It’s utterly self-centered for a CRITIC, whose entire role is to judge others’ work, to shield their *own* from scrutiny. That’s peak megalomania!
Like, you make a career nitpicking others, but your own ego’s off-limits? 🤣

Makes the most sense, really. M:I is more espionage thriller whereas M:I-2 is more action thriller.

I’m actually rewatching part 2 at this very moment. It’s been DECADES.

🎬 Currently watching What About Bob? — Bill Murray’s neurotic charm meets Richard Dreyfuss’s unraveling sanity. A comedy classic!

I desperately miss movie scores from the ‘90s and early 2000s—when soundtracks actually had identity—bold, imaginative, and instantly transported us to another world before a single line was spoken, setting the tone for unforgettable cinematic experiences!

🎬🎦🍿

Loved it. Totally get why it’s a comfort movie for you. It’s got such a smooth, laid-back vibe but still keeps you locked in.

Bummer that Demonic was a letdown! Honestly, hadn’t even heard of it until your post. 😅

On a brighter note, I’m finally watching The Score (2001) — De Niro, Norton & Brando together has me hyped! 🎬😃

Always down for a good double feature — if you’ve got any gems you’d recommend after, I’m all ears!

Right? That’s one of the things I love most about her posts too. I’m *always* rambling about movie scores — especially from the bygone eras — so it’s really cool seeing someone else who’s just as passionate and into it!

So here's the version from STRANGE DAYS. You'll hear it is the same melody, but there are some additional strings with a recurring motif from STRANGE DAYS. This is in no way a criticism, I really do love it when composers do this. I find it comforting, for some reason. Soothing. Like a warm blanket.

That’s a beautifully curated KL collection! :)

I think this is the most color I’ve seen from one of your photos haha.

For sure! *Literally* just said the exact same thing to a friend on here! Haha

Any time a movie treats the soundtrack like a headliner, it INSTANTLY elevates the whole thing, IMO.

YesSs! I’m stoked! The visuals look SO clean — I love how the tone of this one is all red, compared to TRON: LEGACY’s cool blue vibe.

Also — is it just me, or do movies that really lean into promoting their soundtrack always end up hitting harder and making the whole thing feel infinitely better?!

TRON ARES looks great! I'm only disappointed that Garrett Hedlund and Bruce Boxleitner aren't back for this, but I'm keeping an open mind. Really looking forward to it! 💥

YouTube video by Disney Tron: Ares | Official Trailer

I know that this is really a movie trailer but I’m seeing it as a preview of the NIN score and, based on what is here, I couldn’t be more stoked.

Ah, well… hit send, refreshed, BAM — there it is! 😆

Oh man, honestly — anytime you posted a film score on Twitter, it pretty much always made me wanna (re)watch whatever it was. Your enthusiasm for that stuff just rubbed off on me — especially since our tastes line up so much.

(One of the things I actually missed most about ya! Haha)

@turkishmeatchugger.bsky.social You peep this yet? Feel like I vaguely remember you posting about it back on Twitter / 𝕏?

Honestly kinda surprised by how great this looks — WAY more hyped than I expected to be!

I’m honestly blown away by how impressive this trailer looks! Can’t even remember the last time a trailer gave me goosebumps — but this one absolutely did. The visuals, soundtrack, Jeff Bridges’ voice kicking off… everything hit.

Consider me thoroughly locked in for whatever comes next! #TronAres

I've been meaning to check this out for such a long time! Your post was the perfect reminder, and you really won me over by including that remarkable score! Can't wait to dive in! Thanks!

Soderbergh seems to be one of the rare directors who only gets better with age.

I need to give this a proper rewatch someday. Kept checking my phone every 15-20 minutes—usually a sign of boredom—but I've done the same with plenty of movies I love now.

One of Friedkin's movies I have *eternally* wanted to see but have been incapable of tracking down.

Guess that’s a no…

Thrilled to see cameras roll at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden on Supergirl, with Craig Gillespie at the helm and the phenomenal Milly Alcock as our Kara Zor-El.

Also, I highly recommend picking up his book, "Tinnitus, from Tyrant to Friend: How to Let Go of the Ringing in Your Ears."

He's got a TON of wonderful insights in there. And, honestly, even just reading the book itself helped me forget about it for a little while. a.co/d/g6pDws4

*Exactly* how Julian made me feel after discovering his videos! The onset of tinnitus can be frightening and, at times, debilitating. So any time I can personally help someone find "relief*, makes me feel like I'm doing MY part.

Glad I could help!

Now THAT looks like the type of badass woman that would obliterate a steak, watch action movies, have unadulterated gangbangs, and also kick your fucking ass!

Those other pics just weren't adding up. But these are 😙👌

You're completely delusional.

I'm not sure what you're asking? If Criterion can't acquire rights to a movie, it doesn't get a release.

Criterion seems to have a deal with NEON, they've released a few of their movies right away.
