Gentleman Doofus

I became very fond of Reaper because of its very easy pogo and its excellent dash attack.

The one that’s the most like Hollow Knight, which makes a lot of sense

Silksong players, I'm very curious what people use as their go-to crest. I've defaulted to Reaper at this point.

Good episode!

Fucking come at me, man. I will throw hands over Australian dogs animated for babies

I don’t know if this is a hot take that’s going to set off heated discourse, but I don’t care. I’ve gotta say it: Bingo > Bluey

On a business end, I find two legacy studios committed to theatrical distribution merging slightly less awful than a tech company swallowing a 100 year old studio. But on the level of personal ownership, Ellison is so much more odious than the Netflix people.

Paramount vs. Netflix was always a no-win proposition, but it’s still dispiriting to see Ellison strong-arm his way into owning half of Hollywood.

I have never seen a SCREAM film not directed by Wes Craven and I don't anticipate that will ever change.

JACKASS FOREVER was wonderful and would have served as a fine send-off, but the production was also severely compromised by COVID. I hope this gives the crew the massive finale they deserve.

Following up on this, but I may be in the minority thinking the KILL BILLS work better as two discrete parts rather than a single continuous epic. Part 1 is actively worse as a first act rather than its own film, especially with the tweaks.

She and I now have mutual TV friends.

My daughter now delights at the sight of Bugs Bunny, which I consider a massive fatherhood win.

The only thing I need from this film is a recreation of when Eisenhower took this fruity picture

Not sure I agree with adding back in The Bride cutting off Sophie’s other arm, which is both a touch too sadistic and creates a noticeable continuity error with an earlier shot.

C’est la vie

Baby-free hours are limited and precious, which means I am finally watching KILL BILL: THE WHOLE BLOODY AFFAIR, but I have split it over two nights anyway.

Frederick Wiseman in the editing bay

And the hits just keep on coming: RIP Frederick Wiseman, another legend of American cinema

Duval, in full priest garb, swinging in an SF park next to a child.

my favorite Robert Duvall role is where he appears as a priest on a swing for 2 seconds for no apparent reason in Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)

RIP to one of the sides gods

Definitely recommend the FALL AND RISE OF REGGIE DINKINS pilot, which is full of Carlock-Fey heaters and immediately the best use of Tracy Morgan since 30 ROCK.

My funny Valentine

Apparently they’ve turned THE ‘BURBS into a TV series, because when I watched the taut, gag-heavy films of Joe Dante, I always wished they had been bloated by several hours.

Maybe they’ll give it a proper push as a show of good faith for the upcoming WB acquisition.

Just leapt from my seat to watch that CLIFF BOOTH trailer.

Apologies to everyone, but it’s time to dust off some important relics of my youth.

Did not expect the one person to be totally locked in to whatever Brooks is doing here to be Ayo Edebiri.

Wow, this movie is *manic*
