Inappropriate laughter at movies is not a new phenomenon. I saw Mulholland Drive on initial release and people laughed all throughout. Noir City screenings in Seattle in the '00s were full of chuckleheads. Really depends on the audience/venue/location.

RT if you’ve never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period.

Every time I see this meme in the wild I get a little thrill because I was in the room (I was a writer/producer/editor on this video along with my comrades. Shot in 2019 during Fantastic Fest). The only evidence I can offer is this photo of @zeepeegeebee.bsky.social in a cat head in the same room

In a doctor's office waiting room and there's a weird nu-country cover of Bowie's "Rebel Rebel" with reworked lyrics playing. Reprehensible!

Woke up at 4am with the John Fahey-esque Cul de Sac song from the Dildo Heaven soundtrack stuck in my head, found out it is in fact a John Fahey cover and is on bandcamp here (for everyone else suffering from this specific ailment) strangeattractorsaudiohouse.bandcamp.com/track/the-po...

“does the fiction film have coherent radical politics?” is a question that sounds like “can you take me to the potty? i can’t go by myself!”

Fond memory of smoking weed out of a pinch hitter with @colonelmortimer.bsky.social outside under the marquee before going to watch Ninja (2009) on Thanksgiving day after our shift at Scarecrow.

If there’s a better obituary for an evil cartoonist than an A.I. generated version of his character that fucks up the defining detail of its design, I can’t think of it. No notes. 👨🏻‍🍳 💋

holy fuck it’s real

wow really helpful, thank you new york times

Recommend for the Estus Pirkle films alone!

In INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS when the Sam Jackson voiceover says, "At that time, 35mm nitrate film was so flammable..." the "at that time" really annoys me, because there is no time in which 35mm nitrate film wasn't flammable.

The Kate Bush Christmas Special feat. Peter Gabriel (1979) aquariumdrunkard.com/2023/12/21/t... Amongst the plethora of classic televised Christmas specials are lesser-known outliers that haven’t become ubiquitous holiday viewing. Case in point: The Kate Bush Christmas Special (1979).

Joe Pesci’s fit on the Home Alone press featurette:

Virginia Heffernan wrote this shortly after the 2016 election and it still holds true

When he finally goes, there is only one person I will feel sorry for: the cemetery worker who has to hose all the urine and feces off his grave every day

Paramount is really going for an overly aggressive hostile takeover, eh? Who could have seen that coming? Oh wait...

When I was in middle school some boys in the locker room said if you laid on one arm until it was numb and then touched yourself with it, it was like being touched by someone else. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

Here I am surrounded by geriatric ladies. One - in a dark passage - frightened me - thought she was a ghost.

This is my absolute favorite photo of Udo Kier. Taken at Smitty's BBQ in Lockhart, TX in (I think) 2002 when he visiting Alamo Drafthouse's original location for screenings of Dracula and Frankenstein.

"Everything's A-OK" = the aquatic version of the "Everything's fine" meme.

A rich and powerful man voluntarily bearing a cross onstage, but adding wheels so it's not remotely difficult, is the perfect picture for our country.

Picking just three underrated masterpieces from this list: Last Hurrah for Chivalry: Everything Woo would do in his Heroic Bloodshed films, but in the guise of a 70s wuxia film. School on Fire: Ringo's bleakest, and best, movie. Blind Detective: Every great Johnnie To film rolled into one movie.
