I hope to someday think something is as funny as millennial podcasters think the word “unc” is

Actually opened YouTube to type this in, and got pissed when I realized it was a joke

I think where I’m at is Pauline Kael > Andrew Sarris. But Sarris disciples > Kael disciples. Mainly bc the things that make Pauline special (prose style, humor, reckless overconfidence) are basically impossible to replicate if you’re less talented than she was

Jay-Z’s “one hot album every ten year average” line is so cutting that no one questions him referring to 1994-2001 as ten years

Well, I didn’t vibe with If I Had Legs I Would Kick You like the rest of you did. But it did make me scour this lady’s wikipedia page in a panic. So that’s something

Jeff giving the whole speech about this being where you punch your ticket to 50, and the two people actually on 50 have their ally blindsided lol #Survivor #Survivor49

Add that up over a week, I’m gonna kick your butt. Add that up over a month, you’re toast…

By coincidence I received a text today that someone made a TQ placard for their wedding

An orange cat curled up asleep using his tail as a pillow, looking not unlike a croissant.

Left it until the last minute, but I got a pumpkin.

One thing we learned from Ernest Dickerson’s Q&A was that Billy Zane used to carry around a trunk of toupees that he had directors choose from. He was very excited to be bald here

Three watermarks. No one else is grinding like this

Was having a bad week when I caught the kind of cold that can only ruin your day in a bad week

Wow. Just got a preview of the version of this ad for the MLB playoffs starring all the left/liberal ballplayers for the Yankees and Mets

Kinda hate how Sandra’s genius has been reduced to the “anyone but me” sound byte. That’s like Michael Jordan’s strategy being reduced to “jump higher than the other guys” #Survivor49 #Survivor

I don’t want to pretend the culture war is dead and buried, but the nominal left having the time of day for this sort of thing feels pretty quaint

Name one genius who ain’t crazy 😎

I love when the song playing over the credits of a film is a perfect grace note to the movie. And it feels like 2025 has been an uncommonly good year for that:

• Tom Waits in “Eephus”
• Teddybears & Iggy in “Superman”
• Petty & The Heartbreakers in “One Battle After Another”

Absolutely infuriating to stumble upon a delightful Paul Thomas Anderson homage, the week everyone’s talking about him. But not being able to share it bc it’s the climax of a random episode of a sitcom no one’s seen youtu.be/0Tj387FpTIQ?...

*posting on my alt to r/marvel* I know we don’t like saluting hydra around here. But I’ll do it just this once. R.I.P. to one of the MCU’s best villains. The one and only Alexander Pierce 😔😔😔

*taking a screenshot and posting to twitter* Wow, movies are not in a good place :/

Realizing with dread that I’ve aged out of being able to reply to posts like this saying, “I’m college age, and I love Mitch!”

This magazine has Benny Safdie writing about Nathan for You a year before he broke out with Good Time, seven years before collaborating with Fielder on The Curse. And this guy at @trylon.org just let me have it for free. Support your local rep cinema!!!

I’ve watched maybe 45 minutes of Bakeoff over my mom’s shoulder over the years, but I’m afraid the Australian spinoff being hosted by the guy who wrote the nastiest jokes on Go Off Kings is too strong a pitch to pass up

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

youtuber at 15 minutes of 1 hour video: so I guess it isn't possible to beat scooby doo night of 1000 frights without double jumping...............
me: ah that sucks 😕
youtuber:..........that is, unless we notice this uneven geometry in the corner of the room
me: :0000000000000000

I remember reading reviews of that movie on Letterboxd and thinking man, some people need to wear a shock collar that detects when they type the words “dudes rock”
