B/c I know the story it's based on, it seems like mucho fun, but, & I'm gonna quote my not-a-comics-reader friend on this after he saw Superman, "I'm puzzled at how much it feels like the old Snyder DCEU." (I told him then: Biggest difference: Coherent stories & characters that're like the comics.)

Seems like a good time to remind people of this -- the '60s and '70s Air Pirates books and strips... Disney sued the artists into oblivion for PARODYING their IP. ‼️NOTE:‼️ ⚠️NOT SAFE FOR WORK!!⚠️ (or home for that matter!⚠️)

Literally about to hit RECORD for my podcast, & SIRENS. For 8 mins now. Someone better be VERY dead. Also, elevator in my building is noisy, and suddenly a LOT of people are going up and down. I mean, it's 4pm, but it's still noisier than usual. And now...a plane is apparently landing on my roof.

Hate to say it, b/c of a particular problematic member of the cast...but it's THE REF. That its cast includes Judy Davis, Christine Baranski, JK Simmons, Mary Poppins' Gynis Johns, and Denis Leary perhaps at his best (whether you like his schtick or not) ALL makes up for the🤢! #FilmSky #XmasMovies

I love this piece by Ron Lim, Scott Koblish, & colorist Andrew Crossley. #Spider-Man #Wolverine

While he's correct, not sure how this guy's making his point. The movies in the HBO vid linked include On Golden Pond, Superman, SW, Arthur, cult classics Super-Fuzz & Flash Gordon, & Cannonball Run, bsky.app/profile/ther...

The Tree of Life from Terrence Malick. Surreal, weird, touching and amazing experimental film that I'd only recommend to a movie lover that absolutely adores artsy experimental film.

Annnd now I've SHUT OFF John Wick spinoff movie BALLERINA. de Armas shot a guy point blank & his body didn't react (he died, but she might as well have thrown marshmallows at him). She took 2 kicks to her torso by a trained fighter; barely reacted. Make me BELIEVE the fake fighting Just a LITTLE!

Decided to turn on John Wick spinoff BALLERINA. 15 mins in, the action is FUN, but every dramatic moment is making me giggle... Also, someone needed to tell the Foley team not every piece of metal goes "shhhinng!" when touched... and punching flesh doesn't make a CRUNCH sound.

"Why're you using the Wayback Machine to see your old website?" nobody asked... Well, my next podcast is a special🎄 #Xmas episode. I'll be playing my poem THE GREAT BIG SANTA🎅STORY—the background music, DL'd YEARS AGO, is from people I could never find... 👉🔗👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

To my surprise, the WAYBACK MACHINE has cached my old website! Image 2 is from inside the "Keithedral"—which is why it has that background & a window on the upper right. Image 3 lists my early RAILWAY CITY stories, what eventually became THE REALITY COMICS! Those links are the scripts I'd written!

Tis the season, so it's time for Z0MBEE the Snowman!! #Christmas #XmasMusic I made this a few years ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwlq...

Ted Sarandos says he wants to release movies theatrically if he nabs WB. Do we believe him???? #FilmSky www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Not sure what the Netflix acquisition of WB means for movie theaters, but AMC just announced “Hand Shadow Wednesdays”.

So disappointed to learn DD's not into punk music.

Am doing my podcast MONTHLY & find it hard to keep up w/the sked. Maybe it's cuz I'm concurrently looking for a new job (pretty sure my co's doors are gonna shut w/in the yr), a new home (my neighborhood is no longer safe), & am working on other creative projects—but still. #Film #Movies #FilmSky

With the Paul Dano & Matthew Lillard controversy (& no one defending Wilson), is NOW a good time to mention: Telling a fictional story surrounded by nonfictional history which u alter at the end for SHOCK VALUE isn't great filmmaking. It's childish storytelling. Esp'ly if there's ZERO foreshadowing.

😆 100% correct...but I also don't think Tarantino was wrong about either of those guys and their dramatic work (I know, I know—I'm controversially in the minority). That said, Dano in Little Miss Sunshine is probably his best perf imo. Also, Tarantino should NEVER be in ANY movies, esp'ly his own!

The Third Man & A Baby is pretty good, but here were some others from the Movie Poster Recycling page.... #Movies #FilmSky

Skydancer's David Ellison right now... #FilmSky

Hard to say which of the potential deals is worse.... www.cbsnews.com/news/paramou...

Read ish 1 of Universal Monsters: Frankenstein, from Image's Skybound. Gorgeous. Story takes place in nooks & crannies between scenes of Whale's 1931 movie. But, um, the end seems to (I think inadvertently) indicate Fritz is going to, erm, molest this child? Not sure how else to read the last line.

If, somehow, you've never see THE IN-LAWS, starring Columbo's Peter Falk & The Rocketeer's (and Little Miss Sunshine's) Alan Arkin, you can WATCH IT FREE on FANDANGO! And you absolutely should—NOW! #Comedy #Movies #WhattoWatch #FilmSky athome.fandango.com/content/browse/details/The-In-Laws/9788

Another gorgeous shot from Web of Spider-Man Annual #2. Art Adams really showing Spidey using his body to swing himself up toward the rooftops. What REALLY needs to be talked about is the back-up story w/art from Mike Mignola! 3rd pic, panel 4: Inspiration for Art the Clown? 🧵🧵

Been watching the failed THREE'S COMPANY spinoff THREE'S A CROWD. It's as unwatchable as I remembered. Halfway thru its sole season, they brought in Jessica Walter (whom I knew from MASH spinoff series TRAPPER JOHN, MD & thought was fairly sexy)... & she's basically playing Lucille Bluth (in 1985):

A big fan of WEB OF SPIDEY back in the day, was shocked to see that GORGEOUS Vess cover & realize I don't own it! So I goggled. Gen'ly well-written by underrated Ann Nocenti, it's NOT great. But Art Adams drew a FUN book & check this EXPERTLY scripted panel written for that first-time Spidey reader:

The offer in the below post is cool...but the 50th anniversary chainsaw collection is 🔥🔥😮!! selects.darkskyfilms.com/collections/...

Movie theaters forever‼️ (but I wish they'd do a better job at ensuring the movie-going experience!! [i.e., keep people off their phones during screenings!])

Would love to, just once, at a teaser trailer that honestly states: PREPARE... TO BE... DISAPPOINTED! I'd go see that movie

Late last night i discovered my podcast on 🎁👓🎄A CHRISTMAS STORY🎁👓🎄somehow did NOT upload, & it wasn't available! Welp, it is NOW! Just a little over 30 mins of what makes the First 10 Pages of this movie SING! And how the script differs VASTLY from the movie! 🎄📽👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Whoops!! I completely forgot the link to the article!.... #FunPageFriday #ScriptSky #Writerslife #WriterSky harpers.org/archive/2024...

In addition to the Times piece, Harper's Daniel Bessner wrote about how Hollywood got destroyed by investment firms while eating itself from the inside out. The below selections explain how private equity firms have decimated #Hollywood from multiple angles. #ScriptSky #Writerslife #WriterSky

This panic over the Netflix/WB deal is NOT overblown. It is ABSOLUTELY terrible for the industry. Netflix is NOT a company that has been historically friendly to filmmakers (w/rare exceptions) & is not a company vested in the moviegoing experience. #FilmSky #Movies www.nytimes.com/2025/12/06/b...

For fellow fans of TV, #comicbooks & #cartoons: Got this code via e-mail. They've a lot of cool exclusives and only have this sale 2x a year. They DON'T discount further (i made the mistake of waiting for 25% last year—it never came)... (Disclaimer: I don't know what evil corporation owns MeTV)

Holy sh!t. B/c she -- as far as I know -- doesn't perform anymore and b/c the last big hit she's associated with was a ballad, it's SO easy to forget what an absolutely incredible performer Midler was! #Music #MusicSky

Is this the greatest album cover art of all time?? (Yes.)

There is now a ROBOCOP statue in (old) Detroit! #FilmSky #Horrormovies www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

YES‼️to the below! ALSO: Don't put into the action: 1. A long paragraph, esp'ly one describing minutiae that doesn't give VISIBLE context to what we'll see ONSCREEN. Save that for your novel!! 2. Information on what ur character is THINKING. That's what actors are for. #ScriptSky #screenwriting

So, just to be clear, when i was FIVE years old, I (& hundreds of other kids) had the emotional intelligence to understand Han was in mortal danger and that *he* shot first BECAUSE OF THAT. But b/c Geo. Lucas STILL finds that scene unclear, it's been 40-something yrs since that cut existed.

Is it too late for #FirstPageFriday? And #FunPageFriday? These are from my comedy feature spec,📽 LIARS: A full-of-himself-but-gutless screenwriter is drafted by an “undercover mercenary botanist" to help save the world from the most dangerous lawn care product ever! Feedback always welcome.

#TopShelfFriday - the resurrection of ELEKTRA! Collecting comics for ~2 yrs, my buddy had been scrounging for Miller's whole run. I went a dif't way: Owner at my LCS said he'd get the whole run w/💵i in advance, so I asked my WHOLE family for ONE gift for the holidays. They were like "You're SURE?"😁
