Read some comics yesterday!

Daniel Warren Johnson's TRANSFORMERS run was stellar. Vol 4 was the best of the bunch. Incredible stuff. Actually teared up at one point.

SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN: Maybe the greatest issue #1 of a comic I've ever read? Late to the party but fully in. Excellent

Okay fine I'll watch the SONIC THE HEDGEHOG movies

SCREAM 7 Had A Record Breaking Box Office Opening SCREAM 7 performed better than any other SCREAM movie before it at the box office on its opening weekend, asserting Ghostface as a generationally beloved slasher.

Same energy (complimentary)

3 killed, 14 injured after downtown Austin shooting; police say suspect dead The Austin Police Department says that 3 people are dead, including the suspect, and 14 were injured after a shooting just before 2 a.m.

Fuck your guns. Fuck the Second Amendment. God damn it this is horrible.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON

Thank you! The donut hat is my favorite thing. Sprints! They make great shit.

Absolutely frustrating morning leading to a mega warm run I wasn't prepared for. 6 miles all the same. 158 so far for 2026. Not too shabby...

Onward.

I've lived in Austin for almost a decade and this has to be the worst allergy season ever. This pollen is tryna take me TF out.

New GI Joe Movie In The Works, But There's A Disappointing Catch - SlashFilm Paramount is developing a new live-action G.I. Joe movie, but it’s hired Max Landis (a writer with multiple allegations of sexual misconduct) to work on it.

Paramount Skydance is anti-#MeToo. They're in with alleged sexual predators. There are so many talented writers and filmmakers out there who could make a meal of these franchises, and the studio is bouncing back to toxic sex pests like Max Landis and Brett Ratner?

The Slasher Movie Franchise HATCHET Has A Perfect New Home Umbrella Entertainment has acquired the rights to the entire HATCHET franchise, which is good news for fans of Adam Green’s delightfully gory movies.

Congrats to @umbrellaent.bsky.social! Very much looking forward to see what they do with the HATCHET movies.

Avengers: Doomsday And Spider-Man: Brand New Day IMAX Releases In Question - Will Marvel Move Them? - SlashFilm IMAX has become a necessity for big budget blockbusters to make bank, and both Avengers: Doomsday and Spider-Man: Brand New Day are fighting for screen access.

It's hard to believe but SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY and AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY may well hit theaters with a very limited IMAX release overseas and that's it.

Will Marvel try to shift the release dates? Or are they content to surrender a lot of money at the box office?

Excellent mail day! Now if I can just find time to actually read them...

SCREAM 7: One could do a whole lot worse - and I mean a WHOLE LOT worse - when it comes to the seventh entry in a long running slasher series.

It's a SCREAM movie! Not a lot of new ideas but it's comfortable in a way I enjoyed. What can I say?

...I go for one little run and this happens

5 unreasonably warm miles today. Legs were still a little wobbly from the race but it still felt very nice. Now? To the Alamo Drafthouse!

Onward.

Me watching the trailer for IN A VIOLENT NATURE 2

I've Been Watching James Bond For Over 30 Years. One Daniel Craig Movie Made Me A Lifelong Fan - SlashFilm Everyone remembers their first Bond movie, but sometimes it takes a different portrayal to turn someone into a lifelong fan of 007.

"I could write a book about this movie, going frame by frame, finding only things to love and nothing to hate."

I got to wriite about my beloved SKYFALL and how it changed my relationship to JAMES BOND forever.

The Biggest Box Office Hit Of 2026 So Far Is A Sequel You've Never Heard Of - SlashFilm

2026’s just getting started, but the biggest box office hit of the year so far is a Chinese racing action sequel most folks stateside haven't heard of.

Time for the annual "my apartment is raising my rent but I don't make any more money than I made last year" game.

this piece by @ryanscottwrites.bsky.social is your must-read for today

I'm doing a thing!!!!

I'm at the University of Houston today for a special screening of GRAND THEFT HAMLET! If you're on or around campus, come see a great movie and listen to me talk about said great movie.

How it started/how it's going

Participated in the first ever Goliath 50 trail race today. 3:56:00 and change 20 miler. I got 5th in the category. I was pretty blown away by that. If I may? F*** yeah.

President Donald Trump Claims Melania Is A Box Office Success – The Facts Say Otherwise - SlashFilm Donald Trump has boasted that Melania, the documentary about his wife, is a success, but the box office numbers and other objective metrics say otherwise.

Donald Trump recently claimed that the MELANIA documentary is a "very successful movie" and is "like number one."

The box office tells a very different story, one of a massive commercial flop that was never number one by any meaningful metric.

Star Wars Sequel Trilogy Nostalgia Is Here (But That's Not A Bad Thing) - SlashFilm With the latest look at The Mandalorian and Grogu, it's clear that the nostalgia cycle for the Star Wars sequel trilogy has arrived.

The trailer for THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU contains a clear visual callback to THE FORCE AWAKENS. In some ways, this signals the beginning of the era of STAR WARS sequel trilogy nostalgia.

This isn't unexpected nor is it an inherintly bad thing.

Hell yeah.
