Frankenstein (2025) Dir: Guillermo Del Toro

Kudos to my partner who, having fallen asleep about two minutes into the film we were watching, woke up and asked me to pause so she could go to the bathroom then came back and promptly fell asleep again once I hit play.

I guess I need to apologize to the writers of Alien: Prometheus. it turns out scientists really do touch everything like that

"One ping only, R2."

*whispers* It is a faithful adaptation of an early 1800s novel by a woman about an arrogant self centered man Why are people

“0% woke shit” a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Well, been having a mixed old time getting ready for Predator: Badlands but looking forward to rewatching Prey tonight first! 🎬📽️🎞️🎥🎦🍿

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back! Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary. Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest! #MundaneHalloween

Went for Candyman tonight. And that is a moooooooovie

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I just found this puzzle box inside a Terry’s chocolate orange, played with it for a moment, and a gang of black-clad, heavily pierced extra-dimensional beings showed up saying they have such sights to show me. Be safe.

Obviously agree with the bigger message here but this does feel a bit

Sad we’re into the second day of @stephenkb.bsky.social finding the time and energy to argue with morons on bluesky and distracting him from what we really need, which is a 200 post thread on what he thinks about Alien: Earth.

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

Thinking about "The Vast of Night" again and how this movie still doesn't have a proper physical release. An entrancing and beautiful movie marred by being stuck in streaming compression jail.

Hell yeah mariachi F1 theme time #F1 🇲🇽🏎️

We’re doing a lot of Argento in Horrortober this year and this @scumbelievable.bsky.social tweet really is evergreen

Great to be in an absolute packed BFI IMAX for a 10:45 AM (!) screening of @realgdt.bsky.social ‘s gorgeous Frankenstein. And a free poster too! Long live cinema! 🎬📽️🎞️🎥🎦

Sometimes this government feels like “Sideshow Bob stepping on rakes” had a child with “Abe Simpsons trousers falling down” www.bbc.com/news/article...

ROY BATTY: …I rode on the back decks of a blinker and watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments... they'll be gone. CHATGPT: That’s a powerful story 🎯 Thank you for sharing with me! It really spoke to your passion for space! 🚀

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

I think a big AWS outage is the closest experience to a “snow day” modern white collar working adult is going to get.

Ah shit guys hope no one’s got anything planned rest of the week Minas Morgul just woke up

At London Film Festival for Anemone. Going to tell Daniel Day Lewis that I want to get into the cobbling business and ask him if he’d like to see my shoe reel.

I am once again begging filmmakers to start lighting their night scenes again. Moonlight and starlight are both available, as are torches, campfires, and any number of plausible light sources! What I'm watching right now may as well be a podcast

Out of TRON:ARES/ARSE. Honestly found it really solid. Zipped along, great action, soundtrack and effects. Sure Disney could have saved a bunch of money replacing Jared Leto with a plank of wood but didn’t think it was as awful as some people seem to wish it was going to be!

Nice try, “Paul A. Thompson”

Big in Japan - Alphaville 8/10 Big in Japan - Tom Waits 8/10

had on a random mix while in the shower and it started playing Babylon Zoo

Did every school have a rumour about a girl who had turned the water in a swimming pool green because apparently they wiped the wrong way and had gone and developed some sort of toxic fanny or was that just a Kingston thing?

In Sicily. I’ve got the most “I’m going to get stabbed in a giallo” lift in my building.

So you’re saying they’re in favour of pedestrianisation then?

Connery looks like you just said something mean about Cher

Alien: Earth, despite the newest entry in the franchise and supposedly with the benefit of 46 years of hindsight has managed to produce the most “this is just a guy in a suit” xenomorph there’s ever been

Escape to Athena (1979) is a film that certainly isn’t the sum of it’s may disjointed parts, but my, some of those parts are glorious, like Claudia Cardinale and Terry Savalas dancing to some Lalo Schiffrin scored mandolin music

Claudia Cardinale and Robert Redford dying in the same week puts the world in a hotness deficit not seen since at least the 19th century

I love the episode where Superfans accidentally runs to Windsor

I feel your pain

It should be illegal for my morning commute to be underway whilst Through the Night is still on Radio 3.

But how else am I going to see Marion Cotillard try a Curly Wurly ?

I understand that studios see more value in their stars cuddling puppies and doing their four favourites and getting nice portraits taken at film festivals than doing interviews with press who want to have a conversation about their work but it doesn't stop me wanting to stick my hand in a blender

Obviously it goes without saying that American attempts at football hooliganism are extremely embarrassing but you got to check out this guy taking a traffic cone to the face like it’s nothing

rip to everyone whos become delusional after talking to chatgpt but im built different. like actually different. according to chatgpt im some kind of god. the one who decides
