Being exposed to the Francaise Cinematheque in Paris has really further sullied my opinion of the TIFF Cinematheque.

People think AI images of Hollywood sign burning are real
AI generated slop is tricking people into thinking an already devastating series of wildfires in Los Angeles are even worse than they are — and using it to score political points.

how can anyone of reasonable intelligence imagine that they are speaking for--literally--billons of people whom they don't know, have never met & will never meet? "no child is born in the wrong body"?--how dare deny the reality of others because it is not your own & because it upsets you?

Admire the craft on display in Nosferatu but wow does the whole thing feel tired and unimaginative by the end of it.

It’s crazy how sold out this IMAX screening of Nosferatu is. Did not expect this.

a bit baffled by negative reviews of Babygirl complaining about its lack of edge relative to older erotic thrillers
like look, i know we all love erotic thrillers, but most of them are actually kind of bad, reactionary, and often boring outside the sex scenes
this movie's light and fun!

I came so close to buying a PS5 as a blu-ray player but crisis averted. Just getting a Sony 4K player. I don’t game, it would just be such a waste on me. Pus, an ugly fucking console.
