No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

Anne Hathaway wants us to watch this underrated kaiju movie from 2017, and who are we to deny her?

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

SEND HELP. Fuck. Yes. Shannon & Swift's script is economical and brilliant. Some of their best work. Raimi is back at the top of his game with his best film since SPIDER-MAN 2. And Rachel is having the time of her life and fucking crushing it. Put her in everything! So glad to see this big & loud.

I wish A24 films had a Marvel Studios Fanfare-style opening with all their famous characters flashing through the logo. Marty Supreme, Black Phillip, the Spring Breakers, hot dog fingers, humanoid lamb, Ava from Ex Machina, Toni Collette sawing her head off...

I need everyone to watch Wonder Man, legit one of the most beautiful stories of friendship I've seen in a long time.

TRAIN DREAMS floored me. A truly beautiful film. Even though it’s nominated for Best Picture, it deserves way more attention. (Now streaming on NetFlix)
