Happy to see The Terror’s intro sequence getting the recognition it deserves. They’re stuck in the ice, it’s cold and otherworldly, they’re all probably doomed. Done in a tight 30 seconds.

Incoming message from the big giant head!

Yeah, just listening to the music from the final scene several weeks after watching the movie still fucked me up.

Sa da tay my damie.

I’ve always appreciated that the Phantom of the opera spells our name correctly.

Anyone even moderately interested in science should check out the Episodic Table of the Elements. Each episode is about one element from the periodic table, and the host AR Moxon does a great job making it interesting and human-centered. He usually covers the element’s discovery, common uses, and how it plays into…

“FAIR?! Who’s the fucking nihilists around here, you bunch of fucking crybabies?!”

They have way too many all-time great characters for her to be the best, but Steinfeld definitely gets an honorable mention for how excellent she was at such a young age.

Well ain’t this site a chronological oddity!

I enjoyed lots of film soundtracks before this, but the first one that I really loved on a personal level was Clint Mansell’s score for The Fountain. Say what you will about the film, but the soundtrack is absolutely perfect for it - unapologetically dramatic, propulsive, always echoing itself. And the musical drop at…

Hey, that’s the Oh-NED-ders.

A friend of mine worked in Hollywood years ago, and said he got to read the Hancock script long before it got made, and his description made it sound like the movie got rewritten so many times, the end result was basically a game of telephone purple monkey dishwasher.
