Not even William IV?

Had screenings where I've significantly brought down the average age of the audience. This may be the first where I'm significantly bringing down the Kinsey score of the audience (or at least my row).

This was my evening. Listen for my review on Episode 412, scheduled for release September 24.

We know there was a problem with Episode 401. It should now be resolved. Apologies for the speedbump.

It gives one a feeling of almost indescribable irony to get out of MATERIALISTS, turn on one's phone, and have the first notification be from Hinge that "Your Most Compatible has been updated".

On this week's episode (number 395) we talk about crossovers we'd like to see (but never will) and one of the ideas was Ethan Hunt chasing down Dominic Toretto. What crazy mash ups would you like to see?

I've said many mean things about the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and their signature event, The Golden Globe Awards. Well, I say to you here and now: we're getting nominated for this, and within five years, we'll win, or my name isn't Sarah Koenig. deadline.com/2025/05/gold...

Is it weird that my initial reaction is that the Ringo is the one I most want to see?

We promise not to do the naughty, naughty thing we did this year on next year's livestream. (We make no promises about other, new, different naughty things.)

This is awesome and you should read it so @mikeryan.bsky.social gets to do more of them.

My evening:

My Best Picture ballot: 1 THE SUBSTANCE 2 ANORA 3 CONCLAVE 4 A COMPLETE UNKNOWN 5 NICKEL BOYS 6 I'M STILL HERE 7 WICKED 8 THE BRUTALIST 9 EMILIA PÉREZ 10 DUNE: PART TWO

Maybe you can find it in your hearts to support this wonderful human being, that is currently in the financial fight with their defects. They curate the funniest memes for us, and they are also extremely solidly antifascist. I have donated, will do so again in the near future. Please do, too.

I guess I've got to watch EMILIA PÈREZ now (despite the objections of the trans community) and track down I'M STILL HERE. #OscarNoms

Only Cinematography for MARIA. Huh. #OscarNoms

13 total for EMILIA PÈREZ?! That's a GIGANTIC number. #OscarNoms

In the Best Actress musical chairs, the song ended for Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Pamela Anderson, Nicole Kidman, and Lily-Rose Depp. #OscarNoms

I'M STILL HERE a HUGE shock to me for Best Picture. #OscarNoms

Coralie for Best Director! YESSSS!! #OscarNoms

Justice for Marianne Jean-Baptiste, please. #OscarNoms

It seems people saw THE APPRENTICE... #OscarNoms

Lots for THE BRUTALIST. #OscarNoms

A worrying amount of below-the-line EMILIA PÈREZ love (i.e., Editing). #OscarNoms

I am what I am: I don't care much for FLOW. #OscarNoms

Does this mean NO OTHER LAND will actually get distribution? #OscarNoms

What do you know? Maybe THIS is Diane Warren's year! #OscarNoms

No Denzel in Supporting Actor. A better movie might've helped. #OscarNoms

Monica Barbaro for Supporting Actress is a (welcome, pleasant) surprise. #OscarNoms

YES! SEPTEMBER 5 for Original Screenplay! #OscarNoms

Adapted Screenplay: CONCLAVE would be my pick, but SING SING is a nice arrival. #OscarNoms

In makeup, there's THE SUBSTANCE and there's "everyone else go home". #OscarNoms

Nice! Borisov and Strong and Culin and Norton! #OscarNoms

Here to live-react to the #OscarNoms. Hoping for good news about THE SUBSTANCE and maybe a mention or two of SEPTEMBER 5.

Out of respect for his fans, I will forego comment: variety.com/2025/film/ne...

#EvanHansen is Universal's greatest monster since Bela Lugosi's Dracula.

What's the worst movie you saw in 2024? We're about to record our show on that topic and we'd like contributions!

What kind of sicko does it make me if I saw BOTH prequels (EXORCIST: THE BEGINNING and DOMINION: PREQUEL TO THE EXORCIST) in theaters, on their initial release?

Mike Leigh imagines what a #Bond film directed by him would look like: "The entire film would be James Bond visiting his elderly mother in a suburban house, spending a bit of time with her, and then leaving," he tells Empire.

[post credits Samuel L Jackson] “a complete unknown.” Did you really think you were the only one traveling? I’m here to talk to you about the Wilbury Initiative.

As I'm shutting down my account over on The Bad Place, I figured I'd start one here. If you don't know me, I'm co-host of @neonmoviebunker.bsky.social and member of @cic.bsky.social I have a personal account here as well that you can find without too much sleuthing.
