Maybe there was some funky licensing agreement with the calendar publisher? I hardly ever see those old calendar images get reused, and most of the ones I've seen have been pretty sharp!
Sinners deserves Best Cinematographer simply for the fact that it's a modern movie where you can tell what's going on during all the night scenes
The Academy loves a silly walk!
Sinners (2025)
John Williams is on a 23-nomination losing streak: is he overrated?
I don’t understand, did Bari Weiss take over Slate, too?
Hey, let's hear it for perfectly okay movies!
back at the turn of the millennium, we used to talk about a thing called a "Slate take," which was Slate dot com publishing yet another bad take. it was their thing; no one else could compete. so this is kind of impressive, really. like manu ginóbili suiting up for one more game.
Why does Sinners not simply eat the other movies
Peter Thiel anagram is The Reptile. His middle name is Andreas, which means brave — The Brave Reptile.
Are all Reptilians fascist?
Get a coffee.

as the only person to have seen Blue Moon, I have to say Ethan Hawke did a great job but Richard Linklater is overly concerned with how short Hart was, and he keeps shrinking Hawke throughout the picture until it ends with him drinking while sitting on a spool of thread
Next time you see a car commercial pay attention to how many of them just show a single vehicle zipping along in a beautiful landscape.
My average driving experience is being surrounded by people in huge SUVs/trucks who are looking at their phones. The roads are often crumbling and gray.
this is unfair to ludwig, who by all accounts is *not* a monster and who makes *good* art, and it wouldn’t happen if someone had simply put jared leto in a giant jar in the basement of the mr belvedere fan club.
tim meadows didn’t deserve this. but jared leto does and the time has come.
Honeymoon Suite! Sweet.
Remember Javier Bardem is Desi Arnaz. That was Ricky Ricardo saying 'Free Palestine'
It's funny that I didn't think this movie was about coyotes.
They do these little comic book style cutaway charactee intro things. The likenesses are weirdly off, and they're pretty cheesy. But still kinda fun?
I bought that Treasury very much on account of the cover. But that calendar version blows it away!
Apparently I did see her in Barbarian. Guess I didn't realize. Anyhow, fuck Barbarian, that movie stank bad. No offense, Kate Bosworth!
Playing art director
(Or stupid shit I do for fun when I really should be working).
In my spare time, I occasionally like to monkey around with different comic book covers, changing the logos or other elements to suit my own sensibilities. Here are a few examples.
Haven't really seen Kate Bosworth since that Superman one she was in. She's tossin' off some vague Rachel McAdams energies here. Not complainin'.
This a nice lookin' movie! Rich, saturated colours. Very well lit. Pleasantly crushed blacks. Always nice to be reminded it can still be done!
This has been advertised on PlutoTV out the friggin' wazoo, and I just got uh access to Paramount Plus, so let's have a boo then
Amazing to see @drewstruzanart greatness recognized in this year’s @theacademy Oscar’s In Memoriam segment. We miss you, Drew. ❤️❤️❤️
Lousy Ides of Smarch
Happy March 15. Here is my favorite Ides of March meme:
