A Happy Birthday to one of my formative actor crushes, Daniel Craig.

Better to speak my peace here than the other site.

As a lifelong SCREAM fan, pains me to say but I haven't seen the new one this weekend.

Besides the fact that it looked generic, both the studio and the toxic fandom have decimated any excitement or curiosity I would've otherwise had.

Even though I was mixed on the film, I still hunger and thirst for THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE to get a planned physical media release.

Also, the best movie of 2025 IMO, IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT is available on Hulu as well.

"Surfacing" Review Poignant messaging and capable central performance keep this queer romance afloat.

By some miracle, I've managed to finish a review today. For this post, I did a review of the Canadian queer romance SURFACING which is available on VOD. Take a look and feel free to like and subscribe!

Trans Continental Pipeline-Donate to help queer relocation! At TCP, our mission is to help Queer and 2SLGBTQIA+ people move from unsafe environments to Colorado and provide connections and resources through our relocation program.Every Cent you donate will go ...

Devastated by the news of what's happening in Kansas.

Attached is a link to an organization dedicated to helping trans people relocate from unsafe states to Colorado.

BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.

Continuing to feel stressed through the roof about everything, but I'm feeling at a low point where I want to carry on alone and sulk in silence right now.

Not a permanent feeling but we're all freaked out and I just don't want to feel like a weight on anyone...

Personal Best Actress Winners (1990-Present) My personal Best Actress winners from 1990 to now. Also, side note: I go by U.S. release/Oscar eligibility when picking each winner.

Back to just-for-fun Letterboxd list making. My newest one is my own personal Best Actress winners from 1990-present.

Fair. If it's any consolation, he's not a writer on this show.

Okay, I'll probably watch that new Love Story series....

KPOP DEMON HUNTERS deserves to be on Criterion. But while you’re at it, Netflix, a team-up with Lionsgate to do a 4K release of the KNIVES OUT trilogy wouldn’t suck either.

Since not only more Netflix films but animated Netflix films (KPOP DEMON HUNTERS, GDT'S PINOCCHIO) are joining the Criterion Collection, I vote for NIMONA to join the ranks.

Love this movie so much!

Exactly. Even if I'm like Penn or del Toro if he wins SAG, my guess is as good as anyone's.

True. Granted, Penn not being the most well-liked personality hasn't stopped him from winning twice. But at the same time, things have changed since the 00's.

Cool that KPOP DEMON HUNTERS and FRANKENSTEIN are joining the Criterion Collection, being the latest Netflix films to do so.

But also, still waiting for ATLANTICS to join like...

I feel like people cannot understand you can hold two thoughts in your head: it is really horrifying that Jordan and Lindo went through something deeply hurtful publicly. People with mental illnesses/neurological conditions have the right to exist in society even when their illness is not easy

98th Oscars: Chaos Brought On From Across the Pond A post-BAFTA write-up on the state of three of the acting categories in the current Oscar race.

Over at Cinematic Words of a Chaotic Gemini, I did a post-BAFTA write-up on how aside from Jessie Buckley winning Best Actress, every other acting category is a glorious toss-up. Take a look!

Fun trivial fact:

If, or when, Jessie Buckley wins the Oscar for HAMNET, she'll be the first Irishwoman to win Best Actress and the second Irishwoman to win an acting Oscar after Brenda Fricker who won Best Supporting Actress for MY LEFT FOOT in '89.

Also, Jonathan Bailey.

I even enjoy watching him have great chemistry with an alien. Then again, I even imagine him having good chemistry with a lamp.

The PROJECT HAIL MARY trailer is another one I'll probably see an upteenth amount of times.

Then again, who am I to complain about constantly seeing Ryan Gosling's face on a big screen?
