THE KILLER in 4K was always going to be fraught; you can’t have that many candles and not be soft focus and gauzy at times. Honestly think Shout Factory did a good job. Alas, it’s Shrimp Head.

They’re making a Legend of Zelda movie.

Why? (I know the answer, but still)

Re: the Nuzzi stuff. The question “why does this young, relatively attractive woman who seems drawn to older men with power keep getting work?” answers itself.

all i've been saying for the last year is that press tours are the new movies & ppl are finally starting to write about it. press tour is the release. everyone is cutting the hair on mannequins, watching their old shit, or testing how well they know their co-stars. none of it gets ppl to the theater

I feel like this image sums up a whole section of British comedies.

Because CGI has become the solution to every problem, I wonder if the last 20 years of Superhero movies would be better or worse if they didn’t have computers. Muppets require an audience buy in, CG doesn’t in the same way. They let dull people take it seriously without questioning the fantastical.

One of the places I work has an ASTEROID CITY poster up and so every couple of days I think “Take me down to… STOP IT, BRAIN.”

You know, if most posters don’t credit their actors, and most marketing doesn’t really help or hurt box office, then there’s really no point to hiring famous actors to be voice talents in animated movies.

Was thinking about TWILIGHT and FIFTY SHADES and how they’re about monsters who aren’t monsters and it feels of the moment.

There’s this fucking breathtaking 10/10 scene in HOW DO YOU KNOW, and the thing is artists want to make the new croissant, and computers and executives want a new croissant and there’s a difference. and we’re living in the lack of billionaires imagination and it sucks.

I love romantic comedies where there’s a scene where a man is like “lady… I wan ‘t thinking about putting my penis in your mouth or vagina or anus, because I care about you. Seriously, though. Wasn’t thinking about your holes. Any of them. Not ever your ear holes.”

I want to support struggling journalists. If one of them sets up a gofundme where the whole point is to badger Mike Johnson about how he’s going to hell for supporting Trump and how all of his policies are anti-Jesus, let me know, cause I will give to that.

Eddie Murphy said he was offered WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT? It is hard to imagine that version of the movie because of the racial politics that would be introduced.

Was talking with a neighbor while at TJ’s about how the problem with sociopaths is that there’s a percentage of people who see someone get away with being a sociopath and get jealous. A stranger interjected. I retorted “we’ll be talking about Wittgenstein shortly if that’s too much.”

Just got disqualified from the dad jokes Olympics for saying it’s so wet in LA right now you’d think Taylor Swift just announced she’s a lesbian. And it’s on account of my dismount? No triple lindy for them then.

Though I was joking about it recently, the fact that famous Conservative women seem to want to be bottomed isn’t a sexual observation. Their obvious subservience is part of the gig.

Onion article: I NEED YOU TO KNOW THAT EVERY TIME I REFERENCE TRUMP SWALLOWING GALLONS OF SEMEN IT’S NOT HOMOPHOBIC.

Has someone done Trump with THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY hair yet?

Re: Trump/Clinton. I think part of the reason LGBTQA issues have become such a sticking point in our culture is a lot of people who identify as straight have had gay sex and don’t think they are gay for it and get super mad at the idea of it. “Just because I gave my friend a hand job with my mouth…”

One of the fascinating things about A BETTER TOMORROW - similar to A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS, but different - is that it’s not a good movie. It’s just that it’s there. It’s like watching Paul figure out “Get Back” outta thin air. It’s just 90 minutes of figuring it out for the five minutes.

If speaking accurately about someone offends them then keep doing it. Pedophile defender Megyn Kelly, pedophile defender Allan Dershowitz, etc.

It’s weird. Sometimes, to become a movie star, all it takes is an iconic image.
