The thing is: Warner Brothers is too corporate and stupid to make anything good out of their enormous catalogue of Looney Tunes characters. Disney gets the mojo every once in a great while (Aladdin or Emperor’s New Groove). Dreamworks has basically cashed-out (though something smells synergistic with a new Shrek…

Zemeckis is going to Zemeck.

As a complete whole film, Toy Story 3 isn’t great. What happens in the first 2/3 of the movie? No one remembers because the the last 20 minutes are emotional mindblowers that blank everything that came before. Reminder: It’s mostly about Ken and Barbie; unctuous, occasionally boring, and occasionally funny. Then…

It felt like they sunk that Giannis Antetokounpous movie Rise in a similar way.

Armageddon is dumb ass through and through but I’m a sucker for an “I’m about to die” montage where the martyred character flashes back through their lives before expiring. Snape’s end in HP8 jumps to mind. That one is like 5 minutes. Armageddon’s is only 30 seconds, but it still buys back a decent chunk of the…

You could almost draw a line between 83 and 84 where if it was shot with a big cast, in 83, it almost always had a half dozen baby Brat Packers and their peers who hadn’t graduated out of bit parts. Michael Pare fell by the wayside because he was a little too old (compared to Tom Cruise, for example) while Diane Lane…

Doesn’t he spend several moments in this movie flicking around a butterfly knife? Which completely tracks... admittedly.

But you see:

This, To Live and Die in L.A, closely followed by Platoon then Mississippi Burning and Last Temptation of Christ both in 88, just, you know, four years in the life of Willem Fucking Dafoe.

Hugh Grant was set up in Glass Onion, so one would assume he at least cameos again.

The literal entire center of the country this weekend was beset by torrential rain and storms. People were afraid to drive anywhere let alone a movie theater.

East Coast Klan guys keep that part of themselves very hidden, the rest of their public personas follow suit by din of internal association, if you catch my meaning. Big secrets make the rest of the man shy. Plus I get that there was and is to this day a sort of scuzzy equilibrium held by mid to upper rich douche bags…

I want the schadenfreude, I want to savor the schadenfreude, this isn’t really giving me the pure schadenfreude.

I can appreciate fans wanting more Stringer Bell in season two and less Union Guys. I think I was probably in the same boat for the first four episodes, until I realized... oh This IS the main plot... By the time Frank Sobotka was grabbing and kicking the chain link fence I was totally hooked on his story.

The whole “key quest” started a little shaky, but peaked phenomenally. Josh’s house party and the “Under Pressure” sequence was in there. “Life in a Day” was one of the best one hour episodes of the year - of any and all shows going at the time.

I wonder if he’s late for projects where he’s an executive producer, because in his head, maybe it’s priced in. Jungle Cruise and Moana type stuff, no way Disney tolerates that.

“Beebo the God of War” ep9 season 3, Legends of Tomorrow.

I’m agnostic on Leto. Maybe he hits one for four. He was net neutral (no pun intended) in Blade Runner 2049, his Joker was ... whatever, can’t assume it was all him and not Team-Ayers. His rap seems due to off-screen obnoxiousness more than anything. I skipped Morbius, so i dont have that in my head. But hey! Two…

That scans a little better. Depp’s long death march through the northwestern coastal village does sound the same in both movie and soundtrack.

Hello from down in the rabbit hole!
