GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE (Prime) KILL BILL: THE WHOLE BLOODY AFFAIR (VOD) & DUST BUNNY (VOD) Have all been dumped online/streaming in Aus. All of which would've been amazing to see in a cinema.

I saw COLD STORAGE over a year ago at a test screening. Going by the responses and scoring in that room, I thought it was gonna be a GIGANTIC hit. (Or at least get a wide release with proper marketing).

I cannot even BEGIN to describe the feeling of seeing THE BRIDE! in IMAX where almost the entire audience was audibly and visibly not prepared for what was happening on screen. (The movie is fucking great. Long live messy auteur all or nothing emotional passion projects).

Quite the honour to speak with Ben Hania. The director of THE VOICE OF HIND RAJIB.

I HIGHLY recommend seeing THE VOICE OF HIND RAJAB, paying full price for a ticket, crying uncontrollably then getting angry afterwards thinking about why: - It's not in wide release, - Didn't win the Venice top prize & - Isn't the front runner for Best Foreign Language at this year's Oscars

"Chris, don't see it for a 7th time. You've seen it enough. Don't do it. I know a Paul Thomas Anderson film will probably never screen in full IMAX ever again but you've overdone it"

I still remember my parents being VERY concerned that 11 year old me would watch this almost on a loop.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Call me cynical, call me out of touch, but I can't see Tropfest continuing in its current form for more than a year or two. If there's an event next year, it'll be drastically reduced from this year. Allowing AI films like this to be included will push filmmakers away.

I'm shooting my next movie in June. Mark my words, the opening credit (I'm not kidding) will be: "Absolutely no fucking AI was used in the making of this film"

For a minute today the reviews for THE BRIDE! on RT were spilt 1:1 along gender lines, and I found that a bit embarrassing. I found the movie to be audacious and chaotic in the best way; it’s the kind of (apparently) divisive remix that people will be revisiting and reappraising for years.

Me every single goddamn time (V excited for The Bride!)

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

Tenet and The Matrix Resurrections

One great disappointment, one giant surprise, and two others that met expectations (Positive)

It's been more than 20 years since Tony wrote Munich. Watching the film get written, shot, and released was an extraordinary experience, and I don't think anyone has talked to Tony about it with more thoroughness and insight than Corey has here.

Just got asked this so asking BlueSky folks: A celebrated/well respected director whose films and choices you don't gel with? Bonus points if you can name a favourite of their work or a film of theirs you dug.

Anthony Albanese called Grace Tame “difficult” in a News Corp word game. Donald Trump was merely “president”. Throughout history women who fight to better society get punished and labelled problems Men who are convicted criminals and whose policies kill are more likely to get a pat on the back

"If I was to use ChatGPT for my designs rather than our designer Sean, that's taking money out of the local area into the hands of a multibillionaire ... removing value from the local community and local artists [and] into the hands of some of the richest people in the world." #AIslop #refuseresist

My usual price for a camera at Panavision has gone up by $700 (Our sound budget) - When I went to another hire place to see if they could match the quote, I was then told "Panavision, even with that increase are giving you a 93% discount" ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️ Good LORD. I'm fucked.

Share a movie that no one else remembers that you regularly think about

would love if you read this, I put a lot into it, thanks!

I will use this to say in a time where every film is lit poorly or without any intention that THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER is a 92 minute film school and if filmmakers now studied it more, we'd have much better films on offer (At least aesthetically).

Do you know how hard this was? 1 The Thing 2 Assault on P 13 3 They Live 4 Ghosts of Mars 5 Christine 6 The Fog 7 Cigarette Burns 8 Halloween 9 Dark Star 10 Escape NY 11 Prince of Darkness 12 Invisible Man 13 Vampires 14 Big Trouble 15 Mouth of Madness 16 Escape LA 17 The Ward

Give me a director and I'll rank their filmography (Of the ones I've seen) Nothing too obscure, plz

Miami Vice - Opening weekend in 2006 (I was 15 and noooot expecting what I got)

I just need to only watch queer romance dramas and Australian killer croc thrillers and I'm all set.

Friends, I find out if I get my dream location tomorrow. If it all lines up, I'm making another fucken movie in June!!

This. This. And this again. Going to the movies every week and seeing any old shit, whether I liked it or not always rejuvenates me. I don't think I've seen a single streaming only release in the last 12 months.

Hey, gang! I hope you all check out this bonus episode of @bedevstld.bsky.social, in which I interview filmmaker Tina Romero about her directorial debut QUEENS OF THE DEAD. I want to thank Tina for taking the time to join me to discuss the film and her dad George A. Romero’s legacy. Links are below!

So, in order to access DM's to prove that I'm not 5 years old - Bluesky want me to scan any of the following: - My face - My ID And/or - My Credit Cards Friends, please don't DM on here. I can be mgsed on any other platform. Apologias.

Hey @weinbergs.bsky.social has anyone taken on Tony Scott's DOMINO for Overhated? If not, please give me a year to become famous so I can call dibs.

Man, I cannot fucking WAIT to open my next movie with "Absolutely no fucking A.I was used in the making of this film because we know what we're doing."

buncha fucking losers.

What the world needs now is another podcast. So, we've got a new one. What Would You Like to Tell Me About? Launches tomorrow. Intro episode here: www.thecurb.com.au/what-would-y...

Oh....oh no.

So, CRIME 101 is a 140 minute Heat knock-off that's being released in February? Close enough. Welcome back, DEN OF THIEVES.

Alright friends - I'm sick as fuck and playing catch up with 70s, 80s & 90s films I've never seen: What am I watching tonight? - Dazed and Confused - The Killing of a Chinese Bookie - Paper Moon - First Blood - My Own Private Idaho

"Luckily the police seemed more than excited to step in and get as violent as needed to make sure he doesn't feel homesick" - Premier Minns chaser.com.au/national/nsw...

I can’t express how outrageous this whole thing is, but I’ve given it a go! #auspol For shame @albomp.bsky.social @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social
