Hahahahaha.

It’s cool to do the Jay Leno posturing about Ferrari but tbh if I were a millionaire I’d absolutely get one of these haha.

This is the best sport in the world.

Maybe A Promised Land, too, that’s a barn burner. Although those of us who were like “it’s so cool there’s a new There Will Be Blood!” when it came out ended up looking like one-pump chumps who shot before the real thing…

You gotta catch A Different Man at some point.

Can they even hear this shit??

MB has released some bangers like Transit and A Quiet Passion and Full Time but there’s also a certain kind of sub-Sony Pictures Classics continental picture that seemingly only they will release haha.

Scream 2 may be even better.

I’m absolutely dying to see it. PTA/Nolan level excitement. Also hoping to catch Kurosawa and Leigh!

Anyway if CIFF sells out of The Brutalist during member pre sales my official stance is I wanted to wait for the 70mm print anyway. But if I get a ticket then everyone who says they’re waiting for the 70mm print is coping and seething. 😀

I just love how all it takes is A24 to announce a December release date for a movie basically no one has seen to get written up dozens of times as a new awards frontrunner.

Honestly late September to early October is my favorite part of the movie calendar because I haven’t actually seen any of the awards movies, most of which will be mid at best, but I still get to enjoy the awards race lol.

I strongly believe the first sentence of a review should not contain the word “backlash.” Just tell me about the book for fucks sake.

The front page of the Internet.

College football is so fucking lame now I hate it.

No other word for the Playtime print than revelatory. Had previously only seen it on a laptop lol. Instantly moved into my all time top ten.

FWIW the Vertigo print was a mixed bag. Did you catch The Searchers last month? I thought that print was mostly sublime.

Brady Corbet beat PTA to the VistaVision punch? Insane bragging rights wow.

Was gonna say this doesn’t sound right

let’s get that bread

I was just reading about him and his high school today. Funny.

I’m fortunate to (1) have an ear that’s pretty close to whatever Apple modeled their earbuds on and (2) not really give a shit about sound quality. Frankly I don’t think I hear well enough to be an audiophile lol. And I don’t like over ear headphones they’re always too heavy.

Yeah it’s buggy sometimes. Still beats the other place. We still haven’t started Bear s3. Girlfriend has very little interest in continuing. I liked it enough but never fully bought the hype. Industry hype, on the other hand…. There’s a show.

Which show? I can’t see what you’re replying to
