I would not have had the success I’ve had with my book if Matt hadn’t championed it first. Send him and Judith your support!

Matt is simply the best. I owe so much of who I am as a writer and as a person to him. He’s an endlessly supportive force and his and Judith’s bookstore is a necessary and rich resource.

Matt is the reason I and so many others have careers. He deserves all the best in the world, and any way you can help will go to a truly good dude.

an excellent bookstore from which I've ordered many, many gems: novels, vintage mags, biographies, collected criticism (including by @jhoberman.bsky.social), rare OOP copies. if you can, support one of the great visual media scribes of our time

Few voices in the culture and media landscape are irreplaceable. MZS is irreplaceable. Not just a clever, cutting, and insightful critic, but a champion of other writers and artists in so many ways big and small.

Do yourself a favor: buy from his bookstore. Buy a lot. Read, read, read: mzs.press

MZS is a great writer and this is a great store. Just impulse-bought something I'd been wanting for a while and, if you can, you should too!

I just wanna say I’ve never even met Matt but I do know firsthand how many young diverse critics and writers he’s been generous to, hired, amplified and been kind to.

Matt is one of the absolute best critics who has ever lived. Please, please buy from the shop; it's a wonderful bookstore.

Have bought many books from @mzspress.bsky.social and can strongly vouch for its excellence in every way. Now there’s even more reason to make sure your purchases are from here.

This sucks. One of the best critics working, and a major reason I kept a subscription over there. Normally I’d warn people who dangerous this bookstore is to your wallet but now your impulsive decisions instantly become cool film and TV supplemental material and they help great people.

Matt & Judith have established a bibliocinephile’s dream store. Go shop!

You can buy signed copies of my book and many other fantastic books about film at the best online arts bookstore on the planet.

Matt has been a friend, an editor, and a mentor to me and has excelled in all three roles - please help where you can

I've been reading this guy since Glee was on Fox, so I'm going to find some books that I want but don't need and I'm going to buy them.

Layoffs are bullshit. Support @mattzollerseitz.bsky.social

One of the absolute best film and culture writers in the game needs a hand, y'all know what to do.

Apologies, am still quite rattled by all this, but thanks for catching that. Please support @mzspress.bsky.social and @mattzollerseitz.bsky.social however you can. He's done so much for so many and the thing that I can only hope comes from this is everyone showing up to support him right now as well

If you know my work, it’s down to Matt. He championed not only what I did, but what everyone at @brightwalldarkroom.com was doing when we first decided to have a go at creating a magazine. My entire career traces back to his generosity of spirit, and I know I’m not the only one.

Help Matt. Buy a book. It's all win-win.

It should be your absolute goal to make sure any film/tv/arts/culture book you purchase from now on is directly from mzs.press, “the arts bookstore of the internet.” Matt is the best of the best, human & writing wise, and when he needs some help, we all gotta help! Plus: it’s a fantastic bookstore!!

Matt has been a mentor and a friend to half the critics coming up in the past few decades. He helped me get my very first gig. His bookstore is a treasure trove of gorgeous art and behind the scenes knowledge. I can't recommend it enough.

I remember meeting Matt for the first time at SXSW a few years back when a colleague had just been cruelly laid off from their job for reasons that were also completely baffling. He was deeply considerate in only a brief conversation, offering what kindness he could. He deserves the same and more.

Are you fucking kidding me? I’m always pissed off by this kind of news, which seems to be coming more and more. Check out the bookstore below!

This industry is a brutal one where not even the most talented, insightful, and acclaimed writers among us are safe from layoffs, though this is genuinely shocking. Sharing to say you should support @mattstolz.bsky.social however you're able as he's one of the greatest people and writers out there.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

YouTube video by The Atlantic Did Netflix Ruin Movies?

Given that awards season is coming to an end, it felt like a great excuse to get @davidlsims.bsky.social on the pod. had him walk me through the history of netflix, how it ate hollywood, changed movies, tv, & a lot of our consumption behaviors. as well as what's next www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8gI...

The Cinema of Societal Collapse This year’s Oscar-nominated international feature films—especially The Secret Agent and Sirāt—tackle what it means to live and die under tyranny.

On THE SECRET AGENT and SIRĀT, the ways that both films capture the atmosphere of fascism, and how they embrace helplessness without indulging in hopelessness. For @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/cult...
