I bet Tom Hardy’s passion project is a film about the making of One-Eyed Jacks that culminates in him as Brando being whipped by...John C Reilly? As Karl Malden for an uncut 15 minutes.

Always nice to see somebody make a sad MRA callout and get slaughtered

Cardi B sure Tranqed that john...am I doing this right?

Companies keep fumbling this. I know it is a tentative date, but pressing the issue doesn’t make it look like they are “ready and willing to meet your entertainment needs!” it makes them look like they don’t give a fuck about their staff or the public. A ton of companies, countless really, were sending out emails the…

I do wonder why they don’t cater to old people more: The African Queen, etc.

I think the only way you could be disappointed by Parasite would be if you had some of the turns spoiled for you, otherwise you look around with about ten minutes left in the movie and you say “how the fuck did we end up here?”

I feel about Toby Dammit the way I felt about Tony Takitani when it seemed like people weren’t able to really film the spirit of a Murakami film.  Of course since then there have been other excellent Murakami films, but I thought Fellini going his own way brought something special of Poe out.  Sure there have been…

I’ll have to circle back to you on that

I finished it and immediately I said “That’s clearly the best film of the year, it will never win the Oscar.” And then I said, “But do I like it even more than Memories of Murder? (a 2003 or so Bong movie that I think is the best film of the century so far) Not quite as much but it’s darn close.”

“So what if I contradict myself? I contain multitudes. Fuck that other me guy.”

Plenty of people are in non-monogamous relationships.  It’s bad if the writer is trying to force or cajole her monogamous partner into a non-monogamous relationship, but having a non-monogamous relationship isn’t “immature,” that’s weird.  I mean, how is that entitled?  It’s entitled if she thinks her partner is…

sounds more like unilaterally opening it up, always Dan’s preference

“My partner doesn’t like ketchup on—”
“Cheat and don’t tell him!”

the first letter: Q: Do people in monogamous relationships miss having sex with other people. A: Yes. They do. Q: My monogamous partner in our closed relationship doesn’t want me to have sex with anybody else including someone of the opposite sex. Is that weird and controlling? A: not if that’s the understanding under…

I did like her column but I always had reservations that she would take an “ask me anything” approach and then be like “it’s weird that you asked me that” and not answer the question

Holy shit, my only knowledge of jazz comes from Damien Chazelle films...black people can play jazz?  That’s amazing, did white people teach it to them?

So when this show started it was pretty clear that the Reverend repeatedly raped the women.  Then that was downgraded to “weird sex stuff” and then it might have been completely ignored...are they back to “imprisoned and raped” or is the Reverend just a silly silly guy?

I hate the “click to the next page” setup of this, but at least it told me about one movie I didn’t know about (“Ladyworld” which sounds like “The Exterminating Angel 2: Angel2”)...not sure why this came up on my homepage a year after it was posted but:

just noting that they can put channels of tubing through rubber suits and run cold water through them.  Maybe don’t kill your cast.

If Pat Bateman is still alive then he’s a “Trumper for the economy”
