Despite living in LA all these years, I'm finally seeing "The Whole Bloody Affair" this upcoming Thursday. AMPED.

It would've been almost as good as when I saw Inglorious Basterds in the theater when it came out, and after being on such a high walking out, I hear this girl ask her boyfriend, "Did that really happen?" Even more of a high!

I'm sorry, but seeing THAT less than a week after I had a conversation with my Nigerian mother -- who was born just a couple of years after Britain finally "gave" Nigeria back their independence -- about chicken tikka masala being Britain's "national dish," I've been extra sensitive about this shit.

fixed it for ya: "Britain welcomes migrants whose contributions to our economy and society we can take and claim for ourselves."

Funnily, while I was watching Pluto TV in my hotel room yesterday -- spent the day watching Tom Cruise flicks before having the best steak dinner of my life -- there was a Disaronno ad. Either the surveillance state is getting better OR the only place you'll see Disaronno ads in 2025 is Pluto TV.

How many times in your life have you said, "ACTUALLY, it's fantasy!" I know I've said it a lot.

"BOOP!"

never heard of *check notes* the incredibly successful and popular show from 20 years ago that had a sequel series 10 years ago

Before I click: Will I find this scary?

I was honestly shocked it wasn't ScreenRant... but not shocked it was CBR.

Gotta get back on my The Newsroom-esque "mission to civilize" writing as a whole because of shit like this.

"This Forgotten Sci-Fi Epic Still Has the Greatest Pilot Episode of All-Time"

The "forgotten" sci-fi epic in question? Heroes. You know, that little hidden cult TV gem, NBC's Heroes.

Also, I think a WNBA player just bumped into me. (It was a Black woman with nice braids who was significantly taller than me, so, you know, I assume.)

Spending the weekend in El Paso, so you can bet your ass I'm gonna drunkenly sing about the goddamn stars at night.

Boarding a plane right now, but just might hit you up about this.

I really thought adulthood would be a whole lot of ordering Disaronno on the rocks, and it's just... not been that.

tired: The Suicide Squad is now versus the Stranger Things

wired: Oh, what a night -- Netflix is bringing back The WB 🐸

Kill Bill’s Complete Journey From One Movie to Two, and Back Again Twenty-three years after Quentin Tarantino envisioned his Uma Thurman–starring saga as a single epic film—then split it into two volumes—‘Kill Bill’ has been reborn. But how does ‘The Whole Bloody Aff...

Good morning! I did a lil' archival dig (my favorite kind of work!) and traced KILL BILL's evolution from one movie to two and back for @vanityfair.com. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/st...

This is the entirety of his bio on the official Vandy roster

Please let this happen!!

This was a fun recording where I, once again, unfortunately, could not shut up

Today's whole "Strong Floor, No Ceiling" headlines--Jeffries's latest idea.

"We Here For You."

Have you ever been to a live indy though? If not, I've gotta take you to one. (Sadly, the best experience other than PWG we would go to back in the day was Bar Wrestling. But: FUCK JOEY RYAN!)

I was gonna say "indies!" but PWG is basically gone and Prestige is closing (there are others but those were my guys). I'll always rep TNA though.

Counterpoint: It's a lotta lawyers. Makes ya think.

marital status: I am currently watching every single Law & Order series (yes, including oner spin-offs like Trial by Jury, which I did have to illegally download) concurrently.

The Fractured Mirror: Nathan Rabin's Happy Place's Definitive Guide to American Movies About Filmmaking Nathan Rabin's Happy Place's Definitive Guide to American Movies About Filmmaking

Some bad news. The great film and culture writer Nathan Rabin was in a serious car accident. He is expected to recover, but he has a rough path ahead. Now is a great time to buy his new book (I just did, looks cool!) - a thorough investigation of movies about movies.

1) Yes, there damn well should be.

2) I'm just gonna pretend that @lafergs.bsky.social hacked into the Vulture account to write this.

That's my local jackass!
