you remember in batman returns when the the penguin says to max shreck "i believe the word you're looking for is.......AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"? that's how everything always feels now.

i worship nala sinephro, cannot describe how eager i am to hear what she has come up with for this

Gen X was right about sellouts

so what i'm getting here is Hegesth flew out 800 generals or whatever for a massive, mandatory public (anti-)DEI workplace training event?

what are your favorite youtube channels? looking for history, home repair, cars, cooking, old tv/commercial streams/specials of any kind, any educational essay stuff, animals, plants, idk anything where i can either learn something or veg out to it

lots of good info in here about the U.S. electrical grid circa 1899 if you’re interested!

17 people are dead from US strikes in the Caribbean this month and we still don't really know who they are and so far the president and VP have made jokes about scared fishermen.

Every time I watch any Pete Hegseth speech, it's clear the main audience for said speech is his own insecurities.

Just finished listening to this on my way into work today and it's as good as I felt it was gonna be - Rob's decision to get into Chandrasekhar's autobio was a wise one.

putting in my two cents here to say that johnny knoxville is unspeakably hot

a very well-timed zoom out

his obsession with & branding of the word "warfighters" really sums it all up beautifully. just so stupid and, bc of his position, very scary

hegseth is so classically desperate. been chasing after something his entire life that doesn't exist anymore and that he couldn't achieve anyways. he has finally failed upwards into a position that allows him to act like patton towards the war on woke. beyond pathetic

Hilarious that, by the traditional definition of the term, none of these are New Wave films nor are they directed by New Wave directors.

started playing blue prince 🙌

A gentle reminder: “movie tariffs,” whether a good idea or not, don’t have to do with international films. It’s that an increasing majority of Hollywood film and TV is produced outside of the US, much less Los Angeles, often with non-union crews. Whether tariffs are the solution is the question.

sensei right out the gate establishing himself as one of the great movie characters

i cannot even begin to wrap my mind around the fact that the entire benicio stretch exists the way it does because of benicio. he comes in with ideas about who sensei is & what he's got going & it literally shapes 1/3 of the movie, give him all the awards

i'd heard so much about the car chase at the end of obaa & it was so different than i expected. the peek-a-boo of it is unnerving but i also found it meditative? duel keeps coming up but also like a blend of claude lelouch's "rendezvous" in opposite terrain & frankenheimer's grand prix

We gotta start funding the arts again, I can’t see another dogshit statue.

Saying “Perfidia Beverly Hills” the way Danny Huston says “Cherry Roosevelt Fat Bozo Chowing Spaghetti”

woke up thinking about "a few small beers"

take a look at the pigbutt worm, just floating asses in the deep sea the size of chickpeas they use mucus to capture marine snow

there's a certain shot of sean penn in obaa i have not stopped thinking about. actually, 2

Sean Penn in One Battle After Another

the second act of obaa was reminding me of pta's "daydreaming" video. lots of doors, spaces leading to other spaces

wasn't prepared for sean penn channeling the vince mcmahon gait

i had a visceral reaction to locke's dad popping up in one battle after another

the iron rose is the ultimate how to light the night movie

cannot explain the degree to which this is about to become my #1 go-to video

phil hartman appearing on talk soup & telling greg kinnear "you're not so cocky without all those spoons floating around your head, are you?" lmaoooooooooooo

the iron rose is the ultimate how to light the night movie

i've had like a 15 year attachment to the way heidi klum says nina garcia

personally offended the project runway finale is only 60 minutes

I am very excited to announce that I worked on @arrowvideo.bsky.social upcoming 4K release of the Italian Gothic classic THE HOUSE WITH LAUGHING WINDOWS. I contributed an essay to the booklet. The film is now available for pre-order for a December release. diabolikdvd.com/product/4k-t...

I launched a new film journal last month and have not been great about promoting it. This has been a big passion project for me and is intended to release quarterly, with new essays, interviews and cartoons. The first issue is on sale now for $10 and any support would mean a lot!

HADES II is out today – the game's beautiful artistry extends to its animated launch trailer from The Line. Here's my interview for @cartoonbrew.bsky.social with the trailer's director (plus TONS of production art) about the tricks used to adapt the game's art style and making the gods feel human:

vistavision obaa ticket secured 🙌

frankly offended that they didn't make timothy olyphant watch a scream 2 clip in that vanity fair video wtf

💯

finished dexter: resurrection (s1) & i'm here to report it is the best dexter thing in, like, at least 15 years. low bar, but still. overdelivers. rlly good location shooting in nyc. a locked-in michael c. hall. all the show's quirks we love to hate but it finds the formula back to the good as well

put me on your pod! (pls)

i admit i have let death stranding get the best of me. i can't get this damn package delivered and so i am giving up about 15 hours in. this is how i get with games, i just don't have the patience! my time is precious, i want to work for it but not to the point of getting truly stuck
