this is why you should *never* hit someone with an rpg. it’s dangerous, it’s shitty, and it’s wrong

I think Don Lee would be good and not too far outside the realm of possibility

Takeshi Kitano

a friend saw a test screening a couple months ago too i’m distraught

The problem with so many movies today is that they do not kick ass. More movies should kick ass. They should be like this

Bought too many blu-rays in January but had to make one last purchase before the BN Arrow sale ended. Arrived yesterday. Excited to dig in

Remembering the #cinema I #watched on this #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched

Happyend on Criterion Channel on Tuesday 🚨🚨🚨

I knew about the tow truck wars in Toronto but I did not know that MORE THAN 1 IN 8 bullets fired by guns anywhere in Toronto in the year 2024 were related to tow truck driver turf wars???

And the police force is not just complicit but LEAKING INFO TO HITMEN????

hype & kanye doing enter the void titles in 2011: plagiarism!!!
aidan & charli doing enter the void titles in 2026: wow she's such a cinephile

I think the way you arrive at a conclusion like “there are no new movie classics” is by not talking to enough people who like movies

Starting a thread of books I finish this year.

1. Train Dreams by Denis Johnson

I listened to some of this on a train but also on a bus and in a pizzeria. Those two things are not trains. Appropriately this book is actually fairly light on locomotives.

it’s like that bit from Megalopolis i’m sure

exactly! much more blatant homage is celebrated to the point that people cheer any reference to a thing they love. i think things were different in 2000 and if Requiem came out now the reaction to that would be much different

like half of American cinema post 1980 is homage but god forbid the influence is your very precious anime

weebs are so possessive lol

“if i ever watch one of those i’ll fast forward”

why does my boss know who lav diaz is

Imagining that the jokes in 7 and 8 were unintentional comedy is really something. I think a lot of writers misidentified The Texas Chain Saw Massacre as the primary influence for RE7 but that game obviously had more Raimi in it

#LastFourWatched

I’m watching television again. Saw the first season of Industry, a show that answers the question “what if Margin Call was a Nikkatsu Roman Porno?”

Beatles performances ranked by how interested I am in seeing them: Dickinson (could be good and funny) >Keoghan (will be bad and funny) > Mescal (Normal) > Quinn (naptime)
