That time I made it to the last Blockbuster in Bend, Oregon and tried to blend in with the sign. #filmsky #moviesky
finished Alex Garland's Civil War.

What was up with the marketing for this movie? It's like a horror film following war journalists and the sickness of violence, not a political warning war film.

Few people write tense scenes that can make my skin crawl the way Garland can.

Catching up on some 2025 releases, checked out the A24 film Warfare.

I appreciated the completely earnest and immersive depiction of one operation gone bad.

No score and no glorification/heroism/characterization to be found.

A tense experience is all you'll get.

#NowWatching High and Low. I have never watched this Kurosawa film 🤷 Time to correct this omission 👍

Revisited John Carpenter's Vampires. Forget the undead bloodsuckers. The misogyny is the actual scary thing.

Am I wrong or is Trump is actually really shitty at all this but so enabled he’s made it this far?

A real mastermind would have had a plan already, not summoning everyone to a red alert today.

Even if this works to get him brought to justice, I am afraid of who fills the void.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

John Woo's Bullet in the Head shook me up. So dark but heartfelt and moving. His "most personal film" and considered by many to be his best.

New podcast episode on this madcap action, crime, war, and drama film -- yes all of that -- out now.

Prince of Darkness sounds like an Ozzy Osbourne biopic but is a #horror film dear to many John Carpenter fans.

Satan spreads like bacteria and mirrors like portals to hell.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Google it, and you'll find studies that illegal immigrants pay billions in Federal, State, and local taxes.

You know who brags that he doesn't pay that many taxes?

Trump. The NYTimes has reported he paid no Federal income taxes in 11 of 18 years they could pull.

Who is the freeloader?

#NowWatching #horror movie The Mist!

Finally checking this one out after so many positive mentions out there. Yeah, the CGI is not particularly good, and I wish it was practical, but loving the movie anyhow so far.

In America we are free and have a democracy and open elections.

But we only have two realistic voting choices in who is going to win the presidency year in, year out.

And both those candidates are swayed by big money campaign contributions.

We are ruled by the elite in either outcome.

Humanity? Doesn't.

Raise your hand if your #1980s parents let you watch all kinds of violence from, say, age 7 and up but ordered you to cover your eyes the minute a breast or sex was on screen so they could fast-forward 🙃

In the Mouth of Madness's warnings about the power of media and the folly of following feel quite timely.

Is this the best John Carpenter movie from the 1990s and 2000s? New podcast episode exploring this movie below:
