Okay I’m gonna be honest, people are hating on the new Running Man, and it’s weak by Wright standards, and uneven as all hell. But I kinda thought it was okay. At least as a popcorn action comedy with obvious as hell commentary. Wasn’t ever bored.

I just found out Breaking Bad was shot on 35mm film print and that pisses me off because it means some incredibly high quality 4K scans in a box set COULD happen…but currently there are no plans, and most complete blu rays available for sale are repackages and bootlegs.

I’m glad that after watching 28 Years Later and revisiting the original 28 Days Later because of it, we’ve all come to our senses on Danny Boyle. Film Twitter has given the man his flowers.

Now it’s time for the next step: Sunshine reappraisal.

Come on…you know I’m right.

Mia Mulder — What Does It Mean To
I wanted to examine identity, how we use it, why we have it, why it matters and in the process I lost my mind.

I think about the final line from Se7en a lot on social media because you’ll see beautiful, wonderful solidarity and hope that reminds you why you live…and the worst most awful truly cruel behavior you’ve ever seen. And all you can think is…

The statement from Kaine lays bare exactly the point I keep hammering on the campaign trail:

Democrats are willing to let things get worse now in the hope that it leads to electoral wins 1, 3, or 5 years from now.

It's disgraceful.

But that's exactly what he's admitting to in this statement.

Finally watching Poor Things and now that I’m seeing what people found controversial about it, I realize that most of the discourse I heard was from immature children because there’s no way you all don’t get the metaphor here, right?

Matthew Stafford is the MVP so far, right? 21 TDs only 2 INTs, sixth place in Passer Rating, tenth place QBR, second highest yards per game, sixth place in total yards, even low in sacks.

Really the only competition is Mahomes but with less TDs, more INTs, worse record.

“Oh so you think you’re better than us because you watch foreign movies?”

Kinda yea.

What I’m discovering today is that people actually hate if a video essay or documentary doesn’t tell them exactly how to feel and instead just has a conversation. To them criticizing anything is only useful to change or alter it, with no value in the conversation itself.

Sometimes I get annoyed about a filmmaker making a 2 hour movie “just for the vibes” and then I realize that it’s just because I watch movies a certain way. Because this YouTube video is just “for the vibes” and I love it, but probably bc I’m not watching it like a narrative film.

Whenever I watch a Lynne Ramsay movie and it doesn’t move me much I feel like I’ve failed at female solidarity. Like I remember watching We Need to Talk About Kevin, finding it mixed and it’s like I went “wait…no I’m supposed to like this! I have to like this!”

Watched Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Syndromes and a Century for the first time…think I’m going to need at least one more watch to piece together my thoughts.

It’s an enigma I’m not sure I got but felt like this tapestry of moments in life, some rural, some urban, all real.

I'm gonna be weird and queer and artsy and that's gonna be true under every reality because I'm not changing for anyone. As I said before, you need to kill the conformist in your head, and I mean it, if you don't like the way things are going, do something to piss it the fuck off.

I hate talking about electoral politics because it constantly feels like an emperor's new clothes situation. Because people talk like all you have to do is vote and that'll change everything, and you should vote, but recognize that each vote does not count the same.
