The Chi Butterfly

Among other things, I'm just so pissed that a country that once made winning WWII its whole personality is now building concentration camps

So basically giving whites even more reason to go out and shoot people with little repercussions.

Let's do it.....let's start talking about Sinners.

I was speechless last night & I'm still a bit speechless. Need to see it a couple more times before I do a proper review, this is just a first viewing reaction but y'all, mess with me.

This movie is a masterpiece

The saviors Easter message:

I love that Taurus is so straightforward & fixed that all of our sign/categories are the same across 😂😂😂😂

Pisces is the only one that had a little *slight* variation

“Low low low, high high high, low low low, medium medium medium…” 😂😂

A tale of two movies:

Similar deal structures. Similar budgets.

One made $45M from 3300 screens, post pandemic, and won the weekend.

The other made $41M from 3600 screens pre-pandemic, and placed second.

And yet this is the coverage.

Beyond the fact that I love this photo, I think about this concept ALL OF THE TIME. As an archivist, I am really conscious of the fact that it's likely we'll have a more robust understanding of the 18 and 19th centuries than of the 21st century. Why? PAPER.

That was great. A vampire movie that's a lot more than just an excuse for vampire horror. Steeped in Depression Era Black history and culture, and powered by the Mississippi Delta blues (the music was brilliant), it's really like nothing I've seen before on the screen.

Why are there never stories about why people vote the way they do in black communities in Alabama or Mississippi? Why is it always the uneducated white people in poverty who need to be ‘understood’? 🤔

The fight in Mississippi is going on!! Nice job!

YouTube video by Kodak Aspect Ratios with Sinners Director Ryan Coogler

Warner Bros and Kodak released a 10+ minute video of Ryan Coogler explaining how he shot Sinners on film and how people can see it in different formats in theaters. This is some of the best film promo I’ve seen in years.

I had been trying to avoid promoting anything from Warner Bros lately because I have extreme trust issues with that studio.

That said, this breakdown of film format from Ryan Coogler (the director of Sinners) for Kodak must be seen.

not going to say the timeline would have turned out way differently if elite universities had just told Elise Stefanik to fuck off a year ago, but it probably wouldn't have hurt

what a horrible feeling it is to pay taxes to this infernal country

Before weighing in on whether you think that it should be OK to deport American citizens to El Salvador prisons, I want you to consider that we're even discussing it.
