And the last movie from yesterday, a thoroughly whelming British horror anthology. #Letterboxd #FilmSky #MovieSky
A ★★½ review of Asylum (1972)
A rather basic and fairly under-cooked horror anthology movie, albeit with an interesting framing story. You'd think that being written by Robert Bloch, the guy who wrote Psycho, would give this some ...

Second movie is a powerful reminder of how good journalism can be when applied right. We need more of this these days. #Letterboxd #FilmSky #MovieSky
A ★★★★★ review of Spotlight (2015)
Spotlight is not a complicated movie. It is, in fact, a shockingly basic journalism movie. A team of reporters cracking a case, tracking down leads, conducting interviews, gathering and documented evi...

Watched a trio of movies on Friday and Saturday, and just now getting to posting them. First, finally got around to seeing an 80's classic, and it was just fine. #Letterboxd #FilmSky #MovieSky
A ★★★ review of Splash (1984)
Watching the John Candy documentary reminded me that this movie existed. I'd never seen it, and I figured it was time I go back and rectify it. It has Tom Hanks! John Candy! It's considered a classic ...

A smugly ignorant hipster indie drama,
An amusing 80's wacky comedy,
A movie I never thought I'd enjoy,
And a bland, inoffensive silent Hitchcock movie.

Every time I see a mention of Davos on here, my brain wants to read it as Davros, and then I wonder why Doctor Who and the Daleks are getting so much chatter.

Aphex Twin’s Analord. 3 1/2 hours long. Less repetition that way.
If someone put $1,000,000 on the table and said you had to listen to one album on repeat for 48 hours straight…
what album are you risking your sanity for?

And if you’re this narrow-minded, to assume everyone in the country agrees with the government, you’re just as bad as you think your opposition is. All of Israel is not Netanyahu. All of Russia is not Putin. And all of the US is not Trump. Fuck off with this shit.

Like most of Hitchcock's silent era (and much of his early talkies, too), Champagne is a rather uncomplicated movie that does the two things he liked to do a lot in those day: take a swipe at the rich...

The Bills’ loss was a convergence of many failures. But there is one constant in all of the Bills’ post-season woes:
Sean McDermott waits too long to make adjustments. He digs himself a hole for an entire half.
He is not the coach to win a Super Bowl. It’s time for him to go.

A ★★½ review of Lawrence of Arabia (1962)
This was fine. I'm not going to nitpick its historical accuracy or lack thereof (from what I've read, it's not very). I'm not going to harp on it for whitewashing Arab roles with white people (it's a ...
