Ha this is what finally got me to watch

So now it’s a war?

Ha, the fact that everyone who hears this asks me this exact question pretty well proves my point

As a non coffee drinker, it is my considered opinion that absolutely no one who drinks it is normal about coffee

When I see a lady wearing a tank top and shorts on the first warm day of spring

Great moment at THE BRIDE! yesterday when a family of four with two small children realized they were not in the right theater for HOPPER and fled quite quickly, though not quickly enough to fully avoid Jessie Buckley growling “here comes the mother fucking bride”

THE BRIDE! is the best film about a movie-crazy incel creating himself a perfect spouse and then going on a crime spree with her until [spoiler] since TRUE ROMANCE

Inevitable that Trump would wear a baseball hat to a solemn occasion, he was elected by the Wears Baseball Hats To Nice Dinners contingent

As this was happening you were told shoplifting and home invasions were grave threats you needed to abandon any pretense of sympathy to address.

(also these same personality types - or sometimes very same people - will end up “reclaiming” these very types of movies years/decades later once the risk of being “wrong” has subsided and they can finally prioritize their own enjoyment)

The caution with which cultural commentators approach anything that might be called “too much” is a form of cowardice that seeks authority, but in prioritizing “quality” above all else is repellent in its lack of curiosity. Who cares if you like DIGGER, how can you not be excited to just see it?

Richard Roeper’s 2026 Oscars predictions are here Get ready for the biggest night in show business, televised on ABC and live streamed on Hulu Sunday, Mar. 15 at 6 p.m. CT.

The Sun-Times abandoned film criticism once Roeper left the paper last year, so it’s particularly sad that this is the form of film commentary they’ll run: Oscar predictions by the former columnist oriented towards betting

Truly, all you need is a girl and a gun. Good titles help too.

Finally pulled the trigger on this, B&N’s 50% off sale was too good to pass up

Deeply funny for a Pixar director to say this

Winner will then become the only person who can afford it

"Who gives a shit about foreign countries targeting American soldiers in the reckless war we started?" is just a hell of a take for a White House press secretary

The median American position is that it’s probably good to bomb the Middle East but that this action should have no repercussions.

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

(I also don’t particularly believe that they need to take that responsibility, but that’s another matter)

I have a lot of issues with BB but end of the day, there doesn’t seem to be anything a show or movie can do to entirely dissuade misguided people from seeing bad guys as super cool.

There’s a big one in a couple weeks, but overall, they’ve made basic livelihood so precarious that any diversion from routine can leave you fairly destitute within weeks.

And wealth concentration removes labor power. Billionaires can never really feel the heat. If they want Trump, they’ll keep him.

It's hilarious that "working class" now applies exclusively to the racist failsons of regional car dealership owners but every unemployed trans person is an "elite".

Nothing more hurtful than discovering what you thought was a deep friendship is fake

Totally normal thing for Senior Counsel at DOJ to tweet out at 2am

Those reposting this with “Trump got played” assumes a lot about Trump’s goals and priorities

Now that they're trying to pretend their war is not a war, they've gone back to calling it the Defense Department.

Helps that they’re both from the same studio so you don’t have competing firms going at it

Slow week for viewing, this stretches back to last Thursday, but got to show some friends THE PRESTIGE and T.R. BASKIN
