Wtf is going on in the Sixers locker room at halftime?

It’s the Rocky theme that does it for me. It would still be funny, but the comedy effect is multiplicative with the music.

Today’s low effort movie review: I watched La Haine. It landed well.

3 weeks into a proper workout routine and it’s pretty great. I ache quite a bit, but it’s a “I feel alive” kind of aching. I should’ve done this a long time ago.

New Episode Alert! We invite new guest to the show, Deke, to the seedy side of cinema, rife with obscene phone calls, leering eyes, and Sal Mineo's naked torso, in Joseph Cates' underseen psychosexual thriller, Who Killed Teddy Bear. Available wherever you get your podcasts! #FilmSky #HorrorSky📽️

Mamdami is going to impose Shimmy Shimmy Law. Everyone will have to give him the mic, so he can take it away.

Used DVD Haul

Now is a great time to remind people of Betteridge’s Law of Headlines, “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word ‘no.’” Equally as true here as with any other headline. Also, F the NYT.

With the release of ANOTHER episode of Short Ends tomorrow, let's celebrate short films for the rest of the week! Berta is a revenge-thriller written and directed by Lucía Forner Segarra which balances tension and moments of dark humor with an eye on social justice. #FilmSky #ShortFilms #Podcast📽️

New Short Ends Alert! Joe and @jodywebster.com from @dadsfromthecrypt.bsky.social dive into a bewilderingly good silent short from 1943, Meshes of the Afternoon, a film full of sunlit tension, doppelgangers, and a clocked killer. Available wherever you get your podcasts! #FilmSky #ShortFilms 🎥

At least, that’s how I remember it anyways…

“The [AI] Genie is out of the bottle, and you won’t be able to put it back.” We don’t want to put it back. We want to stomp the Genie and kill it dead and hang it’s corpse from our human-designed architecture as a warning to other Genies not to come around no more.

Very few lyrics capture how it feels to be alive in America in 2025 as well as this 1979 song written by a Brit about the Cold War. So many lines hit, but for me, right now, being on social media this very moment, it’s “And the wrong words make you listen in this criminal world” that comes to mind.

Special Delivery!

Things are going exactly as planned.

Day 17 of needlessly comparing every film to Southland Tales

Without any irony or insincerity, this is more accurate reporting than any national news org has produced since Trump took office. What’s that Frank Mankiewicz quote about F&L on the Campaign Trail 72? “The least factual, most accurate account of the election.” Yeah that.

He’s the best.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Claude AI’s logo is unironically Kurt Vonnegut’s butthole drawing

When you’re over-committed with personal and work responsibilities, but all you want to do is make some artwork/stingers, fux around with modular synths, and bullshit about ridiculous movies with friends on your podcast

So they’re saying human-made art is highly valuable. Sounds like the cost of doing business, mfers.

@merzkyshoom.bsky.social is gone for one episode of @filmsatfirstsight.bsky.social and I immediately veer the show in a ridiculous direction 😅

Scientists are saying the future is going to be far more futuristic than Richard Kelly had originally predicted.

Ok. THIS is where Bowie began to really hone the sound he was attempting on his prior 90s albums. A solid work. “Hallo Spaceboy” in particular sounds like it was produced by Al Jourgensen

Subscribe to The Onion. I want to have more subscribers than The Free Press as soon as possible. This is achievable. In exchange, when we sell the company to a drone and cobalt magnate so I can dive in a pool of gold coins Scrooge McDuck-style, you will be spared my wrath and retribution.

We are going to win.

#nw V/H/S Halloween

Join us for a very special episode as we recap our experience at the 3rd Annual Phoenixville Film Festival! It was a jam-packed weekend that included American Comic, Drink and Be Merry, RARE and a murderers row of short films. Available wherever you get your podcasts! #FilmSky #FilmFest #ComedySky

Buddha of Suburbia has some flashes of experimental brilliance as he blends jazz and hip-hop along with some of his signature lyrical style mixing narrative storytelling, poetry, strange harmony and sporadic rhythmic meter. Perhaps the most consistent element of his 80s and 90s work is the lyrics.

David Bowie owned the 1970s. 12 albums from The Man Who Sold the World to Scary Monsters. And all of them are good to classic albums. unbelievable output. The 80s and 90s are much less inspired, seemingly attempting to stay relevant while sounding like a caricature of himself and other pop tunes.

If you’d like to hear me insincerely accept, completely disregard, or redirect every valid criticism of Southland Tales as a problem with the viewer’s expectations, you’re gonna love our next episode of @filmsatfirstsight.bsky.social releasing Tuesday 😚

I've thought a lot about the scene in A Clockwork Orange where Alex finds out that the droogs he used to rampage with are now policemen

Everything I have learned about Tilly Norwood has been against my will

Oh no he’s escaping!

I hope I die quick enough that I don’t have time to think “I shouldn’t have quit smoking.” Cause that’ll really upset me.

Tobi-san Appreciation Post

Post a fictional comedian who definitely would accept an invitation to the Riyadh Comedy Festival

Decided to do a full Bowie retrospective. All Bowie, all the time, all 26 studio albums. I’m at PinUps and I honestly can’t believe how many songs I hadn’t heard from his late60s/early 70s era. I basically only knew Aladdin Sane and the Man Who Sold the World front-to-back.

When you show up to work on a Monday but your ulterior motive is @deafcrocodile.bsky.social's latest shipment just arrived at the office 😅 #PhysicalMedia #FilmSky 🎥

this most "this could have been an email" thing i've ever heard

I’m still looking for the right frame for my “Passion of the Coop” print so it still isn’t hanging yet, but I absolutely adore it and all of Brianna’s work. Check it out:

@fulciseyefetish.bsky.social has been hyping me up for this one. Excited to watch it after work and talk about it right after.
