We watched BABY BOOM *a lot* growing up. So I was shocked to see the goofy woman in other work like ANNIE HALL, THE GODFATHER movies, LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR, and more.

Diane Keaton was an incredible talent who always found ways to highlight the humanity of her characters. So it goes.

I wish I was surprised that Deadline claims it asked questions that were actually asked by me and other journalists at this James Gunn press conference. No one from Deadline even *submitted questions* for it (and I know, because I moderated). This is just brazen and sad.

John Woo's Face/Off was cool. Easily the action maestro's best English language film. But you know what would've made it cooler? Instead of a cop and a criminal swapping faces, it's about a girl buying a new face with the help of her friends on bluesky!! that girl is me btw.

#ICYMI sharing my recently published piece via Fangoria on the fantastic ALAN WAKE 2 and how it ties into the theory of Hyperstition, where fictions can bring themselves into reality.

FANGORIA @fangoria.bsky.social · 4d

In ALAN WAKE 2, players are at times both creator and victim, exploring the concept of “Hyperstition” in a horrifying way, making this perfect for a Halloween season playthrough.

Please read/repost my review of ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, which I think is one of the year's best films:
