If you ever wanted to get into Hong Kong action cinema but didn’t know where to begin (or more realisticly didn’t have any way to see a lot of what were pretty rare films), Criterion Channel has got you covered in October. It’s like a HK essentials starter pack. A ridiculously stacked selection.

My countdown of 20 great movies from the past 20 years continues with Tony Scott's blue-collar train actioner Unstoppable. It eschews the genre's central pillars of violence and villains, but still manages to deliver on the thrills (and the trains). pvguide.ghost.io/unstoppable-...

Challengers (2024).

VENGEANCE is an all-timer. Such a masterful, gorgeous piece of work by the great Johnnie To. Watch it! Watch it now!

My countdown of 20 great movies from the past 20 years continues with Johnnie To's fantastic 2009 movie Vengeance, which upends the revenge thriller genre by probing what it's all for. And, because it's a Johnnie To movie, it's also fun and slick as hell. pvguide.ghost.io/vengeance-20...

I spoke with Izzy Roland, her real mom, and her fake dad about their new movie D(e)ad, a supernatural comedy that is a family affair all the way through (and features plenty of familiar Dropout faces). Out in limited theaters this week: pvguide.ghost.io/izzy-roland-...

My countdown to BOTY season, recommending 20 great movies from the past 20 years, continues with Speed Racer. I love this movie so much pvguide.ghost.io/speed-racer-...

for @roguesite.bsky.social, i wrote about wanting different things from the games i play

Cannot tell you how surreal it was to commission and edit this piece from @petevolk.bsky.social, the first person who ever paid me money to write about games. It's one of my favorite things on @roguesite.bsky.social and I really hope we can get Pete back for more. Go subscribe to pvguide.ghost.io!

this was a fun one: i got to chat with Alice Wu about the new Criterion release of Saving Face. we talked rom-coms, love, betting on yourself, and revisiting such a personal project decades later. pvguide.ghost.io/alice-wu-int...

Shout Factory put the first POLICE STORY on their YouTube (subbed and 1080p!), so now you have no excuse. Watch it!

we're calling this one "dodgers from my childhood"

OMG yayyy this movie is so overlooked but also this is a great interview

We are literally watching neighbors be snatched and living in fear. Seniors, families, students, kids. Shameful.

I'm counting down to BOTY season by recommending 20 great movies from the past 20 years. Next up, 2007's Sunshine, the star-studded, visually astounding sci-fi thriller Danny Boyle and Alex Garland made instead of 28 Weeks Later. pvguide.ghost.io/sunshine-mov...

One of the year's best new movies is finally available to watch at home -- Baby Assassins 3 is another absolute winner from Yugo Sakamoto and Kensuke Sonomura, delivering another high mark in the best action-comedy franchise running today. My review: pvguide.ghost.io/baby-assassi...

after months of complaints about sports talk on bsky, it is very funny to see many of the same people invent a crisis of no one talking about the taylor swift engagement on this website, when my timeline is filled with it bc of sports people. please free us from the discourse of what this website is

my picks for what to watch this weekend -- crime thrillers galore, including a criminally (ayyy) underrated Aubrey Plaza movie that is on Netflix pvguide.ghost.io/weekend-watc...

I’m a firm believer that with SHIN GODZILLA returning to theaters, Toho should also re-release the figurines of the kaiju giving apologetic press conferences.

SHIN GODZILLA is currently back in cinemas and you should go watch it. I wrote about how it stands apart from other Godzilla movies, and how its apocalyptic sensations feel troublesome and relevant. www.patreon.com/posts/137110...

There it is. The Golden Princess restorations are coming to The Channel on October 1.

I'm counting down to BOTY season by recommending 20 great movies from the past 20 years. Next up, 2006's Undisputed II: Last Man Standing, a terrific direct-to-video martial arts movie that genuinely rewired how I watch movies. I had fun digging into why: pvguide.ghost.io/undisputed-i...
