Darkest Timeline JDP

That’s how I walked out of the theater. The late-game narrative hook felt a bit tacked on and off brand. I’m happy it exists.

Right. He also might spite vote. But he would have a hanging chad.

This was the one thing that caused me to audibly exclaim bullshit. George Costanza isn’t voting for DT either. I can’t vouch for Frank. George probably isn’t voting all — but if he did he’s sure as hell not voting DT.

May these go to a worthy home.

Hammer was the weakest part of the film. He wouldn’t be missed. Hell, Cavill’s Napoleon Solo could carry the film by himself. Alas.

This is good to hear. Though, I still get twitchy because the Ninja Gaiden NES post-traumatic stress still lives within me.

It has moments of beautiful filmmaking.

No direct connection that I’m aware of.

I laughed really hard at the black magic snowman three-way.

So—yeah.

I needed a new THE NAKED GUN in my life.

In that same thought, however, I’ve truly hated a few Francos — but I’ve mostly just been underwhelmed by Naschy.

Those bastards.

Stephen Colbert sets ratings record in wake of cancellation.

So that’s at least 3.5 dowdy Sandys.

All About Steve and Love Potion come to mind. While You Were Sleeping is more Jack Lemmon workaday schlub.

All true things.

We just recorded what may just be the most ramble-y episode of @cinemashame.bsky.social ever (an impromptu discussion of a very good movie still in theatres and a surprisingly entertaining movie from 1951 featuring the same characters) and honestly I look forward to doing more of them in the future.

Hey! @jamesdavidpatrick.bsky.social and @houseofglib.bsky.social are working on an upcoming episode dedicated to movies that try to convince us an objectively gorgeous woman is too plain for men to be interested in them. What are your fave examples of this weird phenomenon?

Worth mentioning because it just mocks the convention relentlessly for 10 minutes.

Twice. Three times. Movies need immediate and repeat business to register. We can do this. Let’s all go to the movies like we used to.

OKAY, GOOD ENOUGH!

Can everyone rush out and get this over a billion dollars so we get goddamn comedy in theaters regularly again

It’s a good thing that Donald Trump will forever be remembered as a massive pedophile. He used hate and division all in an attempt to escape his crimes. And he would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn’t for you meddling kids.

Y’all have got to watch this 😭
