The first 94% of THE FABELMANS is insufferable but the last three scenes - and the final camera tilt - are perfect (and should’ve been released as a short film).

#NowWatching - TRON: Ares
Time to watch this Sci-Fi extravaganza that does not have a problematic actor in the lead role.

Remember how Nolan used to always be accused of being a sexless filmmaker, but then as soon as he put nudity in his film, people said it was “not needed”.

This confirms my long-held belief that love does not exist whatsoever.
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have separated after 19 years, TMZ reports.

Either I'm gonna finish this assignment, or it's gonna finish me. More likely the latter at this point.

Post-OBAA ranking. I've included his music videos and documentary. The Top 5 are all 5-star masterpieces. Even his worst film is still a pass for me. PTA just can't miss!

You know what shits me off about Kimmel getting suspended? He called out a group of people who only exist in America. When MAGA practice transphobia or racism or antisemitism, they are discriminating groups of people who exist beyond the borders of America. That’s the difference.

For any of my US followers, I would really recommend checking out Carnal Vessels. I may be biased because my roommate and best friend produced it. But it's genuinely really funny and really sexy. I promise you'll have a good time with it! Also, it's on Tubi, so it's free!

I'm nearly finished the book. There's nothing sexy contained within its pages. It's about generational cycles of abuse. It's clear to me that Emerald Fennell wants to make Bridgerton instead. It's gonna be a trainwreck, and I'm gonna be there opening weekend to witness it run off the tracks.
Watch the teaser trailer for Emerald Fennell's adaptation of Wuthering Heights starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi 🥀

#TheConjuringLastRites will only land if you already have an investment in this franchise. Luckily, I do, thanks to Farmiga and Wilson’s endearing presence that makes it worth staying for. Chaves isn’t Wan, but it's clear he's improved over the last film in crafting a spooky final chapter.

You need a filmmaker whose films fuck to direct Bond. I love Villeneuve’s films, but his films do not fuck. They are stark and grey and not fun.
Denis Villeneuve is set to direct the next James Bond film.

As someone who was somewhat let down by 28 YEARS LATER, the least of the movie’s problems stem from how it ends. You’re a very boring person if you’re not at the least bit curious to know where it goes in the sequel.

This looks dreadful. The dialogue is maudlin tripe, and you can feel the music trying to make up for how visually unimpressive it looks. Legit, one of the worst trailers I have ever seen.

There’s just too much going on this week. On top of all my due assessment and the leftover sting of the shitshow of last week, my grandfather just passed away. I really hope I can get through this week without completely losing it.

This would be great news if there were actually more IMAX cinemas that could project the full 1.43:1 aspect ratio instead of 1.90.
#FantasticFour IMAX details 🎥
• Second MCU film to feature scenes shot in the full 1.43:1 aspect ratio
• Also includes sequences shot on 16mm and 35mm film
