Kenji Tanigaki’s 'The Furious' adds at least three sick action sequences to the "sickest action sequences" canon.

our top fx teams are working hard on getting those four color comics down to just one

Last night, I watched this movie for the first of approximately 157 times.

HV people: I can't go to this on Saturday, but you have to!

The comment section gets it

'Fifa shanked Egypt so they couldn't dedicate their win to Palestine' is some real 2013 posting and I think we should keep it up

Trump would totally do this

Nothing quite so hateable as a smug englishman

Tlaloc…time to do your thing

England is fielding some real ’attended prep school in the womb‘ faces

The instinct to assert what is good about this nation's history against all that is evil and ugly in its present is a good one, but doing so at the expense of the actual history of this country and its founding is the equivalent of a giving yourself a lobotomy. No need to be stupid together.

"You shall love me and despair" is pretty much the Swifty creed

Is that Don Delillo

Given all the Paranormal Activity comps it will be funny when Obsession also goes the franchise route. One Wish Willow in the 80s. One Wish Willow inside Wii Fit. Latino One Wish Willow. The possibilities are endless

One vote away from voiding the inalienable rights of millions upon millions of current and future Americans. Idiocy and obscenity all the way down

Trans fam: your lives are precious no matter what the fuck these people say translifeline.org/hotline/

Clarence Thomas's concurring opinion in the trans sports ban case in West Virginia contains some of the ugliest transphobic stuff I have ever seen in a legal opinion. Straight-up gleeful. Vile man. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

I somehow drew a bigger crowd to my last literary reading

Incredible moment in the new Blank Check where David Sims says "I'm going to need a list of historical robots"

The oligarch Marc Andreessen now sits on the Defense Policy Board, per the Pentagon in an email to reporters. So does the "Flight 93 Election" fash polemicist Michael Anton; and the Arizona losing candidate Blake Masters, a protege of the oligarch Peter Thiel.

Blue Heron, the best film of 2026, will be on Criterion Channel July 21

scenes without mommy’s face in them are unnecessary in movies. it does nothing to advance the story of where did mommy go
