Katy Perry tries so hard to be sexy that she actually veers back around to being staid.

So wait, Hughie gets raped by deception?

Yeah the octopus suffocating so fast made no sense to me. They didn’t have to have her out of water in that earlier scene. 

- Though it might have been hyperbole, how could Ambrosia “smell Sage all over” Deep from the aquarium inside his closet?

Moore leads the film as Elisabeth Sparkle, the perfectly named star of an aerobics show, who gets fired on her 50th birthday due to her age.

Wild role for Swinton, and she managed to take a thoroughly ridiculous idea for a character, imbue it with all sorts of convincingly tragic pathos, and then have such a goddamn funny finish.

Two things that bugged me about this episode:

It’s astonishing how much blatant stuff this reviewer misses every week

And what happens to their January 6 plan?

I’m sure you had good intentions with this take, but it’s a fucking shit take. In the UK assigned seating has been the norm for years and it hasn’t affected a god damn thing. Currently I work in a one-screen cinema and people who show up right before the movie starts have no issue with getting a less good seat. Seems…

Which is not the point, at all. The point is not that there aren’t very talented nepo babies (and I like Jack Quaid!), it’s the unfair advantage that works to exclude equally talented artists from ever getting their shot. It makes for a industry more centered on and run by the rich and predominantly white.

“The premise of Severance is not good enough for a 9-episode, multi-season series, folks. It should have been a movie released in theaters.”

...what? my point was that young people are energized and excited about rep screenings and old movies, are actively seeking them out and learning.

“he ‘was able to get representation pretty early on, and that’s more than half the battle.’”

I like pre-selecting my seats. It allows me to show up 30 mins past the posted start time to avoid the 30 mins of trailers and commercials before the actual film starts. Although they appear to be ratcheting those ad times up, because when I showed up my usual 30 mins late for Furiosa I still had to wait an additional …

With most other nepo baby actors, I would dismiss this out of hand as a slightly more sophisticated PR tactic...

I like going to the movies, so, selfishly, I hope theaters survive. But I think audiences have made pretty clear that there are really only a handful of movies per year that they’re willing to pay for a full theatrical experience to see. And I don’t think that makes them assholes or philistines.

The Netflix model was not the problem.
