Classic IFC was like looking into another world. Even reminds me how on Fridays AMC would do….Fear Fridays, I think? And Sci-Fi would do Terror Tuesday and the interstitials looked like a NIN video

Happy F-Zero GX launch day

They could be scanning a film out to 4K like what Criterion did for The Celebration and that one Sean Baker movie

Need to go back to metal. I’m starting to rebuild a non-Spotify collection and have been spinning the Velvet Underground again for the first time in year. Boy, let me tell ya, they’re kinda good

So I have every code unused as far as I can tell. But I forgot to use them….

@labuzamovies.com I was gathering some classic Hollywood books last year and you recommend several Bordwell. Finishing up Film Style and it’s great. It gave me an idea and I wanted to read more about something related specifically to genre films. Does Bordwell, or anyone, have something like this?

I’ve never used a single one so I could probably buy the 40 movie set for free by this point (but I’m not gonna)

I’m so sorry

Robbie Williams Bad Boy Monkey Musical is kind of an all-timer imho

A KitchenAid is so worth it

I hope the AI upres isn’t true. I was on a private site that was comparing some images and they looked like they may have used those tools. When I have a free moment I can post some comparisons.

@jackeason.bsky.social is it true the video portions of the second sight blair witch release were upscaled using AI?

Supposedly the domain owner forgot to renew lmao

@bellestardust.bsky.social did you see about RED?

The resurgence of hoxhaism will be interesting

Too dense. What does it mean?

Abel Ferrara: “There’s fuckin’ Buscemi!”

I’ve never pieced it together but this is 100% correct and just as disgusting

*in the style of the Big-O theme song*

Big-Joe!

1. I read a comment on some video the other day that said hippies are mean people cosplaying as nice

2. I also read another comment that said white girls with dreads give off “My daddy works at Lockheed Martin” vibes

This is excellent I'll definitely take a look! Thank you!

I’ll definitely look into both of those! I read the final chapter from MM recently just due to the title and I really liked Bordwell’s concept of Historical Poetics. I quickly looked over his blog and he has some posts continuing that line of thinking but haven’t had a chance to really read those.

My parents bought it for me on when it first came out and idk if they even knew I liked the book. I miss surprise treats like this.

No need to worry about me being a casual reader. I like reading theory, and actually read Deleuze's Cinema books with a group over the past couple of years, but I realized I never actually delved into his books. I'm looking towards graduate school and want a couple of his books under my belt.

@labuzamovies.bsky.social I’m currently reading The Genius of the System and really liking it. What other books from this era of Hollywood would you recommend? Movie making, distribution, etc. Also, do you have any thoughts on Bordwell’s Making Meaning and Narration in Fiction Film?

Wow, nowhere near that in TX. Hoping that’s in our future.

Gonna start an Etsy shop for bootleg scanned Grindhouse prints on blu-Ray, but my only release will be Steamboat Willie.

I hope you have a fast recovery ❤️‍🩹
