Can I please take a moment to be the person who voices how fed up they are with people arguing about whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie or not? While it clearly is a Christmas movie, I could very much not care less to hear anyone voice an opinion on either side ever again as long as I live

Exactly this! Spending one’s limited time on earth (in this case using their overlarge platform) talking shit to make oneself look cool or tasteful is so incredibly boring, and actually makes them a loser
I am embarrassed to have an opinion about what a director I’ve only seen I think 3 movies by said on a podcast but every time I’ve ever seen Matthew Lillard in a movie I’ve enjoyed it; giving props to work you like rules over being catty and rude, & people who think catty and rude is good are bores

The unspoken joke is that there are hardly any Netflix originals with enough seasons to accomplish this
“As fans rewatch or newly discover the sci-fi series ahead of its final entry premiering on Nov. 26, all four previous seasons have made the Netflix Top 10. This is the first time a Netflix series has ever had four seasons charting at once.”
‘Stranger Things’ Becomes Netflix’s First Series to Have Four Seasons in the Top 10 at Once
Season 5 of 'Stranger Things' has already boosted the series to a viewership record — before the new episodes have even been released.

Right bc he’s a foul piece of shit
NPR reported this morning that, based on their review of the #Epstein emails released yesterday, Trump’s name appeared more than 1,000 times in the document—

"I have met some very bad people, none as bad as #Trump. Not one decent cell in his body." - Jeffrey Epstein

Guillermo del Toro saying he’d rather die than use generative AI is real good shit. I feel bad that my whole thing lately is to be shouting about how much I hate that stuff, but I feel vindicated now
