#WickedForGood does a lot right by its source material, and hits many soaring heights (the last shot of this kinda perfect??). Reeeeeeally wish I could take a pair of scissors to that first half though, my god. There is at least 30 min of this that does not need to be here (including the new songs)!

MAGA: Sorry, we’re a bit confused here. What is it? YES or NO on the public executions?

After watching IF I HAD LEGS ID KICK YOU, I gotta say, insane they’re placing this in Comedy/Musical, actually demented category placement, but congratulations on your Golden Globe, Rose Byrne!

Rewatched WICKED (2024) today in For Good preparation and I still cannot understand how Powell & Schwartz got into Original Score but Zimmer was ineligible for Dune 2 when the song melodies are woven into nearly every track. Like, I gotta continue to call bullshit on the Academy for that one.

Watched the ORWELL: 2+2=5 doc today and it got me thinking

What happened to that Andy Serkis directed Seth Rogen-starring Animal Farm film that was supposed to be out this year??

Jesus Christ, do some critics have their knives out for Wicked For Good. Can’t speak to the quality since I don’t see it until Thursday but the harshness of some of these headlines, you’d think Jon Chu murdered their families.

I’ve now seen every Best Actor contender this year outside of Chalamet and despite what pundits are feeling now, it would be stupid if Joel Edgerton isn’t nominated for #TrainDreams.

Watched THE SECRET AGENT (2025) tonight. Wipe-transitions, split diopter shots, a great old-fashioned opening credits sequence. Movies should just be made like that all the time.

Imagine where we would be as a country if we knew this information back in 2016.

The inevitable South Park episode revolving around this Trump/Clinton rumor will be legendary.

It is so funny to see sites like CBM take the “Wallace Shawn as Braniac” joke rumor seriously. Some of the worst journalism you’ll ever read on that site but I would also give my left nut to see Wallace Shawn in that role.

Seeing ads all over Variety’s website for “Golden Globes FYC- B*n Sh*piro- Best Podcast” and wanting to throw up.

The conservative media civil war has been just a beauty to watch.

Looking at the box office numbers for CHRISTY and desperately trying to remind everyone that some people are just celebrities on the internet.

Watched the FIRE & WATER doc. Pretty much just a 70-minute bluray special feature compilation but man… I really love THE WAY OF WATER. That’s a fucking movie, a really special experience. Nervous for Fire & Ash if it can repeat the same feels and not fall into 3rd movie syndrome. Jim, we’re begging!
