Forgot how the marketing for The Fabelmans was like "a heartfelt semi-autobiographical story of the transformative power of the movies" and the movie's actual plot is "here follow the crimes of my Sexual Mother"

It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore.
It happens a lot 'round here.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

All the Beauty and the Bloodshed. I work in harm reduction, and art vs. activism are often regarded as though they’re at odds. This is a beautiful story about what’s possible when the two intersect.

Something I think doesn’t really get talked about when it comes to cosmic horror is that it’s a safe way to ask questions about belief and why the mere existence of a higher power, no matter how real, is enough for people to justify being unimaginably cruel

Record store clerk (noticing my Princess Bride pin): β€œAs you wish.” I said that to my ex-girlfriend as we were breaking up.

Me: Whoa.

Clerk: Yeah, it was brutal.

Me: I hope it was cathartic for you, at least.

Clerk: It felt amazing. Have a good day, ma’am.

I've thought a lot about the scene in A Clockwork Orange where Alex finds out that the droogs he used to rampage with are now policemen

Leanna stares at the camera with severe intensity, a lit candelabra in her left hand bedecked by large rings, a hardcover copy of AMERICA'S MOST GOTHIC: HAUNTED HISTORY STRANGER THAN FICTION with it's golden gothic tracery and haunted house at the center, a book co-authored by herself and Andrea Janes, grasped in her left hand, a large pendant of Edgar Allan Poe is around her neck, the poster of Leanna's debut Gothic novel STRANGELY BEAUTIFUL is behind her, a Victorian mourning poster declaring Rest in Peace over her other shoulder. Leanna is wearing black wire-frame glasses and dressed in her signature black.

I just ran One Battle After Another on 70mm and in case it's not common knowledge I want to make sure audiences know that those reels are fucking HUGE and HEAVY (like 40-50 lbs) and we have to lift them over our heads and angle them onto a thin shaft without dropping them on ourselves/the projector
