Me after eating ribs

Mockbuster ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 "Maybe these movies are trash, but my respect for the people who directly made them grew just a little. After all, "A bad movie is better than no movie.""

Am a half hour into this while eating dinner. This is everything I wanted it to be.

Evil Dead Burn ⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Once the movie gets going, there is no stopping it. The movie spirals into the most mean and angry carnage of the entire series. Evil Dead Burn builds its chaos like a pile of Legos, constantly stacking them until the tower collapses."

Time for my entire reason of being

The Invite ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "The movie has a very Blake Edwards vibe. It hits like those types of comedies from the 1960's that take place in a single room and garner laughter from quirky and awkward interaction. And it's a very thundering example of one, because it keeps stampeding with its verbal momentum."

Moana ⭐️1/2 "The original Moana is a very special and beautiful movie. In translating it to live-action, one would hope the primary ambition would be to keep its majesty. Instead, they made a live-action version of a cartoon that is made with real people but aspires to still be a cartoon."

👀 youtu.be/Xmy-Z3dHMd8?...

Girl, same

Omg, I NEED this

NO WAY! I thought they were just going to kill off the next chronological captain of the Enterprise for shock value and promote Chapel to the role instead.

Going to watch The Odyssey the way Nolan intended: On my phone, muted, while playing video games.

Cinema Playground Journal sets off fireworks for a holiday worth celebrating: the release of a legitimately great Illumination movie. This week we look at the outstanding Minions & Monsters, and the less outstanding Young Washington and Lockbox. mst3krifftrax.blogspot.com/2026/07/cine...

Photos taken moments before disaster.

I'm just saying, Lord of the Rings would be better if Aragorn were played by Bruce Campbell.

You guys, by the end of the week there will be SIX Evil Dead movies. We just need six-hundred-and-sixty more and we'll have the perfect amount.

Same energy

Today is the only day it's okay to watch a movie featuring Randy Quaid.

Young Washington ⭐️⭐️ "Jim Henson's Founding Father Babies!"

Minions & Monsters ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 "What's funny to me is that the Minions are more limited characters than Gru and his family, yet the Despicable Me movies lose their imagination as they go and the solo Minions movies somehow grow more inspired and stimulating."

Lockbox ⭐️1/2 "There is an inefficiency to this movie that was constantly nagging at me. It was made with promising intrigue, but its delivery of it is clumsy and it only gets more awkward as it goes. The most power in the production is in Katherine Isabelle's iconic wig."

I remember back in the day, people would come up to me and ask if I'vs seen The Force Awakens or Top Gun: Maverick in the weeks following their release and said yes. They then said "I've seen it 7 times. How many times did you see it?" And I'd go "Uhhhhh..." Now seated for Obsession round 7.

I may have put down $150 on that new Jackie Chan box set simply because I wanted to see The Lost World's Rachel Blakely's gorgeous eyes in 4K.

MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 IS BACK, AS THE RIFFTRAX EXPERIMENTS PREMIERE SEPTEMBER 9TH IN THEATERS! The first episode is Sting of Death, which I live watched down below. Mark your calenders, #MST3K fans! The wait is almost over!

They're the same picture.

Squee!

YouTube has started giving me nothing but ads for Blue Chew and Angel Studios' streaming service. I don't know why it suddenly thinks I'm this type of audience, but while I probably should be offended that it does, it makes me lol that it's pairing "flaccid" with "right wing evangelical."

We are officially halfway through the year. Thought it would be fun to do some movie highlights so far! So I broke down the five major genres (drama, comedy, action/adventure, sci-fi/fantasy, horror/thriller) and picked my favorites of 2026. Let's see what stuck with me!

👀

Nice

They're trying to tempt me when the 4K release is two weeks away and it's probably working

Thinking of them. ❤️

Okay, MSTies. You know what to do. #MST3K

HI, I'M JOHNNY KNOXVILLE AND WELCOME TO CINEMA PLAYGROUND JOURNAL! This is the one where we look at Jackass: Best and Last, Supergirl, Couture, and Lucky Strike! ::blog post explodes:: mst3krifftrax.blogspot.com/2026/06/cine...

Mel Brooks is 100. The world is refusing to allow him to leave this mortal plane until his has shared his wisdom with six full generations. Or until he makes a Men in Tights sequel. Whichever comes first. This is how you know that something is still correct in nature.

Jackass: Best and Last ⭐️⭐️1/2 "Some of the pranks are more theatrical than usual and less awe-inspiring. Many of the biggest laughs come from clips of previous installments ("Silence of the Lambs" is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen)."

Supergirl ⭐️⭐️1/2 "Watching Supergirl is a tale of two experiences. One is a flavorful adventure following a troubled character stumbling through chaotic scenarios. The other is one a dry stupor of tonal issues that gets less interesting as it goes. Any viewer who leaned into either is equally valid."

Couture ⭐️⭐️ "I think the purpose of the movie is to contrast a woman contemplating her mortality against a group of women who are starting the prime of their lives but only one of these stories has anything thoughtful in it."

Stealing thread premise for personal gain! MST3K Movie Alphabet (antics)! A is for Ator, the Fighting Eagle!

Lucky Strike ⭐️1/2 "The ending twist is that the whole movie is a tender love story between a lost soldier and his dependable radio, which is something the movie never sets up at all. It's jarring when this becomes the case because his use of his radio is largely brushed over in the narrative."

After playing First Light, I've been rewatching Bond movies. I've never cared for Roger Moore Bond and I think I finally figured out why. Connery played Bond like he was a thug who was trained to act like a pompous ass. Moore's Bond feels like he was just raised as a pompous ass.

"Mmmm...Open-Faced Club Sandwich" OR "MY SKULL!" Take one and have a happy brithday!

This is for their own safety because Nolan will get into a fistfight with anyone who uses cameras with lower resolution than 8K.

The energy I'm bringing to America's 250th birthday.

Sam Raimi didn't strap a Super 8 camera to a 2x4 so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."
