Now I have a half dozen 2025 movies to watch that weren’t even on my radar. But really, you should read this just for the way @rosiejoy.bsky.social writes about Roofman.

Okay, I still don’t get the point of the heart on @letterboxd.social Are there a bunch of 1 star reviews with hearts? Or are they just for people who don’t give star reviews? Wouldn’t a more useful button be a dropdown to indicate how a movie was watched: DVD, VHS, DCP, IMAX, 70mm, streaming, etc.

I thought we’d save each other. We did. #firstfourwatched2026

I watched all the James Bond and M:I movies in 2025. Now I need some goals for 2026. @letterboxd.social

One last trip to the movie theater in 2025 with a kid who’s graduating high school this year and for whom this movie means everything. #op

Sorry, Baby and Eephus were the biggest unexpected knockouts for me in 2025. So far, The Dead Thing by @elrickane.bsky.social is the only one I own a copy of, but I’m waiting for it and and couple of others to come out on DVD. #toptenmovies2025

In 2025 I discovered that Joe Don Baker was a hell of an actor. #favoritediscoveries2025

Make a Bond film casual The Guy Who Nudged Me

It was a pretty good 2025 at the @newbeverly.bsky.social Should it be Death Proof or Pump Up the Volume to kick off 2026?

I wrote a song in the late 90s called Four Rooms while watching Four Rooms in my apartment which only had 3 rooms, or I guess 5 rooms if you include the kitchen and living room. If you own a copy of Mollystongue’s “Running Out of People to Blame” you may have heard it. @newbeverly.bsky.social

As you wish.

Spielberg is also one of the best producers to ever do it. He was personally responsible for John Patrick Shanley’s insanely surreal fairy tale JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO getting made at all, and giving Shanley the tools to make the best possible version of the movie that could have been made.

It’s the MOST wonderful poooooooooooooodcast of the yeeeeeeeaaaaaaarrrrrrr

Why is @riskeadam.bsky.social dressed like this? Listen to our Holiday Episode this Wednesday to find out!! #FTM800

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

I know all about self-denial. #lastfourwatched

Sorry, Baby is number 5 on my 2025 top ten. It’s not a bucket of popcorn good time Saturday night but it’s one of the best adult dramas I’ve seen in years. Hope Eva Victor makes 50 more movies. Don’t ask me about Hamnet tho. My device glowed red & singed my fingers while reading this Rob report.

I should be at The Vista tonight buuuuut I count my blessings. I still have two eyes.

Thanks to @michaelpomaro.bsky.social WAKE UP DEAD MAN is now my most anticipated new movie of the holiday season.

Favorite first watches of November.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you’ve seen: -Lollapalooza 1991 @ Irvine Meadows: Souixsie and the Banshees, NIN -Board in OC 1995 @ Dominguez Hills: Social D, Sublime, No Doubt, Fluf, Riot Gun -Evan Dando @ McCabe’s Guitar Shop -The Replacements @ Hollywood Palladium -Rolling Stones w/ GnFnR

“Hold My Life,” Tim, The Replacements “Mallo Cup,” Lick, The Lemonheads “Sweet Baby James,” Sweet Baby James, James Taylor “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” Nevermind, Nirvana “I Melt With You,” Modern English, The Valley Girl Soundtrack

I loved listening to @grahamskipper.bsky.social talk about the number 2 pick, but I’m shocked that the greatest filmed Shakespeare production didn’t even make the discards. (Sorry: SPOILERS!)

I know nobody needs my endorsement of the late great Udo Kier, but BACURAU was my number one favorite movie of 2020 and is definitely worth your time. It’s a surreal neo-western that is both a pip of an action thriller and a movie that has something important to say.

“You will be visited by three spirits.”

Gave it another chance but was kinda more excited about what was going on in the lobby. #sadbutitstrue

Do you think he’s the murderer? It’s worse than that. He’s an actor. #lastfourwatched

New podcast! It’s our annual Friday Night Double Features show in which @patrickbromley.bsky.social and @riskeadam.bsky.social talk about two double bills from their hit (??) monthly column: www.fthismovie.net/2025/11/ftm-...

Of course one loves listening to the @purecinemapod.bsky.social boys talk about Kubrick. But it’s the pairings where the gold is truly found. Where has Lubitsch’s TO BE OR NOT TO BE (1942) been all my life? And when will it double with Inglorious Basterds at the @newbeverly.bsky.social ?#thanksPCPod

This may be the coziest trailer for the coziest month of movies at the @newbeverly.bsky.social. My wife and I have never seen While You Were Sleeping in a theater together and we could perform every part of shadow cast for it. But we’d probably fight over who go to do Joe Jr., so we will refrain.

I just saw THE MINOR KEY a new horror short by @lucaswiththelidon.bsky.social debut at the LA International Film Festival at The Million Dollar Theater and holy crap do movies of all lengths play so much better on a HUGE screen. Way to go Lucas!!! #theminorkey

Whose baby? … … … #lastfourwatched

I’m super excited that @thesoniashow.bsky.social is joining @riskeadam.bsky.social for a new @fthismovie.bsky.social regular column and that they’re talking about my most anticipated movie of the holiday season: @edgarwright.bsky.social ‘s THE RUNNING MAN!!!

Mystery couple at the @newbeverly.bsky.social for Bill Forsyth night.

Repost with an iconic fictional band

I hope that there is never a Hirokazu Kore-eda @screendrafts.bsky.social draft because it is probably against the rules to draft seven different movies in the number one spot.

Why is the world constructed so loosely?

CJ deserved better.

Here’s a red letter date in the history of my marriage, November 5th, 2025. For our anniversary my wife surprised me by taking me to the Twin Pines Mall (the Puente Hills Mall) to see BACK TO THE FUTURE! Neither of us have seen it in a theater in 40 years & it plays so much better on a big screen!!!

New @letterboxd.social favs for Wrightvember

Seriously, name me another movie that autumns harder than THE VILLAGE autumns. #idareyouidoubledareyoumother…

Go in as blind as possible to Bugonia. You will not be disappointed. #FavFirstsForScaryMovieMonth

Funny, we all dressed up as movie characters. #whodaguessed

I don’t wanna do your dirty work… no more.

A classic ending for Reserved Seating. Thank you @riskeadam.bsky.social and TV’s Rob DiCristino for tons of great movie recs and movie talk, and even more laughs. Thursday mornings just won’t be the same. (And when you do a 10-years reunion ep, I hope it will be a Catch Me If You Can Title Match.)

Been driving around a lot lately with my teen and listing to her Spotify Halloween mix: and nothing on it feels one tenth as Halloween as Ian Hunter’s “Good Man in a Bad Time.”

This is why I’ve cried at the end of this movie, the last 3 times I’ve seen it. Family isn’t about blood. It’s the bonds that are forged through shared experiences. Loved OPPOSABLE THUMBS! Looking forward to the next book, whatever it will be.

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.

My favorite Drew Struzan poster is ADEVENTURES IN BABYSITTING. After paying for the “poster,” Disney also paid for the original artwork for their archives, then 19 years later was purging their archives and were going to trash the original. But the guy in charge knew Struzan and gave it back to him.
