I’m a weird case. But I would have liked to see a ton of movies in the theater. Mank, Da 5 Bloods, Possessor, Invisible Man (that one I actually could have caught if I went in time), Bacurau, Kong V Godzilla, Color Out of Space, and even Dick Johnson is Dead. I just love seeing stuff opening night with a hungry,…

Sadly, I’m right there with her. I’m a huge movie theater nerd and home theater setups do not, can not, and will not ever compare to that opening night experience...for me personally. But the discourse that bubbles up every single time a filmmaker gets upset about streaming (my home setup blows theaters out of the…

Do you suppose anyone involved with the creation of this ever had a moment where they finally watched five minutes of it strung together, in a screening room, and had a brief panic attack over how completely misbegotten it all was? Just the blood-curdling confirmation that animals’ real faces convey about…

I have seen that fucking thumbnail of Laura Dern, mid-face to make her look more stupid, next to the words “Complete Cinematic Failure,” so many times. And I always succeeded in avoiding the video on YouTube despite its numerous recommendations, until the day came that I actually had to watch it for work. And it was…

This, combined with its staggering ability to spread undetected, is why something labeled from the year 2019 will continue to put the brakes on society well into 2023, and then continue living with us forever after. It’s not a disease that makes your eyeballs melt, and it doesn’t have a 99% chance of making your ribs…

Fun show, nice little homages to Lynch and such, and it’s great to see Keener in anything. Real shame about the ending though, which felt totally cut off at the knees. Must’ve been a budget thing? Or COVID.

PWB is indeed a big deal, but I’m not sure about when placed in the context of doing a pass on a script for an action blockbuster. There are a lot of moving parts and there’s no way at least one hand wasn’t tied behind her back for the process. My guess is she was brought on to beef up Lashana Lynch’s part and give…

I mean, I get it. I do. But the originals have more power because they’re jerky! It makes the beasts feel more like they’ve sprung from a nightmare, and that you don’t want to get close to them. Who knows where they’ll be in the next frame?

I’m willing to step up and say that the years I came of age (early 2000s) were the worst for music. Hip-hop got significantly better once Kanye defeated 50 Cent and sent that glossy circus-music gangster rap to the grave, pop got better once the artists felt more free to experiment with different moods and sounds from…

“Mad World” was for sure the first iconic instance of it in the past 20 years, but trailers didn’t start going absolutely apeshit with this practice until The Social Network trailer dropped, with its childrens-choir cover of “Creep.” From there, the virus truly spread.

She’s one of the royals now.

Very excited to hear Andrew WK go darker. I also like that his idea of darker is Ronnie James Dio. It’s really just perfect.

Yeah, part of me wants to be able to look up currently playing movies in five years and be like “ANOTHER Lisa Joy movie? Didn’t her last three suck?” That would be progress.

Richards doing himself in with his own podcast is the modern-day equivalent of Nixon recording all of his conversations. Silly powerful white man, you could have gotten away with it all! You fool!

To point 3, I hear this from a lot of people. And actually, I’ve been quarantined at a home that has an actual in-home movie theater, with a fairly decent screen, surround sound, air conditioning and comfy reclining seats...so there’s no complaining here, not at all...but IMAX fucking detonates that shit. Arclight…

This is hands-down the best plane movie I ever watched (helped that the only other thing on was the Rolling Stones concert doc). It’s episodic and allows you to snooze in and out, and everything is agreeably chirpy and warm without quite being too saccharine. Plus, Isla Fisher is just on fire in this. I’m surprised…

Definitely some suspect comments in here, but on the other hand...the song is just a complete dud when you stack it up against all those catchy hits Lizzo knocked out last time. I heard it yesterday and it’s completely gone from my head.

I’ve heard worse. Train rhymed President with President in “Meet Virginia,” which still takes the cake.

Weird, I thought the movie was pretty much them at their peak. That and the Awesome-O episode, and the Scott Tenorman one.

This is nothing new for me, but damn it sucks that the only time I could theoretically join this screening would be Thursday at 2 AM. I’ll take London over Los Angeles for so, so, so many things, but damn “movie release dates” are fucking not one of them.
