I got paid a decent amount of money to make temp titles for a pitch version of an ad that was to feature a certain rock legend, only for their partner to shut the whole thing down. No one that's actually FINISHED their movie has paid me as much to work on theirs.

AMC cut the trailer/bumper time down to 22-23 minutes, it seems. Or I'm just lucky? (Mario and Drama were the back to back examples)

"the franchise operates in a galaxy of its own in terms of box office potential, capitalizing on its beloved IP and benefitting from the success of the 2023 film that generated massive goodwill thus adding box office momentum to its opening weekend potential." Is Paul Dergarabedian a real human?

Seated for THE DRAMA

Open the Fuckin' Strait!

Imdb goof (character error) for THE FOG: The Tom Atkins character takes a bottle of booze away from Hal Holbrook, but doesn't take a swig for himself before tossing it aside.

Happy Easter Eve, everyone. Don't forget to leave three nails and a glass of milk for Jesus.

Seeing THE PAPER today. I was 14 the first/only time I saw it. Probably going to hit different as an adult in a world where journalistic integrity is seen as a weakness. Also a world where no one cares about newspapers.

I know Lyft asks you trust getting in a car with a random stranger, but to calm your nerves, don't worry! Their car is over two years out of registration.

Amelia is correct.

A. I hate this goddamn scene (And yet) B. Got a "you should mention" comment about it when I DID mention it

Remember when I said I just passed in the most niche thing I've written in years? This is it. Thank you @horrorgirlprobs.bsky.social for saying "yes" to my whims (again)! www.fangoria.com/total-eclips...

Sad to see Kyle Rankin slumming with these assholes. Infestation was a fun flick and I enjoyed his season of Project Greenlight. Oh well.

Spell a film you love with the first letters of other films you love. Hausu Armageddon Lethal Weapon Let The Right One In Of Unknown Origin Walk Hard Evil Dead End of Days National Lampoons Vacation

OK the "information desk" gag made me laugh. And I liked that Fox and Mario just got along instantly. Plus Kamek sounding like Peter Lorre continues to delight me. Otherwise that was a snooze.

AMC is running a SHRINKING spot that's actually an HR Block ad but Harrison Ford noticeably doesn't appear in it so I am guessing he told them to fuck off.

How many Tylenol will I need before / after Super Mario 2? Please note I'm also seeing it in 3D.

Got rear ended on Monday and they already accepted liability without me having to do much of anything. All I lose is the time dealing with taking it in to be fixed. Which is still too much, but whatever.

OK but think of the possibilities for the long awaited sequel to The Rock

So I tHink A WoNdErful guEst will be joining us for THE BLOB on April 16th! Let's pack the joint! www.lookcinemas.com/glendale/mov...

Shazam/Berenstain thing happening... someone's doing Weezer at karaoke and the lyric says "Pull the strand" - isn't it "pull this thread?"

I know we all have to hate Andy Weir now but I'm reading PHM and it's quite enjoyable being inside Grace's head when he's trying to figure out who he is. "I think in miles so I must be American. Or from Liberia." Heh.

When I had my unfortunate (but thankfully brief) experience with a narcissist, I believed their stories about how they were mistreated by so many people, only to see myself ousted and accused of similar transgressions. I'd like to think if this person was the President, I'd know better beforehand.

So do the sycophants who put those Biden stickers up have anything to say now or...

Beyond Fest faithful! If anyone sees tix for Popstar being resold please think of Michael. Good dude and he can be a hero to his daughter.

I like it when Varrati does things!!!

Truly one of the most annoying purple categories ever today for Connections.

watching new super mario film. luigi and princess peach are in a motel room for most of it so far, he has these bugs under his skin from experiments the army did on him when he was over in iraq. they just took their clothes off. no yoshi yet, keeping my eyes peeled

Silver Surfer NES though at least it was a rental. As far as owning... has to be Indiana Jones for Atari, and please note I also had ET.

Happy Autism Awareness Month! Life has gotten surprisingly easier now that I know for sure my communication issues and "quirks" are literally in my brain wiring and not something to fix or be ashamed of.

Literally what I go to therapy for, fuck.

"Some users of Coflaxia report that their heads just fell off and rolled away. Other side effects include diarrhea, migraines, and muscle cramps. Ask your doctor if Coflaxia is right for you."

Kristi Noem's husband has been exposed as being the only interesting one of the bunch.

It sucked in 2000 when we were new to it and it sucks more now because it's become impossible to see the original on the big screen. Always this weaker version. (I do like the extended stair scene and ending)

You would think that after 27 years Lionsgate would finally accept that the success of Blair Witch Project was 90% generated by curiosity, not genuine appeal or admiration, and that there is a reason literally everything since (including books and video games) hasn't connected.

Can't believe we are already nearing the 25th anniversary of one of the darkest days in American history.

Just under 20,000 steps today. Bless you, Legoland. *tries not to think about how some of those steps were to get a churro*

You guys may not believe this... but THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION is on TNT rn.

It's so disrespectful when folks wear Jurassic Park shirts to theme parks. People died!

Has anyone ever played that Heads Up game on their phone outside of waiting in overlong theme park lines?

We are going to Legoland for the 2nd time so took a repeat pic of the 1st time in 2018.

"People DO love you, Precious, Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire."

Finally deciding it. FALLEN KINGDOM is the best Jurassic sequel (it's still not great, just marginally better than the other four middling ones).

If you like ai that's fine. Don't be a fucking asshole. Just regurgitate art the way you want to make up for the fact that you lack the skill to make your own for real and shut up about it.

Had a terrifying dream I was hanging over the side of a very tall building that was overlooking a river, trying to fix a Lego model that was perched up there. Absolute nightmare. Woke up sweating. Can you imagine if I dropped a piece? It'd go right into the water!

Insane reveal today: one of my favorite things about a friend is something they actually hate about themselves. (Their voice, for the record.) So now I'm curious if any of my friends are quite fond of like, my restless leg syndrome or misaligned jaw.

Watched this with someone who didn't understand the jacket joke. I was embarrassed for them.

OK I admit I was getting impatient waiting for Rocky to show up but man, all forgiven once he did. What a great movie. (Will liked Rocky and nothing else but I'm still proud of him watching a 2.5 hr grown up movie without getting fidgety!) #ProjectHailMary

I used to get annoyed when people would ask questions on here or Twitter or whatever instead of just Googling it but... getting a correct answer out of Google anymore is a Herculean task. Related: is the standard 20 to 25% tip the same for masseuses? Getting my first one ever tomorrow!
