Bahahahahahahahaha!

Get fucked, AI bros.

Racist president

This administration is hands down the most vile and racist administration of my lifetime.

LMAO

Billionaires suck

“Uncertain value.”

In other words Netflix isn’t MAGA enough.

The worst of the worst are buying everything out. Eventually movies, shows, news, and entertainment as a whole will be catered to MAGA.

The economy is FAR WORSE than the government is acknowledging. This holiday season, if you know folks struggling, don't be afraid to leave a mystery box of groceries or some gifts from Santa for the kids on their porch. Maybe drop a grocery store gift card in their mailbox.

Be the Christmas magic.

Removing free entry to National Parks on MLK Jr. Day and Juneteenth, but making it free on Trump’s birthday is unequivocally fucking racist, don’t you think?

Writing

A little reading, then a little writing.

Now he’s going after Matthew Lillard? C’mon, dude…

COMIDA!

Cheers, my friends. Hope this weekend has brought you what you needed. 🍻

*spends almost $100 on groceries*

Cool. I have enough to feed more for… two days.

Spawn soundtrack

Song still goes hard.

Vampires

Me as a physical media collector looking at everyone else.

But why bother if you know you’ll have it streaming in a month or two?

It had already been pulled from the majority of cinemas here after a month. And those that still have showings, it’s one or two screenings late in the evening. I loathe this model the studios having been doing since, what, Covid?

People will go to theaters if you keep movies for extended periods!

I hate that “Predator: Badlands” cost as much as it did, only because I knew it was going to suffer a precipitous box office drop due to “Wicked: For Good” releasing shortly after. And “Zootopia 2” after that.

Doomed to make its money back. Should have released early October. Or stay longer!

Very much this. Also, let the goddamned movie you paid a fortune for, stick around longer. ("Predator Badlands" cost $100 mill, and was on my local cinema for about 10 days before it was yanked...and I never got to see it. I saw "Star Wars" again in 1978...5 months after it first opened!)

Breakfast

Good morning, chilaquiles. Can’t wait to eat you.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!

Movie

I originally read this as “A Grand Ole Orgy Christmas” and was like, “Oh, okay… interested maybe 🤔”

It’s the tiny few wanting to gain a little more profit and they’re fucking everything up.

I hate it all. This shouldn’t be allowed.

This has lead to a bottleneck in which established voices can make their dream projects, while new & diverse voices are struggling to get noticed, read, or their writing sold. I've never seen anything like it in my 25 years in the business. If things were hard for you before, they're even harder now

I haven't been very optimistic with y'all because I haven't been optimistic lately. 1/3 of shows, and thus writers rooms, are just gone. Because horror is one of the only things doing well, everyone is writing horror. But there's too much of it. Hollywood cannot make all the great scripts out there.

Metal

Bands

You could say I kind of listen to metal…

I’ll be honest with you: I think the AVATAR films (so far, haven’t seen the latest) are fine. I enjoy them enough. Big sci-fi spectacle. Gorgeous to look at.

But if this does end up being the last one, I’m fine with that because that probably means we get to see Cameron work on something else.

I see this as a plus not a minus these days. We now have a new trope of character who will do the stupidest thing possible just because some snowflake told them they shouldn't because it is dangerous and god damn if we all don't have that uncle or co-worker.
