Media outlets are reporting that Stephen Colbert has already booked all the available dates.

Alice, Darling, Don’t Worry

“tastes are so kind of blue collar”

Maverick is lame regurgitated pap. Maybe RRR as movie-movie? That film makes Maverick look like Barney.

We get it, you don’t like Cameron and can’t fathom the idea that this film is actually, you know, good.

Not to mention Paul Verhoeven’s name is spelled wrong.

He was sensational in Good Time. Dude can act.

I laughed.

A reality that doesn’t, alas, require the narrative to revolve around him.

TAR is so overrated. Nearly three hours to tell us that... women can be abusive? That cancel culture is, uh, kinda bad but maybe not all bad? Blanchett is great as always but MEH!

It’s a good choice, although I like Akerman’s News from Home even better.

No, it’s definitely been controversial, with more than a few critics accusing it of fatphobia or just general exploitativeness.

Yes, I do remember being a well-off child.

Oh, look, another regurgitated piece rehashing the boring non-debate about Avatar’s cultural impact.

You’re right, pop culture website should stop reporting on pop culture. I come here to read about wars and genocides, dammit!

You’re still thinking of the first film; the sequel only has that single lame beach scene. The Northman is far more homoerotic in terms of 2022 films.

Petty to Lake: Don’t come around here no more.

Anthony Hopkins, Armageddon Time. He’s having such a welcome late-career renaissance and his performance in Gray’s film is outstanding. I’d nominate Jeremy Strong from the same film, as well.

I actually found most of the aerial scenes to be pretty inert and uninvolving, not to mention hard to follow spatially. Closeup of actor in cockpit. Closeup of another actor in identical-looking cockpit. Rinse repeat. The climactic mission was exciting, I’ll give you that, but also incredibly stupid.

First warning sign: that the subtitle is literally “The Man Behind the Legend.”
