in retrospect, it makes too much sense that the person who got famous for being afraid of rock attacks would become so obsessed with Israel

"Presented, at long last, with the opportunity to replace the pieces of the culture they have been hating for years, all these guys can do is create lifeless facsimiles of what they despise."

Rex Reed has passed away, and with him, the proud tradition of giants like him and Pauline Kael making shit up constantly about movies they didn't like because they were too afraid or unable to make one themselves

Happy anniversary to all who celebrate. (P.S. this scene blew me away when I was a young teen, because it captures what it was like to have ADHD)

“But the woman who played the title role — the old Scottish lady — she was hilarious!” people.com/sally-field-...

If you look closely — if you see the connections — the truth begins to emerge

Hell yeah, you know what we're getting

RIP

If you are going to write about how “Harry Styles is going to marry Catwoman” please be specific — Julie Newmar and Lee Meriwether are both still alive.

Roger Ebert said "The movies are like a machine that generates empathy. It lets you understand a little bit more about different hopes, aspirations, dreams and fears. It helps us to identify with the people who are sharing this journey with us.” What's described below is the direct opposite of that

I love to see my friends and go "hey did you see this really funny movie starring me" and they go "no, all my movies star me" and then we sit in silence because there are no longer any shared experiences our sense of community between people at all

Share one of your favorite movie posters. Or don't. I'm not going to boss anyone around.

Watching REMO WILLIAMS: THE ADVENTURE BEGINS. Question: Was Fred Ward the Jon Bernthal of the 80s?

What it feels like to be in your 40s and a younger relative or co-worker shows you the latest TikTok trend youtu.be/XRh2L7tJqcI?...

I just found out that there's a reality show called LOVE THY NADER. I was disappointed to learn that it's not about Ralph Nader telling you how cool seatbelts are and how none of the famous people he hung out with in 2000 will return his phone calls.

It stinks!

I'll get them to finally release the time travelling "nanopatticles"

My buddy @bywilliamjmeyer.com needs some help, so if you can, send him some support through this link ko-fi.com/bywilliamjme...

I’m reading the first appearance of Clayface III, Preston Payne. Two observations: 1. Marshall Rogers rules. 2. Is Preston Payne the first (and only?) supervillain to drive a wood-paneled station wagon?

I misread the headline as one movie and got very excited for a moment…

A sad update from the peace talks in Pakistan: after 21 hours of discussions with JD Vance, the Iranian delegation have killed themselves

people "have money", in that they have income. but the number of people seriously burdened by their rent is the highest it's ever been. the cost of living is so much worse than it was a decade or two ago. I know multiple people making the most money they've ever made who are barely hanging on.

It’s a sad commentary on our times, but I do appreciate knowing that these videos about a French black cat and his siblings are made without AI. There may come a time where this is the only media that’s being produced without the “assistance” of AI. But that’s okay. Petit is a real one.

holy shit, i just saw someone get mugged at gunpoint. really really scary shit. i'm just glad i was able to do the right thing! i walked up to the guy being mugged and i said "don't let the gun he's holding to your head distract you from the fact that he's also stealing your money"

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

I finally own a copy of BIG APPLE COMIX. This was edited by Flo Steinberg after she left Marvel. This book gave mainstream comics talent the chance to make some filthy, FILTHY underground comix. If you’ve ever wanted Archie Goodwin to explain Times Square peep shows to you…this is the book for you

This was THE DRAMA for my generation. Still an underrated classic.

Inspired by @michelfiffe.bsky.social’s recent YouTube videos, I’m reading the Keith Giffen/Wally Wood run on ALL-STAR COMICS. I started issue #61 and…well, I was not expecting THIS reference

I'm guessing this Onion article was written by a Marvel Snap player

you, a naive fool: i do believe there are some things the nytimes won’t both sides the nytimes:

If Bob Dylan’s using AI then we all owe Pete Seeger an apology

I’m just going to come out and say it: SNL UK isn’t as good as it used to be.

Watched the season premiere of FOR ALL MANKIND. As I heard Beyoncé’s “Who Run the World” I marveled that the show finally reached modern times. Then I remembered that song was released 15 years ago. Suddenly I felt like…

WALDORF: Looks like Bari Weiss is winning her war on "wokeness." STATLER: How's that? WALDORF: According to CBS's ratings, she's putting a lot people to sleep!

Zygons never looked better

CRITERION FANS -- BE CAREFUL! I accidently participated in the Criterion Reverse-Flash Sale. Now I've been framed and am on trial for murdering a Showa Godzilla box set!

RIP Sam Kieth. THE MAXX, both the comic and the MTV show, made a major impact on me. I discovered THE MAXX at 11, and it was the book that showed me the potential and power of comic book storytelling. THE MAXX is about shifting realities and Sam Kieth shifted mine. We were so lucky to have him.

Saw this and now I’m googling “Can you be reincarnated as a cat if you haven’t died yet?”

There's currently an $18 mountain of Love & Rockets and associated comics on Humble Bundle, and I'm going to be overseeing a low-key Discord book club to read it all over the course of a year or so. www.humblebundle.com/books/love-a...
