It's cute that my dayjob thinks that I give a shit about daily sales numbers and labor cost averages. When is my next check hitting? This Friday? Cool. Were my time-off requests for next month approved? They were? Cool. I really don't care about anything else. It's a job, not a lifestyle.

The unwritten caveat here of course being that they weren't paying taxes anyway, so net loss to the state is $0 and arguably a net positive societal gain

HAPPY ALIEN DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE :D #LV426 #AlienDay

You ever think about how the Mafia boss in The Rocketeer has higher ethical standards than everyone who attended the WHCD

I can't believe I need to say this, but...well.

Because that worked out so well with Box Office Mojo, Rotten Tomatoes, and IMDB.

I'd get one, but I'd be afraid it would run away from my cats. (I still say the alien was terrified of Jonesy. It clearly put him in that locker, then spent the rest of the movie hiding in the air ducts to avoid him when he was let out. Jonesy must have traumatized it while it was a chestburster.)

coolest shit on earth man you cannot beat Nemesis

This, but also their PREDATOR toys as well.

"It's the biggest celebration for a pedophile since the 2024 election!"

every few months, americans are asked to resume their banquet and pretend a shooting didn't just happen

Happy ALIEN Day! I'm grateful to get a new tease of ISOLATION 2. Now all I need is some concrete ROMULUS 2 news...

SCREAM 4 wrapped filming one month before Instagram debuted, and it absolutely nails a certain kind of online asshole that blossomed in its wake. (Not you, you’re great.) Thinking about it in this week’s Terror Teletype: manage.kmail-lists.com/subscription...

AVATAR is for the children.

I'm fairly certain that the dog that lives in the house two doors down from me is racist.

Yeah, not changing a thing.

Keep hands, arms, and legs inside the vehicle and remain seated at all times during the movie...

A bit bizarre that they're afraid to use the name Noob Saibot.

Toho has been promising this for a decade now. I'll believe it when I see it.

I wasn't really a fan of CREATURE COMMANDOS, but this line will never not be wonderful.

Studios really are trying all sorts of odd titles so that they can still roll with trademarking and branding, aren't they? LEE CRONIN'S THE MUMMY MIAMI VICE '85 What's next? SNICKERS PRESENTS PARANORMAL ACTIVITY (2027)? (Jokes aside, I'm very curious about this one. Hopefully it's a winner.)

Actually getting to read a rundown of the 6 episode scripts/outlines that were written for an unmade sequel series to Tobe Hooper's SALEM'S LOT excites me as much as it depresses me. I wish that sucker had gone into production and we'd ended up with at least a one season of it. What could have been!

"CLAYFACE doesn't look like it fits the DCU at all!" That's a Gunn problem, not a problem with this movie. Why he has decided nearly every DCU project needs to carry the same GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY tone is beyond me. SUPERMAN, PEACEMAKER, CREATURE COMMANDOS, SUPERGIRL.....all very GOTG.

Managed to catch both HOKUM and OVER YOUR DEAD BODY early yesterday thanks to Regal's Monday Mystery Movie series. HOKUM is right in line with ODDITY, so if you dug that one, you should be very happy. BODY is prime violent comedy "date night" territory. Both are very much worth your time.

My three favorite kinds... - Deep-Dish Pepperoni - Thai Chicken (or Thai Shrimp) - Fig Jam & Gorgonzola

I was mixed on MILK & SERIAL, but have been looking forward to OBSESSION. I'm now really curious to see who writes and stars in this.

Hollywood Reporter’s review of Michael says “ If you are unwilling to separate the art from the artist, this will not be a movie for you.” It’s one thing to use that cliche when discussing Jackson’s music; it’s absolutely depraved to use it when talking about a movie about him funded by his estate.

I'll go to bat for some of these. For instance, I'm a fan of THE REPLACEMENT KILLERS, OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN, EQUALIZER 1&3, and MAGNIFICENT SEVEN. SHOOTER and EQUALIZER 2 are decent. But he does miss as often as he hits. INFINITE in particular is godawful.

He's also essentially an audience insert who can be all "space wizards??! That sounds silly, just gimme my walking dog alien and my laser gun OH SHIT, SPACE WIZARDS ARE REAL!?" to give the audience more buy-in. Basically, if STAR WARS released now, people would call Han Solo out for "MCU humor."

It's funny because it's true.

The films from the classic monster cycle of the '90s - such as Coppola's DRACULA, Branagh's FRANKENSTEIN, Nichols' WOLF, Sommers' THE MUMMY - are now as old as the Hammer ones were back in the '90s. Which means if you watched those when they came out.....ya old!

Is the Universal Monsters channel actually back to primarily showing Universal Monsters (and Hammer) films again then? Last time I bothered to check it, it was just showing a bunch of 2000s horror flicks.

I was next-level obsessed with ZOMBIES ATE MY NEIGHBORS as a kid.

Wampler: the gift that keeps on giving.

Well, Mothra is his #1 love. Honestly, Anguirus is probably the side chick.

You don't know much about a tale that is over 2,700 years old? Seriously?

Drop your crime-fighting Catholics.

Seconded. Mads Mikkelsen alone should be enough to entice anyone, let alone the fact that Sigourney Weaver is in it and it feels like a gateway horror movie that Miyazaki would appreciate.

Lots of blood and guts, shoot em ups, one terrible comedy and more at the movies this week:

Call out? Pffft. I scheduled the day off. I'm not kidding.

For all of you evening peeps!

BREAKING: The sequel that has been promised is "on the way" for years is indeed on the way. Seriously, this really isn't news, especially since Miles Teller and Glen Powell get asked about its progress in every interview they give.
