Pew polled Americans and they all said, in unison, “no take only throw”

happy anniversary to a great movie and a great movie phone

RIP Jean Gorin you would’ve loved Super Smash Bros

What’s striking about this clip, not even mentioning the content and substance of the message, is that I can’t remember the last time I saw a contemporary tv political talk show allow a guest to speak uninterrupted for this long

Chimed in here to say you should go swoon over His Motorbike, Her Island

A guy is smoking weed with his buddy and says to his friend "Michael, I think we might be cartoon characters." Michael, worried says "oh shit, better call Baudrillard." Baudrillard answers the phone and says "haha, no boys. From our perspective, this is reality. The first man says "well, that's a relief. Michael says "thanks Jean". Baudrillard says "no problem, boys. Au revoir." He then thinks to himself "it is nice to be the real Jean Baudrillard."

Yeah, I figured if ANYONE would have come to terms with His Whole Deal, it'd be you, but it's honestly kind of enough knowing that it still sits weird after all this time

this is basically a piece written for me, the guy put off by the edgelordy tone but also really into all the other stuff

I'm ready

Been watching Gangs Of London S3, I'm ready for the Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù supremacy

Daydreams and memories shine through My Father's Shadow In the sweet and arresting debut My Father's Shadow, Nigerian brothers spend a day in the city with their estranged father.

you are a COPPOLA, do not let them assimilate you

I almost crashed out over this in slack

"Bitcoin Biopic Starring Pete Davidson and Casey Affleck Set to Use AI" a headline made by top minds to piss me off

The source did confirm “Killing Satoshi” would be entirely creating the backgrounds and scenery in AI, with no shooting on location, and that AI would be used to tweak actors’ performances in place of re-shoots if necessary. “They won’t be made to say anything they didn’t say but let’s say the way they said it in conjunction with the movement doesn’t look perfect, you wouldn’t need to reshoot it. We’d just use AI to make it look better.”

idk, if I was an actor or a filmmaker or some kind of "artist" who respected my "work" I might chafe against "we'll fix it in post" quickly becoming "we'll have an LLM steal it in post"

a still from My Father's Shadow, a Black father holds his son on a beach

good lookin movie

The kids are great, Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù is great, the direction is excellent, and it makes some formal moves I love. It's a treat

Probably the best arthouse film you'll ever see where a kid plays with a handmade action figure of The Undertaker

Marimar Martinez was shot by Border Patrol five times.

DHS accused her of being a domestic terrorist.

She went to court to get the body cam footage released.

It shows Agent Charles Exum driving with his gun drawn.

Saying “do something b*tch”.

Ramming her car.

Shooting her.

It shows DHS lied.

Disney's live-action Chicken Little remake is going to make $3 billion

getting a custom live laugh love sign that says "I am languid & bedeviled & hate writing & hate everybody"

I have maybe never anticipated a movie more. I need it now

Jesus Christ Superstar has Nicolas Cage energy and I won't be elaborating

Scorsese saw that intensity's underside was equally intense self-destruction

Definitely. Caught it at a midnight screening at an Alamo, which is the proper way to see it

Lynch, Woo, De Palma, Herzog got it. Cher got it. Martha Coolidge got it.

It's a crime that Nicolas Cage so rarely gets to work with filmmakers who can match his freak
