If Four Daughters doesn’t sound like something you’d usually go for, just watch the trailer (and of course watch the film if you have Prime). It’s truly one of the most moving films I’ve seen. Have tissue and someone to hold onto handy when you watch it.

I don’t even know why it’s still called the 700 Club, we passed Pat’s 700th birthday a long time ago.

RIP Mary Weiss since this godforsaken AI-run shitshow can’t be bothered to report on it.

The real question is when are we getting a Pooh vs. Steamboat Willie movie along the lines of Freddy vs. Jason and Alien vs. Predator?

Vince Staples is hilarious (watch his Hot Ones if you haven’t seen it) and “Norf Norf” is an all-time banger. This show should be a blast.

Sunset Boulevard is such a perfect movie, I can’t imagine songs adding anything to it. But if the sets resembled the house in the movie at all, I bet they were incredible to see in person.

100% with you. Our old movie theater, may it rest in peace, used to do Met Opera simulcasts and there is nothing like a well-shot stage show. No movie version of any of these musicals could really do the staging or lighting any justice.

Honestly, I feel like I don’t really need any of these. Especially not Sunset Boulevard - we already have a film masterpiece there, somebody doing an assuredly less good version based on the musical is not appealing.

I think you just medaled in internet pedant commenting, congrats!

I watched Self Reliance and it was a pretty good time! Fizzles a bit at the end but it’s quite fun otherwise.

The movie being over-long is a really valid criticism, but I also think for some people (like me), the drawn out bit works in its favor. Getting into the headspace of a kid that age, the longer you go in a situation like that wondering when mommy & daddy are coming home, you run out of effective distractions and the

I loved Skinamarink but I think it’s really only watchable one time because it’s a particular type of suspense that won’t grab you after the first time. But that one time was a very very good one time for me.

I watched Landscape with Invisible Hand last night. What a film. I don’t even really know how to describe it. It’s not a comedy but it’s frequently funny. It’s very human-focused sci-fi, pretty thought-provoking. I was very much into it, even though it was fairly uneven.

That would be pretty great, actually.

I’m sad that Sasha Calle’s not going to get a shot. I liked what little of her Supergirl we saw in The Flash.

A movie where Jason Statham burns down a bunch of telemarketers? Fuck yes, I will watch this 20 times and if a telemarketer calls while I’m watching, I will answer and say “Not now, Katie from account services, I am watching Jason Statham as THE BEEKEEPER set your damn building on fire. You better get to stoppin’,

I’ll be shocked and impressed if season 2 follows the plot of TLOU2 to the degree that it would draw the same “reason” for hate.

I’m pretty meh on Zoe Kravitz overall, but if someone wants to take our best post-60s Catwoman, Sanaa Lathan, and drop her into a black & white Catwoman movie of “Selina low key living in a small town” and turning into a panther from time to time, that’s a ticket pre-order from me.

Every scene with him and Sissy Spacek in In the Bedroom was an acting masterclass on the screen. Still think that’s one of the best movies of the 2000s.

I enjoyed From season 2 quite a bit, but I can’t remember AV Club paying any attention to it.
