the future of the site will belong to a capital organization that will find a way to monetize its decline.

Oh jebus fucking cripes Gossar. So your wife looked at your credit card bill and got pissed, leave the rest of us out of it. In what way is OnlyFans “online prostitution”?

“it will also be easy to see coming”

with the company making the change due to “mounting pressure from banking partners and payment providers.”

The book is better.
But Downey Jr. is 100% perfect for his part.

No, I saved the best for last.

I don’t know much about what the future has in store for us, but I’m absolutely certain mystic robes will make a big comeback.

Kolchaction!

“It’s a 1,000-year chess game between Hari Seldon and the Empire...”

I’m really bummed The Culture adaptation didn’t go through with Amazon. That’s the galaxy spanning sci-fi opera I really want to see on the screen.

Tony Maylam was actually replaced / let go / fired by the producers and Ian Sharp was brought in to reshoot the ending. I knew one of the producers and he told me that when they were shooting, a small London repertory cinema organised a screening of Blade Runner on a Sunday afternoon and wondered if there was any way…

However, he has seen The Exorcist about 167 times.

Whatever it takes.

I love that Keaton frames his disclaimer about not wanting to be seen as being “too cool” for superhero movies in the least cool way possible. “I don’t say it like, I’m too groovy.’” TOO GROOVY. Awesome. I love Michael Keaton.

I’m old enough that Robert Redford looms large enough in my pop-culture knowledge to not be overshadowed by Zach Galifinakis.

This movie entranced me as a kid. Yes it’s bad but I was really taken with the tone of it I’ve always been a fan of the hard-boiled detective encountering something beyond reason, I love the existential problem in that, even if the movies are bad. I think this film is more like “Kolchak goes action” than Blade Runner…

Watched this a few months ago. Here’s what I remember: It’s terrible, it looks cheap, and Kim Cattrall takes a shower.
