I've read FALLEN STAR and it's great! If you're a fan of Bosch or Ballard, I think you'll love Eve Ronin.

This movie is so fucking fun. It knows EXACTLY what it is and sells it perfectly in its opening crawl. On the night of the last super moon, 1B people turned into werewolves. Tonight is the next Supermoon. 94 minutes of Frank Grillo vs Werewolves. A pure Drive In style good time monster movie.

How do you juggle all these projects? Plus a free development slate template to keep track of them all

Someone DM'd me (my dms are always open ya weirdos) and asked a very good multi-part screenwriting question -- How many projects do you juggle at a current time? What stages are they at? And how do you keep track of them all? Let's dive in! hollyweird.colbyday.com/p/how-many-t...

Netflix just added Michael Winner’s THE SENTINEL (1977) and John Badham’s DRACULA (1979) for Halloween.

It’s nice to see their licensing deal w/ Universal continue to bear fruit, especially w/ the deeper cuts from the '70s. #FilmSky #Halloween

One of Tom Adams' Raymond Chandler novel covers, maybe, collectively, his crowning achievement.

Have any other followers of @mrjoncryer.bsky.social received DMs from this guy—who claims to be Cryer’s social media assistant—asking about financial investments? He’s workin’ hard at selling me a line of bullshit, so heads up!

Is warsplaining a thing? Because I think Hegseth is warsplaining to Generals.

It’s one of those things where I thought it was our own term, that we made up. Had no idea it was in wider use.

Ah, I’ve never seen American Pie so I didn’t know that popularized it. And sorry if I came off harsh — I wasn’t trying to “actually…” you. I just remember being a teenager working at a supermarket in the 90s and my other dorky friends would talk about “a MILF in the produce” aisle or whatever.

This is fun! Two of my favorite TV critics taking a deep dive into my favorite TV genre: procedurals, and how they function in the 21st century.

Introduced my 9-year-old to CELLULAR one of my favorite B-movies. Chris Evans as an everyman hero with William H. Macy as an underdog cop and Kim Basinger as a very resourceful “damsel in distress.” Plus Jason Statham as the bad guy! My kid LOVED it. Parenting win!

Asked what JLA’d do to stop the latest scheme from Legion of Doom, Superman replies: "I'd hope that perhaps Cheetah and Captain Cold would join us in preventing it from happening."

"I know they're loyal to Luthor and do whatever he wants but this is so far over the line"

See how dumb that sounds?

Got some new art from an upcoming graphic novel in my inbox from @cpeterson.bsky.social. It's like Christmas morning. Look at the acting! Those expressive faces!
