Are you frightened of heights? Are you falling?
I watched Celine Song's THE MATERIALISTS, which I have to say felt 100x closer to a "Cronenberg movie" than something like THE SUBSTANCE.

You do Not have to hand it to her but AI is incapable of producing anything as confidently terrible as Nuzzi's writing. Only a stunted, vapid HUMAN could do that! And that's beautiful, or whatever.

My top 3 can't-miss movie cliches:

1. Phew the monster is finally dead...what was that sound?
2. Go! I'll hold them back as long as I can!
3. Haha we're hassling you and your loved ones to the breaking point! And unless you've got some kind of secret violent past, you just have to take it!
My top 3 can't-miss movie cliches:

1. Old man warns you this place is bad
2. Memorable second-in-command
3. Severe, attractive middle-aged woman is mean and fucked up
My top 3 can't-miss movie cliches:

1. Villain is killed whilst monologuing
2. Crusty, sour older relative gifts super-meaningful heirloom to young protagonist
3. Dog to the rescue!

If you ask me, Zootopia 2 needs to continue the story of Nick and Judy while also expanding the world of Zootopia.

To make this point even clearer, not that it should matter, but it's never just transphobia. There isn't a single transphobe alive who otherwise shares your nice views. I dare you to name a single case where that's true.
An antifascist popular front and transphobia are incompatible. A big tent that includes transphobes isn't a big tent, it's a tent with a hole in the roof.

One of the greatest actors of his, or any, era. Brooding, haunted, Gothic good looks with the intensity and conviction to back them up. He worked the camera like a speed bag. RiP king

Elon Musk wears diapers? Oh really? Then explain this ad showing all his favorite toilets.

They're worse. At least Zack Snyder actually wants to make his awful movies.
It might help your mental health to remind yourself that anybody you see still defending Democrats after shit like this have basically the same brain as the guys who still send emails trying to get Zack Snyder put back in charge of the DC movies. Strange, sad brains not worth your anger.

Movies used to be so good that they'd make Predator 2 and everyone would go "this fucking SUCKS"

Finally completed my years-in-the-making tv show about the androids from the Alien movies. Now to take a big sip of water and check whether the owners of the franchise have bookended my project with blockbuster films in which those androids are portrayed by David Jonsson and Elle Fanning.

Just going by those out of context spoilers, I wonder if the people making that Welcome to Derry show have been influenced by Chainsaw Man*

*disclaimer I've been thinking a lot about Chainsaw Man in general
