Anyone who’s seen KEEPER: dm me? I’m 95% confident in my read on what the “mystery” is that Neon wants to “preserve” by denying swaths of critics access to screenings (while also allowing talent interviews to outlets like EW, and putting pull quotes from GDT and James Wan on the promo materials).

My three-year-old was reading the Epstein emails when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why is the nice orange man joking with the sex offender on his computer?" And when I told her "Because women made it impossible to joke in the workplace," she started crying.

To put the state of the US in gaming terms:
Most of us are playing a buggy, overtuned survival horror game, while a select few can afford the DLC that turns it into a cozy farming sim with the sole objective of getting the highest score you can.

Bleating, braying, cacophonous hatred doesn’t make a well-knit platform; it’s bound to come undone at one time or another, and likely sooner than not if another party presents a candidate who’s capable of making a strong, sincere stitch.
basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

For @time.com, I spoke with Radu Jude about his new film, DRACULA, aka "the AI Dracula movie with all the flying dicks in it." His take on AI invests in nuance; I suspect it'll give a whole lot of people fits. Naturally, I love it, for as much as I hate AI.
How a New Dracula Movie Became a Focal Point in the Debate Over AI in Film
Radu Jude's nearly three-hour Dracula movie relied on AI out of necessity, and the results are generating responses from all sides of the debate over AI in movies.
