Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.

Took the week off so I forgot to post a #moviemonday. But it’s Thanksgiving week, which means I’m gonna post about the movie I watch every year around this time.

A ★★★★★ review of Rocky (1976)
Around Thanksgiving every year I watch Rocky. It’s about the most perfect alchemical mixture of sentimentality and filmmaking and raw talent that exists, and the older I get the harder it hits. So goo...

It’s time (on-time) for another #moviemonday where I talk about movies I’ve seen and if you read it and decide to chime in, even better. I rewatched the first Zatoichi film and plan to make my way through the rest of them soon.

Day late for #moviemonday but it’s my thing and nobody pays attention to me on this app anyway, so who cares.
I got that incredible Wes Anderson criterion set and I’ve been breaking it in. THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS!

In under the wire for #moviemonday, and I figured I’d wrap up Spooky Season with M. Night Shyamalan’s THE VISIT.
This is the movie that announced his return from Director’s Jail and the beginning of his excellent self-financed era.

Hold up. Lemme get this straight…
Amazon fully owns MGM/their catalog.
Amazon streams all their stuff through Prime.
At some point MGM launched a monthly subscription service. Called MGM+
You can still subscribe to this app.

What the hell are you paying for? The logo? How is this allowed?

Another spooky #moviemonday, another movie I think everyone rates a bit too low. This time it’s Romero’s much-meh’d LAND OF THE DEAD

Under the wire this #moviemonday to talk about a movie I always liked, but realized after my most recent viewing is an all-time banger. @schwarzenegger.bsky.social’s END OF DAYS. I’ve always been a Hyams guy, but the new 4k on this really excels. Excellent spooky season action film. boxd.it/bp4t7r

Today I made my first ever trip to Austin Film Society. I’ve wanted to go for ages and finally got the chance with a showing of John Woo’s THE KILLER, which I also hadn’t seen. It’s hard to oversell how incredible THE KILLER was but it was hampered by a really obnoxious cackling audience. Bummer.

A happy spooky #moviemonday to you all. This week I thought I would highlight YET ANOTHER late period John Carpenter movie people erroneously derided to me for years, until I watched it and realized it actually cooks and they were wrong.

Spooky Szn begins (it never ended) and I return from the grave for #moviemonday to talk about one of my favorites, an under appreciated gem from the greatest himself, John Carpenter:

It is #moviemonday once again, and I thought I’d share a movie that everyone but me was already ahead of the curve on. Late to the party with the absolutely room temp take that Martin Scorsese makes masterpieces

NEW: ChatGPT is causing chaos in marriages, as one spouse becomes deeply fixated on AI therapy/advice/spiritual wisdom — alienating the other spouse and, often, resulting in divorce.

In some cases, ChatGPT-enmeshed spouses are using the tech to bully their partners.
