My SIL's book about French art history,

The best part is how I don't understand her very academic book about art history at all. Well, OK, 15%.

A couple of years ago my SIL got tenured and I legit cried. And then...I'm in the dedications of her first book and I was like, "I don't deserve this." She's the best.

Him letting people do huge fights and then stepping in is great.

My SIL is a French professor who when she goes to Paris, uses that staircase for exercise. She is so tickled by how its used here.

This is simply a beautiful tribute to Tom Noonan and also made me laugh so hard over the various versions of the subway story.

Aaaaaand now I’m crying over the ending of that. What a beautiful tribute to your friend. (Also, laughing so hard at the vision of his various versions of the subway meeting.)

Yeah it just didn’t work for me. That basic idea is great though.

Oh man that was such a disappointing watch for me recently. Outside of, of course, Goldie Hawn.

I’ll go Reds as well. And that’s mostly it.

I am not the biggest Warren Beatty fan but his version is fantastic. Great Elaine May script with Beatty rewrites and Jack Warden is fantastic.

The Criterion Collection of Heaven Can Wait.

A DVD surrounded by very snarky notes about rich people movies.

Every time I pack I’m delighted at running across these notes from a copy of HEAVEN CAN WAIT I got at the great Reckless Records. Because these are wonderful relics.

I want to cosplay Clancy Brown in it.

4 ends the saga so elegantly.

I got sucked back into watching 1 because that’s an amazing tight 1 hour and 40 minutes.

AND WHAT THE FUCK WILLEM DEFOE! I forgot!!

Why yes. After watching John Wick 4 I had to, of course, watch the bit about the fucking boogeyman.

The Continental Switchboard in John Wick 4.

I can’t decide it was leaving money on the table or admirable restraint that we never got a spinoff about the people running the Table switchboard.

These movies are so good about being about people choosing to be trapped in monstrous situations.

Just perfection. And that works wonderfully in Rouge One as well.

Donnie Yen in John Wick 4.

More packing and I have John Wick 4 on and come on, casting Donnie Yen is never bad.

Severance.

I know I’m years behind on Severance, but this conversation between Innie Mark and his sister is killing me. It’s…amazing writing and acting.

This list is great and well done and also this image is from the beginning of the most justified kid punching in a film ever.

one of my favorite moments of TNG is when Picard is immediately unable to contain his horse autism

I love my cats but seriously Saoirse what the fuck?

@erikabromley.bsky.social I’m
Catching up on the 2000 podcast from
Wednesday and I’m also a Family Man guy. I think it’s really darn good and under appreciated. “Salt costs how much?”

This just got a like and it’s about Pitch Black (2000) and I’m just the kind of dork who got angry about this.

Nice.

My take is...holy hell yeah, THE WOOD is awesome and deserves to be much better known. Great choice, Keke.

Will Stancil C @whstancil.bsky.social •1d Juno at 22: annoying movie, Jason Bateman's heel turn is bizarre. Juno at 38: actually devastating, also he's clearly a manchild grooming her Jesus Christ. Knocked Up at 22: Seth Rogenc is hilarious, she's gotta chill. Knocked Up at 38: this man is an actual irresolute degenerate? Leave him? 15 1 21 475 john-becker.bsky.social @john-becker.bsky.social • 23h John Cusack version of "High Fidelity". In my 20s he was super relatable and authentic, the record shop guys' relationships were great. As an adult, he's an insufferable misogynist and the squad is hella toxic. 10 3 3 141 •.. Tulley @hobostewball.bsky.social • 21h It's funny because the movie goes out of its way to say "These are bad people and not aspirational." There's a character who comes on for 1 scene and says so! And yet I totally missed it on the first go around

There is a thread happening about movies "hitting different" when you get older, but every example is just "when I was young, I missed the entire point of the film."
