All due respect to what you like in movies, I personally find jump scares too cheap. I found the creepy dude that floated a foot off the ground way scarier than any jump scares could have. Sure, they add tension, but movies like the first Resident Evil just abuse them way too often. It just becomes startling, not…

Now he’s written a movie featuring Chloe Grace Moretz as a hero fending off a “leery all-male crew,” as the Hollywood Reporter put it. They do say to write what you know.

“American Ultra”

Between this and making a movie for Woody Allen, Chloe Moretz can fuck right off.

It’s really amazing how much both he and Josh Trank managed to immediately piss away the mountain of goodwill they had after Chronicle.

Hey now; I thought Bright kicked ass.  So did everyone I personally know who's seen it, which is like, three other people.

Putting aside the gross behavior, this guy seems incredibly untalented and, most importantly, unbankable, like a homely, behind the scenes Zac Efron.  Why do these guys get so many opportunities to waste people’s money?

Shout out to Nicolas Cage for Mandy and his voice work as Spider-Man Noir (Into the Spiderverse) and Superman (Teen Titans Go! To the Movies).

It gets overused, but Tess Thompson really is “versatile.” I barely realized it was “Valkyrie”in Annihilation and Sorry to Bother You. That’s some solid range. I’m psyched to see her in the new MIB (and, fingers crossed, Endgame).

I'm a fan of Amy Adams, but Lois Lane should have been Elizabeth Banks from day one.  

And it gets better, he used to work in the film industry! So we can trust his opinion. lol.

“Lovecraft Country” is an amazing, amazing novel. Read it ASAP.

I really, really want them to do a version of The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury. If anyone can do it right, it’s them.

I’m really happy that Peele is sticking with the horror genre. The horror genre desperately needs some new ideas and perspectives.

To their credit the reason I’m so put off is that they they convey this so well. The fear and loneliness of a little girl taken out to the woods by adults crying for her parents only to just be killed...why is there so much dust in the air right now!?!

Laika can always take my money.

But, really, I want an X-23 mini-series about Laura’s adventures in Canada post-Logan.

As long as Lyra kills a bunch of dudes with her claws (made of Dust), I’m good.

My mother used to read Greek mythology to me when I was babby-sized, Clash of the Titans still makes my 6-year old self’s eyes pop out of his head.

Maybe she’s just pissy about being pregnant for longer than an elephant.
