He was just copying a quote found in the LA Times piece.

The HFPA didn’t have a “shred of legitimacy” to take away.

Putin invading Ukraine harmed Ukrainians, Gilbert setting a book in Siberia plainly does not.

Hanging out with ZODIAC MOTHERFUCKER, I hope.

That was enough to barely beat Across The Spider-Verse, made $55 million in its second week and already has a total of $225 million.

It’s been a while since I saw this gimmick account. But not as long as Reposted Avenged Sevenfold Fan Comments.

Correct.

Lawnmower Man? My understanding is that it has nothing to do with King’s work.

What is a “Podmass”?

Chapter 2 is bad, but Chapter 1 isn’t that good either. 80s nostalgia is not sufficient to make a movie good.

MaXXXine has not come out yet.
