Charles Bukowski gets cable, first thing he happens to see is Eraserhead, assumes all things on cable will be that weird and wonderful, then never enjoys another program again

Shakespeare must have been strutting around town like Tony Manero after inventing the word swagger

They were operating at an unprecedented level of being Italian

The night Scorsese screened The Last Waltz, Coppola made sauce for everyone, taping a wooden spoon to a running projector and placing it over the pot so it stirred the sauce while they were gone watching the movie. When they returned, the sauce was perfect. This is the highest level of being Italian

Love this guy's mask choice in Eyes Wide Shut, zero backstory needed, you just know this is the sickest freak fuck in the room

Just learned that there was a Superman comic in 1949 where the plot is Orson Welles has been abducted by Martians, but no one believes him because of War of the Worlds lol

Laughing picturing Jack Nicholson in a movie theater watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off, just doing the Kubrick stare while everyone around him is laughing and having a good time

Tarantino desperately wanting to be an actor while having the worst screen presence of all time is so much funnier every time Scorsese strolls into a role and just nonchalantly nails it

Netflix (2018): Thanks to stock value and a head start on streaming, we have more money than anyone to finance the white whale projects of Martin Scorsese and Orson Welles, where box office receipts won't matter, only the art.

Netflix (2024): Wanna watch a YouTuber fight an old man?

Grizzled thief in a movie looking at all the pieces of a heist coming together and saying out loud to no one, “Son of a bitch, it just might work,” except it's me looking at Bluesky tonight. This really feels like the first Twitter alternative that just might work.

Testing if videos work here and figured Clooney making fun of Tarantino was a good place to start

This interview came out election week, so we all missed it, but Spielberg having no time for a 16-year-old Josh Brolin with actor brain is too funny to get lost in the shuffle

Steven Spielberg's 2001 film A.I. accurately predicted that in the future really annoying people would hold their lav mics like this
