Graham Platner’s history of sexual assault proves he does not belong in the US Senate. He belongs on the Supreme Court. by Susan Collins

Trump calls the FIFA head: “All i need you to do is find me 3.5 goals.”

Everything Trump touches dies. #WorldCup

Let me be clear. There are many legitimate critics who live up to that title who will be posting reactions and (get this) writing reviews for major outlets. Not talking about them.

So I see the first reactions to #TheOdyssey are here from the usual suspects that may as well be called influencers cause I wouldn't call them critics.

My box office report for Rotten Tomatoes looks at the disappointing #'s for #MinionsAndMonsters (which will still be a solid hit), the even more brutal #'s for #Supergirl. #DisclosureDay hits $100 million and where #ToyStory5 may be headed. editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/week...

Lucas said of his original Star Wars script that Obi-Wan ended up just standing around with nothing to do during the Death Star battle. So he just killed him. That is basically Carmen in the final season of #TheBear. (Obi-Wan in both versions of that script.)

Getting in my Happy Birthday to Mel before the day ends. First joke I ever “got” was the werewolf gag in Young Frankenstein. Thank you for all the entertainment and multiple, multiple viewings over the years.

If you are just doing purely 1:1 the action cinema of Stallone vs. Schwarzenegger, 4 is actually a decent over/under for Sly even with guilty pleasures. Arnold has him beat there handily. Start throwing in dramas it gets a little more interesting. Arnold wins in comedy though.

Ten new reviews for you this week on #MovieMadness with Steve Prokopy and I discussing #Supergirl, #JackassBestAndLast, #RoseOfNevada, #InTheHandOfDante, #LittleBrother, #TheGetOut, #LuckyStrike, #Couture & #Chapter51 erikthemovieman.substack.com/p/episode-66...
