I’d say you missed the best bit, but there isn’t one.

Didn’t see that, but yes. Whatever those supernatural powers may be, however. they clearly don’t include singing.

Her music video is . . . well, it’s something.

I agree. I thought the first two Avengers movies were fucking lame – not nearly funny or sharp enough, and visually flat (the first ten minutes of ‘Infinity War’ proved that the Russos have probably forgotten more about making memorable shots than Joss Whedon ever knew) – and I’ve skipped most of the other MCU films,…

Owen Gleiberman in Variety loved it – “a savvier and more high-flying fantasy than “Wonder Woman . . . a rouser of a journey” (I’m assuming that “a rouser” isn’t a typo) – and, of course, didn’t notice any of the anachronisms. So I’m prepared to believe this is a crock.

Morrissey could never honestly sing “I used to hate the blacks, but now consider me a fan.”

This news actually made me cry. And it took me a while to understand why.

‘Sound of My Voice’ is absolutely fantastic.

678 words to describe what’s in a video that’s already embedded in the (and I use this word loosely) story.

I’m not sure $26.95 (currently the top price on eBay for a ‘Flowers of Shanghai’ R1 DVD) or $35.97 (for a ‘Puppetmaster’ R1) are exactly ‘princely sums’. You had me excited for a moment, thinking I’d sell mine.

Without a doubt.

This video would be fucking perfect if, in the middle of her pissweak babble of mixed metaphors, non-sequiturs and solipsistic clichés, the camera began to pan slowly to the right . . . to where the monkey sits, playing those same five notes over and over on its harmonium.

Regarding the ‘I Got Soul’ sequence, I still think that someone, sometime, showed Kelly Cremaster 1 and he thought, “Yeah, cool . . . but you know what would make this TOTALLY FUCKING AWESOME? A song by The Killers!”

Someone – possibly a bot, maybe not – wrote recently that, such is his strategic genius regarding The Wall, “he’s playing three-dimensional chess while the Dems [sic] are playing checkers!!!” In fact, the notion of a Trump capable of playing even one-dimensional chess seems almost science-fictional in its…

I was on the fence about Meek Mill until I heard his Hot97 freestyle for Funkmaster Flex:

Avi fucking Lerner.

I wish I could say the same. Looked real purty, but.

MVP is, as ever, cinematographer Benôit Debie.

My wife and I went to see CK try out some new material a few years ago, at Largo in Los Angeles. For 90 minutes he worked off notes, which he kept in a folder on a stool beside him, and it was fucking hysterical. The most throwaway line or half-finished bit he did that night was a hundred times better than his lazy,…

I agree, on both counts. Though I wish Del Toro gave even a passing damn about scripts.
