Matrix Reloaded with a like a group of 15-20 high school friends, everyone felt like they got shit on afterwards.
Or smoking 2 joints with my dad before Adventureland - one of our shared favorite movies.
Also leaving Inside Llewyn Davis with a bandmate, both speechless like we were in Vietnam

Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

This isn't much of a hot take but if you're in your 30s testing out gear you should know your guitar center etiquette by then - place needs a penalty box or something

OF COURSE numbers 1 and 2 are "that thing you do" and "fever dog" from almost famous. If they weren't, the times should have immediately printed a retraction because the facts were fucking wrong

Turns out 17 years ago today I took a train after class at Temple up to Manhattan by myself for what I thought would be my only chance at ever seeing my bloody valentine. Little did I know, but don't regret a fucking thing. Here's an iphone 3g photo of it lol

Admittedly I haven't spent too much time with camp trash but this new song is a killer mix of 90s style power pop, punk energy, signature wit, and some damn tasty guitar leads. Get on board doofuses. This made me very amped on the forthcoming LP. Huzzah @franziamom.bsky.social and squad🖤

Goddamnit, how does good media keep getting Old Yeller'd still. sepinwall is a genius and treasure to criticism. Id follow him into battle any day
Alan is one of my closest friends (not just in the work-friends way), and a great critic, and a person practically everybody in TV knows, and an incredibly prolific hard worker who produces a mind-boggling quantity of good stuff. Find him continuing in those capacities at alansepinwall.ghost.io.
Rolling Stone fired Alan Sepinwall, Status’ Oliver Darcy reports. That’s probably the end of my subscription.
