This is brutal. He built a fucking spring training party house in Port St. Lucie!!? Man... whatever David Stearns' master plan is, it had better fucking work in 2026. World Series or bust. Anything less and we drop his ass into the nearest volcano. 🤨 #LGM #MetsSky

Thank you, Brandon 🧡💙

I know this trade is a means to an end and there will almost certainly be more moves coming that will make it make more sense -- but dammit, I loved Brandon Nimmo and I will miss him and his infectious hustle. He was a true Met. 😢 #LGM #MetsSky

Um, holy shit. 😳 #LGM #MetsSky

These #F1 races should include one regular guy driving a regular car to serve as a basis of comparison. #LasVegasGP

#Anemone would have been perfect if it had been a short film centered entirely around Daniel Day-Lewis' soliloquy about (spoiler?) taking a shit on an abusive priest. The rest of the film is a bit of a chore of heavy themes and flourishes. But still a notable directorial debut for DDL's boy.

#CaughtStealing puts Austin Butler through the cinematic wringer, AFTER HOURS-style, in a painstakingly-recreated late '90s Lower East Side (with a visit to Flushing Meadows that really tickled my fancy). Stylish, ultra-violent, baseball-adjacent, and arguably Darren Aronofsky's most fun movie.

#TheNakedGun may not be as outrageously funny and iconic as the original (an impossible task), but it absolutely captures the same spirit, and is hilarious and quotable in its own right. I'm still a little salty that Liam & Pam hoodwinked us in real life, but their chemistry cannot be denied.

#BalladOfASmallPlayer tells a mystical story of addiction and despair for a gambler whose luck has run out, as portrayed by a roguish Colin Farrell. Stylish but messy, it's a minor effort for Edward Berger, but a hell of a travelogue for the city of Macau in all its decadence (I wanna go).

Just saw Robin Byrd coming out of a movie at the IFC Center. Starstruck. #nyc #iykyk

This looks generic at best and AI-generated at worst, which is disconcerting. Maybe they should have gotten Tom Holland and Hunter Schafer. That said, I will reserve judgment until we see more because I simply refuse to believe that Nintendo would half-ass this project. 🙏

Tix acquired for the new #Avatar in glorious IMAX 3D, no thanks to AMC, who sent out their reminder notifications over a half-hour after tix went on sale, by which time the best seats were already gone. (Fortunately, I was among those who thought to check the app earlier and snagged mine.)

#28YearsLater is a masterclass of post-pandemic world-building that works in both logical and wildly unexpected ways -- combined with visceral imagery, a healthy dose of existentialism, and of course, plenty of rage-fueled mayhem. Another triumphant reinvention of the genre for Boyle and Garland.

#GoodBoy is aptly named because its canine star, Indy, is very good indeed. The movie itself makes clever use of editing and perspective to concoct a tense, atmospheric, and surprisingly emotional slice of supernatural horror. A worthwhile experiment, especially at a brisk 73 minutes.

#TheConjuringLastRites arguably has the dopiest story and fewest scares of the entire franchise, but is still watchable thanks to Patrick Wilson & Vera Farmiga, whose on-screen love story is the beating heart of it all. If this truly the end for Ed & Lorraine Warren, they've earned it.

#Together is okay. The relationship drama/satire works somewhat better than the body horror, but there are some squeamish moments. Dave Franco and Alison Brie, incredibly, have not yet jumped the shark as a lovable celebrity couple, and it helps that they are clearly game for anything.

#M3GAN 2.0 doubles down on everything that made the first one so fun and iconic and the result is... kinda fun... and not nearly as iconic (albeit even more timely as an AI cautionary tale). If they make a third one, they need to go deep into gimmick mode. M3GAN vs. CHUCKY IN SPACE, perhaps?

#PredatorBadlands is another winner for Dan Trachtenberg, who clearly has his finger on the pulse of this franchise like few ever have. A shockingly good mix of world-building, action, humor, and heart. Elle Fanning pulls double-duty and proves that she can do pretty much anything. More please.

#DieMyLove is a hallucinatory portrait of postpartum trauma and relationship dysfunction that is as blistering as it is, at times, confounding. Jennifer Lawrence unleashes a ferocious performance that is mesmerizing to watch. A bleak and exhausting film, but one that is worth puzzling over.

#Splitsville delivers lots of screwball laughs and has some things to say about love and marriage and related anxieties. None of it is particularly revelatory, but then again, Dakota Johnson and Adria Arjona could sit and read the phone book for 104 minutes and it'd be worth watching.

