Most exciting about the Emmy nominations is learning which of the shows you've been watching for the past year are dramas or comedies

I’m just saying I’ve been thinking about William Henry Harrison all week

I’m okay with plot in movies but only if it advances the sex scenes

Now that I’m an adult and my access to and awareness of the vastness of film history is exponentially increased I struggle to justify the rewatch at times when I could be watching something new, so I sometimes yearn for my high school days when I owned like 20 dvds and had them constantly on repeat

Name a film with a title that is a full sentence.

"He's taken off his shoes and one of his socks and...actually, I think he's crying."

Vampires! Are! Sexy!

You ever think you might be so unhappy because you live by a set of rules that only exist in your head and when you follow them you suffer and when other people don’t follow them you feel resentful when if you just did what they did you’d be fine and it wouldn’t matter

Tried to join my friends at a bar in Manhattan to watch the Knicks game and the cops wouldn’t let me through so I spent literally an hour and a half just pointlessly round tripping from queens to midtown and back. I don’t even like sports!! I put on an orange mesh top for this! Nuts!

Now no discourse, except it be of love

rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead to their conservative families but running a lovely antique shop in vermont

I wrote some confessions about being a chronic people-pleaser. It was a lot of fun to write this honestly! There were moments I thought "PLEASE DON'T TELL THEM ABOUT THAT" johnpaulbrammer.substack.com/p/confession...

“so what’s your take?” “the city of New York must pay me $1 million cash in the next hour and I will kill one person for every minute they are late” “100% disagree”

"You see, Case, the trouble with me is that I never could decide whether I wanted to be Joan of Arc, Florence Nightingale, or John L. Lewis." —Holiday (Cukor, 1938) Happy Katharine Hepburn's birthday to all who celebrate.

You (with a cold take, a stale take, a reheated leftover take): the real villains of The Devil Wears Prada are Andy’s friends and boyfriend Me (with a hot take, a correct take, fresh out the oven): Christian Thompson did nothing wrong. The Mentalist innocent

emo music

Musical theater has to be one of the worst forms of music to love bc there’s so few people in the world who you can nerd out with about how the bootleg of Raul Esparza singing Franklin Shepard Inc is one of the best performances ever captured

British Man Desperately Trying To Get Out Of Panel Show Duty https://theonion.com/british-man-desperately-trying-to-get-out-of-panel-show-duty/

Someone needs to write a book about the early 2000s movie musical boom and why we knew how to make movie musicals then and why we’ve totally forgotten how to now. Maybe that someone is me ✨✨✨

Every picture of ICE agents in airports is just this again

"Old-fashioned about screens" isn't really a phrase that makes sense to me - the idea that young children should be shielded from looking at screens until they reach a certain age feels like a modern anxiety (one that I have witnessed with young parents in my life and it is exhausting)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Jesus when he comes back to Earth:

Saw Moulin Rouge! at MOMI tonight (still pure and absolute cinema) but I was on letterboxd checking in on what the supporting cast has gotten up to and look I was never a big LOTR person so I was just unaware, my face when I realized this was the same guy

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Exactly this. But also fuck AI for making me, a hitherto proudly irreligious bastard, resort to concepts like "your immortal soul" when trying to express what's at stake here.

For those wondering what Mamdani's quote, "For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty," was in reference to...

What was the last movie or TV show you watched in 2025?

Lolll love it when a q4 tv obsession completely skews your letterboxd year in review results

I decided that one of my New Year’s resolutions would be to read at least 20 of the books on my shelves that I’ve never read. To shame/encourage me to follow through I have siloed off said books from the rest and there are at least 65 😅

When will we get a restoration of White Christmas where everything is the same except Bing Crosby’s eyes Don’t Look Like That

I hope this lady shows up at his next press conference

For @ebertvoices.bsky.social's 8 Essential Rob Reiner films, I wrote about the capraesque components of A FEW GOOD MEN.

Anyways, The Princess Bride is one of the greatest movies of all time, thank you Rob Reiner

What do you even say but thank you?

One of the many things that Rob Reiner did that I loved was his performance as Jess’s dad on New Girl. His contribution to the culture is so vast you couldn’t even begin to cover it and this one is a small drop in that bucket but even so his presence onscreen was such a joy.

Why is every day a horror?

In a weird mood home alone on a Friday night in December? Time to pull out the big guns of wintertime comfort watches for a healing double feature.

Did you know you can be an absurd person and fly across the ocean to see a live show version of a tv show you started watching two months ago if you don’t mind losing thousands of dollars about it 🥲

The drinking water fandom is dying. Like and share if you're still sipping that clear stuff in 2025

Close enough welcome back Our Flag Means Death

And on top of everything, I finally saw Frankenstein today! What a delicious picture!!
