I saw Tom Stoppard's Arcadia for the first time at the @oldvictheatre.bsky.social last night, and was completely bowled over by the play and by the production. It left me spinning with excitement. I rushed to see if I could buy tickets to see it again before I leave London (unfortunately I can't).

SEND HELP doesn't come out until February where I am (London), but you better believe I bought 4DX 3D tickets for opening day! Sam Raimi spraying blood on a beach? Count me in.

I'm somewhat baffled by the trend of using distracting VFX to smooth the cheeks and often foreheads of actors in movies that are otherwise trying to capture "realism" on camera.

This is a separate issue to the egregious injection based attempts to do a similar thing.

If you subscribe to this blocker on Bluesky it will hide or block screenshots from other social media platforms. Lots of granular settings. It makes Bluesky MUCH more enjoyable. bsky.app/profile/xblo...

Just a couple more days to watch IT ENDS on the Letterboxd Video Store! If you miss it now, you’ll have to wait until the NEON release later this year.

RIP Isiah Whitlock Jr. One of my fav actors to work with, and I'm so bummed that I didn't get to work with him more. I hoped we'd get him in Blindspotting if we had more seasons. I cherish the Isiah Whitlock Jr. talking sheeeeeeeeeit bobblehead he gave me when we finished shooting Corporate Animals.

Even if the only cultural impact AVATAR had was the continual rehashing of the "does AVATAR have a cultural impact" argument, it would still count as massive cultural impact. Every headline, every article, every post, every reply on this topic for 16 years and counting disproves the nonsense thesis.

Worth seeing in a theater if you're in NYC! A great movie, and it has some jawdropping big-screen cinematography by the master Gordon Willis.
NYC: Sun. Dec 28, at 7 pm, I'll be at the Paris Theater (@paristheaternyc.bsky.social). introducing one of my favorite films, The eerie conspiracy thriller The Parallax View. Tickets here:

Rewatching GREMLINS and on top of it being a great movie, it makes me want to make an on-the-Universal-backlot small town movie so badly. I think there would be so much goodwill towards a movie made this way in 2026.

I strongly recommend seeing this in theaters while you still can! I’m sure it’s a perfectly lovely home experience, but it is such a fun big audience movie!
#WakeUpDeadMan is now on Netflix, and is still in 500 theaters nationwide this week! See my pinned post for a theater finder link. ⏰💀🪦🍿🎟️

I know there is a lot of Media News today, but I hope it doesn’t get lost in the noise that @letterboxd.social is launching a Video Store by profiling unreleased gems (including IT ENDS!) and rare bangers. Some companies love movies, and it shows. So excited to be a small part of this!
💥 Letterboxd Video Store launches December 10 (ET). 👀

Announcing our Unreleased Gems shelf: rent these must-see films you can’t watch anywhere else. Available for a limited time only, through January 2. Regions and prices vary by title.

Netflix buying Warner Brothers is the day that Netflix officially becomes the establishment. It is both the day of their ascendancy and also the day that Netflix admits that they are now the incumbent power yearning to be disrupted by whatever comes next.

Many years ago @drewmcweeny.com encouraged me to attend a rare public screening of @thejoedante.bsky.social's THE MOVIE ORGY and it was honestly one of my favorite theatrical experiences of all time. A legendary and massively influential mashup movie, decades ahead of its time.
***ANNOUNCEMENT***

Now available to order on the @vinsyn.bsky.social website on Blu-ray in the US from #OCNDistribution #PartnerLabel #AGFA: #TheMovieOrgy (1968)!

THE MOVIE ORGY is a legendary found footage triumph from Joe Dante—one of genre cinema's most significant masterminds.

I'm happy to CG some vomit wranglers into both seasons of Blindspotting if HBO Max wants to add our show to its streaming platform.
