Watching the 2004 teenage classic #Sleepover and can't help but notice:
1) That neighborhood is so white, they have private security instead of police;
2) Somehow Evan Peters has been playing a teenager for over a decade;
3) There are so many better options here to have a crush on than Steve.

TIL that Kyrgyzstan has made its own #Saw movie.
Like, not just something with a vaguely similar concept. A straight-up unlicensed Saw spin-off with the exact same premise and visual language, from color grading to camera movement to props.
I kinda want to see it.

I genuinely don't understand the confusion around the Mando movie.
Who is he fighting in the trailer? Imperials, thugs and some gladiator monsters. Who is he working with? New Republic. Who's on the poster? The Hutts and AT-ATs.
What else do you need to know that's not in the official logline?

I feel like your response to this is mostly contingent on expectations.
If you spent weeks hyping over getting an epic new trailer, sure, you'd feel let down. I was.
But if you're casual TV dad who never knew this was coming, you'd say: "Ha, it's a Bud commercial, but with Baby Yoda. Pretty cool!"

They wanted an embodiment of toxic masculinity and immediately thought of Jared Leto.
Skeletor is "the embodiment of toxic masculinity" in Masters of the Universe, says director Travis Knight.
“[Jared Leto] wanted to swing for the fences,” the director tells Empire. “We landed on something that I’m really happy with.”

I love how George Lucas invented a whole-ass fictional history for the Skywalker Ranch to explain his design ideas to the architects.

Probably the most technically accomplished film Ron Howard ever made — and we're talking about the guy who did Apollo 13!
Never fails to amaze me how no one died on that set. Although they did almost burn Scott Glenn's balls off!

Last year I've had a great time playing Fate of Atlantis (1993) and Crazy Taxi (1999) for the first time. I also frequently distract myself with a round or two of Dr. Mario (1990).
Have some respect for your own work, Bruce!

"Go back and play Morrowind and tell me that’s the game you want to play again," said Bruce Nesmith, who worked for Bethesda for over 17 years, adding that playing The Elder Scrolls 3 "would not stand the test of time." https://bit.ly/4q4GoKh

Went down a random rabbit hole today, trying to figure out when they showed the very first Star Wars footage in IMAX.
Most likely, it's this 1996 documentary by Ben Burtt, who not only chronicled the making of Special Editions, but recreated the famous ANH opening.

Never forget that the reason they are so convinced you’re all getting paid is that they are all getting paid.
The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.

If you zoom in all the way to the back case, on the third shelf from the top you'll see Russian editions of Star Wars books from Terra Fantastica Publishing (2000-2010).

So, are we ready to call Ryan Coogler one of today's greatest filmmakers?
