Yesterday, for Mel Brooks' 100th birthday, 7,000 fans gathered in the main square of Bologna, Italy, to sing “Happy Birthday” to him. Mel himself replied with a video message, and then the crowd watched Young Frankenstein together. ❤️ #Filmsky 📽️

I used to really look up to this guy but he’s now a pathetic old man who wholeheartedly believes in the power of snake oil. Even worse, he says it’s ‘cause he "doesn’t have to get money, go shoot, deal with actors". THAT’S FILMMAKING YOU DRIED UP PRUNE!!! #SchradersGone

Worse than prostitution.

There is nothing sadder and more disgusting at the same time as Paul Schrader, who, on the threshold of his 80th birthday, promotes generative AI slop on Facebook day after day. His more famous friends are no better either. Shame on them. These people have ceased to exist for us. #FuckAI

A great birthday present: I have signed a contract with @kentuckypress.bsky.social for my biography: “Sean Connery: A Self Made Man” which will be available to buy in 2027

Data centers "have become a proxy for the hate towards AI and the concentration and accumulation of wealth it’s creating."

“No, he's a sex offender. With a record. He served 6 months in Chino for exposing himself to an eight-year-old.”

“Shut the fuck up, Donny. Life does not stop and start at your convenience, you miserable piece of shit.”

True, anyone who knew and worked with the late, great Stan Winston can attest to that. We're sure Jim Cameron feels the same way. *SarcMark* The crew of Terminator 2: Judgment Day made a T-shirt out of Cameron's on-set insults used during filming. *Sorry, we couldn't resist* #Filmsky 📽️

Production is underway on Monster Maker, a documentary about Stan Winston, the legendary special effects artist behind some of the most memorable and terrifying creatures ever put on screen.

55 years ago today, Robert Altman’s McCabe & Mrs. Miller redefined the Western—turning myth into melancholy, grit into poetry. Still one of cinema’s most haunting anti-westerns. Dive into the story behind the masterpiece ⬇️⬇️⬇️ cinephiliabeyond.org/mccabe-mrs-m... #Filmsky 📽️

49 years ago today, William Friedkin dropped Sorcerer (1977)—a film so intense, so unforgiving, it took decades for the world to catch up. Still one of the greatest exercises in pure cinematic tension ever made. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ cinephiliabeyond.org/sorcerer/ #Filmsky 📽️

Shut the fuck up, Donny!

It's a brutal reality check.

The second-biggest scam in human history (first place is held by AI). We sincerely wish that everyone who invested in SpaceX will be left without all their money.

And how low in life do you have to go to act for Uwe Boll? Doesn't that unfortunate Armie Hammer have something more meaningful to do, like enjoying a nice Chianti or having friends for dinner?

The craziest article title ever! 🤣 #Filmsky 📽️

Today is the 30th anniversary of one of my favorite films of all time, John Sayles' LONE STAR. Forget the Alamo.

This reeks of total fascism. Fuck Sam Altman and all those cowards who fear him and kiss his ass. Or is the movie so bad that everyone gave up? We don't believe it. #FuckAI
