Reminder for the new year

Tapping the sign...well, the screengrab:

@emmawestwood.bsky.social Funko's coming for your wallet soon.

Happy tenth anniversary to the best thing to come out of those CW shows: the most James Gunn thing he had nothing to do with. LEGENDS OF TOMORROW is about a group chosen because they're inconsequential who save time over seven seasons. Increasingly awesome and nuckin' futs. Never plateaus.

Japan would like to introduce you fools to MUJI (無印, "no brand")

The Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona is a Modernist concert hall designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, completed in 1908. This UNESCO World Heritage Site features a dazzling auditorium bathed in natural light from stained-glass skylights and walls, with an inverted dome evoking sun and sky.

Finally got to see HELLZAPOPPIN'. Joe Dante said it's a huge influence on GREMLINS 2 and, like FARSCAPE on GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, it's easy to see why. Not in a rip-off way; both have a healthy love of... anarchic non-sequiturs. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Westminster Bridge, London — Apparently this happens at 2pm every day.

Niki Caro's NORTH COUNTRY and Jang Cheol-soo's BEDEVILLED are very similar. Both are about a woman who's beat down by misogyny in her community from all sides. Both also have a happy ending, of sorts. One, thanks to the legal system. The other, in an ultraviolent fashion. Guess which. #Movies

“We are getting old. My wife already has symptoms of dementia. We would like to see the day that our eldest daughter and [her partner] Yoko can be recognized as a married couple, just like the other children, within the life we still have left." buff.ly/ZiTsr5s

Bandcamp Bans AI-Generated Music, Pledging To Put Human Creativity First metalinjection.net/news/bandcam...

Men created AI-generated images of this woman and used them to create an OnlyFans account so they can make money off abusing her. They can do this to any of us, and no one’s doing enough to stop them. I feel like I’m screaming into the void.

"I’m really glad AEW allows its performers to be themselves."

If you can’t go to a protest, tell someone about it so they can go. If you don’t feel comfortable posting on social media, start a conversation with someone. Resistance and opposition to tyranny needs all sizes.

At the centre of the claim is the firm's practice of scaling service fees according to ticket prices rather than the cost of services provided.

@severinfilms.bsky.social Loving the latest Danza Macabra almost as much as knowing you'll be releasing THE GHOST soon, with a doc I've wanted for a while and didn't know existed. Barbara Steele's the gift who keeps on giving.

Tubi's been fantastic at filling the Rosalba Neri-sized hole in my Letterboxd. It seems that whatever trash Arrow Player doesn't have, Tubi is there with a can of Old Milwaukee. Whenever I go classy again, I wonder how much Isabelle Adjani is waiting there with a flute of Laurent-Perrier. #Movies

Now that enough time's passed, can we finally admit "Around the World in a Day" is a damn fine album? Yeah, it's not "Purple Rain", which isn't "1999", and neither are "Sign o' the Times". There're "Paisley Park", "America", "Pop Life", and his reply to "She Bop": www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1cL...

Angry Young Men™ watching grifters who make their lives more miserable and take their money should watch this (and MARTY) instead. One character's a war veteran who feels he needs to be a tough guy all the time is ruining his marriage because of it, before the honeymoon's over. Hint, hint. #Movies

Last year was too classy, so I'm starting this year trashy. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

@emmawestwood.bsky.social Congrats on getting included in Umbrella's Universal set. Good to know they didn't bungle it like Shout and their Fly Collection.

Happy birthday, David Bowie. Here's one of my favorite songs from my favorite album. Like I wouldn't pick the concept album about a future where artists use murder as their medium, that also has a song in my favorite David Lynch film. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mc4b...

Reposting this. Anyone still pretending that this rabble of fascists and ammosexuals constitutes professional law enforcement is either a moron, a liar, or in the case of a Trumpist, both.

@emmawestwood.bsky.social You and Sally Christie made a great team on the BABA YAGA commentary. Heard one last year that was like a badly-chaired committee meeting. P.S., Thanks for giving me my new favorite euphemism: "channeling the spirit of the occasion".

The famous Star Chamber, a room in Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham, London.

Thrilled by this list of special features (a thread to explain why this is so great) - on the new Vinegar Syndrome 4K Upscale release of #TankGirl. (Order now - make it matter).

Ended '25 with I VAMPIRI, Italy's first horror movie. Also its first vampire/mad scientist movies. Began '26 with SCALA!!!, about England's theatre for outcasts. Goes well with MIDNIGHT MOVIES, about the Elgin Cinema in the US. ERASERHEAD was important to both. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched
