Just watched Timothee Chalamet and Adam Sandler discuss their careers together for an hour and a half and it was so much damn fun.

Timothee is rocking that hair because he finished filming Dune Part 3 “three or four days ago.”

Wake Up Dead Man is the best Knives Out yet. Beautiful, fascinating, mysterious, and so, so funny.

Just really loved how much it gets into the weeds on faith and modern society all while being insanely entertaining and everything above. Rian is firing on all cylinders.

OMFG Vince Gilligan you’re a mad man and I love you.

#PredatorBadlands is so much fun. A grand adventure with inventive, exciting action, cool world building, lots of heart & all Predator goodies you could want. It takes the franchise in a whole new way that some may be mad at, but worked perfectly for me. Can’t wait to see again.

I wish all Marvel fans were as locked into Nate Moore (producer of Black Panther 1-2, Captain America 2-4, Eternals, etc.) progressing on Survivor this season as I am.

Here's hoping Adam Driver almost certainly violating a massive NDA to talk about the Ben Solo/Steven Soderburgh movie is the Star Wars equivalent to the Ryan Reynolds/Deadpool footage leak.

Saw three great movies on Saturday. Maaaay go see another today. The fall season is here.

Yorgos Lanthimos films are sometimes a little too weird (in the best possible way) but #Bugonia is weird in all the right ways.

It’s intense, mysterious, relevant, & fantastic. Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons are incredible in a movie that keeps you guessing till the very end. Love love loved it!

I guess I can now finally share this awesome #TronAres collectible I own.

This is the ID badge they gave us on set, meant to be for the in-world convention you briefly see in the movie. I’d hoped it would be more crucial to the plot but alas, I still think it’s a great memento.

I feel so lucky we get to see a master bring his ultimate vision to life.

@realgdt.bsky.social’s Frankenstein is such a beautiful, complex, rich film. It flipped me back and forth with its themes, performances, and heartbreaking violence.

So glad I saw it at The Egyptian too.

A bunch of wild inside baseball stuff aside, I am finally seeing my most anticipated film of 2025, Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein!

And no, I wasn’t waiting for Netflix. 35mm at the Egyptian FTW!

As recently as last week, I was writing about the brilliance and impact of the art of Drew Struzan. Today, we learn he's passed. I'm gutted.

His artistic genius and inspirational images will truly be appreciated forever. May we continue to treasure his work & the man who made it. Thank you, Drew.

Five years ago I wrote an article about the then 10 year wait between Tron Legacy and its sequel. It was partly meant to be a joke: gizmodo.com/a-brief-hist...

Five years after that, #TronAres is finally happening. Only been 15 years since the last one (and 43 years since the original.)

I’ve seen every PTA movie in the theatre since Boogie Nights, but never seen one in 70mm, full screen, blow your mind IMAX. Let’s go.

What an unforgettable September.

Several amazing LA movie events? ✅
Boston for posters at Mass MiniCon? ✅
Austin for movies at Fantastic Fest? ✅
London for a Star Wars set visit? ✅

I’m very lucky. And very tired.

I never thought I’d be able to visit a Star Wars set. Today I did.

I can’t say much but I can say I flew to London to visit the set of Ahsoka season 2.

Besides this pic, everything I saw and learned is embargoed until a later date. But today was truly a dream come true. An incredible experience.

Are you ready for some Wednesday night football?

Obsessed with Obsession. A man wishes for his crush to love him more than anything in the world, and it works. The result is one of funniest, scariest, most insane movies I’ve seen in a long, long time. It’s so simple and yet you never know what’s coming next. #FantasticFest

The first one is good but #BlackPhone2 is GREAT.

It takes everything that worked about the first movie and really leans into it. More of the sister. More gore. Part Nightmare on Elm Street, part Stranger Things, with heart and humor too. A true level up.

#FantasticFest

See you soon, Austin.

See you soon, Austin. #fantasticfest

Mass MiniCon is forcing me into a mini tour of cool Boston movie theaters and I’m not mad at it.
September 13, 2025 at 11:40 PM
The Smashing Machine is an acting showcase for The Rock and Emily Blunt, who are both fantastic. The movie itself is emotional and moving but feels a little too familiar in a lot of ways. A story we’ve seen before just through a new lens. But it’s very good all around.

The Jaws exhibit at the Academy Museum is AWESOME.

Full report tomorrow on @io9dotcom.bsky.social but here’s a small sampling of some of the screen used props on display.
