Celluloid in my blood, film in my heart. Sometimes I think thoughts.
Seen A Complete Unknown twice now and utterly speechless with it. I can't even mince it into words on how much I'm completely head over heels with it. One of the greatest movies of the 21st century.

Reminder that Spyglass, the studio behind this film, fired Melissa Barrera for speaking out against genocide.

They are doing everything they can to make you forget that.

Do not give Scream 7 any of your money.
Matthew Lillard will return as Stu Macher in #Scream7

Well done for making it to the end of January.

Stop whatever you're doing and read a book to reward yourself.

If you don't have a book, then buy one from an indie bookshop, that way you'll be making TWO people happy.

As much as I love A Complete Unknown and Dune getting nominations, fuck them. Seriously, fuck the Academy.
Margaret Qualley was snubbed at the #Oscars  for her performance in ‘The Substance.’

A Complete Unknown: Lived up to all the excitement and praise and somehow pulled me in deeper than I ever thought it would. I laughed, smiled, cried, everything. Gorgeous on both a narrative and technical level. One of my favourites of the decade already.

Until Dawn trailer: I haven't even played the game, but my god. This looks laughably horrible.

Nosferatu: Gorgeous vistas and wondrous performances, though it was missing something that felt.. crucial, and thus prevents it from a modern-day masterpiece.

I watched Gremlins 2 yesterday and legitimately think it’s the silliest movie I’ve ever seen (complementary)

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning
What's your movie subtitle for 2025? The Year of Living Dangerously? Night of the Zombies? Pulp Fiction? A Few Good Men?

Indulge me with a little silliness.

Nosferatu isn't out until January 1 in the UK, so please no spoilers for a remake of a movie that came out in 1922 that I have seen, based on a book that came out in 1897 that I have read. thanks

A cinematic masterpiece.

Hearing Sonic 3 is tonally the bleakest in the trilogy. Hoping they go for a more story driven narrative this time.

*male* being the important word there because a man being an asshole = funny. A woman being an asshole = bitch.

Absolute bullshit. Hans' score in this movie was absolutely divine. Such a shame.
Hans Zimmer’s score for ‘DUNE 2’ has been officially disqualified from the Oscars.

It is also not eligible for other award ceremonies like the BAFTAs
