Tom Cruise made 100 million because audiences went to see him perform death-defying stunts on camera. Ted Sarandos made 50 billion for cracking down on password sharing.

Reservation Dogs is so good, really it is sort of an honor for it to be snubbed by the Emmys, putting it in the same category as The Wire, an all time great show that the awards shows are too mediocre to appreciate

Even the bonkers Doom Patrol show didn’t know what to do with Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man and made a joke out of him. Leave it to Gunn to crack these Silver Age characters. I love where this movie is headed, sounds like it’s going to actually be FUN.

I totally agree, you guys are screwed and can’t form families or buy homes, but I also think you’ve been taught some truly dysfunctional things.

Hot take: there are two kind of Scorsese movies, the good ones and the underrated ones. 

I caught that one on VHS in college right around the same time as I saw After Hours for the first time. It was 1987 or so and I was just discovering Scorsese and trying to catch up with anything I hadn’t seen.

The new deleted scenes they include likely won’t be as magically revelatory as the major ones in the recent remaster package of “The King of Comedy” were, but a guy can hope!!

After Hours remains not just my favorite Scorsese movie ever, but my favorite film of all time. Number two on my personal list of favorites is Hannah & Her Sisters which came out the same year and is also very much a New York City movie — though it is a very different take on the City. 

This truly is one of his best movies. It’s at least in the top 5. I’m always surprised by how many people I mention this to that haven’t seen it or even heard of it.

Best Scorsese movie, and one of the best movies of all time.

one of my favorite movies of all time. the real life horror of a bad night out is unmatched.

After Hours is my favorite Scorsese movie other than Goodfellas. Did he ever try another movie with anything like the vibe of this? Maybe Bringing out the Dead? That is pretty different though

We won’t review Silo but we’ll keep you up to date on all the hot news, like the latest Miranda Sings controversy!

Hey, would you mind expanding on this a bit beyond just teeth? It’s been long enough since I kept up with modeling/lighting tech that I struggle to know what to look for.

Based on just the teeth thing, can I basically extrapolate to “examine shadow quality?”

I watched this with my kids. While the story beats will feel awfully familiar to anyone with decades of movie watching under their belts, Nimona definitely stands apart for its characters and animation. The visual language feels different from anything the Disney/Pixar/Dreamworks machines have churned out. And it is

Luca was real good. Kinda unfairly forgotten.

This article is probably a bit unfair to Pixar, who I would say still does a ton of work in character design, aesthetic, attention to detail...everything we want. Elemental seems more of an issue with the fact that someone greenlit yet another story of “What if X was actually a bureaucracy” or something, and the

You beat me to it. Disney and Pixar animation both have utterly stagnated, being so beholden to their established brand and look. It’s animation! It can be anything, so why do the same thing again and again, stylistically? Even old school Disney recognized the importance of mixing up the visuals, and when you compare

Disney should take a bigger cue and try to do something different animation-wise. All the movies (starring humans) since Tangled look exactly the same.

Having dedicated most of his career to this space, Simon has a far, far more extensive understanding of this complex issue than you.
