“The Beautiful Ones” musical number in “Purple Rain” is one of my favorite sequences in any movie.

Watching it in Dolby Cinema was a beautiful experience.

I think Werner Herzog’s remake was perfect and of course I love Bram Stoker’s Dracula. They’re two of my favorite movies ever. While I thought it was well made, this didn’t reach the heights of those films for me, unfortunately.

This year’s additions to the National Film Registry are fucking nuts. A beautifully diverse group of films.

One of my favorites. Criminally underrated and also, I just realized it’s an official remake of All About Eve

Took a little while, but finally finished migration. Deleted all tweets/replies/likes (after moving most of them here), unfollowed all & protected the account. I'll login occasionally to keep the handle and post the odd link to Bluesky to keep it from going dormant. Later, X. #bye

b) well, fuck
c) wait that part was real good
d) wait no that part sucks
e) I am a god of this place
f) the fuck is this shit, who do I think I am, why am I here
g) oh man I just figured it all out
h) mistakes were made
I) existential dread

Next time you have an idea that seems too crazy, just remember that John Woo once walked into an office and said "I wanna make a movie where Nick Cage plays John Travolta playing Nick Cage, and John Travolta plays Nick Cage playing John Travolta," and someone wrote him a check for 80 million dollars

She should have won an Oscar for this movie.

Sharon Stone is on another level in this one. People villainize her character but I think she’s a tragic figure. She’s trapped in this marriage and she doesn’t have a lot of options in the cutthroat world of pimps and hustlers in Vegas. I feel sorry for her more than anything.
