Phil Kaufman's 1978 version is a masterpiece. (I actually prefer it to the Don Siegel original.(
Check out Abel Ferrara's "Body Snatchers" from 1994, too.
It's excellent,and highly underrated.
I've come to believe that Trump has fooled even himself into believing everything he says. I'll never understand why some intelligent people can ignore this fact and continue support who has to be the least intelligent, most obnoxious president in our history.
Pete Hegseth accused Iran of "indiscriminate targeting."
Dude, you killed 168 people, many of them children, when you sloppily bombed a girls school.
And when you assassinated the country's former Supreme Leader, you also killed the current Supreme Leader's wife. Way to win hearts and minds, Pete!
I haven't written one of those since 2003.
Used to do a pretty good job of it--if I say so myself, lol.
Like when Lee donned his Drac fangs in his "Magic Christian" cameo!
I enjoyed your Oscar prefix piece more than the ones I'd previously read in the NYT and Variety, Mike!
One of my favorite movie ads. Ever.
Definitely not an "audience film," though; not even in the '70s when moviegoers had more au courant tastes than they do today.
But of all Bob Rafelson films, it's the one that hasn't dated a whit.
Planning for #TrumpsWar is Being Done by the Very Stable Genius Himself #ABlueView π§΅1/3
if i were running dem party comms, all our people would today be talking about the president having a dance party while our soldiers are being shot at while gas prices go through the roof
Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.
I've developed a depth perception problem in my old age which makes it difficult to judge the distance between me and the car(s) in front of me when driving at night.
Factor in the high speeds on a freeway....a recipe for disaster I prefer not to contemplate any longer.
I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.
Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that donβt fit because theyβre scared to take them off.
The 25th is never happening.
Trump dances while he sets the Middle East on fire and the US economy nosedives. He is an ignoramus, plain and simple.
Christopher Lee was a fun Bond villain although I kept wishing he'd bare his Dracula fangs, lol.
Keeping my fingers crossed that Anderson and OBAA pull off the Oscar sweep that seemed inevitable until a few weeks ago.
PTA is just so goddamn overdue.
Even though I was just in sixth grade at the time, I found myself identifying with Pookie in an unhealthy way, lol.
The older I get, the less patience I have with animated movies.
Loved the first "Zootopia," but thought #2 was just so-so.
The last feature-length 'toons to blow me away were "Robot Dreams" and "The Wild Robot."
(Yes, there definitely seems to be a trend there, lol.)
A fun read, my friend!
(And better written than some of the "professional" pundit pieces out there.)
Glad that Tom Ford is finally directing another film.
KC was (and remains) underrated.
"Keep it Comin' Love" is a great f***ing song!
I donβt think unconditional surrender is imminent.
You're a very good uncle, Becks!
One and out for me.
I find myself constantly thinking that there is just simply no way that this timeline can get any dumber, and yet everyday it does. We have fully jumped the shark. Itβs over with. Send the gd comet already, please.
What a waste of her talent!
Let me say that if "Sinners" winds up sweeping the Oscars on Sunday night as many are predicting, Coogler & Co. should send a gift basket to that British dude w/ Tourette's from the BAFTA awards ceremony.
I positively LERVE "The Sterile Cuckoo"!
Most have seen it a half dozen (or more) times in theaters when I was 11 years old.
Weirdly, a few of those times were on a double bill w/ "True Grit."
