his documentaries, he usually comes to town and does screenings of the new stuff, retrospectives of films like Freaked and Q & As and stuff like that.

This is the real Tenet.

Some comedian I was watching made the observation that Osama and Trump have a lot in common, both being spoiled, deranged sons of real estate tycoons, and now I guess you can add “they both have estranged, normal family” to the list.

Well, now I’m curious what the Raimi Spider-Man version of Superman IV: The Quest for Peace would have been like.

You ever stop reading an article halfway through because it’s so RIGHT about its subject material you can’t stand to watch it properly get the drubbing it so rightly deserves.

...Canada?

Err, yeah, I mean you can definitely draw new comparisons as AKIRA being about the future of the world but the film is absolutely not shy about its pretext being the bombing of Hiroshima/Nagasaki, the American Occupation (and the Japanese government’s collusion in keeping secret any wrongdoings), and the failure of…

What, you don’t want to see the 200M Expanding Ball of Flesh event?

“[ahem] TWO nondisclosure agreements...”

Sure, why not. It’s the CG part that makes me nervous..

Every Halloween, I show this movie to my classes and pause before the endings for the kids to try to solve it themselves with the detective page I gave them, and give out Halloween candy rewards for plausible solves. It’s the best part of every school year. And it helps to identify the kids whose parents are doing it…
