#filmsky 2025 Christmas blu-ray haul

I have completed Metroid Prime 4. The writing was shit, the characters were shit, the story was predictable, and how did Samus become Jesus?

Being on Faecesbook on my phone makes me feel like shit

#filmsky #nowwatching Stairway to the Distant Past 1995

Every single person writing about Hollywood right now is resigned to the fact that audiences will simply turn their heads upward with mouths agape, ready to fill their gullets with whatever slop that pours forth from the cinematic meat processor. Pigs in a trough feasting on yesterday's leftovers

Tired: Pascal's Wager Wired: Pascal's Roulette Pascal's Roulette says that each and every god ever conceived by man has a perfectly equal chance of being real.

Now, extend this to encompass all of Hollywood

#filmsky #nowwatching The Most Terrible Time in My Life 1994

California should have its own public health institution, and the Northeast should have its own

#filmsky Does anyone know when we will be able to see Redux Redux?

Two blog posts in one day! #filmsky

The GOP is going to destroy healthcare. The East Coast needs their own system.

#filmsky New blog post is up!

My preorder of Hisayasu Sato vol 2 finally arrived, along with The Maiku Hama Trilogy and Women on the Run. They even sent me the nice version of Women on the Run!

#filmsky #nowwatching Le Samourai 1967

Holy fuck I hate Quentin Tarantino

Talking about "lore" as a thing in contemporary media is a form of brainrot

Medusa 2021

#filmsky #nowwatching Turtle Vision 1991

You will be visited by four spirits

Paramount overpaying for Warner Bros would be hilarious. Hopefully whichever company is stupid enough to buy WB withers and dies

#filmsky #nowwatching Cruel Story of Youth 1960

They put the AKIRA slide in MP4: Beyond

#filmsky #nowwatching Horror in the High Desert 4

#filmsky #nowwatching Reflection in a Dead Diamond 2025

I solved Metroid Prime 4: Beyond's biggest problem in two seconds: Settings > Speech Audio: 0% Miles who?

#filmsky #nowwatching Gemini 1999 This movie is absolutely *gorgeous*

The Godzilla films that I got for my cousin's kid for Christmas

#filmsky #nowwatching Anatomia Extinction 1995 Idk what this is, but it looks insane

#filmsky #nowwatching Tonight's double feature: - Emitai 1971 - The Strange Affair 1968

Please tell me that I can turn dialogue sound off in Metroid Prime 4

The 48th President trying to cut a new trade deal: "It's not that I can't cut a deal because they don't trust me; it's that they don't trust *you*. They think that even if they cut a deal with me, when the next election come's around, you're gonna replace me with some asshole."

I ordered the Agnes Varda Criterion set for Black Friday just because. I've only seen Vagabond. 2026 is going to involve rotating between Nagisa Oshima / WKW / Agnes Varda; rinse, repeat. Lol

1) Issue a moratorium on franchise films for 7 years 2) Subsidize hiring new directors and fund original and avant-garde films

Some Marine bonehead plagiarized a cutscene from Helldivers 2

I *really* want to see Redux Redux

Going to war with Venezuela would be a hilarious and calamitous decision that I cannot wait for Trump to make because it would ruin the country in ways that cannot be corrected easily. The American people need obvious and permanent reminders of why this should never happen again.

People who are enjoying the love affair between Trump & Mamdani should recall that Hitler and Stalin were best of frenemies

I only have to wait til Christmas. I am *SO HYPED* @goregirlsdungeon.bsky.social @torsodapop.bsky.social @suspiraserhead.bsky.social #filmsky

#filmsky My cousin's kid is 4 years old, and the consensus among my friends and my other cousin is that it is time to show him Godzilla. The problem is that, unless I drop $120 on the Criterion set, I don't get access to the 60s classics like King Konf vs Godzilla or Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla... 1/2

#filmsky #nowwatching Hard Boiled 1992

As I was having a final chat with one of the MFA crew - he was finishing his weeklong shift and would not return before my departure - we talked about the fate of the war. I offered my thoughts that Ukraine could win. He responded, "we have to, or we die." I didn't meet a single person in the...

#filmsky I love watching several films by a single director, and then watch as their central thesis evolves and expands. David Cronenberg on technology and the body; Shinya Tsukamoto on the impact of violence on individuals and society, from Bullet Ballet to Shadow of Fire.
