@variety.com just announced @filmbot.bsky.social's “Lost Films of COVID” a run of 2020-21 movies that missed their shot at the big screen. I've harbored a pipe dream of creating the PandemiFest, a touring fest of horror films lost to COVID. Which films would I put on the cyclorama? Here's my top 20!

On the @junkfilterpod.bsky.social patreon feed, returning guest Mike Mekus wanted to talk about Brian De Palma's HI, MOM! with me... a 1970 satire that predicted incels, computer dating and the Dimes Square scene while introducing us to Robert De Niro! Fun show!

Theory that officers are actually just three kids in an officer suit trying to sneak into an R rated movie
The depositions from the batshit CBP and ICE officials in Chicago have been unsealed. Here's how Russ Hott denied actually knowing anything about one of the weirder claims they made: that a protestor had ripped someone's beard off.

"In an age where queerness in cinema is a bit more accepted, Kier’s proud embrace of his queerness as outsiderness, whether as a mad scientist, a lonely hustler, or even a vampire, makes him feel like a pioneer."

For @ebertvoices.bsky.social I paid tribute to Udo:

THE 4:30 MOVIE isn't amazing but it's charming in that Kevin Smith way (ymmv) and it simultaneously references Martha Coolidge and TURK 182 so it scratched a certain itch nicely

Mastercard is bleeding, get in there. Make some calls. Get some cool family members in on it over thanksgiving
The lines are getting clogged from calls and Mastercard is feeling very pressured, they're looking into how to act in response. They're collecting information on callers to have a better understanding of who is calling in re the censorship issue

I do appreciate the discourse turning to "y'know let's talk ourselves out of thinking the only actively good Star Wars movie made after 1981 is actually good" but also I'm not sure it's necessary

If you’ve never seen THE HARDER THEY COME, it’s a low budget folk hero story starring Jimmy Cliff, and it’s authentic and charming and scrappy. Then in the middle of the movie, Cliff’s character walks into a recording studio and just lays down an all-timer on camera. youtu.be/FHAbj1pIT4g?...
