Return of the Mackey
Wrong - Emma Mackey is the stage name of an upper class white female rapper, chosen solely so that she could title her debut mixtape The Mack, in a vain attempt at cred
Emma Mackey is the name of the lead of a forgotten CW show from 2012. She didn't go on to much, but an actor who played a minor character is in four huge movies this year.

I confess it probably would have been fun to see the 2002 stage adaptation of #ChittyChittyBangBang with its original West End cast that included Brian Blessed as Baron Bomburst and Richard O'Brien as the Child Catcher 🤪 (and a script that seems a lot more coherent) #TCMParty

I was really amazed when I realized that a HUGE chunk of #ChittyChittyBangBang is just a wacky story Dick Van Dyke is telling the kiddies and we're supposed to just roll with it because the actual script ran out at page 60. #TCMParty

MCU is truly entering it's "actually like the comics" era in that four trailers are the "four different holographic covers" of 2025.

Even if you don't like the movie, this is an amazing piece.
I talked to Jim Carrey, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, Rick Baker, and others (including the uncredited writers!) for an oral history of the 2000 film HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS, one of the strangest holiday movies ever made. www.vulture.com/article/how-...
How How the Grinch Stole Christmas Stole Christmas
Three-hundred wigs. Too many cigarettes. Not enough money. How an “almost anti-Christmas movie” became a holiday classic.

to have run Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar into the ground simultaneously, offset primarily by "live-action" adaptations of past hits that seem to make everyone who watches the inexplicably popular things want to vomit, is an achievement in the annals of American industry

My contribution to the Grinch discourse (full disclosure: I like the 2000 movie but understand why others hate it, nothing has changed in 25 years) is that the best Christmas/Christmas-adjacent Jim Carrey movie is Man on the Moon, I will not be taking questions at this time.

Disney deciding to go all in on Sora AI with their stable of IPs, meanwhile the creative teams on Hoppers and Hexed will watch as the money that might have gone to effective ad campaigns for both films' theatrical runs burns in a furnace.

Places that have survived immense national and cultural trauma like Argentina and Ireland have beautiful, cathartic mourning traditions and I worry we won't emerge with our own because foundational American Protestantism is mostly about ignoring pain because you have to go to work tomorrow.

To be fair, anyone who’s seen their remakes and/or Wish, or remembers the direct-to-video cheapquels era, the purge of streaming shows in May 2023, etc. knows they’ve been doing it themselves for years.
