Here's the clip of Tony Dokoupil ending tonight's broadcast by absolutely gushing over "ultimate Florida Man" Marco Rubio.

In under the wire for #moviemonday 🎥 and thought I’d share a little about a movie I saw on 35mm last week that I had been wanting to see for some time. MERRY CHRISTMAS MR. LAWRENCE

A ★★★★ review of Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983)
A sometimes abstracted, always compelling look at the tensions between passion and order, and between those with power and those without. I found the way this movie explored love, honor, duty, and sha...

Very funny that every few years we’re deluged with smug opinions about how nobody likes Avatar movies from people who can’t bear film discussion that isn’t hype-based, festival-based, or access-based, and then another one comes out and everyone likes it and it makes a mint and they act vindicated. 🤷🏻

“Cultural impact” is such a nonsense metric. Oh yes my favorite part of movies: landfills worth of tchotchkes, endless tie-in media for 12 year-olds, and boring conversations about plot by people who treat fan wikis like a personality.
Absolute Cinema, if you ask me.
What they mean is dork buzz.

Avatar has had a staggering cultural impact, in that every time one of the movies is released there is a flood of articles/comments/assertions about how little cultural impact it has had, any franchise that causes that consistent level of engagement in the chattering class is making a hell of a mark

TFW your friend group is about to get 10x more rad.
Here’s the problem with making Spider the emotional core of Avatar 3:
I hate this character. No shade to the actor but this guy sucks. He’s annoying as shit. If I showed up to a party and he was there, I’d leave the party. If he was in my friend group, I’d have to make some really hard decisions.

It was such a joy to celebrate Hanukkah with Mandy, Kathryn and their son, Gideon. As Jewish New Yorkers across our city prepare to light candles and mark the seventh night today, I wish you and your families a Hanukkah full of light and love.

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.
