It's not that I'm very smart because I knew this would happen, it's that the Democrats are so dumb that they didn't expect this to happen, or so feckless that they don't care that it happened.

I’m not some fancy business knower but aren’t you supposed to get paid for licensing rather than paying the company using your copyrights?

Tubi is such a crazy streaming service. It’s like if the Criterion Closet was in a gas station

The Cow (1969) Magnificent Iranian film in which a villager falls in love with a cow and then goes insane when it dies. Would make a great double feature with Buster Keaton's Go West (1925) or Robert Bresson's Au hasard Balthazar (1966). Directed and co-written by Dariush Mehrjui - BOTD in 1939

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Some bad news. The great film and culture writer Nathan Rabin was in a serious car accident. He is expected to recover, but he has a rough path ahead. Now is a great time to buy his new book (I just did, looks cool!) - a thorough investigation of movies about movies. bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

no, sorry, saying the warren commission was good-faith ignores the critiques of its own members (russell, boggs & cooper) as well as the fact that the cia director kennedy fired was on it. this is ahistorical, meant to dismiss basic inquiry as conspiracy-mongering

this is gonna be us next year, but it's gonna be Jadakiss bringing out Zohran
