THE LONG DAY CLOSES (Terrence Davies, 1992)

THE LONG DAY CLOSES (Terrence Davies, 1992)

I don't understand how people eat these big meals like a Chili's burger and fries or a porterhouse steak with sides and wine before a flight. The most I would ever eat is maybe half of one of those sad cold sandwiches you get in a Hudson News refridgerator

I love razor-thin shaved capicola and prosciutto as anyone who grew up in NJ would but I haven’t had it in a while and totally forgot how much it gets stuck in every tiny crevice in your teeth

Lu Dort arguing with refs:

Didn’t listen to the schizophrenic 900 year old pedophile’s speech but it did remind me of a banger post about today

Having a routine that starts early is unfortunately really good and makes me feel much better. It sucks that thats so lame and cringe

Idk if it’s the best but Elizabeth Taylor says Cat on a Hot Tin Roof pretty early on in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and her and Paul Newman say it in succession to each other during an argument

Kevin Huerter/Jaden Ivy trade is gonna go down as one of the most pointless trades ever

Baseball fans 2 games into a 300 game regular season

What cuisine is the biggest downgrade from eating in the restaurant vs getting it delivered or doing takeout? I think Japanese is prob tops for me.

MAURICE (James Ivory, 1987)

The more half-assed Lord of the Rings IP money grabs they try to churn out the better and better Peter Jackson's trilogy is gonna look. It's already the single most impressive blockbuster franchise of this century (the last great one even) and it's only gonna be more true

MIROIRS NO. 3 starts screening at Film Center this Friday. Here’s my thoughts on it at Chicago Reader: chicagoreader.com/film-tv/movi...

Rosenbaum’s been asked a lot about film criticism lately and his answers always strike me that he’s very much “over it”

Senile 900-year old former film critic

THE FISHER KING (Terry Gilliam, 1991)

Ludwig is collecting Oscars like John Williams in the 70s

They’re calling Priyanka Chopra “Daal Gadot” lmao I’m so glad Javier Bardem spoke about Palestine where that Modi Hindutva dick-sucker couldn’t escape

Paul Thomas Anderson finally has the same amount of Oscars as Jared Leto

I think the 3 coolest sounding film genre/sub-genre names are “blaxploitation”, “wu xia”, and “giallo”.

I liked how Mamdani during his campaign often just ignored bad faith questions about on “anti-semitism” bc he knew there was no satisfactory answer to a bad faith party. I guess being in office changes the calculation but idk why. He could just answer the way Trump does. With disdain & dismissal

Trump is out here mumbling that he’s fighting the war for Jewish and gay people “who we love and they hate”. Yeah man, Jewish and gay people are two groups your voter base definitely famously loves lol

Yuki Kawamura hitting 3s in LeBron’s face. It was a great all-time career man.

Wow looks like the US govt is really gonna do 9/11 part 2 in LA in a last ditch attempt at riling up the base for nuclear war.

A historic all-timer night for one of the best power forwards in basketball that we won't soon forget. That's right, Matas Buzelis dropped a career high 41 points on the Warriors. Congrats Matas.

Bam Adebayo is not a name I would've dropped if someone asked me who was gonna score 45 points this season let alone 77

Kitchencels posts will either be like “my mom died and I just want to feel normal again. Cheesecake from the recipe my mom taught me 😢” or “this vtuber I fell in love with rejected me when I broke into her house and also I got arrested. Can of sardines.”

I have a strong feeling that the “Big Arch” is gonna taste the same as all of McD’s other burgers

I’m not even trolling when I say this might’ve been the most perfect video game console ever made lol

Ian Eagle just used the term “frame mogged” on an NBA broadcast wtf man 😭

If you loved Petzold's MIROIRS No. 3, I recommend checking out Mahesh Bhatt's SAARANSH (1984)

This was Trumps biggest foreign policy issue in Term 1

Guys! HOLY SHIT I figured it out! FINALLY the reason Studio Ghibli food looks so good is because they have great animators working for their studio 🤯

Few things more beautiful than a container of Sichuan dumplings

The Bride(!) reviews by dudes doing that thing where they are all trying desperately to ensure the readers that the movie sucking was *not* because Maggie Gyllenhaal is bad at directing. Sure man 👍

In what Hollywood considers the “dumping ground” months for film releases, horror movies have tended to thrive. So, for Fangoria I listed some of the best Jan/Feb horror releases of the 21st century so far: www.fangoria.com/best-early-h...

Every single expat/influencer who comes back from Dubai should be put to work as indentured servants in a mine or sewage plant

I love breakfast spreads in movies where it's like a normal plate of eggs and bacon but then for some reason there's a side plate of no less than 8 pieces of toast.

Olivier Rioux on Florida is fun but also kinda sad man. They gave him a full ride scholarship bc he’s 8ft tall and they just trot him out in garbage time like a circus attraction and the fans have to pretend like he’s not terrible at bball.

Bombing Dubai must be a no-lose situation bc even if you miss striking a U.S. soldier or a pedophile Emirati, you’re guaranteed to at least hit some “lifestyle” douche from instagram

Newark Airport is about to be a circus

I speak for all sensible citizens of the world when I say I stand with IRAN against the child-raping, blood-drinking pedophile ZOG governments of Israel, the United States, India, the UK, France, Germany, Canada, Argentina, and the UAE
