Landman S2E4 review:
Tommy’s funeral monologue: devastating.
Cami’s M-Tex deal: disaster pending.
Verdict: While Tulsa King loses the plot, Landman is finally hitting top gear.
The best Sheridan show airing right now. 📺

The Bob Gray flashback? Poignant.
The Black Spot sequence? Absolutely shattering.
General Shaw thinking he can "use" Pennywise to prevent civil war is the most 1960s military hubris imaginable.
The Augury is broken. We are definitely heading back to the lair.

I think we can expect #Netflix to quickly greenlight a sycophantic T***p documentary and pay him $10m for the rights to seal the deal, no? #NetflixWarnerBrosDiscovery #USCorruption #MandA

Rewatched Inception. Still a total mind-bender. 🤯
The fantastical premise works because the Cobb/Mal dynamic actually hurts. Honestly, it makes Tenet look even worse in retrospect. Inception is the blueprint. Joint top tier with Interstellar for me.

Keanu Reeves losing his wings and becoming a chain-smoking human dishwasher who loves tacos is the specific brand of chaos I needed this holiday season. 🌮🪽
Good Fortune is actually hilarious but also... kinda devastating? Aziz really said "Eat the Rich" but make it funny.

Netflix buying WBD is the US entertainment industry officially eating itself alive. 🇺🇸🍽️ It’s the "Spotify-fication" of TV. Expect fewer jobs, safer scripts, and zero transparency. Forget Hollywood, best sci-fi and drama is coming from the UK. South Korea and Japan.

Stranger Things ends this month, but Netflix just bought its own immortality. Acquiring WBD isn’t about "synergy"—it’s about survival. They didn't need to find the next Eleven; they just bought Harry Potter, Batman, and the Losers' Club to replace her. The algorithm just won.

The Netflix/WBD deal isn't the end of James Gunn, but it is the end of the "theatrical-first" DCU. Gunn is safe for now—Netflix needs his IP. But watch the release windows: if The Batman II hits streaming in 14 days, the war for the cinema experience is lost. #DCU #Netflix

Pluribus ep 6 is brilliant. We expected a freakout over the "body parts" cliffhanger; instead, we got Diabaté shrugging at atrocities because the Vegas buffet is open.
The horror isn’t aliens; it’s how cheap dignity is. Carol is the only one with a spine, but Manousos is coming.

Normalizing Spotify Wrapped is just normalizing music theft with better graphic design. Never forget that the whole model is built on Ek’s mantra that music should be free. The major labels sold out their artists to save their own skins.

I'm convinced "The Third Movie Curse" is real. Why do franchises always faceplant on the trilogy capper? X-Men, Terminator, Godfather...
But the king of disappointing sequels remains Alien 3. As a purist, the franchise ended for me when Ripley, Newt, and Hicks entered hypersleep in Aliens.

Landman S2E3 review: Hell has a front yard. 🔥
Tommy is dealing with a deadly gas leak & Cooper's deal with the devil. Cami finds a financial black hole at M.Tex. Meanwhile, Ainsley is cluelessly cheerleading. 📣
A total clusterf--k. Just another day in paradise.

The Emperor has no clothes and I mean Tim Robinson. The Chair Company finale is actual garbage. 🗑️
Abrupt ending? Check. Fake mystery reveal? Check. A guy in a hockey mask talking about TELEKINESIS??
I’m convinced Tim is trolling us. Glad I watched this bullshit so you don’t have to. UGH.

Just watched #Bugonia and realized it’s a remake of the 2003 Korean cult classic, Save the Green Planet! 🛸 Curious about the comparison, I went back to watch the original. Verdict? Bugonia is definitely more accessible for Western audiences but stays surprisingly faithful to the spirit.

King hated Kubrick’s The Shining for lacking heart. Flanagan’s Doctor Sleep fixed this 40-year feud. By pairing Dan’s sobriety with Kubrick’s visuals, he gave King the redemption arc the original denied.
It’s not a horror sequel. It’s a thesis on forgiving your father.

2006 YouTube: "Users uploaded it, not us!" (Safe Harbor) 2024 AI: "We read it to learn!" (Fair Use) Different jargon, same growth hack. The endgame isn't a ban, it’s a payment. YouTube built Content ID; OpenAI is signing licensing deals. The "theft" becomes a "partnership" once the check clears.

South Park S28E4 just aired and I haven't recovered. Saudi Arabia sponsoring the local 5K with a strict "no roasting the royals" clause is too real.
But Pete Hegseth livestreaming a military raid on South Park while begging for likes? That’s not even satire anymore, that’s just a documentary.

Rewatching The Beatles Anthology on Disney+ (30 years? Ouch).
The original 8 eps are still pure emotional damage/nostalgia. The new Ep 9 is basically the DVD extras remastered—BTS of "Free As a Bird" and "Real Love." Essential.

When the Mind-fuck movie went mainstream. 2010 gave us Shutter Island and Inception. Both star Leo as a grieving criminal constructing a fake reality to hide from guilt. Both are sophisticated neo-noir delusions.Together they made $1B+. It proved audiences didn't want clarity: they wanted the maze.