#AfterTheHunt finds Luca Guadagnino going full Woody Allen, both stylistically and meta-textually. The result is a mixed bag of moral complexities that mostly makes me want to watch MATCH POINT again. The marquee cast is fantastic, though, and sells the psychological melodrama with gusto.

#Eddington is a fascinating neo-Western that explores how the pandemic drove everyone crazy and exacerbated an all-encompassing societal decay that is still going strong today. Deeply cynical, tonally weird, more than a little messy, but never goes off the rails. Ari Aster remains undefeated.

#Elio is a nice film with nice visuals and nice characters and a message that is positive and [checks notes] nice. The story definitely feels lacking, which we now know is because it was butchered and rejiggered by the studio. Mid-tier Pixar for sure, but still a nice effort in spite of its issues.

#SentimentalValue is a sweeping story of family, memory, and legacy that packs a deeply emotional and existential punch. Stellan Skarsgård is as good as he's ever been. Renate Reinsve and Elle Fanning are perfect. Another masterful examination of the human condition from Joachim Trier.

I don't know how it would fit into the timeline but I'm gonna need an ALIEN vs. PREDATOR movie starring these two divas. 💫

Lol, sure, that oughta solve the problem.

#IKnowWhatYouDidLastSummer is a solid legacy sequel that strikes a fun balance of '90s nostalgia, present-day sensibilities, and some good, gory slasher action. Madelyn Cline is the best part of a likable young cast -- but unsurprisingly, it's Jennifer Love Hewitt who steals the show with ease.

#BringHerBack puts its child actors (and audience) through a gruesome wringer as it hammers home themes of grief and trauma, while Sally Hawkins delivers a seriously unhinged performance. The supernatural element is annoyingly convoluted -- but overall, it's an effective slice of horror.

#FinalDestinationBloodlines delivers series-best storytelling and character development to go along with the elaborately-choreographed bloody mayhem we know and love. Time will tell if these kills end up traumatizing an entire generation, but this is a blast of a horror spectacle. RIP Tony Todd.

#TheUglyStepsister is the Norwegian body horror Cinderella story we never knew we needed -- a smart, unflinching takedown of societal beauty standards that naturally draws comparisons to THE SUBSTANCE but is somehow even more gut-churningly gross. Well worth a watch if you can stomach it.

#Weapons absolutely rules. The wildest horror spectacle of the year and a perfect storm of slow-burn suspense, unhinged performances, a pervasive sense of unease, the darkest humor, and a payoff that must be seen to be believed. Zach Cregger, you are a madman and I salute you.

#NouvelleVague is a vintage Richard Linklater hangout movie, this time for cinephiles instead of stoners or athletes or lovers. Even if you're only vaguely (haha) familiar with the making of Jean-Luc Godard's BREATHLESS, this film captures the essence of the experience with breezy charm.

#OhHi! is an uneven but enjoyable dark-rom-sex-com for the twentysomething set that charms and titillates as it drops some truth bombs about dating anxiety. If you just finished watching THE BEAR and are jonesing for a new Molly Gordon fix, this movie fits the bill and then some.

#F1TheMovie pushes all the right inspirational buttons and its race sequences and scenic locales are visually impressive. Brad Pitt oozes charisma, Kerry Condon is a gem, and Hans Zimmer's score thrums. I still don't see myself becoming an F1 superfan but I was into it for 156 minutes.

#KarateKidLegends is a tough sell for even the most nostalgic fans (such as myself) as it shoehorns everything into a weird, extremely rushed package that lacks any real emotional heft. The mostly likable cast provides some fleeting charm... but otherwise this is franchise-worst stuff.

#TheLongWalk is a brutally effective adaptation of a story that was relevant decades ago as a dystopian vision of government control and violence begetting violence -- and even more so now. Cooper Hoffman and David Jonsson lead an outstanding ensemble cast. Desperately bleak but deeply human stuff.

- Re-sign Pete - Re-sign Edwin - Trade for Skubal - Sign Cease - Sign the 2-3 best available FA relievers - Let Stearns sign 1-2 reclamation projects as a treat - Sign Bichette - Win the final World Series before a long, bitter work stoppage destroys the game beyond repair Thoughts? 😁 #LGM #MetsSky

Lol, so I guess Richardson wasn't holding out for a promotion. Not to suggest that losing our first base coach to a division rival is the end of the world, but if this is an indicator of where David Stearns' head is at, we could be in for a long winter. 🤨 #LGM #MetsSky

LET'S GOOOOOO!!! 😤

As a childless person, #IfIHadLegsIdKickYou makes me respect harried mothers more than ever while also making me feel good about my own life decisions. A cinematic panic attack inside of a fever dream that puts an all-in Rose Byrne through the emotional, physical, and existential wringer.
