Today we finally published a big list I'd been working on for months; The 100 Most Powerful Directors in Hollywood (as determined by me, with help from a handful of producers, publicists, agents and executives). www.vulture.com/article/100-...

"No other ranking got as much pushback from Hollywood insiders as putting Gerwig in the top five," hmm, I wonder why

I've got a GREAT LIST! And you've got your head ... ALL THE WAY UP IT! www.vulture.com/article/100-...

It is breaking my brain that live footage can now be color graded like this. I can't tell what's real and what's a bit!

jfc england really is the sixers of the world cup

Everyone remembers A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE for the mayhem. But its real subject is Edie — the wife who has to decide whether she can keep loving the man whose violence keeps her safe.

"No weapon formed against me shall prosper" --the baby, ripping apart the napkins we are trying to use to clean her face

Posting this on Bluesky is like walking into a Philly sports bar and talking about how you've always liked Dak Prescott.

The Swiss manager looks like Javier Bardem playing Mads Mikkelsen.

Jude Bellingham got out of England just in time before he could be infected by loser energy. In the future we need to send all teenage phenoms to the Bundesliga ASAP

I'm the one who jinxed it by looking up prices for retro England jerseys

There's something poetic about the three World Cup host countries all going out in the same round: Canada humbly, Mexico heroically, and the US after a weeklong media controversy that subsumes the game itself.

When I see the opening weekend box-office for The Pope's Exorcist

Me at the beginning of that match | Me now

The most interesting thing about this to me is that the musical Hamilton has negatively polarized conservatives into a favorable opinion of Aaron Burr.

I can't explain it, but there's something so Philadelphian about Mbappe. He looks like his last name should be Detweiler.

love to my trans friends. fuck SCOTUS.

I haven't seen Protestant-on-Protestant violence like this since the Thirty Years' War. 🇳🇱🇸🇪

Actual Germans reading FreddyLA7's Tweets:

All the Gen z swiss voted No Cap

In a sense, the Sixers had an equally successful season as the San Antonio Spurs.

The Tragically Kick

I have never watched a second of this show and devoured this essay nonetheless

There was much discourse on X last week regarding the false, persistent idea that hipsters listened to stomp-clap bands like the Lumineers and Mumford & Sons, which spiraled into a discussion about what hipsters even were. It was all very relevant to my book, so I tried to provide some context...

I have had a random piece of orchestral fanfare stuck in my head for weeks. Something grand and imposing, but also with an air of steadfast determination. Today I finally tracked it down. It is from the opening credits of the 1968 Godzilla movie Destroy All Monsters: youtu.be/6OcgOdDpzl8?...

god damn, i was just reminiscing with friends about Once More with Feeling a couple hours ago. sad news. a great actor and wonderful TV presence.

"Kimmel’s father remembers opening a yellow legal pad in the middle of a sensitive meeting and discovering a perfectly drawn penis with a note from Jimmy reading 'Dad, I hope you enjoy this.'" hope you enjoy this @jimmykimmel.com profile by @kvanaren.bsky.social www.vulture.com/article/jimm...

Cannes Most Anticipated: 1. Fatherland 2. Minotaur 3. Fjord 4. The Black Ball 5. Camp Miasma

Count how many times you say "GIRL." while reading this.

Pedophilia is a plank of the Republican Party, a very real policy goal that they work towards on a consistent basis, from the President to the primary electorate. The Republican Party's countless exposed sexual predators simply represent the party's view, which is that children should be molested.

Amazing to see Sebastian Stan in @resnikoff.bsky.social drag here.

HUGE NEWS: ICE’s courthouse arrests have been STAYED by a New York district judge. That means that ICE will have to stop arresting our immigrant neighbors on the spot when they show up to court at places like 26 Federal Plaza, 290 Broadway, and 201 Varick. (1/2)

This is the early favorite for my most anticipated film of the year

Your drink is waiting for you

Gonna throw "The Dog Days Are Over" by Florence + The Machine into the ring: -Millennial artist -bridges the sound of the Aughts (the ukulele) and 2010s (the stomps and claps) -has an optimistic shoutyness redolent of the best Millennial music -was covered on Glee

This is a great playlist that my baby absolutely hated. Though I can't tell if that was because she could tell I was trying to blatantly manufacture an emotional moment, or if she was simply overstimulated by all the bleeps and bloops.

One weird wrinkle of this though is embedding festival juries into the Oscar system without their consent. If you're deciding between two films for the Palme, do you now have to give the edge to the one that seems less likely to become the official selection?

The Oscars fixed the Best International Film category! Or at least, created a workaround that should leave most people happy.

The baby whenever a strawberry is thrown on the floor:

Two things I recently learned about Frank Perry, and I'm not sure which one's weirder: -He went on to direct Mommie Dearest. -He is Katy Perry's uncle.

Both of us caught COVID so we are going Weapons Mode this week: just sitting around grey and lifeless as the baby wonders what happened to her parents. (We got it from you, kid!)

"Was Obama-era identity politics leftism or liberalism?" - the greatest thread in the history of forums, locked by a moderator after 2,013 pages of heated debate.

Others have said this, but when It finally Happens, one thing I'm looking forward to is not talking about the same guy all day, every day. It's been 11 years!

He is a left back West Ham acquired from Rennes in the January transfer window

They can't keep getting away with this
