This is what unity looks like.

The Found Footage Feature Fund, a collaboration between the Transgender Film Center and Duplass Brothers Productions, will finance a "micro-budget production."

50 years ago The Rocky Horror Picture Show was released in the US. What a journey it’s had from flop to cult classic. My review - www.thefilmagazine.com/rocky-horror...

In one of the strangest chapters of my life, I spent several months in the trenches of Big Headlight, looking to understand just how and why headlights became brighter than the sun. Answers, graphs, penis sketches—it's all here, on the brand new Ringer site: www.theringer.com/2024/12/03/t...

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Giorgia Meloni, Italy's PM, is a far right fascist who supports Israel, but the general strike Italians carried out 2 days ago scared the shit out of her. Strikes are the most effective way to get politicians to do what you want them to do. Shut down profit and they stand to attention.

I've been Labour my whole adult life, but I can't disagree with this. Reform are indistinguishable from the National Front in 1995. And Labour are indistinguishable from Tories in 1995. That's not a progressive option. That's the other thing. It's complicity when we need radicalism. It's failure.

FORFUCKSAKE

The final Conjuring film (for now), but is it any good? New review up on the substack, go check it out and support independent film journalism. #conjuring #conjuringlastrites #horror #filmsky #moviesky #filmreview #moviereview

Fuck sake. I'm literally just writing a Word document and saving it to my hard drive. STOP ASKING ME TO USE YOUR SHITTY AI AND YOUR SHITTY CLOUD SERVICE. Why is this decades old basic task such a fucking chore now? It's broiling my shit.

Can't believe I'm writing another post like this: RIP to a cinema giant. Claudia Cardinale was maybe the most beautiful woman in film history, but more, her unforgettable feline presence graces some of the greatest movies of all time, from Visconti to Leone to Comencini. :(

Not only was she beautiful she was a superb actress, a genuine icon and as classy as they come. Claudia Cardinale RIP

Claudia Cardinale and Robert Redford dying in the same week puts the world in a hotness deficit not seen since at least the 19th century

On Wednesday's stream, remembering the actor and Sundance founder, Robert Redford. What's your favourite Redford character or film? #robertredford #sundance #filmsky #moviesky #secondcut

Those Disney+ subscription cancellations must have hit those shareholders HARD.

Miller’s Crossing is 35. Albert Finney had such a good time making Miller’s Crossing that he turned up on his day off to appear in drag when Gabriel Byrne bursts into the ladies room.

Satire is definitely dying if this is considered news, and he wouldn't be able to make Father Ted today a) because he is no longer funny on purpose; b) no one will work with him because of his views; c) there's only one Father Ted and the late Dermot Morgan is not available.

Prick. Goodnight.

Probably should start planning my 31 Days of Horror for this year…

Man, what does the right think is going to happen when Trump dies? If they can't handle the reaction to Kirk's passing, it may well drive them past the point of no return when we're out in the streets dancing and singing over Der Glorious Leader.

Disney has Tron: Ares, Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, Rental Family, Zootopia 2, Ella McCay, Avatar: Fire and Ash, and Is This Thing On? opening this year. I hope the talent involved in these movies curtails all planned publicity until the company reverses its decision about Kimmel.

BBC News captures Doctor Who himself Sylvester McCoy at the Trump protest seemingly unaware of who they're interviewing.

A producer told me once she has to warn young crewmembers to avoid being alone with Aykroyd. "Not because he's a creep, he's a gentleman. But if you let him strike up a conversation the next thing we know all the PAs will be huddled in his dressing room learning how humans evolved from dolphins."

Behold the free speecher, who sacks anyone who dissents. Bravo UK's Channel 4 TV which exposed hours of his lies last night. This is not democracy; the media need to boldly show why

What a memorable night. Live musical accompaniment for silent cinema is a must!

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Well I am well overdue a rewatch of Butch and Sundance…

RIP Robert Redford. I think this piece might get a bit hung up on how he looked, but he really was that good -

You are not Making a Difference there. You are not Fighting the Good Fight. You are not even Maintaining a Community you couldn't easily replicate elsewhere. You are propping up a right-wing site and, worse, you are being warped by your constant exposure to it and you don't even realize it. Leave.

“The pace of oppression outstrips our ability to understand it. And that is the real trick of the Imperial thought machine. It's easier to hide behind 40 atrocities than a single incident” Every day this line feels more and more relevant.

The Eyeball Monster in ALIEN:EARTH is the ‘Grogu’ that 2025 deserves.

i wrote this in *2017.* since then the right wing media has grown extensively. and yet it looks like no lessons learned. www.buzzfeednews.com/article/char...

UPEND THE ESTABLISHMENT, by voting for a party composed entirely of rejects from the oldest party in the country that was in power for 14 years. 😂 Reform UK increasingly look like the Tories just ran off stage, then ran back on wearing a comedy glasses-nose-moustache disguise.

Last night I had a vivid dream about The Santa Clause, which I’m pretty sure I’ve never seen. What does this mean?!
