A thirst for knowledge, a hunger for truth, and a passion for enriching life
The cinema universe lost one of the absolute legends in filmmaking. Unafraid to push boundaries while still connecting to audiences with compelling storytelling, his impact and contributions will forever reverberate through all of cinema. May David Lynch rest in peace.

I don't think it was pain that made him so great, I think painting brought him whatever happiness he had.

It’s difficult to put into words just how much I adore and appreciate this movie.
Everyone experiences the pain of struggling with family, feeling confused about their purpose, and confronting the absurd insignificance of their tiny life within the scope of this infinite universe.
…so be kind 👀

I have some advice for young people who are understandably upset with the TikTok ban. youtu.be/agTG_tB1DL8
That a Chinese app is getting banned doesn't make China a free speech refuge, lol.

Still have a good amount of movies to get to from this past year, but I’ve been able to sit with my thoughts about Eggers’ Nosferatu and viewing the discourse around the film (being that it’s so widely talked about) I believe it to be arguably the most important film released in 2024. #Nosferatu

If your goal as a progressive commentator is to charm Dark MAGA billionaires and oligarchs and launder their image from what they are (robber barons) to working class heroes, you are hopelessly naive. They’re trying to STEAL America’s treasure not help the American people.

South Korean citizens helped lawmakers scale the National Assembly walls so they could bypass military barricades and vote against martial law.

It’s kind of incredible how long we’ve been forced to accept social media platforms that are openly hostile to their own users, suppress political content, and throttle third party links.

Remember, the whole point of activism is to translate, ultimately, into policy. And policy is determined by lawmakers, who depend on your vote to get elected.
Nothing else matters if you don't participate in the system.

Remember when George Santos valiantly returned to the Capitol on Matt Gaetz's behalf to advocate for an accused child sex predator? And then Gaetz withdrew anyway and now Santos is just on record having supported an alleged statutory rapist? Hope it was worth it!

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in.
The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers.
This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

1/ Russia played the long game and are now coming out on top of a Cold War that hasn’t truly ended, and they did so by buying and influencing our media landscape and elections, with the help of the political faction, MAGA Republicans, sympathetic to Russia. Truly devastating to see.

While everyone, including myself, is looking forward to Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu, I’m even more excited for the release of The Brutalist dir. by Brady Corbet, with only having seen the trailer, I’m anticipating it to be the Film of the Year!
