If this goes thru it will accelerate Hollywood’s precipitous decline. Thousands laid off. Creatives w/fewer studios willing to bid on projects. Fewer choices of what to watch for consumers. Possibly a death blow for theatrical filmgoing. Just terrible news all around

It’s only a problem if you feel the need to respect continuity. Which the Bond Franchise absolutely DOES NOT need to do, and in fact, is what got them into this mess to begin with and was the biggest mistake the Craig era made.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Never seen Friedkin’s JADE and am on a bit of a Friedkin kick so…
Do I go theatrical (generally how I prefer to watch a film for the first time) or Director’s Cut (which always tends to be just more “stuff” but for a movie like this might actually restore censored material? I dunno?)

Just finished watching IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS for the first time.
Kind of insane that I live like 12 minutes away from Hobb's End (aka Unionville Main Street) and literally no one around here talks about the fact that fucking John Carpenter shot a movie here.

Seeing as most trilogies have ultimately ended up being anything but (thanks to poorly advised lega-sequles) what would you consider to be the best true trilogy?
For me, it's either DARK KNIGHT or BACK TO THE FUTURE.
Hit me with your hot takes!

It's always fun to get obsessive with @adamschoales.bsky.social, so I was delighted to guest on this very special episode of his SPRINGFIELD GOOGOLPLEX podcast and discuss my apparently undying connection to the original I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. Some other stuff comes up too. Enjoy!

I love a clever witticism as much as the next guy, if not more. But I can honestly say the extremely long pee gag in AUSTIN POWERS is *maybe* the funniest thing ever committed to film.

The “Apple has given up on Liquid Glass” takes are hilarious to me.
It’s the third developer beta. We’re not even at public beta 1 yet. Things are going to continue to evolve over the next two-three months.
Not to mention the people complaining it was too extreme are now saying it’s too mild.
