If he never left, we would never get Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, so he made the right choice

It’s the character’s sobriquet since 1981. And she adopted it specifically as an israeli-born Mossad agent. That’s actually what the term “sabra” means, it means Israeli-born jew. It’s a reference to ..”a tenacious, thorny desert plant, known in English as prickly pear, with a thick skin that conceals a sweet, softer…

Just saw Scott’s Robin Hood relatively recently, and the shoehorned politics was pretty funny. I’m guessing some of that is going on here. I never thought of the first Gladiator as something with a lot of depth (if very entertaining), but Joaquin Phoenix added weight to what could’ve been a thankless caricatured role.…

you know you’re in the audience, too.

My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullsh*t. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to f*cking want to see those.”

GIMME FOO GIMME FAI GIMME DABAJABAZA

perhaps they can also go on a side-quest to find Sally Hawkins

Lynch, holding nose and spraying Febreze: Totally respect *tssssh* your privacy for this scene *tssssh* Naomi I’m just - oh god my eyes - *tsssh* gonna be in this tent *tsssh* with twenty scented candles in it *tsssh* action!

I feel like one of the biggest delineations between Gen X and subsequent generations is that Gen Xers hold no expectation that a corporation should reflect their values, or should even pretend to have values. I prefer my corporations soulless, thank you very much.

Of the albums in this list, the Dehd album >>>>>>>

All of these lack that sweet Laurel Canyon sound.

I hope that this means that we, as a society, are starting to abandon arena concerts because, honestly, it’s the worst way to experience music. I’m GenX and it feels like that is when arenas really blew up. I went from watching bands scream at me, a few feet from my face, to hearing that they were playing as tiny…

Michel Gondry and Spike Jonze are the music video GOATs for me. Just an insane amount of classic, often inventive videos. Jonathan Glazer is right up there too, and then I’d add a guy who curiously never broke out into feature films - Chris Cunningham (Aphex Twin’s “Come to Daddy” and “Windowlicker” videos and Bjork’s…

Peeta actually had no parents, and was instead raised by two sentient loaves of bread. Peeta’s two parents, Boule and Injera, did the best they could, though they often struggled to connect with their son, and wished that they were people with legs and stuff rather than spongy, baked combinations of grain and water. Tr…

my current Star Wars hot take (esp after watching the prequels) is there’s too much exposure to the Jedi. They’re overpowered, and too self-serious. It’s like reading Lord of the Rings, finding Gandalf to be awesome (correctly), and then making all subsequent Middle Earth media about groups, councils, cities of…

I’m just going to note that Moana putting a huge, awkwardly-shaped shell on top the stacked rocks of her ancestors totally ruins that tradition for anyone else.

i want to see the one about grandpa Joe who, having pushed Charlie out of his ownership of the factory (some conservatorship mumbo jumbo; it gets real ugly in the court room), reckons with the loneliness he’s wrought upon himself in the search for solitude, Daniel Plainview style.

“The hope is that, like the comics, you can just pop in anywhere and have a satisfying experience.”

also i mean, take a quick look at his non-marvel work and tell me he’s a movie star outside of that.

“IF”? More like “OOOF”, amirite?
