Why does @simonmayo.bsky.social keep saying that Apple TV+ is now just Apple TV? It’s not. These are two separate services. Confusing? Yes. But both are still there.

- Alex Garland does war again, and it’s not fun.
- Pamela Anderson impresses but it’s so sad
- A classic rewatch with Child 1 and it’s still sooo good

Films on planes. Here’s the tail end of it:

- a masterclass on loneliness and isolation
- Viola Davis goes John McClane on douchey thieves
- Black Widow rewatch mostly for Florence & David
- some dull nonsense with lots of gratuitous explosions.

An average (if solid-ish week) culminating in brilliance with I’m Still Here - probably the best film of the Best Pictures nominees this year. Absolutely loved it. #FilmSky

I almost didn’t finish Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. The rest was either fab or at least good fun

A super hero movie that manages to be an allegory for depression, but also fun and entertaining. And the best MCU entry in a while (certainly of Phase 5). Pugh carries most of the emotional load but is also a great duo with David Harbour who gets most of the laughs. Bring on Phase 6! #FilmSky

All rewatches!
The week I learned that Sinners is still fab and the joy of (re)watching My Fair Lady in a packed theater should not be underestimated. ❤️

What a joy to rewatch this masterpiece at the Stanford Theater downtown Palo Alto tonight with a full, engaged and responsive audience - and a live organist playing the movie’s score before the film and during intermission. I had forgotten how great, delightful and funny this movie was! #FilmSky

I’m a big Almodovar fan and this didn’t work for me. His first English language movie lacks cohesion and emotion and is plagued by woody dialogue and borderline bad performances. And those are great actors!!! What on Earth happened, Pablo? #FilmSky

Based on a play and it shows, as it feels very theatrical. It’s kind of ok as it’s pretty much a farce but the young leads were unfortunately underwhelming and without the serious talent on display by the rest of the cast, this would have been a bit of a disaster. A bit meh overall. #FilmSky

Happy Friday! 2 cinema outings this past week, so not a bad week.

Enjoyed the 20th anniversary re-release in the cinema. My favorite Joe Wright film and my favorite P&P adaptation. Perfect from beginning to end - aside from that weird unnecessary ending that apparently was stuck on for the US release for no good reason. #FilmSky
