Maximum effort! On this week’s The Good, The Bad, and The What #podcast, listen to us discuss three mid-to-late aughts high-octane action films with CRANK (2006), SHOOT ‘EM UP (2007), and WANTED (2008). Very much of their era. Fun and cringe in equal measure! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Have to credit my podcast co-host for this observation, but also a deep cut, he looks like this guy from Lumet’s PRINCE OF THE CITY in nearly every photo.

I was looking at JustWatch to see if a film I’m looking to program early next year was streaming anywhere, and noticed that the app now includes where to purchase the films on disc. I don’t want to oversell it, but this feels like a big win for physical media.

Could we please have an opposition party who actually opposes this fascistic administration instead of just lobbing empty-gesture tweets and letters? Democracy is literally on the line here.

Incredible nighttime view from the System of a Down/Deftones show at Rogers Stadium last night. Like TIFF last year, I feel very lucky this overlapped with a work trip. Between this, T2 on 35mm at the Revue, and the annual visit to Vinegar Syndrome, I’m back home from Toronto with a full heart.
