Movies in and about Baltimore (she/her)
A microera in fanfic that merits recognition: from like 2009-2016, one person in every M/M pairing was required to have a man bun. This crossed all fandoms and genres; when you least expected it, you’d get hit with, “[Character] gathered his long hair into a loose bun near the top of his head.”

New Discover Weekly algorithm boldly offers to introduce me to:

- Urban Outfitters playlist bands from 2010
- two songs by America (neither of which is “Ventura Highway”)
- “Waiting Room”
- some kind of Australian Post Malone

The only ones I consider truly locked in are Mulholland Drive and Mad Max; all perfect movies IMO, but my taste vacillates wildly from day to day!

As I browse the venue’s interactive seat map, relieved to know that my old ass will be able to sit down during the show, I ask myself the inevitable question: Is $600 a fair price to pay to briefly feel like it’s 2004 again?

Impossible to overstate the impact of his work on my life. A genius and a visionary.

Years of reading about cults has taught me that once your whole shtick becomes about dissolving interpersonal and/or social boundaries, no matter how magnanimous your intentions, you’re already halfway down the path to facilitating exploitation and abuse.

In my freshman year of film school, my media criticism prof showed us this video of a Sizzler promotional video, and I have never forgotten it. It’s been 7 years.

It’s been very depressing over the past couple of years to find that many movies I want to see (and would have been able to see in a local theater just a few years ago) are not being released within a 200-mi radius of my city.
Film distributors are run by some of the smartest and most dedicated people there are, but slow-burn releases with more than a two-week delay between NY/LA and smaller markets feel like an artifact of a time when word of mouth traveled more slowly and local film coverage meant more
It's plain to this Brooklynite that the releases of The Brutalist and Hard Truths (and I'm Still Here after Torres's win) are frustrating the hell out of anyone who isn't on the coasts. It doesn't seem like such a hot idea to be opening them at a crawl just as awards had made people curious.

The Substance is very French (complimentary) while Emilia Perez is very French (derogatory).

"Every Sunday, Cornelius Ticketmaster IV drives his Lincoln Navigator nine blocks to check in with his son, Prestige, a DJ and bumfight promoter who lives in a former hospital that the family bought in 2017 and turned into a 'cryptocurrency supper club.' But now, Corn says, it's not in the budget."

Watched this for the first time recently. It was incredible, but knowing all the extratextual details about Ryan and Tatum O’Neal made for an emotionally devastating viewing experience.
