Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.

"Whatever you have done to the Least of These - the hungry, the foreigner, the sick, the imprisoned - you have done unto ME." (Matthew 25)

Interesting. Does anyone know how this turned out?

A ★★★★ review of The Bourne Identity (2002) Comfort viewing of the highest order. I could probably recite half of this movie at this point, and I'm not ashamed to say it. This is also my first review here of a movie I've seen before. It's been ...

A ★★★½ review of Pulse (2001) I have to start off by saying I don't think I fully 'got' this. It's my first Kurosawa movie and I will definitely be jumping backwards to Cure next (just didn't do my research before watching this). ...

A ★★★★ review of Anora (2024) Finished watching this about an hour before it won Best Picture, and I'm very glad I did. I think it's possible that a lot of people who see it afterwards may be disappointed in some way or another, a...

A ★★★★½ review of Vertigo (1958) This was my first time seeing Vertigo, but it won't be my last. I have loved every Hitchcock film I have seen, but never went out of my way to find the rest. That may change now. While I won't say it'...

A ★★★ review of Cats (2019) This was awful, and I loved it. How can you rate a movie like this? Watch it, once.

I can't give it any more stars, but I loved this absolute mess

A ★★★½ review of Challengers (2024) I didn't expect to care more about the tennis than the...drama, but here we are. I think it is a sign of the movie's strength that I was caught up in feeling how important this game was (I am not huge...

A ★★★★½ review of The Wages of Fear (1953) I had to watch this immediately after seeing Sorcerer. I'm not sure it benefitted from the proximity, but still incredible. I also had to take it in chunks over a couple of days, which I won't hold ag...

A ★★★★★ review of Sorcerer (1977) It's five minutes before nine, in Paris. I loved this movie. Not breaking any new ground by saying this, but I was amazed at how they were able to build so much tension during such slow scenes. On pap...

A ★★★ review of Color Out of Space (2019) Fun, dumb, and very cool looking. Appropriately gross, and most of the effects looked impressive despite what I assume to be (no research done) a lower end budget. Dialogue and acting choices from som...

Been slacking on posting these! Letterboxd dump incoming 😅

I'm fuming ahead of time over these goofs!

That sounds awesome! Will look into 🤜

A ★★★½ review of Evil Does Not Exist (2023) I still have a lot to unpack on this one. I feel like I might need to do a YouTube deep dive to "get" everything. I liked it a lot, though, for what it was on its face. If I'm not mistaken, none of th...

Gonna keep going with these. The movie is better than the review in this case

Guess I wasn't alone in this totally random urge to read.

Fuck the Super Bowl. Let me know if Kendrick says "Fuck DT and EM!"

Getting pretty comfortable, aren't they?

A ★★★★½ review of Perfect Days (2023) I adored this movie. I also needed this movie. To put a timestamp on this viewing, everything is on fire and it seems like no one is doing anything about it. I am very sure this is not the case, but t...

Watch this movie. Just, watch it.

Just look at the man's *fucking* FACE

A ★★★ review of I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020) I read the book first, and I'm still lost. This might be too surreal for me, I'll have to check out some more Kaufman to decide. In the plus column, everything looks great. The acting is fantastic thr...

A surrealist hellscape, still escapism

A ★★★ review of Trap (2024) Full discretion, I watched this about a week ago but hadn't decided to do any reviews here. Not much to say without spoiling anything, but super dumb, pretty fun. I came down on the generous side of t...

Fuck it, I need a low-stakes project. Might as well drop all of these here. Follow me over there too!

My ★★★ review of Trap on Letterboxd boxd.it/8IJHwp

IMPEACH. Until it sticks

A ★★★★ review of The Wailing (2016) Genuinely disturbing, at times baffling, and left me wanting to continue the investigation. Fantastic acting all around, great oppressive vibe all throughout. Somewhat confusing at points which I can ...

Trying to avoid wallowing while staying informed. Doing some Letterboxd as a distraction. Help me build my watchlist! Give me your go-to, must-see movie. No parameters, casting a wide net here.

Side note, The Wailing was *very* good.

My ★★★★ review of The Wailing on Letterboxd boxd.it/8IJqVd

Thousands in Germany have taken the streets protest the rise of the Elon Musk and Kremlin supported neo-Nazi party AfD, ahead of the general election.

For no specific reason I've picked up The Handmaid's Tale for my bedtime read. Ended last night right around here:

Whatever is going on is as usual. Even this is as usual, now. We lived, as usual, by ignoring. Ignoring isn't the same as ignorance, you have to work at it.

Just saved all of the old pics I want off of FB, nearly ready to shut it down. Any leads on a non-dystopian reels replacement? Need my dog and food videos fix. Starter pack recommendations for here also appreciated #newskies
