Zuck’s lawyer in this (the lead from Blood Simple iirc) is such a fantastic character. He knows his client is loathesome, he barely tries to hide it, and all the other lawyers in the room are right there with him. No small roles, etc.

A lawyer who looks like Rashida Jones being like β€œOh WOW you got some HITS on your On-Line Web site??” is pretty funny

An astronaut is standing in a red lit passage, holing a rifle. A large alien creature with multiple eyes and body that seems to be glitching emerges from the smoky haze behind, reaching for him with a clawed hand.

Very interesting to see Expedition 33 analyzed in the context of French history & politics. Turn on those subtitles and listen to voices from all across the world - they'll expand your horizons and help you grow.

Christy Lemire Bids a Fond Farewell to RogerEbert.com A goodbye to one of our favorite writers with links to dozens of her reviews.

I offer a spirited salute to critic Christy Lemire, who is leaving rogerebert.com after a 13 year run in which she wrote about every conceivable type of movie. A total pro. Here's a collection of excerpts of work, with a note from publisher Chaz Ebert: www.rogerebert.com/features/chr...

Considering doing the same at some point. I've watched a ton of it on Twitch, and it doesn't seem much more jump scare-y than Last of Us Part II, which I *loved.* And clearly Resident Evil has a ton of cool story to chew on
