With the year coming to a close, I got to write up the 10 best superhero movie entries of 2025 for @movieweb.bsky.social. movieweb.com/best-superhe...

It is surreal to think The Force Awakens came out ten years ago. It is strange to think how much has changed around Star Wars since it came out. But you know what? The movie still rules. Loved it then, still love it today, will hopefully love it in another ten years. movieweb.com/star-wars-th...

As someone who played so many hours of Episode 1 Racer, I will buy this on day one.

Disney's AI deal was inevitable, but it's still depressing as hell.

This news is so awful I wanted to just go back to bed and not think about today. Truly loving in the worst timeline right now.

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss my grandma. But this wouldn’t be her. It’s an algorithmic approximation of a person. It’s not really them so therefore it isn’t my grandma. This is downright offensive to think they can replace our loved ones and an absolute ghoulish headline.

Guess I found what’s going on Christmas morning.

I still can’t believe it.

Just a bleak day for the film industry. Don’t think I’ve ever been this depressed about the future of a medium I love so much.

the new CBS/Paramount is clearly dominated by dim, right wing dudebros, who want to make lowest common denominator bait for other, dim, white, right wing dudebros

Okay, rude. I can’t believe KPop Demon Hunters and Hazbin Hotel didn’t shave this number down…unless this is the aged down number?!

Finally finished my Thanksgiving left overs. 10 turkey sandwiches in 5 days. Till next year.

Of course, the Brainiac shortlist is revealed two days after I wrote this list. Still, check it out and let me know what you think of these picks and who you would want to see as Superman's most famous foe who has yet to grace the big screen. movieweb.com/superman-man...

I really wanted to like Ella McCay. I tried to meet it on every level, but the entire runtime I was left feeling baffled. It doesn’t work as a comedy or drama, and the entire film is a waste of very talented individuals. I was hoping for a James L. Brooks comeback but sadly a real whiff.

#AvatarFireandAsh is the Return of the Jedi of the Avatar series. Even if it falls slightly below it’s predecessors, it is still REALLY good with some incredibly powerful and emotionally resonate beats that got tears out of me. Awe inspiring visuals and filmmaking. I just love these movies so much.

I decided to say something nice about The Rise of Skywalker, and a particular Star Wars quote that has been on my mind a lot lately.

Excellent piece about 2018's The Predator by @britthates.bsky.social Think this movie still stands as one of the biggest disappointments I've had this past decade. I'm so glad The Predator franchise is back on track.

Alright I fucking wrote about this. It was apparently necessary to vent my rage about this this afternoon, because that took me two hours to get it all out and onto the page.

I lost count of how many times I fist bumped the air during #PredatorBadlands. To borrow a phrase from Blank Check “it owns bones!” This was the Predator movie I think I’ve been waiting for since I discovered the franchise at 10 years old. Cannot recommend enough.

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Clearly getting ready for Halloween

“I’m the worlds most dangerous Predator” My Edward Cullen/Predator mashup is my most absurd costume. Happy Halloween everyone!

For TIME I went long on the bumbling white men at the heart of ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, EDDINGTON, and THE MASTERMIND.

studio execs & major outlets claim AI is "inevitable" and poised to take over Hollywood. the reality is much different. i spoke with filmmakers, producers, and editors about how AI is actually showing up in productions – and what it still can't do:

Drew Struzan made some of the greatest movie posters of all time, ones that were more than promotional material but breathtaking works of art. These two hung on my wall all four years of high school, so they will always hold a special place in my heart. R.I.P. Drew Struzan.

Terribly sad news about one of the greats. Diane Keaton has died at 79. people.com/diane-keaton...

Oh my god a Jar Jar and Kelleran Beq team-up sounds so fun!

Already adding Zatanna to my pull list. Seriously between Zatanna Bring Down the House and the All-In Mini-Series, love how much DC is pushing Zatanna forward.

Talk about an interesting week. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday

I liked the Peacemaker Season 2 finale. Maybe one too many needle drops, but I think it worked both as a finale in its own right while setting up some exciting new stories. But hey, what do I know?

It has to be a three way tie between Jaws, Jurassic Park, and Halloween.

Revenge of the Sith and The Simpsons Movie were the first films I remember being truly excited about. 2 weeks before The Simpsons Movie came out I actually had a nightmare that it was delayed by a year. So this news has given me a rush similar to when Disney announced new Star Wars movies in 2012.

*in the tune of Walk the Moon’s One Foot* Ooh-ooh-ooh (hey), One Battle After Another!

Hell yeah! Go Patrick!

Let’s go boi!!!!

My ranking of all the movies I saw this summer. Honestly pretty solid summer movie season, and I closed it off by doing a double feature of Fantastic 4/Superman.

For reasons:

They called me into the doctors office right as Avatar came on in the waiting room and I so badly wanted to say “wait let me watch the first five minutes.”

I dug deep for some box office analysis for @movie-web.bsky.social. Is the superhero genre actually reaching a low point, because on average, the four superhero films of 2025 still rank higher at the box office than the 2011 entries. movieweb.com/2025-superhe...

#TheLongWalk is so good, a brutal satire filled with rich, well-defined characters brought to life by wonderful actors. Francis Lawrence has always been the real deal, but this might be his best movie yet. You will want to see this on a big screen with a large audience.

I was at a wedding over the weekend and it is bleak at just how normalized people are getting with AI. Not only did someone show off AI art but a separate married couple told me they used ChatGPT to write their vows.

Last week I found myself awake at night asking one question: why did Alien: Earth pick Ice Age: Continental Drift? I got really into the weeds for @movie-web.bsky.social why I thought it was (I later found out Noah Hawley just did it because his kids love Ice Age). movieweb.com/alien-earth-...

In honor of Peacemaker Season 2 debuting tonight and Superman's digital release, I broke down all the characters seen in the Hall of Justice mural for @movie-web.bsky.social movieweb.com/superman-dc-...

A lot more Ice Age in Alien: Earth than I was expecting. Even funnier it’s not the first film, but the fourth one.

As someone who enjoys watching Screen Crushes videos this was a pleasant surprise to see one of my headlines used (wish it aged better). But still, it’s a good feeling so thanks to @coltonogburn.bsky.social and the rest of the team at Screen Crush for the brief shoutout.

Going to get a lot of use out of this.

Hulu can you release more episodes of King of The Hill please? 10 episodes wasn’t enough. How about…10 more seasons? Yeah that sounds good.

This might be the most backhanded compliment I can give, but after three days of the worst stomach flu and eating nothing but oatmeal, apple sauce and yogurt, Subway’s bland sandwiches are actually a nice transition to real food.
